My husband and I were drawn to Jen by her eye and aesthetic, which is all about documenting your ordinary lifestyle. She was a treat to work with from the get go! She helped coach us on clothing and day/timing selection. She was extremely communicative leading up to the day of the shoot, during the actual shoot and afterwards. Always a professional, but man, is she fun too! We were immediately able to be ourselves to allow for really great shots. She was open to some of our ideas, but you’ll be amazed by what she discovers from behind the lens. You won’t regret working with her! As a matter of fact, I am having head-shots done by her in a week. Additionally, we’ll most definitely be having her shoot our family again in the future.

Check out their first session to see when they were just a family of three!

We had an ordinary morning at home for their second session.
