Our pictures are so beautiful! She did a great job of capturing the feel of the day. I'm usually really self conscious about how I look in pictures, but Jen made me so comfortable, and took some really wonderful photos. She even went the extra mile to create a photo of an inside joke we had with her. She was also a great person to have around on the day of the wedding. Very calm and kind energy. The perfect vibes.

Jen was amazing to work with and we hope that you choose to work with her too! We had such a wonderful time with her as our photographer and she and her assistant were so fun and took the stress away. She was amazing with our daughter and we couldn’t be happier with how the photos and videos turned out! Jen, you’re amazing and we are so incredibly lucky and grateful to have had you capture our special day together ❤️ thank you, thank you, thank you! - The Wheelers

Hi I'm Jen, thanks for checkin' out Sweetleaf Photography! I am a local Austin / Texas Hill Country wedding photographer who specializes in everything wedding photography related; bridals, engagements, rehearsals, and of course - the wedding day. People often ask me about my photography style. I'm not too much into labels so here's some adjectives instead; relaxed, engaging, nerdy, romantic, storytelling, you get the idea. Let's skip those over-posed pictures of you by those stairs or by that boring old pagoda. I want to capture those fleeting moments of you cheesing so hard and that belly laugh you try to cover with your hand because you think it's too loud (it isn't). I’ll be like that awkward extended family member you don’t really know that well but had to invite because your mom told you to. Just jokin’ I’ll be more like your photo spirit guide, leading you through your day to capture all those natural, beautiful moments and tid-bits that you want to remember forever. Let's have some fun and make some memories. If you're feeling the need to discuss the philosophical ramifications of time travel, then I'm the photographer for you! Not into time travel? :) No worries, I also enjoy exchanging bad jokes for smiles. Let’s schedule some time to chat! We can meet in person over a cup of tea or a glass of wine. If your schedule is busy I totally get that, let's just start with an email. If you want to take a gander at some more of my work or just want to know more about what I do, check out my Insta and website. For all those rad folks out there that are just trying to live their life in this crazy world, I just want you to know that it hurts to think that a statement has to be made about inclusivity within a business. If a statement has to be made for acceptance of all walks of life, then I say "if diversity is the spice of life...then I like it spicy!"

Ooof, this is the part where I have to talk about myself, right? Well if I must..I love bad jokes (thanks to my hubs), gardening, new recipes, outdoor shtuff, playin’ with my kids, philosophical debates, and of course takin’ LOTS of photo + video. I’ve got the ol’ ball and chain and my two little rascals Elijah & Oliver who are growing up way too fast…mom tear. For the real nitty gritty details, I’ve been a photographer for just over a decade…sheesh that sounds long, and I have a BFA in Photography from Texas State. If you want to know more about me, just send that email on over!

ich was an absolute blessing. Jen is not only incredibly kind and easy to work with but she is fast and does amazing quality work. I was so surprised to see the ceremony photos because she was so quiet and swift, I had no idea how many she had gotten. We are not a couple that frequently takes photos but she made the whole process so smooth and relaxed and we had an absolute blast. Her pricing is way more than fair for the spectacular work she does. She arrived early and was on it the whole time. She even got our gallery finished well before the expected completion date. Again, we could not have been happier and highly recommend her services.

On the day of our wedding we worked with Jennifer and her second photographer, Audrey. They were pleasant to work with, very flexible, and they were able to get amazing shots of our big day based on their experience. We got the big gallery back 3 days ago and my husband and I were absolutely stunned about how good the pictures are. I would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone!

hat was put together through an all- inclusive wedding planning company. They connected us with Sweetleaf and Jennifer. She, undoubtedly, made our wedding day absolutely perfect and the final photos were nothing short of amazing. We will cherish them for a life time. She was great at communicating the months leading up to our wedding, she was supportive of our needs (we had to get different permits to marry and be in the park and it was a little stressful), and she really listened to what we asked for during our initial intake so we had all of the photos we wanted. On our wedding day, she was professional, easy going and a lot of fun to work with, and great at giving direction for some amazing photos. We will never be able to thank her enough for what she has given us.

She had us back into our cocktail hour in no time and we have every photo we ever wanted and then some. She has the eye for sure and I will only ever recommend her and her services forever! She also really helped me and my husband open up on camera and really captured our essence through her lens!

d what you are hoping to capture. She is fun, professional and just a pure joy to be with. She felt more like a close friend or family member with us that day who just happens to take amazing photos. Your photos should not be something you second guess on or bargain shop for. This is where you should splurge on yourself! Jen is giving you an opportunity to invest in one of the most important days of your life. We absolutely loved working with her and our sample gallery is stunning! I can’t wait to see the final images. The samples are better then most wedding pictures I have seen. We did a destination wedding and she nailed my hopes and vision for my wedding day. Just book Jen and check photographer off your list!

m her own wedding! I loved her action, party and dancing shots as a bridesmaid. I felt so lucky that she was available to shoot our wedding in 2018! Jennifer provided us with stunning, artistically done photos that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. She was kind, relatable, professional and fun to be around! I knew I was in good hands with Jennifer and Sweetleaf Photography and you will be, too! It rained and plans drastically changed from an outdoor wedding, to an indoor wedding on the day of the event. Jennifer handled the changes in stride and created beautiful photos in the drizzle and rain. We both highly reccommend Sweetleaf Photography!

HOLY MOLY! You guys....Jennifer is nothing short of incredible. I was literally speechless when I opened our photo gallery. She truly made me look like a princess on my wedding day...

. I cannot recommend her enough. Not only were the finished photos perfect, she helped make my day so enjoyable. She had everything so planned out that it went seamlessly and took very little time away from having fun and celebrating. Plus, she managed to put up with my husband's groomsmen, which is not an easy feat. She is BEYOND worth the money. She is an artist. Period.
