"Jenna Jenna Jenna, we don’t really know how to express how incredibly happy we are with your work. You really make it look easy. You effortlessly capture the most precious moments that we couldn’t dream up if we tried. Jenna is calm, cool and collected, she’s funny, supportive and really boosts your confidence when she’s shooting you. I really couldn’t have asked for someone better for our wedding and engagement photos. We will continue to use Jenna in the future, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for dreamy, candid photos. Her work is nothing short of special, she is a joy to work with and she fits in well to any situation. We are thankful she was there to support us on our big day. Thank you again Jenna, we love you!"

Jenna is the absolute best! She is amazing at what she does, so kind to communicate with throughout the whole process and on the day of our wedding she was calm, considerate, patient and just made us feel like the absolute best throughout the day/night. Even though it is such a busy season for her she got back photos to us soooo quickly and we are soooo in love with how natural and candid they are. Everyone loves them as much as we do. We can't thank her enough for capturing us so well!

Choosing a wedding photographer is no small decision. After all, they're tasked with encapsulating the most cherished moments of your special day. My husband and I were fortunate enough to find Jenna, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. From the moment we met Jenna, it felt like we were connecting with an old friend. Her warmth and genuine interest in us immediately put us at ease. On the big day itself, Jenna was a calming presence amidst the whirlwind of activity. She seamlessly blended into the background, capturing every heartfelt moment without ever feeling intrusive. Her ability to anticipate the perfect shots seemed almost magical, and the results were nothing short of breathtaking. But Jenna’s talents extend far beyond her photography skills. She possesses a rare combination of professionalism and warmth that makes her feel like a member of the family. It's clear that she genuinely cares about her clients, and that sentiment shines through in every interaction. In short, she is more than just a photographer; she's passionate about her work, a storyteller, and a friend. If you're searching for someone who will not only capture beautiful images but also become a cherished part of your wedding day memories, look no further than Jenna. We're forever grateful for the incredible moments she's preserved for us, and we can't recommend her highly enough.

Jenna photographed my cousins wedding and I just fell in love with her work. She took a photo of my now husband & I, dancing at my cousins wedding and it had been a favourite of mine for years. 4 years later, for our wedding we decided to book Jenna! Jenna did our engagement session, offering us suggestions for places to take the photos and scope them out before we got there. They were very perfect! At the end of our engagement session, Jenna offered any help with questions for our wedding. The first question we had was, what great food can you recommend? Jenna emailed us lots of options & we picked one of her suggestions which was a HUGE hit. Fast forward to our wedding, Jenna made our experience seamless, everything flowed and so many great shots. I honestly cannot put into words how wonderful Jenna is, I even had guests telling me how awesome she was. My brother and his fiancé have booked Jenna for their wedding and my best friend and her fiancé. I think an added bonus was at the end of the night, Jenna said I’ll have your photos emailed to you by the end the week! Friday morning there they are, I can’t stop looking at them. Thank you so so much Jenna, you have such a gift. Thank you for sharing your talent with us on our special day. We will see you at the next couple weddings!

"Jenna captured our day in a way only she could. Our photos are so representative of ourselves and our day distilled into permanent memories. Jenna is not only a uniquely gifted artist, but also a friend (one who was willing to drive us from photo site to photo site in her own car so my dress wouldn't get dirty). She went above and beyond, but more importantly she captured our day in a perfect time capsule of timeless joy. We love you Jenna!"

"We are absolutely enamored with Jenna and the unique, emotional moments she has captured for us. We always knew we wanted to work with Jenna for our wedding, and were thrilled to have an engagement shoot prior to get a personal feel for her talent. And while she is extremely talented, she is also just so much fun! Even my husband, who is not keen on photos generally, had a blast taking engagement photos. She made us both feel so comfortable and became a big part of our love story - it was only fitting to have her there with us on our wedding day. Her mix of talent, compassion, and emotion makes her work a cut above. It all shines through when you get your photos from her - and you don't have to wonder if you will get enough. Jenna ran around with at least 4 different cameras and juggled them all as the professional she is and delivered SO MANY special shots that show our love and personalities on camera. She also created an intimate Super8 film that we will cherish forever. Jenna captured amazing photos of us, but also the most important people in our lives - candid and full of pure joy. My husband's grandmother passed shortly after our wedding, and we are so thankful to have these incredible shots to remember her by. We are so lucky and grateful to have had Jenna be a part of the days leading up to our wedding, and most importantly the wedding day itself. There is no one we would recommend more than Jenna. She is light, love and sweet like honey! Thank you, Jenna. YOU are a masterpiece. We love you."

"Where do I even begin about how talented and adorable Jenna is? First of all, Jenna’s passion for her work shows in every single interaction you have throughout the planning process. My husband hates having his photo taken and he still raves about how fun our engagement photo shoot was. She doesn’t have you stiff and posed in all you photos. She captures real emotion in a fun and playful way. When I received our sneak peaks from our wedding, all I could think was “these photos are so US!” She truly captured everything that makes us who we are on our wedding day. She made it so easy and carefree, no one was sick of taking photos or posing. I look forward to having Jenna capture more of our life adventures in the future."

"Jenna is such a talent. She is kind, open and warm. She captured such genuine moments at our engagement shoot and on our wedding day. She brought excited but calm energy, coordinated with her second shooter to let the groomsmen know the girls were running late (so I didn’t have to worry about it) and even helped me get my earrings on (major sister vibes!). Her photos capture so much emotion, are beautifully focused and artistic. We’ll treasure these photos and memories forever. I can’t recommend JMT enough! Jenna, you are a gem!"

“We discovered Jenna's breathtaking work and fell in love with her natural ability to capture the raw, emotion-filled moments in life. I recognized that she was pure heart when we first connected, which made our decision to hire Jenna as our wedding photographer an easy one! From the beginning, Jenna created a fun, stress-free process and made us feel relaxed in front of the camera. She brought such positive energy and lightness to our wedding day and naturally felt like part of our circle! It felt like we were shooting the breeze with a good friend. When we received our sneak peaks, we were blown away by how perfectly Jenna captured our essence as a couple and every small detail in between. She also went above and beyond and surprised us with a Super8 film of intimate moments which we deeply cherish. We're so grateful Jenna captured these special moments for us to relive for years and years to come. Jenna, you are truly the salt of the earth and an exceptionally talented artist with an infectious thirst for life. Thank you for everything you did to make our day that much more special. We can't wait to capture more of life's precious moments with you by our side!”

“My husband and I got married during the fall of 2020 and because of the pandemic it ended up being an extremely intimate gathering. Jenna captured the day perfectly. She is such a warm and sweet soul. She is the most lovely person to have with you on an important day. Her photographs are completely stunning. An amazing experience with Jenna all the way around.”

“Our first ever experience with Jenna was years ago when she photographed our engagement session and we immediately knew we loved her. Jenna made us so comfortable and captured how we were feeling in every photo she took. From then on, we have never looked back, having Jenna be our go-to for every important life milestone and moment. We feel incredibly grateful to have had Jenna be part of our wedding, maternity and newborn sessions, business ventures and even the most special shoot for our doggos before losing our sweet Charlie. Jenna’s effortlessly cool nature and kind soul comes across in all of her work. We are so happy to have connected - Jenna, you are the BEST!”

“Jenna has been capturing my growing family over the years and when I look at the images she’s captured, it brings me so much joy. She captured my pregnancy, my newborn and my sweet daughters so well. She made my entire family feel so welcome and at ease. She makes my daughters laugh and always captures them in their true form and I love that about her. “ just be yourself” she says. Her talent and her love for her craft is second to none. We love you Jenna! Thank you for always being there for my biggest life moments and for allowing me to always be myself xo”

Jenna makes it the most comfortable experience, captures the most beautiful moments, and makes sure you get your photos as quickly as possible.

Jenna's presence was very comforting and natural which I think it important when documenting such a big event. She captured our wedding perfectly and we were thrilled. Jenna delivered everything as promised and we could not recommend her more!!”

“When words are not enough, Jenna takes a photo and turns the unspeakable to spoken. From my business product shoots, to my partner shots Jenna articulates emotions through photos and I am so lucky to be a client of hers. Her energy is contagious and her spirit is so kind and pure. I scream recommendations from the roof tops!”

Jenna is such an easy-going, lovely person and makes it easy to be comfortable and have fun. Her photos are works of art. We have so many in out home to mark milestones, but also because she makes everything beautiful. We wouldn't go to anyone else.”

"You are the best! From the very beginning we knew we had to book you for our wedding. Our engagement shoot was so much fun! Being able to travel to a couple different locations was so cool and the fact we didn't have to rush to fit into a strict timeline made things feel so much more relaxed and comfortable. We are so thankful for your patience in rebooking our wedding date so many times and in different locations. The day of the wedding was so smooth and easy, stress free just like we wanted. When things got a little tight for time near the end of the family photos you got things rolling along perfectly and were able to get all the shots we wanted. We said we wanted lots of candid photos and are just obsessed with all of the emotion you captured. As we looked through our gallery (which had SO many photos AMAZING!) we could really relive all the different emotions of the day, and often could actually pinpoint exactly what point/speech it was taken in. SO cool. You really go above and beyond in everything you do. Your kindness and passion shines and the final product is so beautiful and so professional. The entire experience could not have been any better. We had so much fun opening a bottle of wine and watching all of our photos on slideshow! Thank you so much!!! Can't wait to do maternity and family and business photos with you in the future!"

"We would recommend Jenna, hands down, for your wedding photos. Not only was her work excellent, she was also kind, caring, adaptable and understanding throughout the whole process. Jenna made us and my whole family feel so comfortable while taking photos. We didn't realize how much a photographer adds to the general feel of a wedding, and Jenna felt like family. We absolutely love our photos and can't wait to frame them to be on our walls forever."

"Jenna was amazing from start to finish. Booking and communication was great going into the session. She made us feel at ease during our family session and photographed the love and chaos that is our family (3yo and 7mo) perfectly. We are so happy with the generous sneak peak of the photos we received promptly and can't wait to see the rest. I would recommend Jenna to anyone and we plan to use her again."

"Our wedding day was perfect and part of that reason was having Jenna as our photographer! She was amazing and my husband and I had the best time working with her. Jenna made the atmosphere so chill and we both felt comfortable being in the spotlight even though we normally hate getting our pictures taken. It felt like we were just hanging out with a close friend that day. Our pictures turned out beautiful and we get plenty of compliments from our friends and families when they look at our album. We had a small intimate cottage wedding and having Jenna as part of our family that day made it that much more special. Thanks again Jenna! :)"

“After working in the wedding industry for nearly a decade and interacting with countless photographers, I knew Jenna would be the perfect fit - and we were blown away! Jenna is effortlessly calm and incredibly kind - she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and she captured us authentically. I have to mention that we are painful camera shy, but you would never know from her photos! We genuinely treasure the photos from our wedding. She has an unmatched eye for detail and we could not be more grateful to her!”

"If you are contemplating using Jenna as your wedding videographer, DO IT! Jenna listened to what I envisioned for our wedding video as well as added her creative flair. She made it a personalized experience which resulted in a video that represents my husband and I so well. Jenna has such a calm yet fun energy which makes for a very comfortable experience. She is so talented in what she does, I would trust her with our wedding video 100x over."

She has an ability to make everyone feel comfortable and confident. We have absolutely fallen in love with Jenna's work and look forward to hiring her for any of our photo needs in the future. Highly recommend!!"

"I’ve had the pleasure of being in two weddings where Jenna is the photographer. Her laid back presence is calming and natural to be around on mornings that can feel chaotic. She manages to engage with the entire wedding party and blend into the background at the same time, allowing her to capture beautiful candid moments. On a personal note, it is amazing to see Jenna flourish in her craft. I went to high school with Jenna and we had a lot of art classes together. It’s been fun watching her journey and growth as an artist/photographer. I know how seriously she takes her work and it shows in the attention to detail- capturing fun party moments, intimate quiet moments, romantic love, platonic love…the spirit and soul of the people in the photograph always shine through. If she’s available for your wedding, book her- you won’t be disappointed!"

“Jenna took our wedding photos at Toronto City Hall this past July and did an absolutely incredible job! We loved her unique and earthy style and were blown away by the photos she did for us. We also had so much fun with her taking the photos during the day. Our whole family had a blast and everyone was relaxed (but on time!!). Jenna is professional and from start to finish easy to work with and quick to communicate. I would highly recommend her! Thank you, Jenna, for your amazing work!!”
