WHAT MY COUPLES ARE SAYING
“We are so thankful for her going above and beyond on our wedding day!”
Amazing! Jen is full of life and so energetic with a positive attitude. We loved having her photograph our big day and picture the moment. Our photos are beyond beautiful and we couldn’t be happier. Jen was extremely helpful and organized. We are so thankful for her going above and beyond on our wedding day. Everything was so perfect! ~Sandra and Phillip
Jen was so positive and joyful and it put my now husband at ease (he’s very uncomfortable in front of a camera). Not only was our elopement fun and enjoyable, but our images helped us to relive the day anytime we want. The photos were so far above what we hoped for, but the experience was a memory we will never forget! We recommend her to anyone and everyone that’s getting married. Silvia + John
She captured our love perfectly and with a gorgeous background of the California coast”
We were set on eloping and having an intimate wedding in our favorite place to go as a couple — Carmel. As we live in another state, we were nervous about hiring a photographer. Jen set our minds at ease with her experience and bubbly personality on a Zoom call. On our special day, she made the whole experience about us and our love, making taking photos so much easier by giving us direction. When we saw the images she captured, they were breathtaking. My mom said she captured our love perfectly and with a gorgeous background of the California coast. Best investment ever as we get to look through these images for years to come. Thank you! ~ Michael and Alisa
