A bit about me…

-Born and bred in Oakland. #hella

-Solo traveling feeds my soul! Recently I’ve traveled to Cuba, Belize, Mexico, and Denmark.

-I love collecting film cameras

-I could spend the day swimming. I worked as a lifeguard, taught and coached swimming, and I love scuba diving!

And when I say badass, I mean I’m the girl to get the job done. With 12 years of industry experience, and over 300 weddings shot, I know the ins and outs of all things photography, what works and what doesn’t. My approach to photography is simple: keep it real and keep it fun. No more stiff posing and awkward hands on your hip. We’re going to get loose and laugh until we cry—I promise!

What kind of love story do you want to tell?

Something scripted, or something natural? Let’s craft the most beautiful, original, one-of-a-kind love story.

Let’s get the party started!

“WOW! Jeanie photographed our wedding at Stern Grove. She did a FANTASTIC job!!! We love our photos, they are so beautiful and vibrant. Like, jaw-droppingly beautiful. She captured the magic of the venue and the day. She was completely professional. On the day of, she maintained a low profile with her assistant. She was never in the way or distracted from what was happening for us or the guests. Her price was extremely reasonable. We loved Jeanie! She has a great warmth to her personality as well. We felt 100% comfortable being our goofy mushy selves in front of her lens. What a great experience.”

-Jeff + Sara, SF Stern Grove

What is photojournalism?

bay area wedding photographer photojournalism real emotions

Long story short, photojournalism is how a photographer uses photos to tell a story. It’s common to see this type of photography in the news and journalism. It focuses on keeping an unbiased, honest approach to telling the story. So how do I use this style? I’m glad you asked!

I’m here to tell YOUR story. That’s it. As real and raw as it unfolds with 100% authenticity. I capture the ugly cries, open-mouthed laughs, stolen kisses, and every moment in between. Totally unfiltered. Absolutely genuine.

“VERY happy customer here! Jeanie captured the magic of our proposal/engagement day with the most gorgeous and spectacular images. I've shown her photos to everyone who's asked (and those who haven't!), and just about everyone has wanted Jeanie's info. In addition to her professionalism, Jeanie shared a personal touch that made our day all the more special. Also, she didn't make us wait for weeks and months for the photos, unlike what some friends of mine experienced with other photographers. We can't wait to work with her again!!”
