Hey, Lovely!

Meet Jenna

Photographer. Lover of marriage. Travel obsessed. Enneagram 4. Nacho Enthusiast. Believer that the most magical of images are made up of emotion, connection, and light.

Looking back, it seems so obvious now that photography was always meant to be part of my life. But the path here wasn’t linear—it was filled with moments of discovery, courage, and a whole lot of love.

It all began one Christmas morning when my parents gifted me a Kodak film camera. At just eight years old, I was already captivated—documenting everything from posed moments to candid snapshots, preserving stories the only way I knew how.

Years later, with a journalism degree in hand, I pursued a career in PR, capturing stories with words instead of images. But the pull toward photography remained, and I eventually found the courage to leave my corporate path behind to follow it.

I told myself I’d never photograph weddings. But as life often does, it surprised me. Saying yes to my first wedding unlocked something deeper—being present for raw, emotional moments of love and family felt like a privilege I couldn’t turn away from.

But God had something different in mind.

Holding my daughter, Maddy, for the first time changed everything. Experiencing firsthand how quickly those early days slip by has transformed my work. I now photograph with the heart of a mother—focused on preserving not just how moments look, but how they feel.

Whether I’m documenting a wedding or the quiet magic of a newborn session, I’m drawn to the same purpose: capturing love, connection, and the stories you’ll hold onto forever.

If you’re drawn to heartfelt, timeless imagery that tells your story with honesty and care, I’d be honored to be part of your journey.

1. My Whole Heart

I’m married to my best friend, Steven, and together we’re raising our sweet daughter, Madi. Our home is filled with belly laughs, bedtime stories, and the kind of moments you wish you could bottle up forever.

It’s in these fleeting, ordinary days that I’ve found life’s greatest beauty—moments that inspire me to capture the tenderness, connection, and love that make your family’s story uniquely yours.

2. Duchess
Named after a character in a Disney movie, this sweet little soul makes my day, everyday. Her cuddles and quirks, her playfulness and cat naps – life just wouldn’t be the same without her presence.

3. Travel
We haven’t been everywhere but it’s on our list! Steven and I live for travel. There is just something magical about experiencing new cultures and cuisines, learning about different ways of doing life, and, of course, seeing the wonders of the world through your own eyes.

4. Memories
I’m an enneagram 4 through and through. This sentimental heart of mine treasures memories, nostalgia, and photographs. My most prized possessions are my family’s photo albums, and it’s what inspires my photography: the idea that I’m helping you create family heirlooms to be passed on for generations to come.

THE HEART BEHIND THE PHOTOS

My Philosophy

Your story is what makes you special: the people you love, the memories you share, and the unique beauty only you can add to our little world. Your story is worth telling and it’s worth remembering in years to come.

Photography is my favourite form of storytelling because it’s the closest we’ll ever get to time travel. In twenty years time when you’ve forgotten the details of your story and can only remember vaguely, it’s your photographs that take you back to vividly relive those moments. And that, my friends, is magic.

“We are, as a species, addicted to story. Even when the body goes to sleep, the mind stays up all night, telling itself stories.” – Jonathan Gottschall
