Jennie Crate Photographer

At our studio, we believe in the power of love and connection. We believe that your wedding day is a celebration of your relationship, a testament to the bond you share with your partner, and a chance to surround yourself with the people who make you feel seen, loved, and cherished. As a photographer specializing in LGBTQ+ weddings, I, Jennie, am committed to creating an environment where you can feel comfortable, relaxed, and truly yourself.

A Celebration of Your Love

Your wedding day is a day to celebrate your love, your relationship, and the bond you share with your partner. It's a day to be surrounded by the people who make you feel seen, loved, and cherished. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering with a few close family members, a backyard BBQ with your closest friends, or a grand celebration at a beautiful venue, we're here to help you capture the essence of your special day.

Connected, Not Intimate

We prefer to use the term "connected wedding" instead of "intimate wedding." It's not about the number of people at your wedding; it's about how you feel with those people. Your wedding day is a day to shamelessly make out with your partner, hold each other close, and celebrate on the dance floor surrounded by people who love and accept you for who you are. It makes sense that you wouldn't want to do that with your borderline-homophobic uncle.

Breaking the Rules and Making Your Own

There are no rules on your wedding day. You can make your cat your ring bearer, take portraits with your chosen family, or have your best friend officiate your ceremony. You are in charge, and we're here to help you capture every moment of your special day.

Planning Resources

Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, especially when you have family members, wedding planners, and social media influencers weighing in on what you should do. But remember, this day is about you and your partner. It's about how you feel and what you want. To help you navigate the planning process, we've created guides covering everything from finding LGBTQ+ vendors to navigating tricky family dynamics to picking the perfect, gender-affirming attire.
