Nessa Kessinger
Nessa Kessinger started shooting weddings after graduating from Shepherd University with a degree in fine art. She often finds herself teaching clients about the nuances of natural light—even convincing them that they won’t regret a sunrise photo shoot. “It takes some serious trust to get up at 4 a.m. for photos!” she says. “A huge selling point is that the streets are always empty, parks are abandoned and fog hangs low on the ground for added layers of texture in the background.” While Kessinger doesn’t shy away from dramatic shadows, her mark may be best seen in the natural glows of color.
