Jen McKen Photography Inc You're sentimental, you value experiences over things and maybe you cuss a little. Girl SAME! Let's work together! haha! I'm Jen McKen-get in front of my camera.

ok luv ya bye! Hi-ya!!! I’m jen mcken!

……a down to earth, people loving, small town gal. I am a leeetle bit sarcastic, HUGELY sentimental, I have a killer sense of humor and I’m damn good at my job! I’m organized to a fault, being late is my pet peeve and I believe chocolate and duct tape fix EVERYTHING! I photograph people ALL OVER THE WORLD who don’t take life TOO seriously, who aren’t afraid

to laugh at themselves and value preserving life’s big AND little moments. I capture images full of fun, rich in sentiment and abundant with authenticity-that’s my jam

I like to think that there are parts of who I am and my personality scattered all through my website (www.jenmckenphoto.com), but……you can also keep up with me on Instagram (www.instagram.com/jenmcken) where I share small glimpses of my personal AND professional life thru tiny little squares. I’m addicted….it’s kind of pathetic! I can’t wait to meet you!! WHY I DO THIS:

I get a front row seat and an all inclusive pass to some of the most important days of people’s lives. I get to document family history…. man-nothing is better than that! Listen, the truth is, I know how important images are. I lost my 17 year old sister in a fatal car accident and it wasn’t until having to search thru shoe boxes of images to display at her funeral that it hit me…HARD! Photos are SO SO SO important. That day changed me as a person AND as a photographer. I hope no one ever has to experience the overwhelming feeling of regret I had that day…the feeling of not enough…not enough REAL authentic moments captured. That is really what built the foundation of my business. I want to give YOU what I wished I had. Since then, I’ve been on a mission. I want to capture images that are full of fun, rich in sentiment and abundant with authenticity. I know first hand that photos are worth SO much more than the paper they are printed on.

These photos feel like summer in the best possible way 🌼✨

Barefoot energy.
Golden light.
Wildflowers.
And that soft kind of happiness you can actually FEEL in photos 🤍

You absolutely do NOT need some extravagant location for beautiful senior photos.

Some of my favorite images have been taken: beside random buildings, in fields, on back roads, in parking garages, beside gas stations or even in somebody’s yard. Because good photography has WAY more to do with:
*light
*personality
*movement
*styling
*emotion…rather than having some wildly elaborate location.

A good photographer can find beauty almost anywhere.

Literally 95% of people show up saying: “we’re awkward in photos.”

And then 15 minutes later they’re dancing, laughing, making fun of each other, and completely forgetting they were nervous in the first place.

That’s kinda the magic of it 🤍

Senior guy sessions usually start with:“I don’t know what to do.”And end with:“Wait…that actually looked cool.”

I swear some of the best photo spots are the places you’d normally drive right past without thinking twice about them 😂

A little sunlight, some wildflowers, and someone willing to trust me when I say “WAIT RIGHT THERE” is sometimes all it takes.

By the time I’m posting these, graduation may have already come and gone… which honestly feels very on brand for how fast life moves lately 😭

But I loved this sibling session because it felt less like “senior photos” and more like documenting a chapter before everything changes.

Also these two made my job ridiculously easy 😂🤍

I feel like these photos perfectly capture that weird bittersweet season of life where everything is about to change… but nobody fully realizes it yet 🤍
The older I get, the more I realize photos like this become family history someday. Not just “senior pictures.” Proof of who they were together during this exact chapter of life 🤍

Also can we normalize sibling senior sessions because these were SO much fun 😂
