About Us
At Snap a Smile Carlisle, we specialize in capturing family, baby, and pet memories. We also cover engagements, weddings and events. Our friendly staff ensures that your photography experience is friendly, fun and fully customised to what your family would like.
Our company morals and values are aimed at capturing special family moments without the bank-breaking prices.
My name is Jess, I am a single mum to a one year old little daughter & two four legged pooches and I don't believe we should need "re-mortgage the house" prices for someone to snap our family memories which is why I have made this leap to start Snap a Smile to be able to support other families in creating life long memories.
We launched officially on 1st July 2025. We are fully insured.
Please feel free to get in touch with ANY enquires and we will be more than happy to put together bespoke packages.
We look forward to snapping your family smiles very soon

We had a wonderful experience with Jess taking natural photos in Britts park. She was incredible with our daughter and our son, can’t thank her enough. She took beautiful photos which I will treasure forever we loved how relaxed the whole experience was and how comfortable we all felt. I will always remember this incredible experience thank you Jess. Will definitely recommend her she is amazing!

would recommend her to anyone. thank you soo much

Paulina, Family Shoot
Jess done a mini Mother’s Day photo shoot for us and I couldn’t be more grateful for the lovely photos she managed to capture of Noah. She made us feel very comfortable and it was just a natural experience of me and my son playing rather than forced poses. Loved it and would highly recommend

Gina, Wedding
Jess was our wedding photographer for our Christmas wedding, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She went above and beyond throughout the entire day. At one point she was even helping with my little niece’s hair, which perfectly sums up the kind of person she is—calm, caring, helpful and completely invested in making the day run smoothly.
She was amazing with the children and equally great with our dogs (we had four at the wedding, so it was definitely a bit chaotic at times!). She handled everything with patience and good humour, making sure everyone, including the four-legged guests, was part of the day and the photos.
Jess was incredibly professional and clearly knows exactly what she’s doing. She made sure we got all the photos we wanted while also capturing lots of beautiful, natural moments we didn’t even realise were happening. She had a great eye for working with the wind, the light and the angles, and she really knew how to make the most of the stunning backdrop we were lucky to have.
What we loved most was how comfortable she made everyone feel. She put people at ease straight away, so even those who aren’t used to being in front of a camera felt relaxed and natural. The photos reflect that—authentic, genuine moments rather than anything overly staged or pretentious. That said, if you want more artistic or stylised shots, Jess absolutely has the talent for that too.
If you’re looking for someone who is professional, warm and incredibly skilled at capturing the real atmosphere of your day, we can’t recommend Jess highly enough

Ellie,Wedding
I only found Jessica about 3 weeks before our wedding after a bit of a panic that we had no one to photograph my now husband leaving his hotel, his car arriving and him arriving at the church etc, from the first message everything was just made so easy! I let Jessica know what we wanted (briefly) and left her to it, in fact I didn’t even realise she was still at the church until my granddaughter fell and she jumped into action! The images she had delivered are second to none and she captured so much much than we were expecting! I am beyond thrilled with what we have received and can not thank Jessica enough. This lady is worth her weight in gold and if you are considering her for your wedding … GO FOR IT! You will definitely not be disappointed!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH

Debbie, Wedding
Jessica is absolutely fantastic at her job. Had a pre wedding get together and talked through what we wanted. Wedding day she was wonderful. Captured every emotion there is in her photos. I absolutely loved my wedding pics. Communication throughout was brilliant. Would highly recommend.
