Hi, I'm Jenn and its wonderful to digitally meet you! I'm a lover of all things "old" - set me loose in an antique store and I will come out with at least 1 [probably broken] film camera, multiple vinyl records of 40's jazz, & at least a dozen vintage novels. Vintage cinema and romance novels are what inspire me every day when I am behind the lens. It’s my passion to create beautiful, emotive imagery that feels like a scene from a story; because every couple deserves a love story worthy of a hardcover.
Just like in my favorite novels, I believe in slow burns, sweeping moments, and the kind of glances that say everything without a single word. I see wedding days like the best kind of plot: full of layered characters, tender turning points, and cinematic beauty. Whether it's a quiet touch during vows or a windswept veil at golden hour, I capture the details that bring your story to life—because your love deserves to be remembered like the pages of a favorite book: worn, cherished, and re-read for years to come.
I'm a city girl at heart, born in Los Angeles and living in Washington D.C. with my husband & our three pets; Fen, Zaze, and Lily. I come from strong Italian/Austrian roots and there is a little European flair to everything I do. I am most at home on a rainy day, curled up with my pup next to a window, a cappuccino in hand, surrounded by my well-loved novels, and a vintage record playing.
My must haves: good espresso, a romance novel, 2005 Pride & Prejudice, and a big bowl of pasta.

the scenes
behind
As a former Disney Engineer, I spent years immersed in a world where 'Happily Ever After' was not just a phrase, but a way of life. Being surrounded by the magic and romance of Disney every day made me a true sucker for all things love and happily-ever-after. It's this same enchantment that I now bring to my work as a wedding photographer, capturing the real-life magic and unforgettable moments of your love story. Embracing light, emotion, the raw & real moments - I am there to capture your love in this cinematic way so that your gallery of images unfolds like the beautiful story it is.
With a little engineer precision and a lot of passion for romantic imagery
HOW I WORK
Capturing the kind of editorial-meets-documentary images that feel like the best chapter of your favorite novel.
