Heartfelt & timeless
wedding photography
for the chic world traveler.
My experience both traveling and living abroad as a photographer, combined with an appreciation for genuine connection over the best bottle of wine in Europe, enables me to pause and savor your best moments and tell your story of love with exceptional photographs full of heart and soul. Let’s tell a story of love that’s a legacy like no other,
Intimate. Unique. Soul-filled. Breathtaking. Significant. Authentic. Memorable.
Whether you dream of portraits at iconic locations in Paris, a wedding ceremony overlooking the Italian countryside, an exotic beachfront escape, or mountaintop adventure portraits, each couple who chooses a destination wedding has shared these values. And we do too.
Our love of travel, historic architecture, and deep connection with those we hold dearest lends itself perfectly to capturing your continuing journey. We are ready to go wherever love takes you for your wedding day!
“Jennifer didn’t just take photos of our day, she captured our emotions, personality, the details, joy, and love in every moment,
big and small.”
Destination weddings
A remarkable
celebration that is distinctly yours.
A story that started when I
didn’t study abroad…
With experience both traveling and living abroad as a photographer, I’m familiar with the dynamics at play with a destination wedding – you have nothing to worry about!
Our goal is for you to be 100% present during your destination wedding, free from the travel logistics and able to revel in the joy of experiencing this beautiful place on your best day ever with your closest family and friends. I will be type A so that you don’t have to be. You focus on making the memories, and I’ll focus on capturing them.
Miles from home, create a visual love story to your past, present, and future.
Blending a keen eye for detail with a passion for meaningful connection, I’ll capture honest & inspired images that are just as worthy of the cover of a magazine as they are for the walls of your home.
