Hi there!
I’m Jeanette, and I’m thrilled you’ve stopped by. I am a wedding, family, and portrait photographer based out of Seattle, Washington. I am also a lot of other things. Find out more below.
THE PHOTOGRAPHER: Without a doubt, my favorite part of this job is the incredible people I am fortunate enough to work with. I get to take a front row seat at the most important events in my clients lives. I was keenly aware of this as I stood in the SeaTac Airport with the Brown family, waiting to photograph their son’s arrival after two years of very limited contact. It isn’t lost on me that I am often the only non-family member in the room. At weddings, at family reunions, I consider it the highest honor to be let into these rooms, these families, these stories. It is with this awareness that I capture the unique stories, relationships, and details of your life.
THE SMOOTHIE MAKING, TAYLOR SWIFT LOVING, TRADER JOE’S ENTHUSIAST:
You’ve learned about the photographer. Now let’s get into some other things that make me happy!
You’ll always catch me listening to a new podcast or audiobook. I’m a big fan of scripted podcasts, including Homecoming and Blackout. I also love Armchair Expert, The Daily, One Step, Goal Digger, and for all my Bachelor fans out there, Almost Famous with Ben and Ashely I.
I am a recent graduate of St. Olaf College with a degree in Philosophy and Management (crazy combo, huh?). I was born in North Carolina, but grew up in Washington State and am a Northwest girl at heart. I am a wedding, family, and senior photographer based in the South Puget Sound of Western Washington. I make smoothies daily, and love to throw in just about anything from spinach, to fresh ginger, to cacao. My three favorite movies are Forrest Gump, The Sound of Music, and Bridesmaids for a guaranteed laugh.
I specialize in wedding, family, and senior photography. I find joy in capturing movement, relationships, and the inner beauty of all my clients brought to the surface by their laughter and unique story. I use encouraging and easy direction during my shoots to ease any initial nerves of being in front of the camera. By the end of our shoot, we'll be laughing like old friends. I'll rush home, post a few sneak peeks, and swiftly deliver your full gallery just as fast as I can. I treat my clients like royalty, and love to spoil them rotten. I love having answers to questions my clients didn't even know they had, and I strive to provide an outstanding client experience from booking all the way to delivery of galleries. If you think we would be a good fit, you may find my contact information below. I can’t wait to hear from you!
I am based in Washington State, but love to travel ;)
