Choosing a Photographer is Not like Shopping for Jeans

If you want a new pair of jeans, you visit your favorite stores and try a few pairs on,  you check yourself out in the fitting room mirror, and you know right away if the jeans flatter you.

You can see exactly what you’re buying.


You can't see your wedding pictures before your day.

On some level, choosing a professional wedding photographer is an act of faith. This is true for much of the wedding planning experience! Hard decisions, right?


The key is to pick someone with whom you feel you can be yourself, this is the foundation of great images. You want someone who can guide you into the most flattering poses, and who can help you not to feel self-conscious in the process. You want someone with an eye to capturing your natural laughter and smile, and who is always watching for candid moments.

Also, you have to pick someone who has the experience to deliver great images no matter what happens on your wedding day. Knowing how to light any room, and being able to riff when the weather doesn't cooperate are crucial. You may have planned a lovely summer garden wedding, with an outdoor cocktail hour and dinner in a rustic-chic barn, but if you get a thunderstorm and your photographer can't figure out what to do if they have no natural light.... you're in trouble!

    THESE FOLKS ARE TOP. NOTCH.


    My partner suffers from severe anxiety around her appearance, and reacts negatively to most photos of her. We were both  very nervous about having our wedding photographed, and apologized in advance to Zenobia Studios for what we knew would be a challenging event for them.


    Jenny was beyond professional - she was patient, gentle, and deeply understanding. She put my partner at ease right away, and checked in with her throughout the process to make sure she stayed that way. Jenny made the whole thing fun, which was above any of our expectations (including the bride's family).


    The photos came out BEAUTIFULLY, and even my partner found a few that she loved. Jenny and her team are collaborative, professional, and have the emotional sensitivity to navigate difficult and tense situations. I have recommended Zenobia to every one of my friends ever since then, and all of them have thanked me afterward for the tip.


    You want an incredible shoot for your special day? You'll get it and then some. But if your experience demands more than just a world-class photographer -- as ours did - you want Zenobia.

    We learned of Zenobia Studios through an extended family member whose wedding they had photographed. After seeing the creative, unique, and downright beautiful photos from their engagement shoot and wedding day, our decision was made! I can't say ENOUGH good things about my experience with Jen and Zenobia Studios. Wedding planning and selecting the right vendors can be stressful, but Jen was the only photographer that we met with and she made our decision remarkably easy. From the very start she took the time to learn about what was most important to us and help us define our vision for the day. Not only did she provide us with the most spectacular engagement and wedding photos, but she was an absolute joy to work with along the way. Jen is easily one of the funniest, sweetest, and most friendly people we have had the pleasure of encountering and her creativity is second to none. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, as if we were hanging out with an old friend, and captured the most beautiful memories. On our wedding day, Jen and her associate, Dave, joined us bright and early, capturing every moment as we got ready, walked down the aisle, and danced the night away. We now have, quite literally, thousands of pictures to remember our special day. To top it off, Jen worked her creative magic again as she hand-picked the absolute perfect leather album (in one of our wedding colors, no less) and strategically placed the outrageous number of photos that we requested (and also some extras that she just happened to love!). I would HIGHLY recommend Jen and any of her associates at Zenobia Studios. We will surely be lifelong clients and are looking forward to having Zenobia Studios capture many special memories to come.

    Jen is an amazing photographer & so personable. She did several sessions with my sister & her family, and I knew I’d want her for my family photos when I started my own family. I was right! She did our maternity photos, newborn shoot, 6mo, and 1yr family photos & we have been obsessed with each and every one of them. She is passionate and cares about her clients. She loves my baby and truly enjoys interacting with him. Highly recommend if you want to have a fun, engaging, and relaxed photo shoot- no matter what kind of photos you’re wanting!!

    Jen is an incredibly personable, fun, has a ton of tips and tricks to make you comfortable, and is easy to talk to. She is so easy to coordinate with and we had such a good time getting to know her. We ultimately decided to choose our friend to photograph our wedding, but I had such a good experience coordinating with and getting to know her that I had to share a review.

We cannot wait to have Zenobia Studios photograph our special day. Jennifer, the owner, does INCREDIBLE work and definitely knows what she is doing behind the lens. She made my fiancé and I feel extremely comfortable during the engagement shoot, and found the most beautiful location for us to take pictures at.

I love shooting weddings and engagement sessions in Newport in the colder months! Obviously Newport is a fantastic seaside wedding destination in the summer, but colder seasons give me the opportunity to use the fantastic architecture and history of Newport RI more. Ochre court is on the Cliff Walk and right off Bellevue Avenue, so it’s convenient to lots of fantastic additional photo-worthy vistas. Within walking distance you can take advantage of beautifully landscaped gardens, cliffs stretching high over the ocean, winding stone pathways, then of course the stunning building and stone terrace at Ochre Court. It is possible to get inside of the building as well, but it requires advanced planning and permission from Salve Regina (the university that owns Ochre Court)’s permission. I can’t tell you how many past clients assume they will be able to pop into any of the Newport mansions for their sessions!I loved this client’s funky sparkly dress and her fur coats! Such a fun and different choice of attire, and also perfect for Ochre Court, like a nod to Newport’s long black tie history!It was freezing out, but these two didn't flinch! Their charisma and natural laughter made posing a breeze, I barely had to do anything!
