Hi, I’m Jaden, the heart behind Light Reclaimed.


I’m a small-town Texas girl, a wife to my best friend, and a mama to three. I’m a photographer who believes in the beauty of natural light, honest moments, and the quiet in-betweens that tell the real story.


But Light Reclaimed isn’t just about photography — it’s about me, too.


For years, I dimmed my own light. I chased what I thought I should do instead of what I was created for. I put art on the back burner. I tucked away the creative parts of me to fit into a mold that never really fit.


Eventually, I realized: we only get one life. And I didn’t want mine to be lived in the shadows.


So I picked up my camera. I found my voice. And I reclaimed the light — in my work, in my motherhood, in myself.


Today, I get to help others do the same. Whether I’m behind the lens or behind the screen editing your images, I aim to preserve light — the golden kind that hits just right at sunset, and the deeper kind that reminds us who we really are.


If you’re looking for a photographer or editor who sees the beauty in the mess, the meaningful, and the magical.. you’re in the right place.

Let’s reclaim the light together.

I want your session to feel easy and real, never stiff or stressful. When I pull out my camera, I’m not looking for perfect. I’m looking for genuine.

The real stuff. The scrunch-nosed giggles, the quiet snuggles,

the chaos that makes your family yours.

Let your guard down. Be silly. Laugh loud. Let the kids run wild and free.

I promise, that’s where the magic lives.

I absolutely love creating galleries full of snuggles, joy, and the kind

of love you’ll want to remember forever.


Let's tell your authentic story.

A Few Things About Me

(That Might Tell You Everything)


I’m the kind of girl who tears up during baby giggles, can quote The Rookie, and always says yes to Chick-fil-A.

I believe in country backroads, golden hour light, and keeping Jesus and dry shampoo close at all times.

Thrifting is my therapy. So is sweet tea.

I’ll always choose the cold side of the pillow, a front porch conversation, and a song that makes you feel something.

I’m a wife, a mama, and a memory chaser.. and I’m all in when it comes to capturing the real, raw, beautiful heart of your story.
