HI! Thanks for checking out the Happenstance Creative storefront! My name is Jared Carpenter, and I'm a photographer and videographer from the Midwest. I'm glad you're here and appreciate your interest.

Happenstance Creative is here to provide you beautiful photos and videos of your wedding and engagement. Your wedding day, whether big or small, is a moment to cherish forever. I strive to capture the celebration surrounding you and your promise to each other and the unique personality brought out in every couple. I provide a long list of services including videography, fine art 35mm and digital photography, engagement sessions and announcements, wedding packages, portrait & lifestyle photography and more.

I've grown up in Springfield, Missouri and am very familiar with, and wiling to travel to the surrounding areas: Joplin, Branson, Arkansas, Kansas City, and St. Louis. I even completed a four year degree in Film and Marketing here in town at Evangel University. Every wedding is different and each couple may desire different results from their wedding. Happenstance Creative understands unique situations and provides unique art - I'd love to hear how I can help. If you have any questions feel free to ask! You can find more galleries and creative work at my website or by finding me on Facebook or Instagram! Cheers!
