Jenny Kang Photography, Portland OR

We had Jenny as our wedding photographer for our July wedding in Seattle and there aren't enough words to express how happy we are to have had her as our photographer. All of the photos that we got were amazing and we are constantly reliving our wedding day, bringing us to tears and laughing out loud all over again. Jenny is so so easy to work with and we absolutely loved her style and approach to capturing our big day. Our #1 desire was to have photos that captured all of the emotions of the day as well as the beauty of our venue and she absolutely nailed it. We can't choose which photos we love the most! Huge thank you to Jenny - you were amazing to work with and made the day so easy and you captured so many amazing shots. <3

Lord knows I only want to get married once and I was so so grateful that Jenny showed up and did an amazing job. She brought along Kelly who was equally great.

We initially chose Jenny for our wedding photos because stylistically she leans towards more true-to-life/documentary photos. We wanted to capture all of the true memories of our day. So many of the other photographers referred to us were over-exposed and had weird dreamy vibes that just felt like the 1999 Xanga era.

Jenny and Kelly captured so many great moments that were posed and candid. The photos were so beautiful and my wife and I are still having a hard time deciding which ones to make into a physical album.

They listened to our wants and needs in terms of the types of photos we wanted to capture. We wanted to make sure we had very specific photos with our families, certain backdrops, and especially the candid photography of everyone laughing, dancing, and celebrating. Jenny's organization was top-notch and she really helped the day move along smoothly. We were so busy with all of our other logistics that it was a true weight off of our shoulders to have her experience shine in the way that she held the space and wrangled our gigantic families.

We could not possibly thank Jenny enough for being a part of our special day and capturing all the beautiful moments we can cherish forever!

Our Experience with Jenny Kang, professional photographer

Pete and I got engaged in November 2022 and we were planning our wedding by December for a July 2023 wedding. We received a list of professional photographers from the wedding venue coordinator we had selected. Pete and I reviewed the photographer portfolios from a list of 15 and we narrowed the list down. Pete was highly impressed with Jenny’s online portfolios and the inclusivity that she represents through her photos. Her aesthetic and the story telling through her photos is what we liked the most and we were hoping she could capture that on our wedding day. Jenny was also one of the first photographers to get back to us and we met via Zoom as Pete and I live in Alaska and Jenny is based in Oregon. We immediately felt at ease speaking to Jenny about what we were looking for and the type of pictures we hoped to have for our special day. Throughout the 6-7 months of wedding planning, we would have questions that would arise and Jenny was available to answer our questions and also put our minds at ease with what at times was some stressful wedding planning. On the day of our wedding, Jenny was very flexible with where we wanted to shoot our first look photos and had other locations at the venue in mind. It got a bit chaotic with family photos and “wrangling” family members and friends for family photos, but Jenny was patient throughout the process. After looking back through our wedding photos that Jenny provided us this fall, we are amazed at the variety of photos she was able to capture on our special day and we do feel it tells a story of our day capturing the high points of the ceremony and the memories of sharing our wedding day with the special people who were in attendance. We enjoyed working with Jenny throughout the planning process and then our special day. Pete and I would recommend Jenny to anyone for any occasion. Her professionalism and candor make her an amazing individual to work with.

Jenny is the absolute best. We have had half a dozen shoots with her over the years, including the time we hired her to shoot my parents’ 45th wedding anniversary. Jenny always helps us feel comfortable in front of the camera with her comfortable mien and warmth. She gives clear directions when needed and understands how to bring out the best in her clients in a situation where not everyone feels at ease. I have always been excited by the quality of the images we receive after each shoot. Jenny’s photos have become some of my most treasured family photographs and I could not more highly recommend her photography. Run, don’t walk, to book.

Jenny is an amazing photographer and a joy to be photographed by! Her range of direction produced many great shots and her warmth and confidence inspired me to see myself in a new light. I felt completely at ease during our session (despite my lifelong tendency towards camera-shyness). An outstanding experience and beautiful photos. Can’t recommend her enough.

Jenny has photographed my family for years, capturing photos in every season and stage of life; I truly hold these photos as my most prized possessions. She has an innate ability to make you feel completely at ease while she works her magic to capture the most special moments! I even have pictures of crying children that are somehow perfect because of her talent. Her calm confidence in her art is unmatched, she is amazing!

Wow what a fun experience! We were a tad nervous but Jenny instantly put us at ease and did alot of fun exercises to get us in our most natural selves. She has an eye for catching the special human moments and our love could not have been captured better. We had MANY versatile photos and picking favorites is impossible. She is professional, fun/hilarious, talented, and has a empathetic eye when capturing others. 11/10 stars for this one! Also the turn around time was very quick with editing that was perfect and not excessive. We got both color and black and white photos and the editing was phenomenal with out being over the top. Thank you Jenny!

Jenny is an amazing photographer! She captures the emotions of a family in the best way. We are repeat customers because my two young boys have gotten so comfortable with her. I still remember the first year my boys hated the thought of photos and Jenny made it so much fun and captured the best smiling moments as a family. I will forever cherish all the photos Jenny has captured for us every year when we take family photos. I have recommended her to other friends and I was first referred to her by a friend as well. This is such a great investment and I highly recommend her! Call her now! You won’t regret it.

Jenny is the absolute best! She is incredibly talented, professional, great with getting the best out of all her clients, including kiddos. You will not regret hiring her for any and all of your photography needs!

We've used Jenny for our family photos as well as our wedding. She is a talented photographer and we've always been amazed with her end product. As a bonus she's amazing with the boys who can be camera shy at times.
I would highly recommend Jenny for all your photography needs.

If you're in the market for a wedding photographer, I wholeheartedly recommend Jenny Kang! I'm a fellow wedding photographer based in Seattle. Several months ago, I came down with Covid, preventing me from fulfilling my commitment to photograph a booked wedding. I reached out to Jenny at the last minute, and she graciously made the trip from Portland to cover for me along with another photographer as her second.

Jenny's photography skills are truly extraordinary. She effortlessly captured every moment, infusing her distinct artistic eye and meticulous attention to detail into every shot. The relief I felt knowing my clients were in capable hands was immeasurable. And the clients? They had nothing but praise for Jenny. She seamlessly stepped into their day without prior collaboration during the planning stages and took charge effortlessly. And the images she delivered are simply outstanding.

If you're currently looking for a wedding photographer, I emphatically recommend you reach out to Jenny. Her expertise and dedication are unparalleled.
