Meet the Photographer
Hello! My name is Jennifer Finney
I'm a trained portrait and landscape photographer. I am also a nurse. I've spent almost 20 years as a home health and hospice nurse. I am a wife and a mom of 4 amazingly supportive adult children and a Nani to Eli and Lani. I started chasing a 30 year old dream of doing professional photography at the age of 50. It's been keeping me young for the last 3 and a half years. I specialize in High School Seniors, Families, Couples, Headshots, Maternity and Child Milestones, but have also dabbled in a couple small weddings and corporate events. I love the clients and new friends I have made along the way, and I especially love the connections I have made with other supportive photographers. We only get one life ~ do what you love!

Testimonial:
"Jen was so great to work with. The pictures she takes are nothing short of amazing. Her enthusiasm is contagious. She took both of my daughters senior pictures and they came out amazing. She took the time to listen to what they wanted and really brought out their personality in the pictures. I now watch her page to see what she will do next! If you are considering who to use, Jen is a decision you will not regret!"

Megan and Kya Belt:
"We had the most amazing experience with Jen for our daughter’s senior photos! Our daughter had specific ideas and inspiration for how she wanted the photos to look, and Jen listened carefully, bringing those visions to life in a way that exceeded our expectations. She has an incredible eye for detail and captured my daughter’s personality beautifully in every shot. She made the entire process fun and stress-free, putting my daughter at ease from the moment the session began. The results were vibrant, creative and full of life! We have so many incredible photos to choose from!
Jen’s talent, professionalism and genuine passion for photography truly shine through in her work. If you’re looking for a photographer who will make your special moments unforgettable, I highly recommend her. We couldn’t be happier!"

"We are so grateful that Jen was able to capture my son’s senior pictures! She made everything so easy! Her positivity and enthusiasm throughout the shoot put my son at ease, and I visibly saw him relax as our session progressed. Jen has an infectious smile and personality, and she 100% went the extra mile for us….(literally hiked a bluff to get the PERFECT sunset shot - haha). That photo is a complete treasure to me, along with SO many others from our session. My son was so very happy with how the pictures turned out, and said “wow” repeatedly as we reviewed them together. Senior pictures are designed to capture a special moment in time, and Jen exceeded our expectations in capturing our son’s expressions, interests, and personality. I can’t recommend Jen enough - and we look forward to booking her well in advance when our next child is a senior! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
