FEATURED ARTIST FRIDAY / JENNY JIMENEZ

This girl makes me laugh. I mean really really laugh. Jenny has such a fun spirit about her, you can’t help but be in a good mood around her. I first emailed Jenny a couple weeks ago to tell her how much I respected her work and how so much of her personality is easily shown just by being on her blog. I told her that if she ever needed an assistant, I want to be that gal she calls! And believe it or not, Jenny was kind enough to let me assist her on a really fun engagement shoot a few days ago! Not only did she let me assist, she also invited me to lunch where we had a chance to chat about life, business, and techie photography stuff! She also got me hooked on those dang girl scout cookies…not good.

And I’ll say this again, I don’t do these posts because I think my blog is something special. I truly feature those who inspire me to think outside the box, those who push me to be better, and those I think that will inspire the people who read my blog. And Jenny is just one of those people who inspires. I simply adore how fun her photography is. It’s full of life, fun compositions, great color, and the best couples. She really has the ability to bring out the goofy side in people! Be sure to check out Jenny’s blog by clicking here.

Meet Jenny.

Here are just a few fun questions Jenny answered for me!

What or who inspires you?
Music, humor and love have been the three constants in my life. They wake me up in the morning, get me through the day and allow me to sleep well at night.

When you’re not shooting what is your favorite thing to do?
- Sing in the shower, dance around the house, bury my face into the soft fur my two dogs, Luka & Simone and tell my husband Robin how much I freaking love him.

What is it that you love most about being a photographer?
I’m creating art that people genuinely care about and has meaning in their lives.

And now, please enjoy some of Jenny’s fabulous work!

Jenny J - Um, that should read I’m flattered, not flattering. Fattening would be more like it. Damn Girl Scouts & their Thin Mints – what a freakin misnomer!

Jenny J - Tonhya! I’m flattering you’ve devoted blog space to a crazy old broad like me. Thank you. It was fun talking shop with you and thanks for all of your help on M&A’s shoot. I loved hearing your laughter over my shoulder. It made it so much more fun. Thanks again!
