Jennifer did an amazing job capturing beautiful pictures of our special day. I’m so happy with the pictures she captured of every special moment on our wedding day. She is such an amazing person. She made us feel so comfortable taking all of those pictures. Especially because we aren’t big picture people!
She was also able to reel in my crazy loud family for a group picture.
Jen, Cassie, Grace, and David worked with us on our wedding on 1/27/2024. Each of them took great care in paying attention to us, what we were comfortable with, and how to capture our love story. Everyone was so fun to work with, and while we were both nervous to be photographed that day, they made sure we felt comfortable and beautiful. We recommend Jen Hyde Photography to anyone having their wedding!
We love Jen and her team!!! She was absolutely amazing to work with! She was so easy going and really helped us navigate the day!!! Multiple guests commented on how great she was with navigating photos!!! Rebecca was our other photographer and she was just as fantastic to work with!!! We could not recommend Jennifer Hyde Photography enough!
EDIT/UPDATE: While our pictures turned out great (and got them back after about 12 weeks), our video package was very difficult to receive back. Without going into too much detail, there were a lot of deadline promises that were not kept. It took 8 months to get our videos back and only after we consulted a lawyer. It became increasingly hard to communicate with Jennifer and we felt as though we were not being told the truth about the progress of our video.
—————————————
I cannot say enough about JHyde Photography! Jen and her team were the absolute best people to work with. During our photographer search, Jen made time to answer all of our questions via call/text/email. Her prices are very comparable to other photographers in the area. Jen shot both our engagement photos and wedding photos. The entire shoot she made us feel very comfortable and natural. Guiding us through each pose, making us feel like a million bucks! Her system to view and download photos is user friendly. Her photos are light, airy, timeless. For our wedding, she was literally everything. She knew exactly what she was doing, knew how to handle our large bridal party, and get all the family in order. She took all of the shots I requested and more. She is so friendly and real. I would 100000% hire Jen again.
Jen is absolutely amazing and we are so in love with our engagement photos! We spent hours researching the perfect photographer for our wedding and are so lucky we found Jen. She was super responsive to our questions and took the time to get to know myself and my fiancé and what we were looking for. At our engagement session she made us super comfortable and we had such a fun time. Our engagement photos are stunning and we couldn’t be more excited for her to photograph our wedding next year!
I don’t usually write reviews and I especially don’t normally give one star but I felt it was important to let other people know about our experience with this photographer. We spent approximately $4,500 on our wedding package with Jen and she seemed great at first. She did an engagement photo session with us and we liked how the photos came out! However, the problem that we had was that she texted me at 7:45pm the night before our wedding letting me know she wasn’t going to be able to make it because she wanted to spend time with her son and she was sending a backup photographer in her place (we paid for 2 photographers) but not to worry because they had worked together before and there would be no issues! I didn’t have time to meet the new photographer or tell her how I imagined wanting things to go but there was nothing I could do about it and hoped she was right, everything would be fine. The main photographer who showed up was very kind but not at all assertive (which is what my wedding party needed a bit of to stay on track!) and did no coaching to let us know how to pose or where to put our hands, etc. and the back up photographer told us she had never met Jen or the new “main” photographer before and she had hired her off of a Facebook group. I was upset to hear this but let it go. When we got our pictures back I was horribly dissatisfied with the results and reached out to Jen to discuss. She seemed understanding and willing to try to fix the images to my liking. Well after probably 30 text messages following up, and about 10 months after our wedding (3 months after the promised updated/edited photos) she now will not even respond to my texts. Totally disappointed with our experience and the customer service of this “company.” I hope other people don’t have this experience with her but I felt the need to inform others of our experience so they can make their own decisions. Good luck and beware!
Jen was absolutely AMAZING! I researched many, many photographers because this is what you are left with after the wedding. I emailed back and forth with different photographers and looked on instagram and through portfolios to get a feel for each one's aesthetic. Jen was a top contender for me from the very beginning because her photos are so bright and full of emotion. She captures moments that are unique and beautiful. On the day of our wedding, Jen did such an INCREDIBLE job. She took breathtaking photos, thought of new and interesting ways to get a shot, and made everyone feel comfortable. I LOVED so many of our photos! She was definitely one of my favorite vendors and we are so happy we went with her. Take a look at her website and instagram page. You will not be disappointed!
I cannot say enough good things about Jen and her team! From our engagement photos to our wedding photos everything turned out better than I could have imagined! We received our wedding photos within 3 weeks of our wedding and now my husband and I can’t stop looking at them. Every part of the day was captured so perfectly and all the pictures are beautiful. Communication with Jen was super easy as she responded right away with any questions or concerns that I had. I was worried that taking so many pictures the day of the wedding would be dreadful and take up too much time but Jen and her team were so fast and efficient and captured all the pictures I asked! I would recommend Jen over and over again!! Thank you for allowing me to relive my wedding through these pictures
Jen was great! She had great communication and helped us plan the day so that it went smoothly. She was so fun and personable to work with, and I have loved our sneak peaks so far!
If you are looking for a wedding photographer- you HAVE to book Jennifer Hyde Photography. Jenn was absolutely amazing to work with! She did our engagement photos and wedding day photos, and both times made my fiancé and I feel special and happy. She captured the perfect moments of love on those special days. She had us both laughing and reminiscing about our love and it shows in each of the pictures. We weren’t the only ones impressed, even our wedding guests loved her, we heard great feedback all night!
I know choosing a photographer is such an important part of anyone’s big day, so I hope that this helps make that decision a little easier. You will be in the best hands with Jenn.
Jennifer Hyde and Team did an amazing job capturing our wedding day. Jen was easy and enjoyable to work with - super organized the day of and helped keep our large group on track! Thank you Jen and Team!
Jen is the best! She shot our wedding day and engagement photos for us and we got so many amazing photos, we struggled to pick our favorites because there were too many we loved! She was able to work with our big, loud families and all our friends on our wedding day to make sure we got every photo combination we needed. My husband and I agree that she was our favorite vendor from our wedding day! You won't regret working with Jen and her team!
Jen was an absolute pleasure to work with as our wedding photographer. She was patient, posed, and made us and our wedding party feel at ease while being photographed. She has a great eye for the perfect shot and made sure I was looking my best throughout the day. We shot at multiple different locations around Chicago and truly captured my dream scenic photos. Jen was able able to work efficiently to capture so many wonderful moments. I would definitely recommend Jennifer Hyde Photography for those seeking a photographer in the Chicagoland area.
The best of the best! Our photos are amazing, could not be happier.
Jen was amazing at helping to create beautiful little moments. She really understood what was important to us from the very beginning—capturing moments as they happened and getting images that we can pass down for generations to come—she understood this sentiment and worked with us, letting us be ourselves but also guiding us and helping to get those shots. We aren’t used to being the center of attention and it was definitely a shift to have all eyes on us, but Jen made us so comfortable. She made it easy and fun. She was so great about getting us sneak peak photos in such a short amount of time, which made it exciting to see them so quickly.
On our wedding day, Jen was prompt and professional. She brought a calm energy and was efficient. She rolled with the punches and adapted to a few things that went slightly astray from what I had planned, making it all flow seamlessly. She was so great at directing our family and friends in a fun and efficient way. She is very kind and sweet. Hiring any vendor for our wedding, we wanted to make sure that the people we were hiring to be with us on one of the most intimate days of our lives would fit in with everyone and keep our families feeling comfortable—Jen exceeded all of these expectations. It is so natural for her to interact with everyone and guide them to get the shots needed. My family and bridesmaids all said how much they loved our photographer! So thank you, Jen, for making our wedding day so incredible. We’d recommend Jen to anyone looking for a top notch photographer!
Jen is very professional. She was a huge help with coordinating the photo timeline for the day. She asked for specific pictures that we wanted and accommodated special requests. She is very punctual, friendly, and offered valuable advice. From a male’s perspective, I am not always one to be comfortable taking a lot of pictures but Jen made us both feel comfortable in front of the camera. She made it a really fun experience for both engagement pictures and on our wedding day. She was very easy to talk to and I felt like she understood what was important to us. She captured moments that will be keepsakes for a lifetime. So happy that we chose her. She was amazing and we’d recommend her to anyone!
Jennifer is very professional and accommodating - we had first scheduled our engagement photoshoot in August, but it was a very hot day and she recommended we change them to another day to capture the best photos possible. When we rescheduled she was more than happy to work with the dates that fit best with us. She made us feel comfortable and we had a lot of fun during our shoot! I would recommend everyone to use her - we will also be using her for our wedding!
Where do i even begin, Jen is truly so amazing! She just did our engagement session & let us incorporate our son & i could not be more pleased with the photos she has captured! she really did such an amazing job, that i cried! i am just so in love with them! She really knows how to make you feel comfortable in every way. We cannot be happier that we have landed such a great photographer for our big day! I would recommend Jennifer Hyde to anyone i know, truly!
Thank you thank you!!!
Jen was great with EVERYTHING! Her photos were absolutely stunning! She made the day run smoothly and was there to help every step of the way! She relieved so much anxiety I had during the day trying to stay on our timeline! I was able to talk to her throughout the whole wedding planning process. Her whole team was so great! I HIGHLY recommend Jen and her team!
Jen and Tireni were an absolute pleasure to work with!! They were incredibly efficient, fun and calm throughout our entire wedding day. Nothing felt rushed which was a huge relief for myself and my husband. I highly recommend hiring them for your photography needs. We absolutely LOVED having them for our wedding!!
We selected JHyde Photography when we first started planning our wedding in 2019. We booked an engagement session through them and had so much fun taking pictures and getting to know Rebecca, our photographer. She made us feel so comfortable. We originally planned on getting married in 2020 but then postponed until July 2021 and JHyde was more than understanding. They honored our contract and moved dates with us. Our new date did not work for our original photographer but JHyde quickly problem solved and replaced our lead photographer so we did not have to worry. We could not be happier with how everything turned out! Ashley and Melissa were our photographers for our wedding day. They were absolutely wonderful to work with and were so easy going. They were with us through the getting ready process and stayed through most of our reception. After church they helped us problem solve a 2nd picture location due rain so that our we would avoid getting soaked and still have great pictures. They also suggested my husband and I take a special moment for ourselves during our reception where we danced in front of a band that was playing at our venue. It is now such a special memory for us which would have never happened without them! By the end of the night, they felt like not just our photographers but our friends. We did not book a videographer so we relied solely on pictures to capture our big day and our pictures are exactly what we hoped for! Jen has also been so great to work with as well! She has been very helpful and edited our pictures beautifully! We could not be happier with our decision to pick JHyde Photography for our engagement pictures and our wedding day!
I absolutely loved Jen!!! she put up with all my requests and made sure to keep us on time!! she had the perfect timeline for everything and got the best pictures!! she leaked a couple the next day for me to see and I cried happy tears with how beautiful they turned out!!! ❤️
Jen and her team were a joy to work with. Our day would not have been the same if we had worked with a different photography team. Jen and her crew were so invested in our day and truly put all of their effort into capturing every candid moment that arose. Jen was more than a wedding photographer on our day; she truly felt like a guiding/reassuring hand when everything seemed to be flying a million miles an hour. If you're a couple that's on the hunt for the right photographer, look no further. You will meet so many people in the months leading up to the big day as you plan, but meeting with and working with Jen felt like we were meeting with a friend who always had our best interest in mind. I think people with careers in the wedding industry could learn a thing or two from this team. Our photos from our engagement session and the wedding are simply flawless. We wanted everything on our day to be perfect, but Jen made everything on her end perfect and FUN! We are so happy that we made the decision to have Jennifer Hyde Photography & Associates capture and record our special day.
Beautiful pictures! Through the pandemic etc. they were always a constant and said they’d be there! Captured our day perfectly! Rebecca and Jen were so so nice and brought my vision to life!
Rebecca was our photographer and she did an amazing job capturing our special day! Our engagement and wedding pictures turned out wonderful and we could not be happier :) We hope to use her for any professional pictures in the future!
I don’t have enough words to describe how meaningful and appreciated my experience has been with JHyde photography.
Not only is Jen an amazing photographer, she is one who makes all the moments special. This is coming from a COVID bride, who had to postpone her wedding, but still chose to marry in a small intimate ceremony this year. I took a long shot to see if Jen would be available to shoot our small ceremony in a weeks notice (as well as still shoot our big ceremony next year). Without hesitation, she showed up and captured our most special moments. She is not only incredibly talented, but incredibly thoughtful in capturing all the moments that flash by around you, when you’re too busy focusing on your groom!!! 😆She pays attention to detail and listens to what pictures matter to you. She is a person who really cares about her clients and believes in a story of love!!
I would recommend Jen to everyone looking for a thoughtful and talented photographer. We are so looking forward to her capturing more magical moments for us at our big wedding celebration next year!!!
Jenn was so wonderful and completely understood what my husband and I were looking for with our photos. She got us in touch with Kristin, and she was so talented in getting all the shots we wanted and captured the special moments we didn’t know to capture. We look forward to having them back for our anniversary reception and hopefully future family pictures!
Affordable & professional. And amazing final photos!
The team at JHyde Photography is amazing! From the very beginning of our wedding planning, they helped our vision for our wedding photography and videography come to life. Kristin, Rebecca and Ray captured our day so beautifully with great attention to detail. We are so happy with all of them and for their help in making our day so special!
We had the pleasure of having Rebecca as our photographer and she was FANTASTIC! Rebecca is very easy going, flexible, and passionate! She was perfect for our rainy COVID wedding! We could not thank her enough for stopping us in the rain on the pier, these are one of our favorite photos! In addition, we cannot thank Jen and her team enough for editing and handling all of the logistics! You guys made planning a wedding easy! Thank you :)
Jen and her team are truly amazing!! From our first chat I knew that Jen would be our wedding photographer, her energy and excitement could be felt through the phone. She truly took the time to get to know us and wanted to make sure that she could provide us with our perfect pictures! We had an amazing engagement session, my fiancé and I tend to be camera shy but she put us at complete ease and made the day so much fun! Jen and her team have made wedding planning a breeze even with ever changing schedules related to the pandemic. When our wedding had to be postponed Jen and her team had us rescheduled with just one phone call and guaranteed us that they would be with us every step of the way. I am so happy to work with such a wonderful team and am as excited as ever for our wedding day and the beautiful pictures to come!
Jennifer and her team were absolutely amazing to work with! We used them for all day photography and videography for our wedding, and are so in love with the results of everything. They made everything so easy, from working with me to build a package which fit my needs and budget to just being so fun the day of. They kept everything light to have everyone laughing. She was awesome with communicating, especially during a lot of worries of what was going to happen due to covid, but assured me every time that they would do anything they needed to if anything changed. Our families love every picture, and the video just made everyone smile and cry as we relived the day again. They captured everything and more than we could’ve asked for.
There are honestly not enough words to describe our experience with Jen! She is absolutely amazing in every way possible, and she truly made our wedding magical! With Covid taking away so much from us she seemed to bring so much back in making our day beyond special and she went so far above and beyond anything we could have wanted or asked for for our wedding day!
Everyone told us one of the most important vendors you pick is your photographer and honestly Jen is everything you need and more when it comes to your special day and she is so dedicated to making that day special about you!
Apart from her amazing communication and really making you feel like you are the only wedding she is doing for the year in terms of her dedication to you, Jen also is a master at capturing your love, story and day in photos to give you memories you can hold on to for forever!
There is just not enough good things to say AND we had a bridal party of 21 with me and my bride, and she was able to keep us focused and running on schedule while also listening and being open to everyone’s ideas for pictures! We definitely had a goofy group and she captured us perfectly! We couldn’t be happier with her and we are so excited to work with her again next year!
Jen did so much for us and she did so much to make our day special and we could not ever thank her enough for it! She was also great with pivoting when we had some last minute changes! We just honestly could not say enough!
Jen was amazing to work with. Our first engagement session went seamlessly and was truly a dream! She had us pose in ways that were comfortable for us as well as flattering. Honestly could not ask for a better photographer. Definitely worth the price!
I can’t even begin to express just how wonderful Jen and her team truly are. From our initial consult up until today, Jen has been nothing short of amazing to work with. When you picture your wedding, one of the most important parts is making sure you hire a photographer that will capture every perfect moment and that fits what you’re looking for. Let me tell you, Jen will exceed every expectation you could ever dream of! From our engagement pictures and capturing our special pictures with our pups all the way up to our wedding day, I couldn’t be more pleased and ecstatic to have found her. I am so so so beyond blessed to have found her and have the privilege to have her capture our special day. Going through this process during a pandemic was extremely stressful, and having Jen was a true gift. When planning back-up dates, I solely picked them based on her availability because that is how great she truly is and I knew no one would be able to capture my day quite like she could. And she blew every expectation out of the water! She captures every raw emotion, detail, and story in her pictures and I can’t thank her and Rebecca enough for capturing our special day. She is so patient (she had the pleasure of posing me down to my hand 😉), sweet, and truly has a gift. I cannot wait to have her capture our future milestones down the road!
Jen is amazing! She did such an amazing job on our engagement and wedding photos. As someone who has never had professional photos taken, I was nervous and didn't know what to do. Jen know just what to do and say to make me feel comfortable. She gave direction while still letting my fiance and I explore.
She knows her stuff! She has great ideas!
Well first off when my fiancé and I met Jen we instantly clicked! She wanted to know all of the details of our love story. While talking to her I knew I wanted her to be the one to capture our day. We just got our engagement pictures back and wow! They look AMAZING!! Jen was super helpful and sweet the entire time. I truly cannot wait for her to capture our big day next September! She’s the only one who will professionally capture my future pictures! Thank you, Jen!
Jen has gone above and beyond for us. She makes herself readily available, and always has a solution for any potential problem. The photos she takes truly tell a story; she makes it so you never look like you’re posing awkwardly. She’s totally worth it.
My husband and I loved Jen from the moment we first met with her for a consultation. She is friendly, professional, caring, and very knowledgeable. We did not have to think twice before selecting her as our photographer for our wedding. Due to the COVID pandemic, we had to postpone our wedding to next year, but decided to have a small, intimate ceremony in my parent's backyard this summer as well. Jen agreed to come take photos outdoors on a very hot day, and without much notice. We were thrilled that she could be there. She is simply lovely to work with. We received our photos yesterday, and they are absolutely amazing. Jen's ability to capture the wide range of emotions from everyone that was present at our small ceremony was wonderful. All I could do was smile as I went through the photos. What was truly noteworthy was her ability to capture special moments naturally, without us posing. I cannot wait to have her at our big wedding next year!!
We truly could not have found a better person to photograph our most important day. From the moment we met Jen until right now, she has been nothing but wonderful! Our wedding pictures turned out better than we could have imagined. She captured so many beautiful memories that we will be able to cherish forever! From the engagement pictures, to the wedding day, and then the bridal session, it felt like we were hanging out with an old friend while getting our pictures taken. Thank you Jen, for everything!!! xoxo
I DJ'd a wedding that Jennifer was shooting in October 2019. She was an absolute pleasure to work with! She did an outstanding job communicating important information to me, the other vendors, and the wedding guests. The bride and groom had a unique vision for their big day and Jennifer captured the essence of that vision perfectly.
We are so incredibly happy that we chose Jen as our photographer for our engagement photos and wedding!! She is incredibly talented behind the lens and is so sweet, kind, and attentive. She is also extremely organized and was so good at instructing us, our bridal party, and families on how to stand and position to get the most gorgeous photographs I have ever seen. She made my hubby and I feel so relaxed and comfortable at our engagement shoot last December - we had a blast with her and then we’re in awe of the sunrise shots she got of us in Lincoln Park and with the Chicago skyline in the back. We couldn’t wait to see her again this October at the wedding - not just because she is an amazing photographer but because she has such an infectious personality that you just want to be around her! We just got our sneak peak after the wedding and the photographs are absolutely stunning. Jen and her second shooter Rebecca are an incredible team and helped the entire day go by seamlessly. It literally poured all day and they were able to set up portraits under a covered walkway so we could still do portraits outside - you can’t even tell it is raining and you can still see the beautiful fall foliage. The shots are perfect. Then at the venue we got some amazing artsy backlit umbrella shots in the rain that are our favorites - she has an incredible eye! We cannot day enough good things about Jen! Thank you so much for helping make our wedding day so memorable and joyful!!
Rebecca is amazing! She shot our engagement photos and made us feel extremely comfortable. My Fiancé and I are not used to showing a lot of PDA but Rebecca made the process feel so real. Not only that but she also made the experience super fun. It honestly felt more like we were on a really cool date than a photo shoot and we could not be more thankful. As for the pictures, they turned out beautiful! We cannot wait until Jhyde captures our special day!!
My husband and I did not present Jennifer with an easy task at the start of wedding season this past year. We live in Florida and were planning for our wedding to take place in Illinois. That being said most of our vendor shopping was done online. Jennifer had me sold on her and her business from the start. Her website not only was easy to maneuver, it provided all the information needed when searching for vendors. When I reached out to Jennifer and explained our situation, she was more than happy to setup a skype call that would allow us to get to know her, ask any questions, and get our planning started. Throughout the planning process Jennifer was always prompt on response, provided helpful tips along the way, and was more than happy to work with our crazy travel schedules. Jennifer’s true dedication was displayed when she traveled down to Florida to shoot my Husband and I’s engagement photos.
On the day of the wedding Jennifer was amazing. She helped keep our timeline, captured every moment of our special day, and was truly an amazing person to work with. We could not be happier with the final products. Jennifer has a true talent for capturing the special moments and we are so happy we are able to relive our wedding day through her photographs.
Wow...I truly don’t know how to thank Jen and Rebecca for being my photographers on the day of my wedding! Jen was upbeat and continually making sure that I was having a good time which made me feel like she truly cared about my wedding day! Jen kept everyone on time and made sure to get those special shots that I wouldn’t have thought about. Rebecca and Jen went hand in hand because once we got our big group shots, Rebecca went off to the side and got nice family shots of both mine and my husbands extended family which they all loved And appreciated!! We got our sneak peaks before we went to bed on our wedding night and were so in love with them already! Jen I truly can’t thank you enough for all you did for me and my husband on Our wedding day! Our bridal party had so much fun with you and Rebecca and they all even said that it was relaxing and you guys made it fun to take pictures which coming from boys says a lot! I wouldn’t nor couldn’t think of anyone else being our photographers except for Jen and Rebecca!!! Thanks for making our day so beyond special!!❤️
There are barely any words to describe how amazing Jennifer is! Honestly, she will go above and beyond to get you your perfect pictures! She hiked, got in cold water and almost kind of fell off of a little waterfall to get us our perfect shots and she succeeded in making our engagement photos perfect! Everything was so comfortable with her too! Nothing felt awkward and she really captured mine and my fiancé’s unique love and goofiness in our photos! I can’t stop staring at them since she sent them and I especially can’t wait for our wedding pictures now!
There are not enough words to explain how absolutely incredible she is!
We are so lucky to have Jen as our photographer for our wedding next year. I have loved her work for a long time as she has done photography for my cousins in the past and I knew I wanted her as my photographer for our big day! We had a engagement pictures taken last week and it was an amazing time, we had to cut it short because of rain. Jen being as amazing as she is offered to give us another short session one day to finish up our shoot, I don't know about others but she goes above and beyond to make sure we are happy with not only our big day but everything leading up to that day. I wouldn't have anyone else helping capture our engagement or wedding day! Jen makes everything so easy going, we had a wonderful engagement shoot neither of us felt we were going to be overly photogenic but the pictures turned out beautiful.
From the begining Jen was tremendous. having great wedding photographs was the "must have" for my October wedding - so much that I booked her 2 years in advance.
We had our initial meeting with her - to make sure we would all have the same feel and that she would be a good fit for us. As soon as my husband and I walked into her studio, I felt like I was visiting a friend - her space is so welcoming! we spent maybe half an hour going over questions about the wedding and learning about one another, and the next half hour just talking about anything.
When we had our engagement photos done a year later, Jen was so much fun to work with - her bubbly personality was greatly welcomed and made everything so much easier. She has great ways of getting you to feel comfortable and in the moment.
The week of the wedding, Jen was super helpful, making herself available for whatever I may need. I luckily had everything ready to go, but I guarantee that if I would have asked for a coffee, she would have found time to get one for me.
The day of the wedding I was all over the place, making sure everything was going smoothly and correctly - Jen was always right beside me, reminding me that we had time to spare, and everything was fine. The ceremony turned out to be beautiful. When it came time for the reception, I was able to dance it out with her - she definitely had fun, while still being able to work with her assistant, Rebecca.
Jen and Rebecca are both amazing photographers and even better photographers. I will be using them for every big moment in my life.
much love to you both,
Mr. and Mrs. Burke
Jen is the absolute best! For both our engagement and wedding photos she made us feel so comfortable and gave the perfect amount of guidance. We just got married yesterday and we woke up to beautiful preview photos! She is extremely talented at what she does. I highly recommend using her for any special occasion!
Jen was AMAZING! Throughout the entire process, she was always there for us and was very supportive. She answered every single questioned we had, and was always willing to go the extra mile. Jen takes the time to get to know her clients on a personal level, which makes the photos feel even more special and not simply staged.
