Did you confirm where http://megansperryphotography.com/ is hosted?I assume the answer is no because WordPress.COm support docs apply only to blogs hosted by wordpress.COM.

Are you asking how to disconnect a Jetpack site from your wordpress.COM account? If the answer is yes see here
https://en.support.wordpress.com/disconnect-jetpack-sites/re: megansperryphotography.com
We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites and that one is not among them. Our support docs do not apply to
(1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
(2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM.Also, note that we do not provide Jetpack support https://jetpack.me/support/ for sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin.
Note that Jetpack is a plugin used by WordPress.ORG bloggers to achieve parity with what we already have built into WordPress.COM blogs. A wordpress.COM account is required to run the Jetpack plugin, but we do not provide Jetpack support on these wordpress.COM support forums. Please direct Jetpack issues to where they can get Jetpack support.
re: Jetpack support
Some Jetpack solutions are here http://jetpack.me/support/Others are in the Jetpack support forum at WordPress.org
http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpackHowever, if help cannot be found at either one then they can file a Jetpack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service
You are posting to the wrong support forum.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
As you are referring to a site that is not hosted here, if you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right-hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.

WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

Knowing the differences between wordpress.COM hosted blogs and wordpress.ORG sites is essential to answering questions accurately here.This is what I do before I post into any thread:
1. Click the member link under the username to determine if there are multiple threads on the same issue and if any duplicates have been answered. If there are duplicates and multiples I tag them appropriately with Duplicate and already answered in the sidebar, so Volunteers and Staff are not going around in circles saying the same things in different threads.
2. Confirm the site URL being referred to and verify where it is hosted. Note: I direct those with WordPress.ORG and/or Jetpack issues to the correct places for support where necessary.
* Please do not ever provide wordpress.ORG support responses in wordpress.COM support threads. Doing that just creates confusion. We are instructed to politely redirect self-hosting wordpress.ORG bloggers with issues to the forums at http://wordpress.ORG/support
3. Isolate the wordpress.COM issue(s). When Posts or Pages are referred to I also ask for those URLs as well as the site URL. Use both wordpress.COM tag search and Google search to locate the most recent, correct answers provided by experienced Volunteers and Staff. Then I do support doc searches.
4. I compose *a relevant and helpful response that’s aimed to resolve the issue.
5. If Staff intervention is required I tag the thread with Modlook in the sidebar for their attention and request that the blogger subscribes to the thread. https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question
**I have answered threads here for nearly 10 years. I predate the support docs and all but one Staff member being on Support Staff, so I have a private site with hundreds of copy and paste answers that I keep updated. If you want to answer questions, you may want to have such a private site too.
Best wishes.

Thank you, timethief. I’m used to the pace at Stack Exchange so when I see an unanswered question I have a tendency to jump on it. I appreciate the reminder to slow down and comprehend the questions before answering :)
