ABOUT
Hi I'm Jennifer, owner and primary photographer of Village Studio Photography & Portraits located in downtown Ridgewood, New Jersey and Montclair, NJ.
_
When I was 16, I knew I wanted to help people see who they really were, not fully knowing what that meant or having any experience with a camera. Here we are almost 20 years later and (talk about manifesting)
I am an artist who tells the stories especially 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, taking pictures as references for the figures in the paintings. After that I was hired by a photography studio and formally taught how to use the camera where I was going to people's homes to photograph their children and milestones. After learning all I could technically, I went out on my own to document the lives of my clients and give back to my community.
_
Building a space where someone can feel comfortable and authentic enough to photograph what they love about themselves was always key in creating Village Studio. I wanted those I photograph to be inspired to tell THEIR story and leave empowered to conquer the world in a more confident and beautiful way.

A portrait can capture many things. In an interview prior to your photoshoot, I'd like to gather an essence of how you would like to be portrayed. Soft. Strong. Sexy. Innovative. Warm. Elegant. Professional. A connector. The portraits we create are timeless, heirloom quality fine works of art that will last beyond both you or I and tell the story of what makes you unique.
What would you like your photographs to say? How would you like your story to be told? How would you like to highlight YOUR Legacy?
