About

Hi, we're Luke & Jess.

A husband-and-wife studio in Southwest Washington, helping people, brands, and churches do their best work — and tell their truest story.

We've been married since 2013 — and creating music and moments a good while longer than that. Luke grew up in the church (his dad's a pastor) and spent 15 years in vocational ministry as a worship and media pastor: leading worship, building teams, and producing video and design along the way. Jess is the eye behind the lens — a photographer with a gift for capturing real, unfiltered moments.

Somewhere between leading worship on Sunday and editing photos on Monday, Knoll Creative was born. Today we live in the Longview & Kelso area of Southwest Washington, where we build websites, capture photos and film, train worship teams, and make music as Luke & Jess. Two sides of the same heart: we love helping people, brands, and churches shine.

Meet the team

The two of us.

Luke spent 15 years in vocational ministry as a worship and hospitality pastor, with a passion for developing leaders and healthy teams. He pairs that pastoral heart with years of hands-on creative work — web design, video, and graphic design. Licensed with the C&MA, he's led worship and built creative teams in churches across Canada and the Pacific Northwest.

Jess is the heart behind Knoll Creative's photography — a natural with people who captures families, newborns, and weddings with warmth and authenticity. A wife, mom, and worship leader, she's passionate about marriage, real stories, and helping people feel at ease in front of the camera. You'll also hear her voice on Luke & Jess worship, and find her encouraging moms over at The Hope Filled Mama.

Where to next

Two paths, one studio.

We'd be honored to work with you.
