Jenna Marie Weddings

If you are looking for a wedding photographer, you must have Jenna. I cannot express enough how fantastic she is. I was speaking with my wedding planner about what kind of photos I wanted on the wedding day and she immediately mentioned Jenna and I am so glad she did! I went to her website and fell in love with her style of photos. Reached out to her and she quickly responded. We "met" on the phone and had a great conversation. She took our engagement pictures on a HOT summer day in downtown Charleston and Folly Beach - and despite the heat, made us (a couple who is not comfortable in front of a camera) feel like we were models. She is amazing, makes you feel comfortable, and genuinely makes you feel like a forever friend. When I saw her on the wedding day I was relieved as she takes away all the nervous feelings for photos. You will not regret hiring Jenna. Thank you for everything!

Jenna did an amazing job on our wedding day, and engagement pictures! She was extremely helpful throughout the process, and went out of her way to make sure we were happy the whole way through. She went above and beyond for us. I would recommend Jenna to anyone looking to get married in the Charleston, SC area!

Jenna was the perfect photographer for our big day! She was so helpful and patient throughout the entire process, but especially on the day of. We're not picture people, but she was great at giving us direction and making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Our entire bridal party loved her! She made sure to get every picture combination we wanted with our families in a quick amount of time. She was also by our side with suggestions and tips throughout the reception! We are so happy we went with Jenna! She helped make our day perfect!

Jenna is an amazing photographer. I knew from the very beginning just by looking at her website and Instagram. Her style matched perfectly with my wedding style. She is the nicest person and very easy to deal with. She did my engagement photos (which is free with the wedding package) and they came out beautiful. We felt so comfortable having her take our photos. She knows the perfect angles and spots to take a picture. She also recommended my hair and makeup (Pampered & Pretty) and my officiant (Fr. Sean Poland) which were great as well. She also has the cutest store in West Ashley called Fourteen & East. They have amazing locally made Charleston goods. If I could I would buy everything in the store! Highly recommend Jenna!!

Jenna was so so sweet to work with! I had a ton of requests for my big day as I have a large family and jenna got them all done ! She knew what she was looking for and you have 100% trust as soon as you meet her. She responds quickly to requests and pays attention to close detail. She was able to shoot our rehearsal dinner the night before which added a great touch to the wedding weekend ! So many pictures were taken that night and she never stopped until the very last minute ! Every time my husband and I asked something of her she was there to get it done ! Jenna’s work is amazing !

We chose Jenna as our photographer for our wedding at Alhambra Hall in Mt. Pleasant in April 2017. Jenna was extremely responsive throughout our booking process, and she was also very quick to schedule our engagement photo session. We took photos downtown Greenville in all of the locations that mean so much to us, and she also was wonderful working with and letting us include our golden mix Lilly into the engagement photos! Jenna went above and beyond for our engagement photo session in May 2016, and we appreciated the time she took with us and the lovely portraits we got in a timely manner. The next time we saw Jenna was at our wedding in Charleston 11 months later. The 650+ photo she returned to us were beautiful, edited perfectly and touched most of the important parts of our wedding. She knew how to get everyone to pose, has a great vision, and made it fun! We had only a few points of concern which we think may have been explained a little later. There were several fairly normal detail shots that I didn't specifically list out for her that were missed. While we are grateful for the photos we do have, we are missing photos of our ceremony musician, the “better together” chair signs on the back of the bride/groom chairs, photos of the food/drink menu, as well as photos of our food. Our advice is to be sure your shot list is extremely detailed, even for the obvious shots. Her second shooter was over 45 minutes late groomsmen getting ready location, and she only got about 5-10 minutes of photos before having to leave for our first look. It was because of traffic, but it was very disappointing. It kept seeming to us like the Jenna we had at our engagement shoot was different than the Jenna we had at our wedding. Her attention to schedule seemed distracted, and she release our ‘sneak peek’ about a month later than communicated (yes, admittedly we were overly eager newlyweds). Right around this time she announced that she was opening a gift shop, and it occurred to us that maybe wedding photos were no longer her primary focus. She was probably understandably consumed with everything going on to open the shop, but it was a noticeable contrast to our experience before. I was also surprised that she no longer offered wedding alumbs, as I planned on ordering one from our first meeting. Ultimately, we love all of our photos from Jenna and believe she is great photographer.

I wish I had more stars to give Jenna! She not only captured the Earth Day spirit on our wedding day, but helped us create it all along through engagement photos and bridal portraits. She knows how to take the outdoors and make it elegant. Jenna, thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for all of your hard work and friendship throughout this experience! I would highly recommend!

2016 was an amazing year for my Husband and I and we have Jenna to thank for capturing so many of our favorite memories from it! The thought of planning a wedding from a different state was initially very intimidating, but from the moment we viewed Jenna’s work online, we knew she was the photographer we wanted to capture our wedding. This feeling was amplified when we met her for the first time for our engagement shoot, during our second and final trip to Charleston during the planning process! Jenna made the session so fun and easy and was extremely professional. By the end of the shoot we felt extremely comfortable with Jenna, and like we had known her forever. We couldn’t stop smiling from all the compliments she was giving us and how special she made us feel! Having this opportunity to work with Jenna for our engagement photos put us at ease for our wedding photos, as we knew her style and she knew exactly the types of pictures we were looking for – especially once we saw the results! She answered my (MANY) emails leading up to our wedding day so quickly, and always put me at ease with her replies. Jenna was composed, timely, professional and proactive on our wedding day. She coordinated photo schedules seamlessly (we were even done ahead of schedule!) and captured truly beautiful photos that have (and so deserved it) been been published on so many wedding forums! Having made the decision to forego a videographer, we could not have felt that we made a better decision after the fact, as Jenna produced stunning photos that we will continue to look at fondly year after year. To cap off our amazing year, Jenna curated a gorgeous wedding album that captures our entire wedding day perfectly, which we just received and cannot stop looking at! I recommend you call Jenna ASAP and lock her down for your big day as she will be one of the BEST decisions you make during your wedding planning process!

My husband and I recently got married in beautiful Charleston almost 2 weeks ago and Jenna was hands down one of our favorite people to work with! We planned our small, destination wedding from afar in a couple of short months which left me a nervous wreck since I wouldn't have time to meet with any of our vendors prior to the wedding. Well Jenna certainly did not disappoint! Our wedding planner sent over several photographers portfolios to review but after seeing hers, my husband and I were both knew she was the one. We were thrilled to death that she was available the day of our wedding and from the moment we finally got to meet her in person, I knew we had made the right decision. Jenna is simply amazing - not only is she so kind and sweet, she's also funny and so easy to work with. And then there are the photos! We've been lucky enough to see a sneak peek and we were floored. She is a true genius and we are so grateful that we got to work with her! If you need a photographer, Jenna is definitely the right choice!!!

I honestly don't think that i have ever felt more fabulous in my entire life than when we did our engagements and wedding photos with Jenna! Not only are here photos these iconic magazine-worthy shots that will make you wonder "did i really look that good?" but she completely puts you at ease with styling tips, posing suggestions, and advice for planning photos on your big day. Honestly, if you want a photog that will capture every moment beautifully and make it so you just cuddle with your new hubby and smile with your bridesmaids, hire Jenna right now! As soon as my husband and i got engaged, we booked her, since after shooting all of our friends' weddings, i knew there was no one else we would trust to document our wedding day. She honestly went above and beyond- including shooting our engagement photos in Seattle WA when she was in town for a destination wedding and making it through out 100 degree wedding day. If you want an amazing photographer combined with creativity, style, and general fabulousness, just talk to Jenna. When you have canvases of her photos on every wall of your house, you'll know you made the right decision!!! Ps. I was so excited to get both our engagement photos and of course our wedding photos back, and Jenna certainly delivered with sneak peaks starting the day after on Facebook so we could share the memories with all of our family and friends! We cannot wait to get our easy to share and download digital image gallery for our wedding day like we did with our engagements!

Jenna was absolutely amazing! From the time we booked with her until the end of our wedding, she made the process fun and easy. She arrived early the day of the wedding and didn't skip a beat. She was upbeat and came up with some great ideas for shots (including ones that included our dog!). Our wedding was only a few weeks ago but from the pictures that we have seen, I know we're going to love them all!

We found Jenna through a referral from another well known photographer, Dana Cubbage. Jenna's rates were reasonable and her work was stunning. My fiance and I enjoyed getting to know Jenna during our engagement photos, which really did make us more comfortable for our photos on our big day. Jenna went over and above in terms of not only taking beautiful photos, but making sure that I had everything I needed the day of. Seriously - she even kept appearing with cocktails for me! Jenna is professional, super friendly, and talented to boot. She has great suggestions for different shots and really knows what looks good if you just trust her. She had "sneak peaks" up online the day following the wedding and has already posted an entire preview album on Facebook for my friends and family to enjoy. Once all pictures are finished being edited, a link is provided for download at no extra expense, unlike some horror stories I have heard about other photographers. My only regret is that the wedding is over so I cannot work with Jenna again!

Jenna is such a talented photographer. Super professional, easy to communicate with, and best of all takes absolutely incredible pictures. I knew this was my photographer as soon as I met with her. She was very relaxed, easy to talk to, and seemed genuinely excited to work with us. Our engagement photos turned out great, we got to have multiple outfits and she gave us some great ideas for location. My husband hates taking photos and she was able to make him feel comfortable and prepped him for the wedding day. The day of Jenna was fantastic, as well as the second shooter. She took amazing shots while staying "behind the scenes". I have already recommended her to multiple brides, and will continue to do so. We are so happy that Jenna was able to capture our special day, we could not have asked for more beautiful memories.

Jenna was hands down, 100%, my favorite wedding vendor to work with. I think it’s normal – and very important – for a bride to feel a connection with their wedding day photographer. You spend your whole day with this person ! Jenna and I met multiple times before the wedding - our first interaction at a coffee shop while I was interviewing several photographers (again looking for that right connection, plus great photos.) The day I met Jenna I finally knew the photographer I wanted to work with. I still gave myself a few days to not make a rushed decision, and consulted with my then fiancé as he’s really the one who had the design and creative eye. He thought her work was great – and he is not easy to impress. Her pricing was also fair – we looked at several photographers with less experience and a lot less talent who charged more than Jenna. No photographer is cheap, but we at least felt really GOOD about paying Jenna what she truly deserved. We continued interacting through emails and a few phone calls. Jenna also helped us brainstorm as we came up with where to do the engagement photos. Note: Engagement photos was not something we really wanted/needed – but I now LOVE the pictures we received from our session and it really does help you get to know and feel comfortable with your photographer and their poses before the big day. Jenna also kindly met with me before the wedding to discuss details, and look at the different rooms we’d be in to help me make decisions and feel comfortable about photography on the wedding day. By the end of the process, I feel like I’ve made a friend. Jenna is the only vendor that I hope to stay in touch with. I was so picky about our photographer – I interviewed, made spreadsheets, cost compared, really mulled over this decision. At this point, I couldn’t be happier, and would not hesitate to recommend Jenna full heartedly. We’ve only received the “sneak peek” photos so far, but everyone is just floored with how beautiful they are. I’ve received calls from family and friends that are just to tell us how much they love the photos. Friends, family, and even acquaintances are sharing the link on facebook! On that note, Jenna doesn’t prevent the sharing of her photos – she has both a facebook present, and shares her photos through Pass. Pass is a brides dream – I was delighted to see she used it. It allows your photos to be organized, stored and shared online in a beautiful presentation. It’s easy to look at the pictures and formats perfectly for PC, Apple, tablets and phones. It also allows the bride and groom to download all the pictures in one easy click of the button, and guests to pick and choose which ones they want to download. I can’t seem to stop writing – I just want to sing the praises of Jenna Marie Weddings because I couldn’t be happier!

I looked all over for a wedding photographer who would capture my big day in a beautiful and artistic way. The last thing I wanted was too many posed pictures, I wanted beautiful photographs that could be displayed and appreciated for years to come. Jenna more than delivered. Her incredible eye and talent for angles and lighting made every photo a work of art that captured the love and beauty of the day. I cannot express how much I recommend Jenna. She captured the most beautiful day of my life and working with her was a joy. She is professional, young and vibrant and fully in love with her job and all the couples she works with. Trust me when I say that choosing Jenna was the best and easiest decision of the wedding planning process.

From the time we first meet with Jenna we knew we wanted her as our photographer! We had an instant creative connection and although she is young I believe that is a benefit because she still has alot of passion and creativity. She arrived on time and was very professional! Her assistant was very helpful holding my bouquet and dress when needed. I've only gotten a few pictures back so far but what I have seen looks amazing and I can't wait to see the rest! She is also willing to work with any budget and was able to create us a custome package to fit our needs.

So far Jenna has been a complete joy to work with. My wedding budget is beyond tight and she has been nothing but flexible an accommodating to me. Her work is fantastic!

Jenna Maria Photography was more then just a photographer at our wedding, she became a friend. She knows exactly what questions to ask to figure out your style to make your wedding albumn perfectly represent you, your spouse, family and friends. Don't miss out on having Jenna as your photographer she will make your perfect day stand still forever! Thank you Jenna!

We couldn't be more happy with Jenna and the moments that she captured on our big day! We HIGHLY recommend her for ANY event you may have.
