Capturing your dream mountain wedding or elopement in Estes Park, Colorado.

Hey, hi! Thanks for stopping by my Wedding Wire page! I have been a professional photographer in the wedding & portrait industry for over 16+ years now and have had the honor of capturing lifes most precious milestone moments all around the globe. One of my biggest goals is to make you feel like I am just part of the crew; to make you feel so comfortable and confident in how beautiful your photos are going to be that it's the last thing on your mind! I want you to enjoy every precious moment of your big day with the people that you love the most! Need help planning the perfect location, or bad jokes to break the ice with my giant camera lens pointed directly at you? I'm your gal! (LOL!) I believe in my heart that this kind of friendship and connection with your wedding photographer is incredibly important for both of us!

I love true colors, laughter & adventurous couples! My goal is to create artistic and timeless images for you and your loved ones to cherish for a lifetime, and to tell your love story through images that capture the true spirit of your wedding day and the beginning of your lives together! I'm a big fan of capturing the beauty of your special moments in the way that my eye see's it and I've spent years and years mastering the manual capability of my camera equipment. As you'll see in my images, I love keeping things simple and timeless. I use a combination of contemporary, photojournalistic, natural, and authentic emotion in my photos and in my editing.

By the way "hi!" I'm Janea! Most people call me “J”. I am a dog loving, wine drinking, creative minded foodie with a soul that thrives in the mountains and a near life-long local of Estes Park (my dad still lives there!), currently residing on the west side of Loveland. While I love capturing gorgeousness all around the globe; Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park and it's beauty most definetly has my heart. My love for portrait photography began in 2008. I had the honor of capturing an engagement session for two people whom I still keep in contact with today. Watching the sparks fly between the two of them from behind the lens my forever impacted my soul, and here we are now... 16 years later!
