Hello
I’m Jen
I’m a family photographer who loves capturing all the small moments in life.
My passion for photography began long before I held my first camera. I've always been fascinated by the power of imagery to capture emotions, preserve moments, and narrate stories that transcend time.
With every click of the shutter, I aim to freeze not just smiles or laughter but the feelings behind them—the joy, the love, the tender moments you'll cherish forever. For me, photography isn't just a profession; it's an art—a way to encapsulate the beauty of life's fleeting moments.
MY STORY
I wasn’t always a photographer, but I always knew I wanted to connect with people through art.
My photography journey started as a child when I would sit for hours going through my parents’ photo albums. Looking at snapshots of my childhood and time gone by was a comfort growing up in an ever-changing world. I got my first camera, a point and shoot, when I was a teenager and began documenting my life, and by association, my friends’ and family’s lives.
In college I studied physical therapy which gave me a deep understanding of movement and the human body. My decade of work as a physical therapist has helped me hone skills associated with photography, as it requires creativity, quick thinking, problem solving, continued learning, teamwork, and clear communication to ensure that those I am working with feel comfortable and informed.
On my wedding day, I had the experience of being in front of the camera as a client. I was fascinated by the process of photographing an event. Everything from our first meeting to the gallery delivery was so interesting to me. I absolutely love and cherish the images from that day, and the experience made me first consider that photography could be more than a hobby.
Recently I became a mother to the most amazing baby girl. The professional maternity and newborn photos I had taken are priceless, and I am so thankful I have them. Time is already flying and I can see changes in my daughter daily.
Lately, I have focused on family photos, as many relatives and friends have become parents. It is such a privilege to capture special moments for my loved ones and their families. It’s the only way to freeze time when little ones seem to grow up so fast.
I enjoy lifestyle photos as much as traditional portraits. Natural light in an outdoor setting provides a perfect, timeless backdrop to allow your personality to shine. The best photos evoke emotion and take your breath away; that’s when I know I have done my job. I consider it an honor to make photos that people will enjoy for years to come and use as part of their family history.
Photography has tugged at my heartstrings for two decades, and I am so honored to preserve priceless memories that you can cherish for a lifetime.

My favorite things
A little more about me and my passions in life (outside of photography, of course!).
I reside in Hunterdon County with my husband and daughter. We are passionate travelers and love going on adventures, near and far. In the winters you will typically find us on the ski slopes, and in the summers going for walks on one of the beautiful local trails.
We purchased a cozy mid-century home six years ago and completely renovated the second floor. We always have a few ongoing projects and are fascinated by historic architecture and antiques.
On the weekends you will likely find me downtown in one of the River Towns, perusing the local businesses with an iced tea in one hand and a macaron in the other.
