Jennifer grew up on the wild and beautiful coast of Newfoundland where her love for nature and all things delightful were abundantly fed. As a photographer she aims to capture the love that went into a well-crafted meal, the blossoms of local flowers and of products and people that positively change the world. Her journey to becoming a food, product and flower photographer came easily and fulfills her desire to help create a more beautiful, supportive, and delicious world. Comox Valley is now home and it brings her much joy to be surrounded by such precious nature.
