Hire her—immediately. We planned our wedding in just five months, and finding the right photographer was my biggest stress. I wanted documentary-style photography with natural, bright editing, which is harder to find than you’d think.
Our venue recommended Jen Pecka, and we’re so grateful they did.
Jen photographed both our rehearsal dinner and wedding day and was incredible throughout. She brought a fantastic second photographer, captured genuine, beautiful moments (despite how awkward we are in front of the camera), and made everything feel easy and unstaged. We also hired her for a highlight video, which perfectly captured the in-between moments we’ll treasure forever.
Jen truly listened, delivered beyond our expectations, and was an absolute joy to work with. Highly recommend.

We had the best experience with Jen as our wedding photographer. When looking for a wedding photographer, we were immediately drawn to Jen’s beautiful bright colors and candid moments. We were not let down, she provided us with the most beautiful engagement photos and wedding photos that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. It was fantastic getting to know Jen through our engagement shoot, she is a fun and easygoing person that made us feel comfortable immediately. For the wedding, she was totally open to our ideas, but also helped us to pose and arrange our friends and families kindly so that the photos turned out just right. We would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to partner with in their wedding photo endeavors!

We worked with Jen for our engagement and wedding photos. She did an excellent job! Very easy to work with, personable. She had a lot of great ideas and open to our ideas and suggestions. The posed photos are beautiful but the candids from the wedding day of my family are some of my favorite. She captured some amazing moments, love, and laughs in a heartwarming way. I would definitely recommend her.

Jen takes the time to get to know you as a couple and your wedding vision. She will work with you to determine what's important to you both on your wedding day. The first thing that drew me in when I saw her photos was the light-airy, romantic glow they had! I loved how her wedding packages included a complimentary engagement shoot as well. Her energetic, positive, laid-back vibe gave us the help we needed to feel more comfortable being in front of the camera. She has a great eye for selecting scenic spots to capture your special day! After your wedding day is over, it's amazing how looking at your photos can bring you right back to that moment! When you hire Jen to capture those specials memories for you-you can feel confident that you will get high-quality, professional photos to treasure for a lifetime.

Jen was an absolutely amazing photographer! We originally booked her for August 2020 wedding and when we had to reschedule due to the pandemic she was incredibly accommodating. We loved being able to meet her beforehand for the complimentary engagement shoot and on the day-of she was the perfect mix of assertive enough to get the shots she needed without being too pushy or forcing people into awkward staged shots, and her action shots were incredible! We cannot recommend her highly enough!

If I had to say one thing and one thing only, it would be that Jen is incredible. Fortunately, I can say more than that, but that encompasses everything I want to say. Jen photographed the day my husband proposed to me, she photographed our engagement pictures, and she photographed our wedding. Truly, I wish there were more wedding-related events going on that she could photograph more for us because she is AMAZING. She made us feel comfortable from day one. She is punctual, she offers ideas of beautiful places to shoot, she helps “prop you” if you need it, but most of all, she listens to what you want or what your vision is, and she goes above and beyond to make it happen. She’s easily reached, quick to respond, and is so fun to talk to. On my wedding day she was one of the people calming me down and telling me it’ll all be okay. I really, really cannot recommend Jen enough. Her work is perfect. Her editing is perfect. She’s perfect. Highly recommend! We LOVE her!

Jen was absolutely amazing on our wedding day! She rallied a group of rowdy groomsmen and sassy bridesmaids in the most amazing way possible. We got so lucky with a beautiful day in October and Jen did an awesome job working with the sun (I'm sure it was not easy). Our pictures came out incredible and I could not be happier! She made us feel super comfortable and I just can't get over how stunning our pics are. Thank you so much Jen for capturing our special day

Jen did both our engagement and wedding photos last year and they were incredible!! Jen was easy to work with and made us feel very at ease while taking pictures. From hiking up Buttermilk Falls for our engagement photos to freezing in the Cornell Botanical Gardens for our wedding photos, Jen (and Brittni) were up for it all! She has a great eye for landscape backdrops, lighting and editing that blew us away when we saw final photos. We would highly recommend Jen for your next special event!

Oh Jen Pecka is absolutely wonderful to work with! She was very responsive and we loved that she captured our engagement photos too because she was able to get to know us a little better! She went to high school with my husband as well so that was very special to have someone he already knew! Giving the business to people around you is always such a wonderful experience! Traffic got the best of her as she came to our wedding but she was very very professional and completely made it a prefect day for us! Our wedding was an absolutely beautiful day but VERY hot!

Jen and her assistant Brittany photographed our wedding on January 19, 2018 in Binghamton, New York. Jen's talent is clearly evident from all of photos posted on her Facebook and website, and we knew our wedding photos taken by her would be beautiful, but today she posted a sneak peak photo and our jaws literally dropped. Family members and friends who saw it told us it looked something from the cover of a magazine. Her work is truly art.

Beyond her talent, Jen is a professional who is clearly super passionate about capturing life's most important moments. Her assistant Brittany was lovely and very easy to work with. They both worked SO hard all day for us and it did not go unnoticed.

Future Brides and Grooms: do yourselves a HUGE favor and hire Jen before she is whisked off to a big city to shoot editorials and movie stars!
