Welcome to the Jennifer Dery Photography Blog!

Hi there, thanks for visiting!

I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in San Diego, CA.  I work mostly in San Diego but I travel the world for assignments now and then also.  After visiting here please take a peek at my main websites too:  Jennifer Dery PhotographyJen Dery Kids

I specialize in weddings but also do a fair amount of portrait and travel photography.  I do some commercial shoots now and then as well… always fun to mix things up!  I have a very documentary, or “storytelling” style.  I love to show real moments in real settings while trying to achieve flattering and beautiful images.

Take a look through the blog.  You can even search a little based on venue in the box at the top right.  I hope you enjoy viewing my recent work!

  Pink, Pink, Pink Wedding Photography at Rancho Valencia – Danielle & Nathan

I know Rancho Valencia sets up a party tent on the tennis court all the time, but it was the first time I’ve seen it in person and WOW, it was amazing!  Because of the way viewing is set up for a tennis match, the tent gets a very regal position and really pops.

Danielle and Nathan live in New York and have a very urban lifestyle.  As much as the couple really loved Rancho Valencia, they also wanted some images that reflected their more urban tastes so we took to the streets.  I love wandering down alleys for great light and locations.  A happy photographer makes happy images!

Thanks to all for all your hard work in creating this beautiful event.  Just goes to show that with great vendors a destination wedding can come together perfectly!

  Purple and Chartreuse Wedding at The Santa Luz Club – Lindsay & Barry

Lindsay and Barry had me come up for a visit earlier this year to San Francisco to shoot their engagement photos.  We had a great time wandering around the Ferry Building, out on the pier and around downtown.   We had a great time and I knew they would bring their great vibe to their wedding day.  I’ve definitely been looking forward to this one all year.

Purple and chartreuse ruled the reception.  The best idea (to this sweet tooth) were the individual berry pies and ice cream bar that matched perfectly with the decor and were the replacement for cake.  I wish I could have tasted one, but I’m sure I can order one from Michele Coulon sometime.  Now that berries are in season today would probably be a good time, oh yes!

Thanks everyone for such a fun and detail filled event.  Great light and lots to photograph is a photographer’s dream!  Mary, you rock!
