Jen, Carl, Ava, Camille & Isaiah - Family, seniors. engagement & upcoming wedding!
Jen has taken my immediate and extended family photos for the last 10 years. Important events like all three kids’ graduations, family sessions, and engagement photos. She has a way of making even the most photophobic people smile. She finds a way to capture the quirky, the spontaneous, the loving, and the magical moments held within a families' heart. Before we chose a venue for our wedding, or a date, we made sure Jen was available. She took the last family photos that my brother was still living for, and knowing she knew him, was all the more important. My tiny little family is representative of several marginalized populations (disabled, multi racial, gay, and others - but we won’t specify ) and have NEVER felt like “other” with Jen. She is a member of OUR extended family at this point, and she will treat you like hers. If you want the right fit - it’s probably her.

“We couldn’t be happier with our senior portraits! Jen has an incredible eye and a really made our daughter feel comfortable and confident. The photos are stunning—authentic, artistic, and full of personality. We’d highly recommend!”

“Jen has been our family photographer for over 16 years. She's captured some of the most important events in our family’s lives: our wedding, newborn & family photos, professional photos (business cards & posters for my husband’s music business) & everything in between. She always brings fun and creativity, an artistic vision & ideas for unique locations. Even with our natural awkwardness in front of a camera, Jen is always able to capture most beautiful pictures, bringing to life each of our personalities.”
Jen is incredible. She took our wedding photos 22 years ago, various sessions of our kids over the years and did our son’s senior pics. When you find someone this talented and easy to work with, you keep coming back! She captures individuals and creates beautiful images while doing so. Our son is neurodivergent, and not a fan of posing for photos. I was bracing for how his senior pics might go, but Jen made it so easy. She was flexible, considerate, and offered to break it up into shorter sessions, though in the end we didn’t need to because she was fantastic with Sam! She met him where he was and got so many honest smiles and laughs from him. Trust her with your memories: you will be so glad you did! - ERIN, Sam's mom

"My family has been receiving keepsake photo collections from Jen Frieden Photography for over 20 years, from graduation to our wedding to our newborn babies to our memorable family milestones. Jen’s photos are the artwork in our house that makes it a home. Her creative wizardry amazes me and I am always so grateful for her talent and vision.
Jen brings a calm and patient demeanor to photo sessions that always puts us at ease, but is quick with a good joke to help us find our real smiles! We are so lucky to have a forever-photographer and would follow her around the world (and have!)" -Kayla

"Jen is such an awesome photographer. She has been taking pictures of our family for years and the relationship she has with us has made every session go really quickly and painlessly.
I really like the options to get all the digital images to print as we want. It's so nice to be able to go back and compare from year to year. " - Jess

"I originally agreed to let Jen take photos when she was young in her career because she is one of my best high school friends. I continue to choose her because of her amazing work.
She has captured priceless memories of our family for many years. She is fun and creative and always willing to try something new.
I'm forever grateful for the thoughtful imagery of Jen Frieden Photography." - Allison
