Elopement and lifestyle family photography that captures real love, real life, and everything in between.
The Best Moments
Are the Ones
You Didn’t Plan For.
Your Life Isn’t Posed. Neither Are My Photos. I believe in storytelling over staging and the beauty of a connection. Whether you’re eloping in the desert, the beach, or the mountains or chasing toddlers at golden hour, your story deserves to be remembered—exactly as it is.

Hey, I’m Jen—wife, mama,
and the heart behind
J. Nicotri Photography.
If you’re here, you’re not just after pretty pictures—you want to feel something when you look back. The quiet before baby arrives. The blur of newborn days. The beautiful mess of family life. Or that wild love that made you say yes on a mountaintop. I get it—because I’ve lived it. I missed documenting my daughter’s newborn stage, and it still aches. When my son was born, I made a promise: never again. That promise turned into a calling—leaving behind 15 years in business to capture stories that matter. This isn’t just photography. It’s a full experience—crafted with care, curated with intention, and built to help you slow down and hold on. From luxury heirloom albums to a client wardrobe and session prep that feels effortless, every detail is handled. Licensed, insured, CPR certified—and deeply human. I'm here to help you feel seen, celebrated, and wrapped in something real.


“She has this magical touch and really knows how to capture the moment.” “Jen is AMAZING and we can’t recommend her enough!” “You WILL have THE best photos to cherish a lifetime!” “She truly takes her time to make sure the littles are comfortable and safe.” “The photos have been the best quality. I couldn't ask for any better.”
The Capsule Wardrobe — Thoughtfully Styled, Effortlessly You
Worried about what to wear? Don’t be.
My curated client wardrobe is filled with soft, timeless pieces for mamas, babies, and growing families—so you can stop stressing about outfits and start feeling fully present.
From flowing dresses to the coziest newborn knits, every piece photographs like a dream and was hand-selected to make you feel beautiful, comfortable, and completely you.
It’s just one of the ways I take care of the details—so you can focus on the moments.

A luxury experience designed with you in mind:

Because your memories deserve more than digital files
—they deserve to be seen, held, and remembered.

I already know your story’s going to be beautiful—and I truly can’t wait to meet you and help you tell it.

Capturing real moments, in every season, for every story.
