Oh, hi!

 

Jamie (Olmstead, of course) here! The face behind the camera. I treat my clients like family, so it's time to get personal.

 

 

A little bit about me...

 

 


I grew up on a farm in the small town of Wellsville, Ohio, and graduated in 2009. I then went on to receive my Bachelor's in Photography at Youngstown State University. Since then, I've been photographing any and every thing! I lived in Pittsburgh, PA, for three years, but once a small town girl, always a small town girl. I moved to Lowellville, Ohio about three years ago to be with my now fiancé. Yes, I will be in front of the camera for a change in August 2024 and I CANNOT WAIT!!! My fiancé Luke and I have a niece and nephew in Pittsburgh, a nephew in Cleveland, and most of my family is still near Wellsville, so I'm constantly back and forth between those areas. While I live near Youngstown, traveling to other areas is clearly not a problem for me. :) Luke and I also have a cat (Albus) and a dog (Momo) that we're slightly obsessed with.


Other things I love: Ohio State, college football in general, my family and friends, the fiancé, Harry Potter, anything Marvel, music, guitar, owls, and any holiday really (though I do have a soft spot for St. Patrick's Day). If you play Irish music at your wedding, you will definitely see me on the dance floor (camera in hand). I've been known to get in the middle of the dance floor with my camera regardless because weddings are all about having FUN!


I am very personable and tend to get silly quite a bit, so don't worry if you're nervous to be in front of the camera or don't know how to pose. I got you!!!


Check out my packages and FAQs here for some common photo-related questions I receive. If you have any additional questions for me, don't hesitate to reach out. I promise that photographers are not scary, and I am an open book!



 

welcome to my world!
