    Hands down best wedding decision we made

    Jennifer was the best engagement + wedding photographer we ever could have hoped for! My partner and I both feel like awkward, unphotogenic people, but Jennifer made us feel comfortable and captured really authentic smiles, looks, and poses. We had a lot of family drama and basically everything went wrong with wedding planning. Jennifer was very supportive and understanding, and just a great person to talk to during that whole process. We are absolutely thrilled with how all of the pictures turned out, and our family can't stop raving about them! She even got an incredible smile out of my dad who is notoriously stone-faced. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a Baltimore photographer -- the photos are priceless!

    Remarkable Talent & Lovely Human!

    Jennifer went above and beyond for our wedding and engagement photos. Her skill and eye for photography is remarkable. She has an incredible talent for capturing intimate, honest moments -- whether those moments are touching, joyful, tearful, or heartwarming, she just knows when to shoot and click. The formals were absolutely gorgeous -- with great consideration of background and lighting. The reception photos feel like movie scenes! All of our friends and family were blown away with the images -- each of us remarking "I didn't even notice she was there!" We are so thankful we found Jennifer and grateful for her creative perspective, positive energy, and joyful nature. I truly can't recommend her enough.

    Best decision we made!

    Jennifer was the best decision we made in planning our wedding! Not only were both our engagement and wedding pictures incredible (and that's saying a lot since I'm notoriously unphotgenic), she was a pivotal thought partner for each step.of the way. We were initially excited to find her because shes local and the packages on her website are straightforward and easy.to plan for. Once we met to learn more and see pictures, we knew we needed her to pull off our big day. I'm still in awe that she was willing to make our backyard COVID ceremony that we decided to plan in less than 24 hours! The blog says it all :) We would definitely recommend Jennifer Smuteck photography!

    Incredible Experience!

    Jennifer had done work for a couple of friends for their weddings so we felt great about hiring her as our photographer and she did not disappoint!!! I don't know what we loved about working with her more - her professionalism, overall demeanor, or photography skills! Her professionalism stands out in her communications and when in person, directing with confidence while keeping an open mind to all of my ideas. She is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet while also being direct, and you can tell her team loves working with her as well which made the experience extra special for us. And of course, her work! We have more pictures that we want to frame than we'll ever have space for, she was able to capture once-in-a-lifetime moments that perfectly embody the feelings of joy, pride, and love that you want in your wedding pictures. We can't recommend her enough and hope to work with her again in the future to capture our special life moments! Thank you, Jennifer - we are obsessed!

    Not your standard wedding photographer

    Picking Jennifer as our photographer was one of the first decisions we made when planning our wedding and what a great decision that was. Not only was Jennifer a phenomenal photographer, but her knowledge of the wedding vendors and venues in our area was impressive. Jennifer was able to provide us with recommendations and guidance for nearly every external vendor we worked with and set us up for success early.

    If you are looking for someone who goes the extra mile to make your day special, Jennifer Smutek is who you're looking for.

    Wow.. Jennifer is truly the best

    I am so lucky to have had Jennifer Smutek photograph my wedding. Where to begin on how amazing and how forever grateful I am for Jennifer along with her assistant Maria. Outside of her amazing photographs and fun personality, you could feel Jennifer’s passion and love for what she does – and it makes sense because she’s AWESOME at it. During our engagement photos she was rolling around in the grass, running down hills, doing whatever she needed to get those perfect shots. At the wedding she was laying down on the dance floor, holding up light into a moon bounce all to get the perfect picture and capture every moment of the wedding. Her passion radiates through her work.

    Throughout the day beyond the photographs, Jennifer and Maria were absolute stars. Jennifer kept me from being probably 4 hours late to my wedding- ha! She kept myself and my bridal party on time and in line throughout the day, something we desperately needed. Maria saved my wedding shoes after the worst thing could happen – they broke hours before walking down the aisle. She even put on my dad’s boutonniere when my mom was struggling with it. All those little things they jumped up to do and help with outside their job were so beyond appreciated, and I’ll never forget it.

    Jennifer is a true professional, and if I were to get married again (WHICH I WON’T) I would hire Jennifer without a hesitation in my mind. She was a large part of the successful execution of my wedding, and I am forever grateful. I’ll be recommending Jennifer for as long as I possibly can! Thank you Jennifer & Maria!!

    Best wedding decision we made!

    I don't even know where to start with Jennifer and her assistant Maria. They were amazing in every way! They made us both feel totally comfortable being photographed and we had so much fun at our engagement shoot. Jennifer even walked into waist deep water to get an awesome shot! And I don't know how she did it because our dog is a wiggley mess, but the photos she took of us with our furbaby are perfect. She was super flexible--when a storm was coming in the evening we scheduled our sunset engagement shoot she was able to start a couple hours early so we could beat the storm (she also offered to reschedule since there was no sun but we went ahead and did it because it was easier for us to keep the date with our work schedules). And at the wedding they helped out with things that didn't have anything to do with photography. We had a backyard wedding so we were doing a lot of setup ourselves and Maria helped my mom so much. It was clear they really just wanted us to have a perfect day! And the photos!! They are all so beautiful! She set up an awesome shot at the edge of the forest that looks like we're in an enchanted forest. My favorite photos are always candids or slightly staged semi-candids (basically any ones not standing in a line) and she was so good at using all the fun parts of the the property to get lots of different photos! We're both beyond grateful we found Jennifer! If you're on the fence, hire her!

    Hire Jennifer and don't think twice about it!

    Jennifer is such a phenomenal photographer, and it shows in the products she produces. She is very professional, and she made it fun and easy to work with her. She makes sure that all the details are handled accordingly, so as a bride I knew I was in good hands. I highly recommend Jennifer and no one else. We are very happy with all our photos, she is simply the BEST! Thank you for everything.

    Excellent experience!

    I can't say enough good things about working with Jennifer - she was the best hire of our whole wedding! We met with a lot of photographers before we decided to pick Jennifer - we picked he, not only because her photos are amazing, but also because she was just a really cool person to spend time with (which is important since you'll be spending 8+ hours with a photographer that day!). We are not photo people so it was key to us to get a photographer who was able to bring out our most photogenic selves while also making us feel comfortable, something Jennifer excelled at beyond what we imagined. She was super flexible both in scheduling our engagement shoot and day-of when we needed to find alternate locations for some of the formal pictures. Her turnaround time is also great - we got pictures back from our engagement shoot and wedding within weeks and they were all stunning. Her prices were very reasonable given her services.

    Jennifer is amazing

    When I was looking at photographers for my wedding I met with a few and none of them stood out like Jennifer. I told her I had a vision of having my engagement shoot at a family property 2 hours away and she jumped right on board at the opportunity to shoot somewhere new. This is when I knew she was passionate and open and just what I was looking for. Then came the engagement shoot. This woman was laying on her stomach in a puddle after a cold rain storm just to get the most perfect shot of me and my fiance. Jennifer works her butt off to get you exactly what you want. Then came the wedding a year later and she blew everyone away with her professionalism and artsy eye. Every picture from that day is perfect and I got such a variety back from her. She captured everyone's raw emotion in her shots and was willing to be flexible whenever I wanted something specific. I will cherish those photos forever! We received so many compliments from both the wedding party and guests about just how incredible she really is. I cannot recommend Jennifer enough.

    Wonderful experience!

    Let me just say that Jennifer and her assistant, Maria, are the BEST people to work with. Jennifer is personable and professional and her work is beautiful. She makes you and your partner feel comfortable from the very first email/phone call, and really knows what she is doing. The engagement session was a lot of fun to do, and they get to know how to really work with us as a couple, getting every shot we could. Day of the wedding she went above and beyond, keeping track of the schedule, making sure we got the pictures we wanted, without being pushy. They even helped with my dress when it needing some pinning up in the back. Jennifer's work is worth every penny from start to finish, and you won't be disappointed!
