About

I believe in self-expression, love and laughing your ass off. I look for the humor in life as well as the beauty.

Starting out forever ago as a music photojournalist, I photographed promotional portraits and live shows for Seattle venues, indie rock labels and alternative weekly newspapers. At one point I put down the camera and picked up the bass, playing in a few bands. Turns out I’m much better with the camera!

Everything clicked after shooting my first wedding. The pace, emotion and unpredictability was similar to a rock show, yet my gear was free of sweat and spit and I came home with (slightly) fewer bruises. The couples were my rock stars.

Today I continue to document events, families, musicians and editorial assignments. My work has been published in Spin, The Seattle Times, Paste, Nylon, Magnet, PDN, and blah blah blah. A passionate supporter of marriage equality and LGBTQ rights, I once photographedover 25 same-sex weddings in one day. Yes, I’m a feminist too.

I’m based in Seattle but travel often for work. New York is my birthplace and second home.

Please drop me a line if you see something that makes you smile, laugh or think twice. I like to know these things.

Fantastic experience, drop-dead gorgeous photos

I don't think I can properly express how absolutely blown away I was when I saw our finished wedding photos. Jenny's photos stunned me. In her hands, captured moments become works of art, and the fact that these works of art are also your own treasured memories is overwhelming. I've gone through our gallery so many times and each time I get swept up anew in how beautiful the photos are.

If sheer talent isn't enough, consider that on top of that, Jenny is an incredibly kind, professional, and fun human being whom you will love having at your wedding!! More than one guest at my wedding mentioned how much their enjoyed interacting with her and Beth (her partner in shooting our wedding). If you like her portfolio and are considering hiring her, DO IT. Her work is worth every penny and then some. Thank you Jenny for capturing our wedding so beautifully!!!!!

Jenny is all the things that we wanted in a wedding photographer that we didn't know we wanted in a wedding photographer! Having never hired a photographer before, it was all a bit overwhelming, especially in the wedding space as there are just SO many options.

Before meeting Jenny via Skype, my now husband and I had a conversation with another Seattle-based photographer (also by Skype as we were doing all the planning remotely from Oregon). While this other photographer had a really nice portfolio, we left that lackluster conversation feeling very....meh. Very...discouraged.

Then... **Dun dun da dahhhh!!!** Enter Jenny on her magical steed of friendliness, creativity, responsiveness, obvious talent and warmth. She immediately understood the kind of photography that we wanted for our wedding day - FUN! As I explained during that first conversation, we are not the "groom kissing bride's forehead at sunset in a field" kind of couple. She also asked about things we liked to do together and what we loved about each other, seeming genuinely interested and curious about us.

Jenny has a knack for making you feel relaxed and free - catching the tiny moments between moments beautifully. We spent about an 1.5 hours before our ceremony galavanting around the streets near our venue for our couples photos. Jenny had previously scouted the area and took us to some awesome nooks that I never knew existed, including a super bright fuchsia wall of an apartment building that I just loved! Following all that, she orchestrated our family portrait time well, even with our two crazy families all over the place. While being the utmost of a professional, Jenny just seemed to blend into the party the entire night. Many of our guests commented about how great Jenny was.

Our wedding was on a Saturday night and by Monday evening Jenny had already sent us some teasers, which were all AWESOME and I cannot wait to see the rest!

I highly recommend Jenny!!!

Our wedding took place in Sonoma last May, and Jenny traveled down to shoot our rehearsal dinner and the big day. She may have been the best choice we made in the entire process. Jenny put everyone at ease, and she is so vibrant and fun that she even elevated the party. Her pictures are just incredible - when I look through our photos it brings me right back to that wonderful day. If you are lucky enough to hire Jenny you should start buying frames in bulk now, because you will love every picture she takes.

Jenny was amazing to work with in advance and ahead of our wedding day. We and the bridal party party loved working with her! And her teaser photos have been amazing so far! She was also very flexible in going offsite for a few minutes after our ceremony.

Oh the REGRET I have in not knowing Jenny earlier! She embodies everything I would've wanted for my own wedding a few years ago---her photography style, funky fresh personality, being swift as a rabbit in communication, and overall, a darn good vendor and pal to know for the rest of your life. I'm a wedding coordinator and how blessed I was to get paired up with Jenny for a San Francisco wedding. From a vendor's perspective, Jenny was awesome to partner with and hustled like a boss to capture the most unique shots I've ever seen. Her teasers left me breathless. Don't bother looking anywhere else. If you want your event photos to just be REAL with no fluff and showcase the happiness of that very moment-- no "ands, ifs, buts" about it, Jenny is the best camera chica to hire and truly is the bomb!!(drop the mic)

I was a bridesmaid for a wedding that Jenny shot in 2011and when I got engaged, I knew that I wanted her as my photographer for my own wedding in LA.

Jenny is amazing to work with. She is professional, responsive, and accommodating (especially when it came to our many Asian extended family shot). On the day of the wedding, she took charge and everywhere we looked we saw Jenny shooting photos. Many of our family and friends came up to us and told us how great she was. She is great at capturing those truly memorable candid moments that make a wedding so special.

Our teasers were stunning and we cannot wait to see the rest of our photos!

Thank you Jenny!!

I'm not sure why you would hire another photographer. She's smart, organized, professional, fun, and very talented. Our photos are so beautiful and she captured everything about our wedding that we hoped for. She's very energetic and stealthy as she moves around the venue, snapping photos.

Jenny photographed our wedding reception on Orcas Island last summer, and she was a total joy to work with on the day. She puts everyone at ease so naturally with her expert, lighthearted approach. Even my mom, who gets self-conscious and normally hates having her picture taken, felt confident and looked beautiful during the family pictures. That said, Jenny is just as good at disappearing into the background to get awesome candid shots as she is at making people laugh, and our favorite pictures were the really candid moments of our friends & family that evening.

It's just been eight months since the island wedding, but today looking back at our photos made me realize how much has already changed since then. Friends moved, new babies arrived, jobs changed, etc., and already we're in a very different era personally. I honestly got a little teary this afternoon thinking about how lucky we are to have such beautiful pictures of all our friends and family together during one of our happiest times.

Thank you Jenny, we will always love our pictures!

Jenny is such an energetic & acrobatic force of nature that is hard to put how awesome she is into words!

First, she is a consummate professional. From initial consultation to the wedding day, Jenny is the epitome of an organized business woman who remains calm (even FUN) under pressure. Prior to the wedding, she offers invaluable and practical advice, and responds quickly to emails with questions.

Jenny has wedding photography down to a science. Whether it’s getting an impossible giggle out of stiff Uncle Bob, shooting your bridal party through her legs while she is sliding into a split, or making up time when the couple is falling behind schedule, Jenny truly can handle (and make the most of) anything that comes her way.

Why I loved working with Jenny:
1. She’s so cool. One of those people who makes you feel like you’ve known her forever within minutes of meeting her.
2. She knows how to make people feel comfortable in front of the camera, focusing on candid shots and natural interactions.
3. She scouts your ceremony & reception locations before the wedding so she can find awesome settings for your photos.
4. She is a photo ninja – showing up just as that special moment is about to naturally unfold, and getting down on the dance floor with the craziest crowd to make sure all angles of the party are covered. (I think at one point she was lying on her back on the dance floor & we were all crowded over her smiling into her lens!)
5. She has a mean high kick.

I sound like I am girl crushing, and maybe I am, but literally all of my friends and family were raving about Jenny after the wedding. She was our photographer and the life of the party at the same time. Where does she get the energy?!

We hired Jenny for our NYC wedding and it one of the BEST decisions we made. She traveled from Seattle and her rates (including travel) were comparable to all the local NY photogs we spoke with. Call Jenny, trust me, you'll be hooked!

Jenny and Rosie photographed our wedding last month and did an amazing job. All of my friends loved them. They got into the mix without getting in your face, danced, laughed, and felt like actual guests at our party, rather than "on the job". That said, Jenny runs an extremely professional business. Is always on time, prepared to work, and always willing to meet your needs. Her photo journalistic style captures moments rather than poses and personalities rather than people. We got a sneak peak at some photos just a week after our wedding and can't wait to get the rest. Would HIGHLY recommend her!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
