I was looking for a photographer to take my engagement photos and found Jennifer via referral from a friend and fellow bride. I immediately fell in love with her photography style and reached out to her. She was incredibly responsive, professional, and so sweet. My fianc and I had an amazing time working with her and the photo session was seamless and fun. Hire Jennifer, you will not regret it! She is the absolute best!

Jeni is one of the most gifted photographers I have ever come across. Her gift goes beyond just picking up a camera! Her warm personality goes into each photo as if she were taking photos for her own family. You can tell the love and dedication that goes into every shot she captures. I had so many poses that I personally didnt like how I felt posingand she managed to make those photos come to life in such a beautiful way that honestly brought tears to my eyes. I will forever treasure the moments she captured of me and my family and they were truly some of the most beautiful photos I now have of my growing family.

Jennifer and her husband were absolutely incredible. They were amazing to deal with and managed our wild group so well. The photos are so crisp and clean and well edited. She also gave soooo many sneak peaks less than a week after. Jen and her husband are so light and fun, I only have amazing things to say and would recommend them to anyone. You are soo lucky if you can book them!

We were told that the photographer is the most important vendor to hire for your wedding as they are ultimately the ones that will preserve your day and capture the images you will look back on for the rest of your lives. After an initial meeting with Jennifer, we immediately knew she was the one for us. She had a quiet confidence & professionalism that made us trust her immediately. Jennifer and Chris, her husband and second shooter, make an amazing team.
They provided a calm, relaxed, and fun energy to our day, this allowed both my husband and I to feel comfortable behind the camera. Her work speaks for itself: beautiful, elevated, and timeless. Weve so enjoyed reliving our day through her creative lens over and over again. Jennifer was the best thing we did for our wedding. We cannot recommend her enough!

Jennifer is awesome! We had to find a new photographer because of having our wedding 2 years later. She was super responsive, encouraging, and easy to know! We didn't meet her until our wedding day but she made it so fun and easy for both me and my husband! Her photos are light and airy and right up our alley! Definitely would recommend her for whoever is looking!

Jennifer and her husband, Chris, were absolutely amazing! They were organized, professional, punctual, and told us exactly what we needed to do. They were able to keep us on track with the schedule, but we never felt rushed. The sneak peeks came out amazing (and two days after the wedding!) and I cannot wait to see the rest! Jennifer communicated with me throughout the year leading up to the wedding to go over schedules/timelines, important details, etc. She was easy to reach if I had any questions and was able to help with any decisions I needed guidance with. I cannot recommend Jennifer enough!

Wow. What an amazing weekend we had and the wedding was beautiful. It was so important to capture our daughters special day. Jennifer Nolan was recommended to us and we are thrilled that we selected her to capture all the special moments of the day! She was very good at managing all the requested pictures and capturing casual images that are priceless! She was very calm and organized. We got the sneak peeks 2 days after the wedding and WOW! We cant wait to see all of the finished pictures! Thank you Jennifer and Chris for all you did!

Jennifer and Chris were so wonderful to work with from the beginning to the end! Jennifer was kind, professional and very responsive. My husband and I usually feel very awkward in front of the camera, but Jennifer made us feel comfortable and guided us. She was also amazing at capturing photos of our fur baby. We received our sneak peek photos quickly and we are so in love with them! We can't wait to see the rest. We are so happy that we chose Jennifer and Chris to capture our wedding day!

She was willing to work with us due to weather postponing our appointment several times, she helped make the posing process much more comfortable and gave us lots of direction.
