    When I went searching for a wedding photographer I was looking for someone who took fun, beautiful and quality pictures with a reasonable price. Jenny delivered all this and so much more. She is willing to try just about any idea you may have for posing and different shots etc. She is flexible, accommodating and very easy to work and communicate with. She has such a fun personality which makes taking pictures more natural and helps you to feel comfortable! My engagement pictures and wedding pictures are so amazing and beautiful! I know I will cherish these photos forever. She captured everything PERFECTLY!

    I could not be more happy with the service I received from Jenny. I booked Jenny for our engagement, wedding, and a boudoir shoot and I could not have been happier with the pictures! Not only is she amazing at what she does, but her prices are incredible! Jenny is creative, flexible, and willing to take any and all ideas. I could not give her enough praise! I will definitely be using her to capture more of our special events in the future!

    We used Jen with Life's Special Moments Photography for our engagement session and wedding. I also used her for a boudoir photo shoot, which I gifted to my husband for a wedding gift. She is phenomenal and a diamond! She is so creative, talented, and FUN! Our pictures are amazing and we are so grateful to have found her!

    She goes above and beyond her job description to make each photo shoot unique and personable.

    I have and will continue to recommend Life's Special Moments Photography! We love you Jen!

    Absolutely fantastic! I have had the fun chance to work with Jenny doing a boudoir session, engagement shoot and my wedding. She had so many creative ideas and was always looking for the next great shot. She is easy going, fun and she made each photo session go smooth. She provided us with a lot of great photos and captured every moment. I would recommend her to anyone who needs family or wedding photos taken.

    As a photography who has assisted a few weddings with LSM I can say I am impressed with her level of professionalism and eye for a good shot and ability to capture it. Also, she is thorough and works well with her brides. Jenny is no joke about getting images and products back to her clients in a short amount time. As a wedding photographer she sets the bar high for all of us!

    My wife and I were so glad we went with Jenny from LSMP! She is so easy to work with. Jenny is very professional, and she's a fun guest! The pictures turned out great, and the value was through the roof. We have recommended her to so many newly engaged couples. Jenny was always on time, and she turned all of our picture ideas into reality. We can't say enough about her! The only reason we gave her a 5.0 rating is because we couldn't go higher. Highly, highly recommended.

    Jenny was a lot of fun to work with, she was friendly and flexible and offered some unique photography suggestions that turned out beautiful. I would recommend her to my family and friends in an instant, and I have. The photos and the CD's were a great value. Thank you Jenny!

    My niece said my wedding photos looked like they came from a Bridal magazine. Jenny is great, very willing to do whatever the couple wants and offers great suggestions. She has a fabulous personality that puts even he most camera shy at ease. Best prices around as well.

    Jenny is an amazing photographer. I booked her for my Sept 2009 wedding and reception in Kalamazoo, MI. She is one of the most reasonably priced vendors I've ever come across and very easy to work with... even in those moments of being a bridezilla. She uses top of the line equipment and I was absolutely thrilled with the number of pictures that were taken that day... edited and burned onto DVD for us to have printed at any photolab of our choice. Wonderful!

    I also used Jenny for 2 seperate Senior Picture sessions (for our 2 teen daughters). She was spectacular at coming up with creative venue's for the shoots and the girls absolutely loved their time with her. The pictures (tons of them) turned out amazing and it was very hard to narrow down just a few for them to send out for their special senior pic pose. We used Jenny's photolab resource and the results were great... and at a GREAT price compared to other senior picture vendors.

    We are so happy with the pictures we received from Jenny. She took a TON of pictures and gave them all to us so we could pick and choose which ones were our favorite. Jenny even gave us flexibility on some photos we wanted her to edit which I really appreciated. She answered emails very quickly which was very reassuring when it came to last minute questions.

    I had a low light, indoor ceremony and I don't think my pictures turned out very good. All of the photographer's good pictures come from lighted outdoor shoots, so be aware of that when booking.

    Also, she didn't pose us or tell us when the wind had blown our hair/ my veil. So many of my pictures have my veil all crazy and it looks weird. Wish she would have mentioned it at the time.

    Meghan I’m so sorry you weren’t happy with your photos. There were so many of yours and Beau’s photos that I loved, I was honestly a bit surprised to see that you weren’t happy. If there’s anything I can do to make it up to you please let me know.

    This woman was terrible!! She photographed our wedding and rushed the entire day because she had to get home so her husband could go to work. The pictures turned out very dark and her attitude was extremely unprofessional as well. Dont make the same mistake I did. These pictures are forever, splurge on the photographer and save money somewhere else.

    Life's Special Moments Photography's reply:

    I’m not sure who this is. If this is legit I feel horrible that you didn’t like your photos and I would love for you to contact me so I can try to make it right. I have to say thou I can’t recall ever shooting a wedding where I had to rush home after because my husband had to work. My husband is an attorney and only works days. ALSO it says you got married on the 6th of October, and I didn’t shoot a wedding then. Please contact me. I honestly would like to talk to you.

    we received the photos of our daughters wedding, what a huge disappointment. When I voiced our disappointment Jenny was quick to send a huge insulting text, blaming the bride & groom for not having any creative pose ideas and ending with she did the best she could with what she had to work with, very insulting to say that to someone that paid in full. The quality of the canvas was horrible, not professional at all. I guess the old saying applies "you get what you pay for" and we certainly did. There is a difference between a professional photographer and someone that does it as a hobby, in this case anyone of our guest could have taken the photos it was like a "hobby" not a profession. And he response to me was not professional at all.

    Life's Special Moments Photography's reply:

    In reply to your comment that my work is comparable to something any guest at the wedding could have taken or that I’m hobbiest level, I believe my work speaks for itself. The special circumstances that surrounded the day made for a challenging wedding day. It was so hot a man had to be taken by ambulance to the hospital. The bride (her daughter) and the groom wanted out of their wedding attire ASAP. Which meant I was not able to do photos around sunset like I would with most couples. When there is direct sunlight in all the locations I wanted to shoot at, or everything else was a long walking distance (which for this bride was a concern) I didn’t have much choice and worked with what I had available. It had nothing to do with the bride and groom themselves. It was the lighting and the venue. As for the canvas, I have never had a complaint regarding my canvases. I’m sorry it was not to your standards. I did contact the Bride after her mother left me this review and asked if SHE didn’t like her photos or was unhappy and if she was I would do whatever I could to make it up to her. She never responded. I believe this is a case where the mother was unhappy but the bride was happy. I don’t know for sure seeing she didn’t respond.
