Hi there, I’m Jen - thank you for stopping by!

 

Photography has always been a way for me to hold onto the moments that matter most—the raw, unfiltered bits of life that tell our stories. I started my journey in wedding photography 13 years ago, inspired by a desire to capture the people and love in my own life in a way that felt honest. I've been part of the wedding world since I was just a little 20-year-old baby. I started out as a musician and a makeup artist; I loved being part of so much excitement but once I found my way into photography I found that it was the act of storytelling that truly filled my soul. So, I picked up a camera, shadowed a few talented photographers, and never looked back.

 

My approach is candid, documentary, and unposed whenever possible (don't worry, I do still gently guide wedding & family portraits when appropriate). I believe that every emotion is deeply beautiful and important. When I photograph a wedding or a family, I’m fully invested in telling the story I'm witnessing, not just snapping pictures. I won't manipulate the scene or push you into poses that don’t feel right; I want your photos to be a reflection of who you truly are. Authentic and honest story telling are the most important thing to me as a creative.

 

Outside of photography, I’m a mom to twins (who are almost as tall as me), wife to a very tall and very ginger guy who is my opposite in the best possible way, and the proud owner of a scruffy senior rescue dog named Bowie. Bowie is 12 years old and still gets as excited to see a squirrel as he did when he was a pup. He’s a daily reminder for me to appreciate the little things in life.

 

I haven't been to as many destinations yet as I'd like, but in my heart a bit of a tumbleweed and adore travelling. Costa Rica has been my favorite place to visti so far— that "Pura Vida" life has a way of getting to you. I love how travel shows us new ways of living and, at the same time, reinforces how connected we all are.

 

When I’m not behind the camera or traveling, you’ll find me spending quality time with my close friends and family—my love language is quality time, and there’s nothing I cherish more than being surrounded by the people I care about, no matter what we’re doing.

 

Whether you’re planning a wedding or just want to document a slice of your life, I’m here to help you tell your story in the most honest and FUN possible. Let’s create something real together.
