Jenna is by far the best vendor we hired for our big day, but my fiancé and I were initially pretty stressed about picking a photographer. First of all, the photographs are one of the few things that will actually last through the years. Second..., we were traveling from out of state and knew we were relying heavily on recommendations for where and when to take our photos, and third- we are just not the ‘photo’ type. I mean that in the sense that we always seem to be too caught up in the moment to think about getting photos, so we have very few of them. While I’m sure it’s not the worst problem to have, it typically makes us feel pretty out of our element when in front of a lens. But this was one of the (many) reasons why Jenna was such an unbelievable asset to us. Aside from having an amazing eye and such a great style that truly shines through her work, she works in a very photo-journalistic way, as well. Of course, she will get the posed family shots that you want and need to have, but where she really shines is at capturing genuine moments that you don’t even recall her being there for! (Seriously, she might be a ninja, but that’s a totally different thing altogether) Our photos brought us to tears because they contain all of those tiny tendencies which most outsiders wouldn’t even seem to notice, but you and your spouse will immediately recognize. I’m talking about the way my husband’s eyes get squinty when he smiles big enough and how I tend to tilt my head back as if I’m looking up at the ceiling when I belly-laugh. Jenna makes sure to grab onto those little things that make each of you, you and translate them into something timeless. On top of that, she was so easy to work with! You’ll inevitably spend a lot of time with your photographer, because they’re by your side capturing each moment as it happens. When faced with day-of decisions in response to the rain and snow (despite how much we planned and scrutinized the forecast), Jenna was so calm and collected. Her experience truly shined in times that most people would have been stressed. In fact, I know that her experience and suggestions were crucial for keeping us on track for our day. She’s a big part of the reason why we had everything seem to miraculously ‘fall into place’ in the way that it did, despite facing a snowstorm AND a rainstorm within the same three hour time frame. Seriously, thank you SO much, Jenna! We cannot stress how thankful we are to have had you play such a significant role in the biggest day of our lives and we can’t wait to share more big moments with you in the future.
