Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
Getting married? Sweet! I’m the artist behind Zenobia Studios, a wedding photography business in Newport, RI. Here’s how I roll…
We meet up, have a drink and a laugh, I get to know you, and you get to know me. We have a shoot, and you feel surprised at how comfortable you are and how much fun you have. We party at your wedding and I capture all of it… siblings that never show love showing it hardcore, tears, Nana on the dance floor, uncle Biff chasing bridesmaids, your cousins who recreate the catch scene from Dirty Dancing… all of it. After it’s all over, you get your pictures back and you’re like… “Holy mother, I had no idea that happened! My hair was on point! OMG that’s us!” Down the line, you start a new business, or procreate, or you’re feeling frisky and we shoot couples boudoir, or you stay exactly the same. Whatever path you take, I’ll be there to document it, and we will laugh some more and have a blast the whole way! Get in touch, I can't wait to hear your story!

It’s long enough that I’ve seen anything and everything you can imagine. Whatever happens on your day, I’ve got you. Rain, snow, plague of locust…. we will still get great pictures.

My husband and I hired Zenobia studios for our big day in Narragansett. Jen and her second shooter Seth were absolutely amazing. Their energy is electric, and they were able to coax out some beautiful shots from my husband and I, who are not the most comfortable in front of the camera. We are so impressed with the prompt sneak peeks photos we received just a day later, and are so excited to see the rest of the shots. They understood our vision, and got all of the shots that we were looking for. And they executed it with time to spare and grace, so that we were able to enjoy much of our event without being taken away from the party. I would absolutely recommend using Zenobia studios for your wedding photography needs, Jen is the real deal!

THESE FOLKS ARE TOP. NOTCH.
My partner suffers from severe anxiety around her appearance, and reacts negatively to most photos of her. We were both very nervous about having our wedding photographed, and apologized in advance to Zenobia Studios for what we knew would be a challenging event for them.
Jenny was beyond professional - she was patient, gentle, and deeply understanding. She put my partner at ease right away, and checked in with her throughout the process to make sure she stayed that way. Jenny made the whole thing fun, which was above any of our expectations (including the bride's family).
The photos came out BEAUTIFULLY, and even my partner found a few that she loved. Jenny and her team are collaborative, professional, and have the emotional sensitivity to navigate difficult and tense situations. I have recommended Zenobia to every one of my friends ever since then, and all of them have thanked me afterward for the tip.
You want an incredible shoot for your special day? You'll get it and then some. But if your experience demands more than just a world-class photographer -- as ours did - you want Zenobia.

Let me start by saying my husband does not like being photographed which worried me when it came time to finding the perfect person for our wedding day. From my initial interaction with Jen, we clicked! Jen and I spoke on the phone for almost an HOUR on our first call. Her personality is kind and fun and so easy going, I felt so comfortable with her from that very first day and had a hunch that she would be the one we’d choose. Because I’m so indecisive I also put up a FB post asking friends for recommendations and she was one of the people mentioned. They shared their wedding photos with me to look through and I knew after seeing them that we had to book with her. Jen is truly everything you could want in a photographer. She know how to make people feel at ease, keeps the conversation light and easy and the energy fun and endlessly flowing. We had so many laughs when we did our engagement photos and had more beautiful images than I had imagined. Communication with her regarding details, timelines and any requests was wonderful and she was always so responsive. And on our wedding day, OMG Jen was amazing! She did the most amazing job getting the traditional portrait style photos but also getting the best candids; all the hugs, smiles, tears, emotion and the best dance moves! We have a nice blend of light and airy in our daytime photos and moody photos at night. She captured the real and raw feelings of the most beautiful day I could have ever dreamt of. Choose Jen for your wedding or any event, you will be so glad you did! We can’t wait until we need the next set of photos taken, we will be sure to have Jen capture our memories again and again

I can’t thank them enough!!! If you don’t have them for your wedding yet, you should !!!! I can’t say enough about their professionalism and overall awesomeness! Many thanks to both of you!!

There were two photographers at my daughter’s wedding at Belle Mer on 1/13/2021 - a man and a woman. They were punctual and the quality of the photography was good. However, the woman photographer was very condescending and I was hoping for a more courteous interaction. Thankfully everyone else at the venue made the occasion a memorable one.

We used Zenobia for our wedding pictures and working with Jen was wonderful! She was very responsive (which was great considering we had to push our wedding multiple times due to Covid), and very easy to work with. She spent time, before the wedding, getting to know who we were as a couple, and the type of vibe we were looking with our pictures. On the day of the wedding, she was so much fun and had our entire wedding party cracking up! She was great to work with and I highly recommend using Zenobia Studios for your wedding day!

Jen was recommended by a colleague and I am so happy we went with her. We got married on New Years Eve and her style fit the occasion perfectly. Our package came with an engagement shoot and she was totally fine with us moving all around Boston. She was ready to shoot for as long as we were. For the wedding she was very relaxed and our bridal party all commented how easy it was to take photos with her - nothing was forced. She got beautiful, creative photos and I am so happy with her work. I would definitely recommend Zenobia!

Jen is THE BEST! So easy going, creative, and AWESOME! Will help you feel so natural as she captures all the best shots. Our engagement shoot was epic and she captured so many organic and unique moments from our wedding - everyone raves about our photos and we can't stop looking at them even a year later. So happy we went with Jen!! Just did a newborn shoot with her this month, a year after our wedding and she was so great with our 3 week old, will keep going back! Can't wait to see our little man's first photoshoot.

Choosing a photographer for your wedding is probably one of the most important aspects of wedding planning. You want someone you can TRUST and feel comfortable around. We knew from the very beginning of wedding planning, my husband and I wanted someone fun, professional, artistic, and just an all-around good person. That is why we chose Jen at Zenobia Studios! Jen is an amazing person with a creative eye you cannot find in every photographer. She listened to what we wanted, ran with it, and delivered far above our expectations. Our engagement and wedding photos will forever hold a special place in our hearts thanks to Jen and her incredible talent. I HIGHLY RECOMMEDN JEN AND HER TEAM FOR YOUR WEDDING/SPECIAL OSSCANSION PHOTOGRAPHY. Also, shout out to Matt (Jen’s second photographer) he was so friendly and easy to work with- my husband and I loved him!

Love Love LOVE working with Jennifer. She is an amazing photographer. Our personalities hit it off so well! We got endless compliments on our engagement photos. She was a blast to work with, and after seeing all of those photos, knew we were in good hands for our wedding.
Working with Jennifer and Matt on our wedding day was so much fun. They always know how to make us laugh, made sure we got each specialty photo we requested, and they stayed til the end to capture everything. Although we haven't seen all of our wedding photos yet (as it's only been 2 weeks), Jennifer did an AWESOME job at getting us some sneak peak photos literally the day after our wedding!
I love working with her so much, I am contemplating a wreck the dress shoot with her... and even thinking of future pregnancy/baby/family photos with her (if she'll have us back! 😜)

Jen is outstanding. We haven't even gotten all of our photos back yet but I'm already blown away by the ones I've seen. She is so creative - no canned shots or poses you've seen a dozen times before. She's also really great about getting people to loosen up. She is a little on the pricey side but worth every penny - she does phenomenal work. So lucky we were able to snag her :)

This is a little bit embarrassing, but I started stalking Zenobia's facebook page two years before I actually got engaged. They photographed my husband's cousin's wedding and once I saw their photos, I truly became obsessed. Fast forward two years and I knew photography was the first thing I wanted to book and I immediately set up time to meet with Jen. From our first meeting, it was so apparent how passionate she is about what she does and it shows in all of her photos. Not to mention how her awesome personality shines everytime you see her. Obviously, we booked almost immediately. She was always responsive to all of my questions, helped me build out a timeline for all of our photo locations for the big day (we went to three different locations to do all of our photos before heading to the venue and had to battle Newport traffic), and was just always a pleasure to talk to. And the photos. Oh the photos! All thousand pictures - and yes, I mean literally a thousand - were just breathtaking. We have gotten so many compliments on them. Our families cannot stop gushing about how beautiful they were. Not only were her pictures amazing, but she is so much fun and keeps everyone smiling the entire time you're taking photos. I was so disappointed when it was the end of the night and I had to say goodbye to Jen and her co-shooter. Trust me, you will have no regrets going with Zenobia!

We learned of Zenobia Studios through an extended family member whose wedding they had photographed. After seeing the creative, unique, and downright beautiful photos from their engagement shoot and wedding day, our decision was made! I can't say ENOUGH good things about my experience with Jen and Zenobia Studios. Wedding planning and selecting the right vendors can be stressful, but Jen was the only photographer that we met with and she made our decision remarkably easy. From the very start she took the time to learn about what was most important to us and help us define our vision for the day. Not only did she provide us with the most spectacular engagement and wedding photos, but she was an absolute joy to work with along the way. Jen is easily one of the funniest, sweetest, and most friendly people we have had the pleasure of encountering and her creativity is second to none. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, as if we were hanging out with an old friend, and captured the most beautiful memories. On our wedding day, Jen and her associate, Dave, joined us bright and early, capturing every moment as we got ready, walked down the aisle, and danced the night away. We now have, quite literally, thousands of pictures to remember our special day. To top it off, Jen worked her creative magic again as she hand-picked the absolute perfect leather album (in one of our wedding colors, no less) and strategically placed the outrageous number of photos that we requested (and also some extras that she just happened to love!). I would HIGHLY recommend Jen and any of her associates at Zenobia Studios. We will surely be lifelong clients and are looking forward to having Zenobia Studios capture many special memories to come.

Kendall photographed our wedding and we honestly couldn't have asked for a better photographer! She was SO down to earth and laid back and not pushy at all. She made us feel super comfortable with her from our initial meeting. She had great ideas and even went and scoped out spots to take pictures between the ceremony and reception. All of the members of the bridal party, our parents, and even our friends, relatives, and other wedding guests told my husband and I how much fun they thought our photographers were (Matt, one of the associate photographers was Kendall's assistant for our wedding and he was equally as fun, laid back, and down to earth!!). Photography was the most important part of our wedding, in our opinion, so I did a lot of research and looked at a lot of blogs and read a lot of reviews before selecting Kendall. We were blown away by how much we loved the pictures and she didn't make us do anything that we didn't want to do (no forced awkward shots), but pretty much let us tell her what pictures we wanted, while she threw in some great ideas of her own. We were extremely impressed with how quickly the turnaround was for getting our pictures, and we also were extremely pleased that we got to have the rights to our pictures and were allowed to share them with our family and friends. The pictures were amazing, but honestly it was Kendall's amazing personality and great ideas that made her the perfect choice for our wedding. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who is looking for a photographer, which I have already done to friends that have gotten engaged in the past few months. Overall, we couldn't have been happier with Kendall, the pictures, and the overall package that we selected from Zenobia!

Zenobia Studios was so great to work with! All of the staff are very warm and friendly. They check in with you and make you feel special, even months before the wedding.
They have very reasonable prices. The package we selected was unlimited photos with immediate print rights to all pictures for 5 hours and it came to $1500 (that included the engagement session).
Our photographer Jamie was one of the nicest, most fun people we've ever met! We had a blast taking pictures all day with him.
Highly recommended!

Zenobia photography actually recently moved their studio to Providence, RI. I met with Jen, the owner, and instantly hit it off. She has an awesome personality and was so much fun to work with. She and her second shooter were on time and excited to work with us. I can't say enough about them. They were amazing and our pictures are exactly what we were hoping for. I did a ton of research on photographers in the area and they are definitely one of the best around. Their prices are fair and their work is amazing. They stayed with us the entire day and night and were smiling the entire time! I would absolutely recommend them to any bride and groom.

I loved working with Jennifer and her ladies. Our day went smoothly and we had fun taking our pictures. Our photos came out beautiful and we are so happy with our albums. We could not have asked for more. We received so many compliments on our photos and we are constantly being asked for her information. We have given the studio's information to 5 couples already! We definitely recommend them.

I got married on New Year's Day and hired Zenobia Studios to shoot my wedding. Kendall was our main photographer and she was wonderful! She was punctual and very professional, but a lot of fun at the same time. Both photographers were great, and the photos so far are fantastic!

Honestly, this was our favorite vendor from our wedding! Jenny and Kendall (our 2 photographers) were the best to work with. Not only are they fun but they are so creative! Our pictures are not your typical wedding pictures! Very candid, urban, unique, etc. I can not say enough about them! Even our guests had fun with them! If that doesn't say enough, 3 of our guests took her information because they are engaged and are very interested in having Zenobia as their photog! They captured all the fun and emotions that we and our guests had that night! Go to their website to view their work (www.zenobiastudios.com). Love Love Love them!!!!!!!

Out of all of our wedding vendors, Zenobia Studios was by far our favorite! Not only was Jen and her team very talented, but they were warm and welcoming from the start - they wanted to make you feel comfortable and get to know you as a couple. Jen was my only vendor who not only asked me what my dress was like, but wanted to know where I found it, who I went shopping with and how I decided. You can tell they truly love and enjoy what they do, and, despite the fact that they shoot hundreds of weddings, they always go the extra mile to make you feel special and adapt their working style/personality to align with yours. Futhermore, they had photography packages to suit all budgets and tastes. Not to mention, they were a blast to work with (definitely made picture taking fun!) and their work is simply stunning. With a mix of artsy, unique, fun, traditional and simply romantic shots, we couldn't be happier. They completely captured our day - 100 thumbs up!!

We were looking for someone who would take pictures that had a little more artistic flare than the traditional wedding photos... and we found it! Zenobia Photography Studios has two awesome photographers- Jenny and Kendall. Both were so sweet and fun to work with. We had Kendall photograph our wedding and couldn't be happier with the end results! She took all the pictures by herself and still managed to get every possible angle of the wedding ceremony and reception. She tooks great "portraits" and lots of fun candids. Love, love, love them. Then afterwards you get a disk of all the high resolution pictures which I think is so great! It's easy to make photo gifts now (calendars, photo books) or just copies to send to family and friends.
Nothing bad to say about Kendall- she's the best!

When I started researching photographers everything looked the same to me; I couldn't understand how brides and grooms found someone since it all felt the same. Then, i found Zenobia's website and I instantly fell in love with Jenny and Kendall's work. After meeting with Jenny in person, I felt even more confident about using her.
We met with 3 photographers and all had great work, but I felt like I clicked with Jenny, loved her work, and she was familiar with our wedding venue. I knew if I selected her that I would be working with a real professional that would be responsive, helpful, and dedicated and I was not disappointed.
I ended up working with Kendall and Marcie (a friend of theirs) for our wedding day. Kendall was with me and the bridesmaids and she was amazing. She knew how to keep things moving, yet checked in to make sure everyone was okay.
We just got our pictures and we were blown away. Many of our family and friends have told us our pics belong in a magazine! We love knowing that we'll have these great memories to look back on forever.
The hardest part has been choosing what photos to select for our album!

We clicked with Jenny the moment we met her! We walked in, talked for about 5 minutes and FI leans over and whispers in my ear "I know, You LOVE her" and I did...we booked her later on that day. After about 2 months of having her booked, she offered a free trash the dress session, so I did it! It was great to get to work with her before the wedding and the pictures were just stunning! She was totally accessible the whole time during planning…I'd text her/email her/FB her and she'd get back to me instantly! Perfect for the obsessive bride haha :) 2 weeks before the wedding we spoke for about an hour to map out the whole wedding day, it was SO helpful! The day of the wedding she showed up bright and early and started capturing every little detail. She followed us from the salon, to my mom's house, in the limo all day, to the State House, Waterplace Park, Goddard Park beach and then finally to Quidnessett - it was a long day and she and her assistant were on target ALL day! At the reception, she set up a laptop near the entrance to play 30 or so pictures she had taken during the day, it was a huge hit…people couldn't believe there were pictures from earlier in the day already available for viewing and amazed at how fabulous they were! Within a week of the wedding she put about 50 pictures up on Facebook and I LOVE them. I couldn't be happier with how our pictures came out and especially how our album came out!!
