Most recent review:
“Jen was so easy and fun to work with. She communicates helpfully and quickly and arrived day of ready to go. We wanted a naturalistic style and she understood completely and the photos turned out amazing. We are so glad we added on the film. She was thoughtful about making sure to take time to get planned shots when the event got busy, and asked kind questions to ensure the photos would be as preferred. She sent us the photos only one week after and put a password as we had asked. Her professionalism was clear in her gentle reminders and social smoothness. The 35 mm shooting was very worth it and we are so glad she traveled to us for our event. The photos were beautiful and we had everything we wanted from the day!”

Next, we’ll start planning your engagement session—one of my favorite parts of the process! It’s a great chance for us to get to know each other better while collaborating on locations and the overall vibe. I’ll send over my location library and outfit guide to help get us started. These sessions are always fun and relaxed as we explore beautiful spots and capture some truly special moments together.
Also, welcome to Torrance!
As a Torrance native, I was so excited to hear that you’re some of the newest residents! I love Torrance for many reasons, but one of the top being the food scene! Here are some of my favs in case you want to check them out:
Kansha Creamery - Their icecream base is so unique and rich. Hands-down my favorite icecream place!
Sushi Island - In the same plaza as Kansha, so you can do dinner & dessert! This place is like homestyle Japanese comfort food.
Kagura - If you like tonkatsu, this is THE BEST. Melts in your mouth kind of good.
Furaibo - Must get the tebasaki style wings. I can inhale these like a bag of chips, LOL. They’re savory, crispy, delightful!
