About Me

Life happens...capture it!

When I was little, I loved to pull out my mother's photo albums and take a look back at moments that I wasn't there for as well as ones that I was too little to remember. I was drawn to those pictures because they envoked such happiness in me -- those special moments among my family.  I guess you could say that I was always drawn to photography and that my mother started it all.  That's where the name comes from: Light up my Life.  It's a song that she sang to me over and over when I was young.

Although that was a long time ago and I am now the one making albums for my two year old twin boys, I still get that same feeling of excitement when when I push the shutter button and preserve new memories.  I strive to capture that same feeling for the people that I "shoot" now.

For me, photography is so much more that looking through the camera and pushing a button.  It's capturing every day life and connecting with people.  Whether it be new parents and their sleepy baby, a newly engaged couple or energetic toddlers running around, I want to preserve those moments for people in a timeless and natural way.

Thank you for visiting my blog and I hope to meet and capture your family's special moments!

All my Best,
Jennifer

P.S.  I promise to not actually "shoot" anybody.  I always feel strange when I say to someone that I'd love to shoot their family!
