I literally could not recommend Jenn Spain more highly. HOLY SHIT! I did an intimate empowerment shoot with her and to say the process (and results) were empowering is an understatement! Jenn made every part of the process easy - from scheduling to day-of to fast turnaround and edits - and the shoot itself was a breeze. Jenn made it fast, fun, and had me totally comfortable, at-ease, and feeling sexy and empowered in front of the camera. Plus she is just an amazingly talented photographer, one of the best I've ever seen. She truly cares about her craft and her clients. If you are considering having her shoot you or your loved ones or events - GO FOR IT! It's truly priceless and worth every penny, and you won't regret it! read more

Jenn was amazing! We got wonderful photos of our special day. In an hour she managed to take photos with our guests (we had a small wedding), capture civil ceremony, and make us couple photoshoot. read more

Jenn Spain is an incredible photographer and also really cool, so you should not hesitate to book her for your projects! We hired her for our wedding and also an engagement shoot, and are so glad we did. She has a beautiful, artful, and and timeless style of shooting and editing, so we were drawn to her work immediately after finding her. She is an expert with color, light, and contrast, and her work has an ethereal, comforting quality to the colors. Her editing style hits this magical-timelessness zone where it captures the dreamyness of a wedding day, but isn't overly vibrant, nor too washed-out/bright as is a current trend for wedding photography. Jenn was super professional every step of the way, is easy to work with, and was great at coaching us for posing and movement. She helped arrange a schedule for shooting portraits before our ceremony in various family and friend groupings. She also helped work with our venue coordinator to align the key photo and event schedules together. The day was super relaxed and stress-free thanks to her. Trista, her second shooter for the day was also super talented, friendly, professional, and we loved having her there to shoot too. Jenn has been super detailed and helpful working with us after the wedding, too. She sent over sneak-peak photos very soon after the wedding and sent over the full set of edited photos not long after. The shots look amazing and there are so many, so we can easily revisit the day. She helped design our favorite shots into a gorgeous photo book. We are delighted to be able to recommend Jenn Spain Photography! Book her for your photo needs! She is a blast! read more

Amazing family photos with our 4 month old! Jenn is so easy to work with and took great candids and portraits of our family!

Working with Jenn was one of the most seamless and rewarding experiences of our entire wedding process. She was a delight from the very beginning. She captured in her images the soul of our wedding. She worked with us to ensure we had the style of images we wanted. Jenn never hesitated to check in and keep us updated on all the things we needed to do. She was diligent in her work and deliverables and gave us peace of mind. The photos were beautiful and having her part of our day was wonderful. read more

Jenn is an angel and we are lucky to have worked with her! We worked with Jenn first for an engagement shoot where she captured us -- we were wary of the typical engagement/wedding posing. Then for our wedding we are so so glad we worked with her, she kept us at ease while delivering a mix of incredible documentary moments and some super romantic and stylized portraits. She's also just lovely to be with on an emotionally charged day, we are so happy that she was available for our dates. She was also very inclusive of all gender expressions and made us and other LGBTQ family members feel comfortable. Thanks Jenn!! read more

I am writing this review wayyyy too late (a little over 2 years after my bachelorette party and a year after my pregnancy photoshoot) and it has been eating me away inside because I need to give Jenn all the love and praise she deserves. When I reached out to her at the last minute about photographing my bachelorette party with a mini boudoir shoot at the same time, I felt like it was a long shot she would be available and say yes. Not only was she 1000% down she was so enthusiastic and game to play and make it super fun! She showed up with the best energy driving from LA to Palm Springs just for an hour photoshoot and she killed it. We got through everything I wanted quickly and seamlessly and I have never looked better than in those boudoir photos! She also made the most beautiful book of the boudoir photos for me to give to my husband on our wedding day. When I got pregnant I knew I wanted her for some maternity photos as well. We did these in her studio and she made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. It was so special to capture that important and monumental time in my life. I will treasure her photos forever and I highly recommend her for all your photography needs! read more

If I could give Jenn, 500 stars I would. She made our wedding day so immensely special not just because she shot incredible photos, but also because she was a very calming, warm and kind presence during a chaotic day! I'm already reliving my wedding day through her gorgeous shots and it brings such a smile to my face. I can't recommend Jenn enough!!! read more

I would recommend Jenn Spain to anyone looking for excellent photos. We booked Jenn for our wedding, and she was organized and easy to work with. Jenn made our wedding easier leading up to it and the day of. She was amazing in letting us know her style to make sure we would be happy with how she shot our wedding, and I very much appreciate her being so up front and honest. She prepped us with scheduling our wedding timeline and listing out family members and combinations we wanted photographed, and handled all joyfully. Our friends commented at the wedding how great she was at wrangling everyone, keeping things moving, all while being lovely to be around. She kept command as people got distracted during photos, and then seamlessly blended in with our guests and captured beautiful moments. We are so happy with our wedding photos and will cherish them for many years. If you are looking for a great eye, a person you want around and want to work with, and fantastic product you can have forever, definitely book Jenn Spain. read more

Twice, we've hired Jen to capture our family photos. Once in Laguna and the other at the Santa Monica pier. She is absolutely amazing and clearly willing to travel depending on the backdrop you're looking for. For both sessions, our kids were very young- two toddlers to be exact. They can be so difficult to photograph in their natural element especially at a beach with so much space AND during a sunset that's only going to offer a small amount of time for prime photos. She had them laughing and playing all while moving around lighting equipment! The kids had a great time and we have priceless family photos. Jenn was so thorough throughout- checking sunset times and editing each photo to perfection. Grandparents, god parents, aunt and uncles have all cherished the beautiful prints from Jenn. read more

After poring over the photos of about 40 local photographers, my partner and I contacted Jenn because her work speaks for itself.  She was so pleasant while communicating, I was super excited for our shoot and to meet her in person.  We met her at the location with some outfit changes, props, and a bundle of nerves.  She helped us choose which outfits to wear when, directed us on where to stand and how to pose; the whole time making it fun and enjoyable for two people who are not necessarily comfortable with being in front of a camera.  We had such a great time with Jenn that we felt like we were hanging out with a new friend!  I highly recommend her. We are absolutely pleased by how gorgeous the final photos are. read more

This woman is something really special. Her skill and aesthetic can turn any type of shoot into photos that are incomparably beautiful! (And her prices are far too low for what her skill and product is worth, imo.) I've asked Jenn to photograph promo photos for two shows I've produced, and production photos for one of them. I can't get away with posting the photos without an onslaught of immense praise about the photography! Next up, I've asked her to take my engagement shots! read more

I booked a lifestyle / headshot photo session with Jenn for my holistic healing website. I desperately needed some updated professional shot of myself to refresh the energy on the site. I have nothing but amazing things to say about Jenn! 1) I live in Santa Monica and had a vision of shooting the pictures on the beach in Samo. She was so accommodating and also suggested we take them around sunrise to get the best lighting for the photos. I was very impressed that she really went the distance to make the pictures beautiful by driving from Woodland hills at that hour to accommodate my vision. 2) She asked what type of look I was going for with the photos. I loved that she asked me and we communicated about what I envision them to look like. I wanted them full of white light, to evoke a sense of peace, zen and calmness. 3) She was so amazing during the actual shoot. I am not a model so I didn't really know what to do with myself and she gave such beautiful instructions. I felt so comfortable and beautiful during the whole process! 4) The turn around time to receive the photos was so quick!!! We did the photo shoot on Friday morning, she promised them by Sunday night but I received them Saturday afternoon. It was so wonderful to receive the edited versions so quickly!! 5) They turned out amazing!!! Exactly what I wanted and had envisioned. She was also very flexible with all my requests for additional edits and questions. Can't thank you enough Jenn!! read more

Jenn has done several shoots for us including newborn photos and family pictures. She is great with the kids and always catches some incredibly special moments! Recently, she also edited and retouched some photos we had taken ourselves and did an amazing job in helping us create a special gift. Looking forward to doing my professional head shots soon! Jenn is extremely professional and easy to work with. I highly recommend her services! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Jenn. She not only took stunning pictures but made the whole experience fun and relaxing.

Jenn is super talented, creative, and imaginative. She also is so easy to work with; she will make sure you get the shots you want. She listens to her customers and she is a creative genius when it comes to art and photography. I am beyond deeply impressed with her skill set and professionalism. She is an asset to the wedding/event industry and any time you need photos. I love that Jenn has found her calling, because it truly is reflected in her awesome work. I cannot recommend a better photographer, especially if you want something edgy, distinct, and creative. Jenn has her finger on the pulse. I look forward to working Jenn again. My pictures turned out AMAZING! read more

Jenn is Amazing. The first time we spoke we set out all the details of who, when, where, and how it was all happening. I've never been in front of a professional camera before and Jenn made me feel so comfortable. My husband loved her personality and how she handled all our family members and guests to get the photos we wanted. In less than a week we had the sneak peak of our wedding shots and everyone who sees them raves about how good she is. We are so happy to recommend Jenn! read more
