She has quickly established herself as a sought-after photographer in the wedding industry, known for her ability to blend two distinct styles: documentary and editorial portraiture. “Giving guidance where needed and allowing moments to unfold naturally,” - this philosophy allows her to capture both candid, heartfelt moments and carefully composed portraits, creating a well-rounded visual narrative of each wedding.
When asked about her equipment, Jenny keeps it straightforward: “Mirrorless for digital work and a 35mm film camera.” This mix allows her to combine the crisp precision of digital photography with the nostalgic and timeless quality of film. By incorporating film into her workflow, she brings a unique texture to her images that many couples find irresistible.
In terms of post-processing, Jenny stays true to her philosophy of authenticity. “I edit my images for color and tone, keeping them as close to their true colors as possible,” she emphasizes. This careful approach to editing ensures that her photographs remain a faithful representation of the actual day, offering a timeless quality that her clients can cherish for years to come.
Jenny places a strong emphasis on communication, believing it’s the foundation of a successful client relationship. “Communication is key when working with clients,” she stresses. “I find it extremely helpful to have open and candid conversations about what they are looking for... their priorities wants and needs... so that I can properly execute their vision.”
She takes time to understand each couple’s unique desires, ensuring she delivers a personalized experience. For Jenny, it’s not just about taking beautiful photos—it’s about ensuring that each couple’s vision is executed flawlessly. “All of our proposals are custom-created for the needs of each couple,” she adds, highlighting her flexibility and dedication to providing tailored solutions for every wedding.
Destination weddings hold a special place in Jenny’s heart. “Destination weddings are so inspiring!” she exclaims with enthusiasm. Having photographed in some of the world’s most picturesque locations, she lights up when talking about her favorite spots: “My favorite destinations that I've photographed so far would have to be Lake Como, Capri, the coast of southern Italy (Amalfi + Positano), and Southern France!”
Each location brings its own charm and character, which Jenny seamlessly weaves into her photography. Whether it’s the sparkling waters of Lake Como or the sun-soaked cliffs of the Amalfi Coast, her ability to capture both the couple’s love and the breathtaking scenery creates images that are both personal and iconic.
Jenny’s services extend well beyond the wedding day itself. In fact, she often captures the entire wedding weekend, offering coverage for events like welcome parties, rehearsal dinners, and day-after brunches. “The majority of our couples include coverage for their welcome party, rehearsal dinner, and day after brunch in addition to the wedding day,” she notes. This comprehensive approach allows Jenny to document the full range of emotions and experiences that occur throughout the wedding weekend, providing couples with a complete story of their celebration.
For Jenny Quicksall, being a wedding photographer isn’t just about snapping photos—it’s about building relationships, understanding her clients, and documenting love in its truest form. “The people I get to meet!” she exclaims when asked about what she enjoys most about being a photographer. “It’s truly an honor to be able to document such a momentous time in people’s lives.”
