I can’t stop staring at (my gallery) and obnoxiously showing them to people. Not only are they just wonderful pictures, but Jen is so thoughtful that each shot really does tell a story and the composition of the photos is intriguing at the same time. There’s so much depth to her work. The result is truly awesome pictures that remind you that your daily life is pretty darn spectacular (even on those days when you definitely don’t think so!).  –Gretchen C

Jen is simply AMAZING! We invited her into our home to capture our family doing what families do – playing, eating, spilling, laughing, and living our everyday life. Every photo Jen captured was authentic, beautifully shot, and so very US. She did an incredible job capturing our kids’ personalities – we saw the photos and fell in love with our kids all over again. She’s not just an artist with her keen eye for lighting, composition, and color – it’s her nature with children that truly wowed us. Her kindergarten teacher days shone through as we saw our kids open up to her and she captured every nuance of who they are. We’ve already had her back for a second session and I’m sure there will be more in the future!  -Amber S
