Jen Marriner Photography » Creative, contemporary portraits for the Central New York area

Meet Jen

Here are a few things you might want to know about me...
• I'm a totally self-taught photographer. In college I majored in Education and French. Seriously.
• I'm the mother of two fun and loveable sons, ages thirteen and nine. You will probably see lots of pictures of them here.
• I also have the best husband a girl could ever ask for. You won't see many pictures of him, because he's camera shy.
• We have a big, crazy dog running through our little, bitty house. He's a Lab mix named Otto. Did I mention that he's crazy? Oh, and we decided to add a new puppy to the mix, just to keep things interesting. She's a husky named Ursa, and she's already running the house.
• During the school year I work as a tutor for the Fulton City School District. This is to satisfy my mother and let her know that yes, I am using that degree she paid for.
• I love people and I love to talk. If you call me, there is a good chance that I will talk your ear off. Don't be afraid to tell me to stop.
• I'm a list-maker. I honestly could not survive without my to-do lists.
• I really like bullet points.
• I've been doing this photography thing for over five years now, and I still get nervous and excited before every shoot!
• My true love, my passion, the thing that gets me out of bed every morning? It's the pictures. Pictures are my life.
