For couples who’d rather be present than perfectly posed

Your wedding day deserves to be felt, not staged. It’s not about performing for the camera, it’s about being fully there for the moments that matter.

the connection, the meaning,
the in-between moments that tell the real story

Images that stop you in your tracks and make you say, “Damn.”

And I can’t wait to show you how!

Jennifer is the most amazing photographer and I cannot tell enough people about her incredible work. I was intrigued by her photo-journalist style and I LOVED her use of light and candid photos. I was always bored with wedding photos because they all felt staged. With Jennifer’s pictures you can feel the joy, the laughter, the music, the sheer entertainment of a really really fun and beautiful wedding.

Hello I’m Jennifer

Your Documentary Wedding Photographer for Big Feelings

Colorado-based.
Backed by 10+ years in the wedding industry and a degree in photojournalism.

I don’t just show up with a camera, I bring experience. The kind that helps you build a timeline that actually lets you breathe. The kind that knows how to pivot when the weather turns, family dynamics flare, or the dance floor gets unhinged.

Your day won’t feel stiff or overly posed.
It will feel honest. Dynamic. Fully lived in.

You stay present and I’ll make sure you remember how it felt.

"What's the point in spending all that money on the day to have photos that don't reflect how magical it felt?

I tried to shop around and be budget conscious, but I kept realizing budget photographers generate what look like budget photos. Jennifer's work was the portfolio I kept coming back to, I couldn't find anyone else whose style felt like hers, the sheer joy and fun of the day that she captures!

I remember the day through the lens of her camera and she captured the absolute best of the moments in the exact way I wanted to remember them."

“I wish I could give rate Jennifer Lourie Photography 6.0 or higher!!!

Jennifer INSTANTLY made me feel like I was in the right hands! She made me feel so comfortable like I was an old friend and was easily the best decision we made for our wedding day.

Her attention to detail and love of wedding photography is unmatchable. We felt cared about and our pictures speak for themselves. Her photos tell a story of our wedding day and her aesthetic and attention to detail shines in her work.”

- Jayna & Daniel

“We loved working with our photographer, Jennifer Lourie.

As we did more research, we loved that she went to school for photojournalism and that her goal as a photographer was not to overproduce and make everything look “perfect”, but capture things exactly as they were.

She is so stealthy, we barely noticed she was there! We never felt like we couldn’t be in the moment because we had to pose for a picture. She really went above and beyond and we were ecstatic with how the final gallery turned out.”

- Carrie & Eran
