I show up 200% each time I shoot and my goal is for us to have fun together. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to inquire about booking me for your event or project.

Jen was an unbelievably great photographer. She met all of our needs and her skill work in editing was phenomenal. The photos she produced for us were high quality and there were so many to choose from!

Jen was our photographer for our engagement pictures and wedding. We really loved her natural, photojournalism style and we are so happy with our photos. It has been fun looking through the photos of our wedding and reception because she captured the energy and fun of various moments throughout the night! She is also good at making the posed photos look more natural. We can both be a bit awkward in front of the camera so we were nervous about our engagement photos but Jen was great at finding good locations and poses that turned into lovely pictures. Jen was easy to work with throughout the planning process, she was very responsive and helpful in creating the timeline and shot list, and kept everything on track (even though I was a bit late getting to the venue, we still finished with some spare time). She also got our final photos back to us very quickly. We definitely recommend Jen! More...

This is long overdue and I finally got around to it! Jen was great to work with from the beginning. I called her to inquire about couple's photography and explained that I needed a short session at a specific location, I had already picked out and she was totally on board with it. We took our photos at Briones Regional in February, so it was raining quite a lot during that period and she was great at taking note of the weather and making sure we took our photos on a date that allowed us to hike to our location. She was very familiar with the location and suggested a wonderful spot for our photos. To say the least, the photos turned out amazing! I would recommend her to anyone and plan to reach out to her in the future for additional photo sessions. More...

We loved working with Jen! From the beginning, she was prompt, responsive, and very professional. We were planning the wedding from a distance and she helped make it such an easy experience!
Jen and her second shooter Sarah was a joy to work with during the wedding; they were accommodating when we were running a touch behind schedule, and worked so efficiently that we made up the time with no problem! Also loved exploring the venue with them, finding a lot of really beautiful spots to photograph. We really valued her direction while taking portraits; everyone looked so natural and at ease. After the wedding, she kept in close contact with a few sneak peeks that made the wait almost unbearable, but so worth it; every picture is stunning.
We're so grateful to have the fortune of working with Jen and look forward to cherishing the many memories we made that day!

We just got our Engagement pictures back a few hours ago and i am so happy with the pictures Jennifer captured that i wanted to write a review ASAP. We Hired Jen to do some extra engagement pictures of us and our dog. I am now kicking myself for not hiring her from the start and as our wedding day photographer. Jen was an absolute pleasure to work with from the start of e mail communication to receiving our final edits. The biggest thing i can say is that the pictures she took speaks a thousands words...We look like a best version of us. She made us feel at ease and comfortable in front of the camera and it really showed in the pictures. Do not hesitate to book with Jennifer you will not be disappointed! More...

Jen was our wedding photographer this past June and she went above and beyond on our special day. My husband and I live in Chicago and Jen was amazing to work with from a distance as we prepared for our San Francisco wedding.
She was always willing to jump on a phone conversation with us to go over details and she quickly got back to our emails during the entire planning process.
On the day of our wedding, Jen was a pleasure to work with, we loved her documentary-style photography - this is what drew us to her in the first place. She does an exceptional job capturing those rare special moments that happen throughout the entire wedding day. She was kind and easy to work with during family and couple portraits. My husband and I aren't used to be in front of the camera and she made it easy and an enjoyable experience.
Jen listened to everything we wanted to capture on our wedding day and she got even more than I could imagine. She even updated us throughout the editing process by sending us a few of her favorite shots, which was really exciting to see and share those sneak peaks with our family. We are beyond happy with everything Jen captured on our wedding day - from getting ready to formal couple and family portraits to all of the candid ceremony and reception photos. Jen truly captured the incredible joy of the entire day and I am so happy we were able to work with her.
For anyone planning a wedding, engagement shoot, or other formal events we HIGHLY recommend using Jen for all your photography needs. You will not be disappointed. Thank you, Jen, for being part of our big day and honestly capturing all the beauty and happiness of our wedding day - we now have a solid collection of photos to look back on for years to come.

Jen was a pleasure to work with at our wedding! She was very punctual, worked well with our videographer and was able to handle large family group photos with ease. Jen and her associate, Sarah, both were able to capture photos without being distracting during the ceremony and are both very friendly and easy to work with. Jen got our pictures to us quickly and they were absolutely incredible. I can't recommend her enough! More...

We loved everything about working with Jen! She was very professional and did a great job of guiding the show and keeping all of our many friends and family on task during pre-ceremony photos. Judging from our engagement photos and from the two preview photos we've received of our wedding thus far, the quality of her photographs is also awesome. I would absolutely recommend her to other brides and grooms without reservation. More...

Jen photographed our engagements and our wedding. She was so incredibly patient and kind throughout the entire process. Our engagement photos were absolutely gorgeous and just from the sneak preview she gave us from our wedding, I already know they are going to be amazing. Even in the 90 degree weather with a huge bunch of boisterous groomsmen, she remained calm and directed us all throughout the entire process. Thanks jen! More...

Jennifer was amazing from the planning stages of our wedding to the big day it self. As soon as she arrived in our hotel I felt at ease that Jennifer knew what she was doing to get the best photographs of the day. The turn around in getting our photographs were so fast that we actually received them whilst on our honeymoon and we are really pleased, she has captured many treasured memories of the day! More...

Jennifer Fairbanks was absolutely the perfect photographer for our engagement photos and wedding day! She responded quickly to any questions we had and super flexible! For our engagement photos she was down to go hiking with us to Lands End and on our wedding day we took another hike to Baker Beach! What I loved about her was she was available to be there the entire time during the day of the wedding for any photos that needed to be taken! Jennifer was quick at editing and sharing the final photos with us. We live in Hawaii so Jennifer was kind enough to mail us the USB with our final photos. My husband, my family and I love Jennifer's style of photography! It's absolutely beautiful. Follow her instagram @jfairbanksphotography the photos are phenomenal! :) More...

Jen did a great job. She dealt with the chaos and tiny rooms we were getting ready in with ease. She captured all of the moments we wanted. The weather didn't cooperate with outdoor photos but she adjusted the plans without difficulty. She was very easy to work with and I would highly recommend her to others. More...

Jen is a great photographer (just look at her portfolio!), as well as a wonderful individual. She met with us before the wedding day, to talk about what kind of pictures we would like. Then, when it all changed, the venue and the ceremony, she was flexible, supportive, and had a good sense of humor about it all! We loved her photographs and will cherish them always! Thank you Jen!
