We are beyond thrilled with Jen, our wedding photographer! From our initial meeting to the delivery of our photos, Jen's professionalism and talent shone through. She has an incredible eye for capturing those special moments, and her attention to detail is impeccable.
During the wedding day, Jen seamlessly blended into the background, yet managed to capture every important moment. Her ability to capture not just poses but genuine emotions is what sets her apart. The candid shots she took are some of our absolute favorites, reflecting the joy and love that surrounded us on our special day.
Jen's friendly and calming demeanor also made the entire process enjoyable. She made us feel at ease, allowing us to be ourselves in front of the camera. The result is a collection of photos that not only document our wedding but truly reflect who we are as a couple.
We can't thank Jen enough for her talent, dedication, and the beautiful memories she has given us. If you're looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond to capture the essence of your day, Jen is the one. We wholeheartedly recommend her!
Thank you, Jen, for being an integral part of our wedding journey.
Jen was amazing to work with from the easy emails and scheduling to working within our needs. She made our short session feel very personal and sweet. She made sure to capture any special requests. Her editing is absolutely gorgeous! She even returned the photos much sooner than expected. I am so impressed by our seamless experience!
Jen knows exactly what she’s doing, but she goes about her shoots in a relaxed way.
She asked us for any specific shots we wanted and 100% delivered.
Because of her personality, it was easy to not worry about photography and just be/act natural throughout the day.
There are WAY more amazing photos than I expected, so I was really impressed with how they turned out.
On another note, her website is really helpful for deciding if you want to go with her style or not. Her photos are amazing on her website and my photos turned out just lovely!
I really gravitated towards the bright and unique nature of Jen’s photography and was so glad she was able to shoot our wedding.
She was amazing to work with. As we were married in August 2020, let’s just say I wasn’t the easiest to pin down on final plans due to COVID. Jen rolled with the chaos and was so understanding when major components like location and time were changing even 2 weeks out from the event. She helped me plan the timing of the day (More than once) and was spot on about how much time the different shots we were hoping to get would take.
The day of, it was so comfortable shooting with her. I’m a fairly awkward person when it comes to photos and having attention on me, she made the whole process feel natural and fun.
We got our photos back in what felt like no time at all and they were AMAZING! I even had one editing request which she was able to work in on a few photos, which I was very appreciative Of and it looked great.
Jen was so much fun to work with! Her passion for photography is wonderful! And he humor is awesome!
Jen is amazing to work with. She is great at capturing the moment as well as the in between moments that always turn out with so much real emotion. Her eye for location and lighting is phenomenal. I love every photo she has taken of me and my man
Jen was the best. She did our engagements and a set of family photos and I was so impressed with her patience, especially with our dog. She also makes all of us look super handsome and cute and not as goofy as we really are. We will continue to book with Jen while we live in Minnesota.
Jen was fantastic and went above and beyond any expectations we had for a wedding photographer. We are both so happy and will cherish these photos. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for phenomenal pics and someone easy to work with!
Jen is AMAZING! Not only did we love her soooo much we booked her twice, but totally intend on booking her again and again! She’s so sweet and friendly and has such a keen eye for photography! And it’s not even her only job! I wish we could have flown her to Austin to be the photographer for our wedding but her little bundle of joy made that not possible. We used her for our engagement photos, as well as some additional family photos. Love love love her!!!
The few things I have noticed from drooling over Jen Montgomery photography's page:
-Her attention to detail!
-She's incredible at capturing just the right moment to convey the emotions happening at that time in a still frame (hard to do)
-She'll make you feel REALLY comfortable in front of the camera because all the smiles ALWAYS look genuine
-She'll help you if you don't know how to pose (because somehow her subjects seem to always look like expert models)
-THE COLORS! The way she edits. She doesn't change the colors.. just enhances them brilliantly so you can truly experience every vivid detail in the photo
-Quality! The amount of work she must put into every photo must be absurd because every image comes back looking INCREDIBLE!
I highly encourage you to book your next engagement/wedding/day in the life photo session with Jen Montgomery Photography! You'll have genuine smiles too knowing you're going to get back an amazing finished product!
Jen is an amazing photographer! She is so easy to work with. Goes with the flow well, which was great since we eloped and just kind of winged everything. She had great ideas for the photos, and we love the pictures so much. I would highly recommend Jen.
I have been admiring Jen’s photography for over 3 years now and this year I had the pleasure to work with her for our family holiday photoshoot. She is amazingly talented, she plays beautifully with light and color and can turn absolutely anything into a piece of art. During our shoot she was very easy going and friendly and made both myself and my husband but also our dog baby feel comfortable.
The photos turned out more beautiful than I imagined, they truly look like out of a holiday magazine. Not to mention that she delivered the photos a whole week early, so we had them in time for sending out our holiday cards. I could not recommend her enough and I am looking forward to having her capture future moments of our family.
I can certainly attest to her attention to detail, flexibility, and willingness to accommodate to fit the ever changing issues of such an important day.
Jen Montgomery’s Photography has an UNPARALLELED eye for design as well as elegance and opulence. I give this 5 stars for the artistry and development-no other person makes things as fun and convenient for you as Jen!
Having true PaSSIoN for perfection as well as beauty and clarity in any image set or design /project-package; She delivers as well as undertakes in shooting as well as crafting in her many mediums and vastly uniquely different styles for her many subjects of artistic and business portrait and contemporary style focus.
Beyond traditional and impressionistic /modern style in common everyday boudoir photos -she adds an openess and brilliance as well as a flair for the dramatic of that fun fully functional character and glimpse into the world of artistic and professional photography that everyone hopes for in a photograph or specific artistic notion to recreate a particular memory or mood to be captured and cherished forever.
She dominates In the field of clear definition of personifying high end appeal to any large group gathering or big or small companies needs including local -family- friend of the business persons’ private or public special occasions and weddings parties and gala events’. Her pictures and artwork not only tells your story -it captivates your entire heart and fully exposes the beauty of the moment you are seeking to preserve in its entirety for any magic you wish illuminate!
Very high resolution -perfectly natural and or surreal type landscape and fantasy themes and more!
In short it’s amazing! Jen is the go to for any of your particular interests when it comes to a fun random shoot or important function and special occasions or photo arrangements of any sort.
Best, love and gratitude 🙏🏻 ! Thank you for sharing and helping to create such beautiful memories!

Jen was our photographer for our Engagement and our amazing Nautical wedding on Lake Minnetonka. She was very flexible and made sure that the specific photos we wanted were taken. She was able to get every shot that we had hoped for! Our photos were done in a timely manner and arrived in a cute little box with all of them on a USB flash drive. What ever you want Jen will make sure that she satisfies your photography needs! Love you JEN! <3
Jen did an amazing job with our wedding photos! Everything we wanted and more!
I will continue to rave and highly recommend Jen forever! She was so much fun to work with and really captured everything I wanted in my wedding photos! I was worried about timing and getting all the pictures I wanted but everything went as planned and super smooth with no issues. I love every single picture and even my husband, who hates pictures, was so happy with all of them. I will definitely be hiring her again.
Jen went above and beyond for my husband and I. She worked with our budget and was super timely and professional. We had a destination wedding and everything we did with her was flawless. From the time we started discussing pricing till the wedding was over, we couldn't have asked for more.
Jen did an amazing job. She took all my ideas and really brought them to fruition. We got married outdoors in a garden and all of our photos are unique and full of color. We got tons of edited photos back, plus black and white versions. She always responds to emails and she got our final photos back to us ahead of schedule. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos, too!
My husband and I were beyond satisfied with having Jen as our photographer. From the planning before the wedding to the day of. Everything went smoothly, and our photos were stunning!l. We have received so many compliments on our wedding pictures! I am so thankful that we chose her to capture the details of one of the most important days of our lives. I would highly recommend Jen to anyone looking for a photographer.
Jen is an incredibly talented photographer! My husband and I are not typically comfortable in front of a camera, and worried about our engagement and wedding photos looking posed and unnatural, but Jen made both experiences fun and relaxed and managed to bring our personalities and relationship to life through photography. Every photo we received from her was beautiful and she managed to capture all the little details about our big day, some of which I wouldn't have gotten to see without photos! Jen was so easy to work with, just the right combination of personal yet professional, and never left our questions unanswered. I highly recommend her!!
Jen is amazing! Every single picture we got was absolutely stunning. She has so many unique and fun ideas that turned out amazingly. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.
Jen did the most beautiful work for our engagement photos! She was so kind too, she went out of her way to travel from the cities all the way up to Gooseberry falls. It made it so much more special to be in a location that was completely natural in beauty. Her final product was just gorgeous! I can not wait for our wedding day now!
Jen Montgomery is amazing to work with! Professional, easy to communicate with. Her photos are just beautiful. We are a wedding gown design and whenever we work with her we get the best reaction from those photos!
Did an amazing job for my best friends wedding!
Jen was a wonderful engagement and wedding photographer. We are so incredibly pleased with our wedding photos. The quality is very high and she creates stunning photographic memories to last forever!
