Hello, I’m Jen—your new best friend with a camera. A South African-born, USA-raised creative, I’m a photographer, artist, and storyteller who believes in the power of connection. I’m passionate about capturing moments that not only reflect your story but also create an unforgettable experience. Whether it’s through the lens of a camera or the brush of a paintstroke, my goal is to help you tell your unique story in the most authentic, joyful, and meaningful way possible.
From a young age, I was always drawn to anything creative—whether it was painting, singing, or exploring new ways to connect with people. My love for art and storytelling naturally led me to photography, and in 2009, when I picked up my first DSLR and film camera, I knew I had found my true calling. It was more than just taking photos; it was about documenting the moments that matter most, the stories that need to be told.
After capturing over 150 weddings and elopements, I realized that the traditional wedding industry often misses a key element: authenticity. While the grand celebrations have their place, I found my true passion in intimate weddings and elopements, where the focus is on real connection, adventure, and a celebration of love in its purest form. By blending my background in fine art with my photography, I offer an experience that’s as unique as your love story—one that’s free from industry norms and centered on you.
Let’s create something beautiful together, one moment at a time.
