The handsome little guys you see in these photos are my two amazing sons, Adrian and Jaxon. When I'm not behind a camera, you can find me hanging out with them or their equally handsome father, my husband Will, in the beautiful town of New Smyrna Beach, Florida.  
​
​For those not native to NSB, New Smyrna is a beautiful beach town, just south of Daytona Beach.  With it's beautiful beaches, art town feel and delicious seafood, it's the perfect spot for your vacation or destination wedding.  I grew up here, and have certainly learned my way around the area, as well as some amazing photo spots.  Looking for a vendor or venue for your wedding? I can suggest the best and the most affordable.  Looking for great spots to visit while in town, something for the family, or maybe an adult's night out? I can recommend that too. 
 
My partner in crime, assistant and second shooter is Peter Harrigan.  He is the fun-loving, dapper gentleman you will see with me in our sessions or at your wedding. Pete has been my best friend for over twelve years now and has helped me grow my business to the next level. He is great at keeping tempo and keeping those hesitant guys in your party up-beat and entertained. I am sure your family will love him as much as mine does!
 
Photography was always something I enjoyed doing.  It was always a hobby until one day I woke up and decided it was time to turn it into a career.  And I must say, there is nothing better than doing what you love for a living.  For this reason,  I am very thankful for my clients and treat them with the utmost respect. Whether you are spending $50 or $2,500 expect only the best treatment from me.
​
As for my style of photography, I consider it fun!  I photograph a number of families and if there is one thing I've learned over the years, it's how to bring the best out of your kiddos.   I come to each photo session with a game plan.  There is no down time, just lots of fun family photos.  I do a little bit of posing,  and then once I've gotten a feel for your family I begin pulling out those great, once in a life time moments.  Many of my clients find their sessions so fun and so comfortable, they book every year they visit the beach. Have young ones? Well don't fret, because me too! I play with and photograph my toddlers on a daily basis, I know all about keeping up, and how to handle those fussy situations. 
​
For weddings,  you won't find another photographer who makes you feel more comfortable or catered to.  The key to successful wedding photography is organization, a game plan, and an energetic personality. I bring all three of those qualities to the table.  Ask me for a reference.  My brides say again and again how fun I am to work with.  Though I'm based out of New Smyrna, I travel nationally (travel fees apply outside of Florida).
​
Seniors,  hate the senior portraits you got from school? Mom was that price too high?  Get senior portraits you'll love and can afford from Jen Arney Photography.  No cheesy photo shoots here seniors, I'll make you look and feel your best. I have hair and make-up stylists who come on location with me if you want to pamper your Senior for a day, and really make them feel like a million bucks
​
For commercial photography, you will find me very detail oriented.  You tell me your vision and I'll make it happen.  Have an idea but no vision? Allow me to create a vision for you.
