Hi there! I've been seeing some new faces around here so I thought I would take a moment to introduce myself. I'm Jennifer. But you can call my Jenny. I recently rebranded my business to have a more refined feel to it and chose to use my full name for the rebrand. Honestly, no one calls me Jennifer. A few things to know about me: 1. I hate wasting a gorgeous day. There is no way on God's green earth will you find me inside on sunny, warm days. The only time I'll be inside is for nap time (my kids, not mine), getting some work done and that's about it. When there's a gorgeous day, I take full advantage. 2. My favorite holiday is July 4th. 3. My idea of a perfect day is a hike with my family and then off to a winery/brewery to eat good food and drink good drinks. 4. I wouldn't consider myself a foodie right now, but since marrying my husband, my palate has definitely expanded beyond the midwest's typical meal of casseroles and salads that should not be considered a salad. I still won't eat shrimp, lobster, or any other sea creature. Occasionally, I'll have a crab cake, but that's it. 5. I LOVE to read. I didn't love it when I was younger, but as I get older, I really love to get lost in a story. I just finished all seven Harry Potter books for the first time and am now reading A Man Called Ove. 6. Tonight is pizza night at our house and it's the best. My husband literally makes the best pizza ever. Just ask our many friends that have come over for pizza night. Ok, tell me something about you? Which number on here do you relate to most? (📷 @abbyjiu ) 
Today was one of those days where I just wanted to rip my hair out because of technology issues. Something is happening in my Lightroom software where I keep getting a corrupted Catalog. And now I'm waiting to hear back from Adobe as to what the root of the problem is. Basically, I've had to start over some projects quite a few times already. *this is why you back your stuff up, people*. And then I get an email from this sweet bride whose wedding was the last wedding where people were gathered without thinking about social distancing and not a mask was in sight. She emails me because she wanted to know how I could get paid with all the downloads she will be doing soon. (Note, my downloads are included in my packages) She wanted to pay me for downloading her images ON TOP of paying for more prints. I was blown away. Her desire to help my small business just meant the world to me. I'm so thankful that 1. she still loves her photos (!!) and 2. her generosity to continue to support my small business is just amazing. Each and every one of my couples have been truly a blessing to me, my family, and my small business and I'm so thankful.

Hey @governorralphnortham look at that! A wedding that was able to go on with the set amount of people allowed AND in safe conditions. GASP! Don't ignore us. Please give us more guidance. Please let our couples move forward with their weddings. Because if they can move forward, then thousands and thousands of small businesses and the people employed by small businesses can get back to work. You care about small businesses right? Then care about us. Couples are now taking their weddings to other states and you know what that means, that money goes to those states. Cases and deaths are going down, kids are going back to school, hospitalizations are going down and vaccines are going up! Stop leading your state in fear. Give more guidance. Give more clarity. We need to plan yesterday. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #DCweddingphotographer #marthaweddings #bridetobe2021 #bridetobe2022 #DCweddingphotographer #bestDCweddingphotographer #washingtonian #washingtonianweddings #washingtonianbrideandgroom #fineartwedding #fineartphotography #weddingphotographer #realwedding #washingtonDC #dcbride #marthastewartweddings #stylemepretty #classicDCwedding #classicbride #loudounweddingphotographer #loudouncountywedding #northervawedding #northernvaweddingphotographer

Heading out the door for a fun styled shoot today with @cherryblossomeventsdc But didn't want to rush off before I took a moment to remind @mayor_bowser @governorralphnortham and @larryhogan to GIVE THE EVENTS INDUSTRY SOME GUIDANCE!!!!! Let us reopen! Make weddings and events great again! Clients are waiting on you. Their guests are waiting on you. Their vendors are waiting on you and wondering if they will get paid. Do something. Do something yesterday. Our clients need to plan yesterday for their April, May and June weddings. . . . . . . . . . . . . #DCweddingphotographer #marthaweddings #bridetobe2021 #bridetobe2022 #DCweddingphotographer #bestDCweddingphotographer #washingtonian #washingtonianweddings #washingtonianbrideandgroom #fineartwedding #fineartphotography #weddingphotographer #realwedding #washingtonDC #dcbride #marthastewartweddings #stylemepretty #classicDCwedding #classicbride #loudounweddingphotographer #loudouncountywedding #northervawedding #northernvaweddingphotographer 
(I'm taking a note from @gritandgraceinc and I'm going to start speaking up for my clients and my industry. Calling out @mayor_bowser @governorralphnortham @larryhogan ) You know what's fun right now? Letting couples get married in a safe environment whether it's outside under an oak tree or inside with safe restrictions. But, we are STILL waiting on @mayor_bowser @governorralphnortham @larryhogan to make a move. It's time to make a plan DC, MD, and VA. Don't leave the events industry hanging in limbo. It's not only the events industry it is the lives of the people you govern. Give them clarity. Give them a plan. All they want to do is make a finite guest list. . . . . . . . . . . . . . #DCweddingphotographer #marthaweddings #bridetobe2021 #bridetobe2022 #DCweddingphotographer #bestDCweddingphotographer #washingtonian #washingtonianweddings #washingtonianbrideandgroom #fineartwedding #fineartphotography #weddingphotographer #realwedding #washingtonDC #dcbride #marthastewartweddings #stylemepretty #classicDCwedding #classicbride #loudounweddingphotographer #loudouncountywedding #northervawedding #northernvaweddingphotographer
