WHERE EMOTION, EXPRESSION, AND STORY MEET.

I’M JENNY, A LIFESTYLE, PORTRAIT, AND EVENT PHOTOGRAPHER & VIDEOGRAPHER

I do this to hold space for people to show up fully as themselves.

Photography and film give us the ability to slow down, connect, and preserve moments that would otherwise pass too quickly. My goal is to create a supportive, comfortable experience where authenticity leads the way—turning fleeting moments into imagery that feels honest, emotional, and lasting.

Fact 1

I’m originally from Asheville, North Carolina, and I think growing up surrounded by nature shaped the way I see light, movement, and story.

Fact 2

Before photography and film, I was a collegiate beach volleyball player—and I now coach, which heavily influences how I bring energy, encouragement, and teamwork into every shoot.

Fact 3

I’m a natural hype person, whether I’m behind the camera or on the sidelines—confidence and trust are everything to me.

Fact 4

When I’m not shooting or coaching, you’ll probably find me at the beach with my dog Joy, chasing sunsets and going on little adventures.

Testimonials

Jenny was amazing to work with. I scheduled her at the last minute, and she was able to accommodate everything I needed without any hesitation. She went above and beyond by scouting locations for my surprise engagement photoshoot, and made us feel extremely comfortable during the photoshoot. She was very easy to plan with, communicated often and proactively with me, and took so much stress away from me. She also gave us the finished pictures in just a couple days and they were stunning!  I recommend Jenny to anyone who wants stress free planning, amazing pictures, and someone they can trust with their special moments!

Jenny photographed my surprise engagement and I am so grateful that my fiancé chose her!! She made a camera-shy couple feel comfortable in such a private, emotional moment. From the very start, she felt more like a friend than a stranger, which made the entire experience so relaxed and enjoyable. On top of all that, the photos were BEAUTIFUL and better than I could have ever imagined — Jenny was an absolute pro, and we’ll treasure these photos forever.

I had such an amazing experience with Jen! In lingerie and minimal clothing, I felt the sexiest I’ve ever felt in a photoshoot and extremely comfortable in all aspects of shooting. She exceeding all of my expectations and the photos/videos absolutely blew me away when I saw them. SO PUMPED to continue working with her!!!
