ABOUT ME

My name is Jill and I an the owner and photographer at Jillian Wilhelm Photography. I have been capturing memories for 12 years and run my photograph studio full time. I photography weddings, engagements, newborns, maternity, children and families. I started my journey in photography twelve years ago while I was still working in veterinary medicine. I began taking pictures of my pets and then my friends children, and before I knew it I had a full fledged business. I made the leap into full time after a life changing moment when my husband was involved in a terrible car accident. He had a 50,000 lb steel coil fall off a semi truck onto his car. It absolutely gave us a realization that life is short and can change in an instant, so we decided to start living our life how we really wanted to. We desperately wanted to see the world and my job prevented us from travelling extensively so I quit my job, opened up the studio full time and never looked back! We are so happy and blessed with the life we have built. So here are a few fun facts about me
