MEET JENNIFER

I am a mom of two girls and have been with my high school sweetheart for 18 years now, so you could say that my life is a testament to witnessing love in all its forms and seasons. I try to bring this vision to all of my sessions and galleries – the idea that expressions of love should be captured and preserved in the most authentic way possible.

As for my background, I’ve been in the photography business for nearly all of my adult life. I have a bachelor's degree in fine art with a photography concentration, and I have been in business for 14 years. I’ve known that photography was my calling for a long time, and I’m so thrilled to be able to do what I love every day.

My best friend, Ashley, is also a part of my team – she has been working for me for 8 years now, and we have been friends for over 20 years. She is my right-hand woman, as well as my second shooter and assistant for almost all of my weddings. She will also assist on my mini session days and help with bookkeeping and side tasks during the busy season. She keeps the wheels turning around here, and she is an excellent photographer in her own right, as well!

KIND WORDS

"Photos are all we have to remember moments in time. If you want the best photos to remember those moments, Jen is your girl."

She photographed my wedding and my daughter’s newborn photos. She pays attention to detail and gets the perfect shots. 10/10 recommend Jen. You’ll go back to her for photos time and time again.

"Jen is an incredible photographer. I trust her for all of my photography needs and you should too."

She understands the importance of body position, the correct angle, finding the right background, hunting for the perfect light, and how to keep you smiling and laughing so the whole process flys by. You can also trust that her second shooter also understands these important details. By the time Jen sends you your finished and edited photos, you’ll totally understand why she is one of the best!
