PHOTOGRAPHS ARE THE TANGIBLE CELEBRATION OF BEING ALIVE
✹
I’m Jenna Mae, a photographer and Super 8 enthusiast based in the Southern Georgian Bay area. I’m here for the salt-of-the earth people, the kind and playful, and the weirdos. My approach is deeply collaborative. I require trust and presence from my clients to capture the raw and heartfelt moments that make each story unique.
For more than half my life, I’ve had a camera consistently in hand, capturing the people, emotions, and moments that matter most. My earliest rolls of film consisted of my mom’s flower gardens, the family dogs, life on the farm, the people I love, and trips around the globe. Ultimately, my innate curiosity of people is at the heart of everything I do and I feel most alive when there is a camera in my hands.
My love for photography took off in high school when a film photography course introduced me to the magic of developing my own prints in the darkroom. After that, my dad gifted me a used Nikon F60, and I was hooked. It wasn’t until my mid-twenties that I found my way to weddings. Drawn to the raw emotion and celebration of love, I knew I had to be part of it. I later taught myself digital and now here I am with over 150 weddings documented.
I specialize in embracing diverse love stories with warmth and care, ensuring that every photo feels intimate, genuine, and true to the essence of my subjects. Trust the process, lend your trust, and allow yourself to be seen—just as you are, just as you feel.
YOU ARE MY ART
I’m free spirited, quirky, an awkward joke-maker, a collector. I rarely wear shoes in the summertime and I often kick them off when I’m shooting. I’m a bookworm and a true crime nerd. Whenever I drive the music is cranked.
I’m a lover of people, freedom, the wind, the sun, the rain and all the beauty this life has to offer. I thrive on making people laugh to help them break out of their shells. If you feel good, I feel good. I tell my people I love them often and believe the world is a better place when we do.
When I’m not shooting you can find me in a forest with my dog Winnie (aka Mini), swimming in Georgian Bay, lazily kayaking, or travelling somewhere (likely solo).
