connected weddings

Weddings are about more than a big party. They’re about a marriage. They’re about family–grandparents, siblings, kiddos, college roommates, and your furry children. They’re about the anticipation of a new adventure; about partnerships and connection. They’re about loud laughter and quiet emotion. They’re about the little touches throughout the day that say I’m here and I’m so glad you are too.

A connected wedding is about being with the people — and only the people — who make you feel seen, celebrate and LOVED.

Whether you’re celebrating with five family members in a meadow, 100 of your closest friends at a backyard BBQ, or just the two of you on a mountain top with your dog, surround yourself with those who love you and cherish your relationship for exactly what it is.

Hi! I’m Jennie

My name is Jennie (she, her, hers) and I photograph weddings for queer and in love people.

Here are a few things I know:

  • How to rock a pair of maroon pants
  • Cinnamon rolls can (and should) be eaten any time of day — “breakfast” hour be damned
  • A good story never gets old
  • Life is better when you fall asleep holding hands
  • Being who you are and caring about the people around you is the most important, bravest, coolest thing you can do…especially on your wedding day.

let me answer some questions for you

My goal at every wedding is to capture the essence of your day. I want you to look back at your photos and really feel every moment of your celebration. I live for small, intimate moments, for emotion, and for the story between people. I love photos that capture the environment and look for the epic views and beautiful light everywhere I go.

I’m also not afraid to get IN the moment with you. I believe that you feel a photo more when you are an intimate observer and not just an outside viewer.

Most importantly I want your photos to feel like you. I want you to see how you hold hands, how you look at each other, and how you laugh together. I want you to look at your photos and think “that’s us”.

You won’t believe how many people say this when we first talk. And I get it. It can feel very vulnerable to have a camera on you. My job is to help you loosen up by taking the focus off the camera and putting it on each other. I use a mix of prompts, activities, and conversations to get you moving, interacting, and laughing. I’ve had so many people tell me after a session, “wow, that was fun!”

Yes! I’m the kind of person who is always dreaming of their next trip. I love exploring new places with no expectations. I think some of my best work comes from places I’ve never been to before because I approach everything with fresh eyes.

Since you’re inquiring for a wedding outside of Colorado, all travel is included in the pricing you see above!

The number of images you receive will depend on a variety of factors, including how long I’m at your wedding, whether I have a 2nd photographer, or the nature of your day. On average I deliver about 50-100 images per hour. All of your delivered images are chosen for quality, emotion, and what they bring to your wedding story. I convert about 5% of images to black and white.

My All-Day package includes a custom, high quality album, with 60 of your favorite images. Albums can be added to any package at any point.

Awesome, I’m excited that you’re ready to jump in! To secure your date we’ll need a signed contract and a $2000 retainer. The retainer will be applied to your final balance, which is due 30 days before your wedding.
