Jenn Ocken Photography

us with her comfortable laid back approach to everything. Jenn was amazing at our wedding. She got some ah-mazing shots, and we didn't even know she was there taking pics, some of the time, with everything being to busy and time a-flyin'. Can't said enough good about her and the photographs. Jenn is the full package. Wouldn't have done anything different if I had it to do again.

for our engagement session, and that was just after talking for a few minutes! She is extremely creative and her work is gorgeous. She is also very friendly and passionate about photography. Her staff is helpful and has been easy to work with. I'm looking forward to working with her for our wedding next April. Definitely book Jenn for all of your photography needs. You won't regret it!

ncompased the whole "feel" of the event, absolutely stunning. Her personality makes everyone feel that they are so special to her camera and her clients.

and the moments. Jenn made the event better because of her personal knowledge of how everyone is thinking, how she interacts, and what makes it all special!!

uld show me their work but I just didn't feel anything for them. I ran across Jenn's name on 3 seperate occasions and knew that I had to meet this woman. As soon as I walked into her office my heart told me that this was right. She oozes creativity, positivity, and love. Wedding photos are very personal and they are something that you will hold close to your heart. Don't you agree that the person taking the photos should have a spot in your heart as well? Jenn's love for life has inspired me on so many levels. I have never believed that mine and my husbands wedding would be the last occasion we would see Jenn. I cannot imagine not having some sort of interaction with her for the rest of my life (whether that means having her take our picture or just meeting for coffee). Everything that Jenn touches becomes beautiful art. Before you choose a photographer meet with Jenn first. Even if you can only talk on the phone with her you will sense her love for what she does (our first conversation was over the phone and we talked for over a hour and a half about everything she does). The word regret does not and will never exist in the same sentence as the name Jenn Ocken. She is an amazing part of the world and I can only wish that everyone who reads this will agree with me.

wn with every possible family combination for our group shots. I wanted to keep it short and get everyone to the party and she effortlessly and smoothly honored my wishes. She really listened to what we wanted and it was executed flawlessly. I didn't have to worry about anything throughout the night. She made sure I was where I needed to be without making anything feel forced or fake. We had an amazing time and the pictures truly reflect that. (I didn't even know the DJ played "Shout" until I saw the pictures, haha)

stunning, creative photos of before, during, and after the ceremony. I would highly recommend her!

wedding, I still have family telling me how wonderful she and her staff were on top of taking AMAZING pictures. Jenn is like no other. She truly captures the moment in ways you can't imagine. Every photo is frame-worthy, seriously. I did not see her or her assistants at the reception because they were that good at blending in and making you forget they are even there. She put a smile on everyone's face and made every moment special. Family members even took selfies with her because she is just that much fun. I love that she gives direction in order to get the best photo. You don't realize how important this is until you are around a photographer who is too meek to tell you to stand up straight and your photos come out looking awful. Even if you have a small budget, make sure you include Jenn Ocken Photography in it. You will not regret it.

to locations. We didn't use them for engagement photos or bridals, but overall would recommend them for the wedding!

yle. Obviously a veteran of hundreds of weddings, Jenn was also a huge asset in coordinating the event, both before and during the wedding/reception - helping us navigate all the pictures we needed, corralling family, and making sure we got to talk to everyone and have a picture of our time with them. Her staff is courteous and professional as well, and delivered everything in a timely manner. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!

ture our style perfectly, as though she had known us for years. The pictures are truly outstanding and will be cherished for a lifetime. Jenn and her staff were also very accommodating. Anytime I had questions or needed anything from them, they were available and very helpful. Jenn Ocken Photography not only captured the memories of our wedding, they also helped in making the day stress free and fun. Thank you Jenn Ocken Photography!

o tell you about it JENN herself. As a Catering Manager at a 4 Diamond Hotel in Baton Rouge, I was lucky to already know Jenn when I started planning my own wedding. She photographed many of the weddings I'd planned at the hotel. The first time I introduced my mom to her, she fell in love with her, too. With a camera shy fiance, I was worried about our pictures from the very beginning of our planning process. I knew that Jenn would put him at ease, though, and I knew that she would be able to capture the "us" that I love. And she did! Working with her and her team after the wedding has been incredibly easy, too. Communication is quick and easy. CHOOSING is hard! But that's a good thing. I want to print everything! Pictures are the only thing that last forever. Choose a photographer that you get along well with. If you don't love your photographer, then you probably won't love your pictures. I don't know how you won't love this woman. Meet her! See her work! Choose her! It will be the best choice you make for your wedding.

always such a pleasure to work with her. She always goes the extra miles to ensure the happiness of her groups even helping with jobs that are not specifically photographer duties. You will love having her as part of your special occasions!

ause she was my first choice for engagement, wedding, and new born pictures. God has blessed Jen with an amazing gift and it is my pleassure to share it with the world. I can't wait to work with her again in the near future!!!! With Love, Micah, Jessica, & Sawyer Magee

ents that I hoped they would. On top of that Jenn is so much fun to be around. I highly highly recommend Jenn Ocken Photography!

iful photographs, but she made us feel like family. She will definitely be our photography for all the big events in the rest of my husband and I's life. If you want your day to be as wonderful as mine was then go with Jenn Ocken. We love you Jenn (and Eddie too)!!!!

out in whatever way she can! She was just a joy! But ok, back to the pictures. They are absolutely gorgeous, and she captured precisely what I wanted. I wanted artistic, journalistic photography and she delivered. She made me look like a model. She caught the candids we so desired, while getting all of the essential posed photographs. The photos were the most important thing to me and I thank God that I found Jenn.

arried so if I have any say in the matter, we'll be using Jenn for the next two weddings also!!

e eye! The world needs to know that Jenn Ocken is beyond awesome as a person & photographer! I would highly recommend her a million times over! She is a must to capture everything that is important (especially to you)!

easy to work with, laid back and went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of at our reception when she didn't have too. Do not think twice about another photgrapher if you are considering Jenn- no doubt you will be extremely satisfied!

n!

t like one of the family. I think my mom wants to adopt her.

spirit and personality. She gets to know the family dynamic so she doesn't miss any important shots and knows her couples just as well! I would recommend Jenn for any weddings or events!!!

I could fully comprehend & appreciate that Jenn had the ability to capture the shot without intruding on the moment. Jenn was fun, professional, and was able to role with ease through all of the surprises of the special day.

creative, and photo-journalistic way. Jenn is a must.

g. Our photos are gorgeous and timeless, and the EMOTIONS captured are such a gift. The day passed way too quickly, but Jenn managed to capture the moments. It was like Christmas to see our photos for the first time, and every time we look at them we go back in time! My family loves them too :) And, to top it off, she's hilarious and honest - both quite useful on your wedding day! You can't go wrong with JOP!!!

for capturing moments unlike any other. Her creativity shows and shines in every picture she takes. She is my number one choice in my up and coming wedding. Can't wait!

life with honesty and beauty. She's not afraid to get down and dirty to get the best photo because it's not about her, it's about us.. her clients. The reason she does what she does is because of us. If I had to do it all over again, I would have absolutely chosen Jenn Ocken Photography to document the most special day of my life.

personable, and very, very professional! From the first time I contacted her, she was quick to respond and very willing to answer any questions or concerns. There was never any confusion about the time or the cost or what we would be getting. She and her assistants took wonderful photos, capturing all of the special moments of the day. When the wedding plans hit a snag a few weeks before the ceremony (a snag that had NOTHING to do with the photograph), Jenn stepped in and saved the day. She is more than a photographer -- she is now a true family friend!

Jenn Ocken Photography completely stands out among the rest! I didn't feel like I was was posing with a glued on smile like most senior pictures; I actually felt like she was capturing memories and genuine emotions. I felt that my sessions was truly valued and that I wasn't just another client at JOP. I can't wait to see the outcome of my amazing senior session! I can only imagine how great the photos will come out, if my experience felt as wonderful as it did! I would HIGHLY recommend Jenn Ocken Photography to anyone who is looking to capture those special memories in a way that you will cherish forever!
