About

I am a wedding and portrait photographer armed with a love of treasured moments and an obsession with light.

From lavish extravagant affairs at the Biltmore Estate to courthouse elopements where I sign as a witness, I love photographing love in all forms!

And, we firmly believe that LOVE is LOVE. All are welcome and safe with us.

I have been photographing weddings since 2002 but established Jen Yuson Photography in 2007.

Though originally from NC, Jen spent many years in NYC working at a photography studio. She moved back to NC in 2008 and to Asheville in 2011, where she's been photographing beautiful mountain weddings ever since.

Ten out of Five Stars!

Jen Yuson is an absolute dream! She handled our wedding day with grace, positivity, and ease, managing our family and 240 guests effortlessly. Group photos were relaxed and fun, with everyone laughing naturally, and she even worked wonders with children and babies.
Her eye for perfect lighting and capturing genuine moments made our wedding memories unforgettable. As a wedding planner, I’ve seen countless photographers, and when my husband proposed, I knew immediately that Jen was the one to document our day.
Thank you to Jen and her wonderful husband for creating photos we’ll cherish forever. Ten out of five stars!

An awesome wedding photography experience!

Hiring Jen was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day! From our first conversation to the final delivery of photos, Jen was professional, kind, funny, and incredibly talented. She took the time to understand our vision and personalities and captured every moment beautifully.
We’re lucky to have awesome engagement photos, bridal portraits, and wedding photos by Jen. We had to move our wedding from Asheville to Winston-Salem due to Hurricane Helene, and Jen was able to still photograph our wedding despite the venue change. She made the transition to a new venue seamlessly, and put our minds at ease in a stressful time.
On the wedding day, Jen made us and our guests feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Her ability to blend into the background while still capturing candid, emotional moments was impressive. She also has a fantastic eye for lighting, and we have some gorgeous photos of our ceremony during golden hour. When we received the photos, we were blown away! Each picture felt like a work of art, telling the story of our special day so perfectly. The turnaround time for the edited photos was quick, and the quality was outstanding. The system she uses to share photos allows them to be separated into sections and sort by facial recognition, which made the process of finding specific photos simple. We highly recommend Jen to anyone looking for timeless, stunning wedding photos!

Amazing photographer and beautiful photos!

We are so happy that we chose Jen Yuson to be our wedding photographer! On our first intro call she was very personable and outgoing so we knew she had the vibe we were looking for in a photographer. After the call she sent us a draft wedding timeline so she was also clearly organized and responsive. We interviewed a few photographers but for these reasons Jen was our first choice. From the moment she arrived on the wedding day the whole process of taking photos went extremely smoothly. We got married at the Inn on Biltmore Estate and since she has photographed at the Biltmore before she was familiar with all their rules and knew all the good spots for picture taking. She also has a great eye for details and lighting and took some great detail shots too. During portraits she was great at corraling the wedding party and family into picture groups and always had a funny quip or question to get people laughing for more natural smiles and to make people feel more comfortable and look relaxed in photos. During the ceremony and reception she was definitely not intrusive and captured some great pictures without getting in the way of us or guests having fun during dinner and dancing. To top it all off, she starting posting some pictures to social media only a few days later and delivered all our wedding photos within four days! We were so excited and amazed to receive them back so quickly and there was definitely no compromise in the quality of the photos from the quick turnaround. The pictures were so beautiful and we're so happy to have them to remember our wedding day for years to come!

Jen is fantastic!

Our wedding was the best day, and we will always have such vivid memories of it thanks to Jen and her amazing photographs. She was able to make me and my husband feel so comfortable in front of the camera (coming from two people who do not like to have our pictures taken), resulting in so many great shots of the two of us and our family and friends. She was also quick to lean in to our unserious personalities and got some amazing couples pictures that perfectly captured each moment. Some of my favorite shots are of us laughing hysterically or cracking a joke. With the band in the background at the reception, you can feel the energy and almost hear the music through the pictures. We knew by the end of the day that we would have fabulous pictures and, due to an unexpected connection over DnD, we left feeling like we had made a new friend as well. I would recommend Jen for any occasion where you want incredible photos, a high attention to detail, helpful insight into framing and posing, and just a great person to spend a couple of hours with to boot.

Amazing Energy and Beautiful Pictures

Absolutely loved our experience with her. Me and my partner don't typically take pictures, we were afraid our couples photos after the ceremony would be awkward. Jen made the couples photos a fun and joyful experience. The photos were beautiful, she got everything we wanted and more. We loved her, our guest loved her and we will for sure be using her for any professional photos!

Amazing Photographer!

Jen was phenomenal to work with! Her photography style is gorgeous and I felt like she really captured who we are as a couple. We had an engagement shoot at Black Balsam Knob and she photographed the day of our wedding. She was on time for both events and made us feel so at ease. She also helped save the day by getting us back on track after hair and makeup was running behind schedule.

Jen’s communication and organization are exceptional. She responded promptly to emails & texts and also had timelines that helped me stay organized while planning. Having her as our photographer was the most stress free part of wedding planning!

I would 100 percent book her again and can’t wait to in the future for other occasions. Jen is sweet, personable, professional and amazing at what she does! Her turnaround time was super quick and I love how user friendly her photo galleries are. She even includes a link to make things easy to share with friends and family. Her services are worth every penny!!

Wonderful Wedding Experience

I made the best decision besides the "I do" by hiring Jen to photograph my wedding. The intimate moments she captured during the day were absolutely stunning, thanks to her eye for detail. Jen arrived at the venue early to find the best spots for the best pictures, which showed her professionalism. Along with that, she has a wonderful personality that puts one at ease. She made our couple's portraits easy and fun and even managed to get 6 kids to look at the camera! I'm extremely happy with our photos and will cherish them forever. I guarantee you'll have a great experience too if you work with Jen.

Jen Yuson is excellent, highly recommend

We cannot recommend Jen enough as a wedding photographer! From the get-go, her organization shone through, ensuring every detail was taken care of. Not only is she very good at what she does, but her vibrant personality also made our sessions so much fun. But what truly took our breath away were the final photographs – they were absolutely stunning. And to top it off, she turned them around much faster than we or anyone expected. If you're looking for someone who combines talent with efficiency and a great attitude, we highly recommend Jen Yuson.

Amazing photographer that helped make our day a breeze

Jen is one of the sweetest people we've ever met. She was so helpful during the planning process, from creating a photography timeline to helping us choose which shots we wanted to get before and after the wedding. She is so professional and made everyone feel at ease. I was so glad that we found her and that she had worked at our venue before!

She is incredible!!

Jen was absolutely amazing to work with. We only have positive things to say! . She was incredibly flexible with us when the weather made our engagement shoot a little tricky.
She made everyone feel so comfortable during the wedding photos, and was able to balance traditional photos with silly and loosening everyone up! She was able to 100% meet my vision, and really made me feel like we were in a fairytale!
