Meet Jen , the person behind the lens
Based in Iowa , photographing since 2018
Hi, I'm Jen! I am a wife , mom to two beautiful girls and one sweet boy, and the heart behind Jen V photography. For the past 8 years, Photography has been my passion. I specialize in maternity, portraits, birthdays and all of life's special milestones. .
I've been married for 11 years, and my husband is my biggest supporter ( and the brains behind many of my props - He somehow got the job he never asked for!). I feel incredibly blessed to be invited into so many families' stories. Every session is a chance to pause time and capture the love that often goes unseen.
