HEY, I'M JEN π
So it occurred to me, I've never really done a proper introduction on this page?! And besides from that, my business profile pic was painfully outdated (back before I had my trusty fringe, help!). Anyway, let me introduce myself to you, new followers, OG peeps and everyone in-between.
My name is Jenny, Jen for ease, and I'm a Scottish photographer based in Angus. I've had a camera in hand from as young as 12 after hijacking my dad's point and shoot at every given opportunity. My love for photography started in a place I always come back to - nature. I spent hours photographing flowers, bees, animals, landscapes and even my friends...when I convinced them to do some modelling (many, many funny photos unfortunately lost here).
At the age of 16, I left school to pursue my passion and escape environment that didn't work for my learning. I found comfort in using photography to communicate things I found hard to say out loud and created a lot of work I'm still proud of during my studies. After securing my HND in Photography I set off travelling the globe with my then partner, from Vietnam to Australia and many, MANY stops in-between. Working every summer on the West Coast of Scotland tourist route, we'd save our money and spend the winters globe trotting. Along the way I picked up odd photography jobs, including my first ever published piece in Australian Outback Mag, I was so damn chuffed with that! Covid ended that adventure streak pretty sharply, although I managed to squeeze in plenty more adventures solo. Now I've settled in Angus with my Romanian rescue dog, Apollo. Not the path I ever thought I'd be on but very content in life being a wee barista and photographer, enjoying a solid life to work balance and spending as much time outdoors and with loved ones as possible.
Outwith photography, you'll find you running trails, climbing rocks, finding weird trinkets on the beach, crafting, jigging to some Scottish trad, talking to my plants and generally just being a bit daft.
I'll be sharing a bit more about the work I do in the coming days, so keep your eyes peeled! πΏ
