ABOUT ME

Hi and Welcome to Village Studio! I'm Jennifer!

​

I am the owner and primary photographer of Village Studio Photography & Portraits located in downtown Ridgewood, New Jersey and Montclair, NJ.

​

I am an artist who seeks to tell the stories of women and the spaces they are in (mental space, family space, relationships, professional space) and empower by light and beauty.

​

After going to school for art, I was trained to paint as a mural artist. I was taking pictures and using them as references for the paintings. After that I was hired by a photography studio and taught how to use the camera. I was going to people's homes to photograph their children. It always amazed me how differently the women I met lived and their stories in how the course of their lives met mine. After I learned all I could technically, I went out on my own to define my own course and document the lives of my clients.

"Create an Inspired Legacy"

A beautiful portrait can capture many things. In an interview prior to your photoshoot, I'd like to gather an essence of who you are and how you would like to be portrayed. The portraits we create are timeless, heirloom quality fine works of art that will last beyond both you or I.

​

I'd love to hear more about you and what you love.

Let's work together to highlight YOUR Legacy. What would you like your photographs to say? How would you like your story to be told? 

fierce + elegant
