Hi! I'm Jenny GG
I’m here for anyone who has felt 'left out' at a wedding.
As someone who came out and came of age in the 80s, it was hard to see myself represented at weddings.
In fact, I’d only been to two weddings before I photographed a friend’s in 2008—and both times, I was an uncomfortable bridesmaid in a sleeveless dress.
Photographing that first wedding allowed me to see the joy of the day. I was inspired by how a nice lens flare, enthusiastic candor and a happy, fun-loving couple could make a little photo magic.
Every couple, regardless of body, background, sexuality, or gender identity, deserves to celebrate their wedding day surrounded by wedding vendors that are filled with joy, acceptance and respect. I recognize the importance of creating a photography space where everyone feels valued and seen. Additionally, I make it a priority to provide a personalized service, tailoring my approach to meet the needs of each couple I work with.
Since that first wedding in 2008, I’ve photographed over 700 quirky, lively, and joyful celebrations of love.
Whether your day includes baby penguins, stormtroopers, a New Orleans jazz band, hula dancers, a drag queen officiant, or a mariachi band, I’ll capture it all while helping you feel relaxed, present, and delighted.
All folks are seen, accepted, and valued.
So many of my clients have felt “othered” by the wedding industry. If that’s you—or you just want to make sure no one else feels left out at your celebration—I’ll be there to help everyone feel seen and appreciated for exactly who they are. It’s important that everyone in my photographs feels included, no matter what.
Celebrating you, just as you are.
Aside from weddings, I photograph prospective adoptive parents, births, families, graduations, engagements, and all the other joyful moments that life gives us.
You’ll catch me telling a few 'dad' jokes, making up goofy songs, and encouraging you to love up on your special someone. Getting you comfy with me and the camera is a key component of my relaxed, gently prompted style.
My goal is to help you see yourself in the same way your loved ones see you.
