My dad has always been on more of the sentimental side. He loves photo gifts and anything that you have to put in thought. This has made it really hard to come up with something 3 times a year for 15 (adult) years. If you’re in the same boat, then here are some of my […]
Let’s get personal!Some of you know that we are a wife and husband team but maybe some are unaware because of our business name. When I started “Jennifer Van Elk Photography” in 2010, Steven had no intensions to capture photography. He did shoot video with me at our first wedding though. Shortly after that, he […]

356 days after our first family vacation, we had our second vacation as a family of three. With our busy schedules, it’s been hard to find free time- but we did it! This year we spent 4 days in Tennessee with my in-laws. It was way too short but it was worth the drive to […]
Most of you know that Steve, my husband, is my second shooter. The reason some of you don’t know he’s my second shooter is because he humbly gives me all the credit. Well, I don’t deserve all of the credit, because he is the biggest reason my business is where it’s at today. Before my […]
