about jell 

Hi, I’m Jell Conte, the face and heart behind Photojellic Studio.

I come from a family of 10, and was born and raised in the Philippines. My journey brought me all the way to Massachusetts when I married the love of my life—and with that new beginning, I also embraced a dream I’ve carried since high school: photography.

It all started when I got my first camera phone—back when the word “selfie” hadn’t even been invented yet. I loved taking photos of myself and my family, capturing smiles, gatherings, and simple moments. That early love for documenting life only grew stronger over the years.

But it wasn’t until I received my own wedding photos that I truly understood how important this work is. My photos weren’t bad—but they didn’t capture the magic I’d felt. There was no “wow” moment when I opened that USB drive. As someone who values photos so deeply, I knew something was missing.

So when my husband gifted me my first digital camera, I started taking portraits for friends. Their reactions—full of joy, surprise, and appreciation—lit a fire in me. That’s when I knew: this is what I was meant to do.

Now, as a professional photographer, my mission is to give every couple and family that same “wow” feeling I longed for. I want your photos to feel like time stood still—like you’re living in that moment all over again.

When we work together, I’ll make sure the experience feels easy, relaxed, and enjoyable. No stress, no pressure—just genuine moments captured as they naturally unfold. You don’t have to worry about posing perfectly or being camera-ready. I’ve got you.

At the end of the day, I’m here to create photos that mean something to you—images you’ll look back on and feel everything all over again.
