HERE LIES YOUR PROOF OF LIFE

All I’ve ever wanted and tried to do at every wedding is to pull back the layers and search through all the chaos of the guests, the details, the stress, the party and find the VULNERABILITY.

To find the moments of true, unfiltered love and joy.

To find the love at the center of it all.

I’M IN THE BUSINESS OF PRESERVING MEMORIES. WHAT AN HONOR.

I seek out truth, honesty, vulnerability and I will always chose that over just a pretty photo.

I’m here for your truth.

I’m here for your intricate, radiant, messy, weird, one-of-a-kind love story.

THIS IS YOUR WEDDING DAY. THIS ISN’T A PERFORMANCE.

A documentary style approach.

Intimate weddings, elopements, or any day where nature plays a supporting character will always pull at my heart strings.

But no matter how your day unfolds, I’m driven to create photos that tell the truth, with a cinematic and artistic feel.

“We had the most amazing experience with Jenn and truly don’t have enough fantastic things to say about her. She made us feel like she wanted to produce a fantastic gallery for us and make the day so so special! Her photos are stunning and we have countless favorite shots. She has a great mix of effortless candids, posed portraits, and artsy abstract photos that we are in love with. Her communication skills are unmatched and her work is impeccable. Please please please consider this beautiful person for your photography needs! I say with absolute certainty that you will be thrilled with Jenn!”

“Jenn is incredible. She photographed our wedding and did an amazing job with capturing the raw emotions of our special day. She allowed us to be us, and didn’t turn our wedding into a photoshoot. Instead, she did a wonderful job tastefully and artistically capturing special moments throughout the day and we are so thrilled with the end result. Jenn keeps things moving quickly, is so professional, and is truly an artist.”
