Happy Birthday Sister

Happy birthday Annie! You are the best person I know. I wish you every happiness in the world. For those who haven't had the pleasure of meeting little Miss Annie Huang, she is not only a great sister, but absolutely critical to Jen Huang Photography. I am very much a boutique and family focused firm and Annie is both a talented photographer herself as well as a great manager. You'll likely speak to her when I'm abroad or on a shoot and she can help answer any questions since she knows JHP inside and out.


Cynthia & Tom: A Queens Garden Wedding featured on Brides New York

I'm so happy to announce that Cynthia and Tom's amazing wedding at the Queen's Farm will be published in Brides New York Spring and Summer 2010! When Cynthia and Tom met with me earlier in the year, I could tell that they were an extremely creative couple. Just like I predicted, their wedding was set in the picturesque garden and farm museum in Queens, NY with astoundingly creative details - especially on the part of Tom, who has major groom style! A gallery of the wedding can be found here.





The bride wore a Bridal Garden Novissima dress, hair by Commune Salon and flowers by Sprout Home. The groom wore J.Crew and Paul Smith sneakers with a boutonniere made from old film and a NYC map. Keil Brothers Nursery provided the succulents and Smoking Grill/Bon Soir provided the catering. Wedding bands/rings by DeBeers and Stuart Moore.

Elihu Bogan, A Jen Huang Photographer

He has been known as E, Hugh, Eli, Elijah... and many other different pronunciations but Elihu has been consistently part of the Jen Huang Photography family since the beginning. Starting out as a second shooter, Elihu quickly began to shoot weddings on his own and is now officially a Jen Huang Photographer. His work is saturated with a classic style mixed with whimsical details and strong candid moments. We snapped the shots below before an event in upstate New York. You can see more of Elihu's work on his Blog-Site.


Best Wishes for 2010!

Happy new year friends, family, bloggers, readers, brides & grooms! As the end of 2009 approaches, I wanted to thank and bless the people who have helped make it such a successful year and also wish everyone an even happier 2010.

2009 was blissful. I traveled from the east coast to the west coast and as far as Tibet to take photos for myself and others. I met so many interesting people and have probably tried every hor d'oeuvre there is. I am so honored by every single bride and groom who chose and trusted me on their important wedding day. I wish them joyful marriages with lots of kids!

I thank the creative bloggers and magazine editors who chose my work as inspirations, and I eagerly await my features in The Knot and Get Married magazine next year. Thank you to Style Unveiled, The Wedding Chicks, Brooklyn Bride and Style Me Pretty for their brilliant online spreads of my images. I am always taken aback by how different and awesome my photos can look through a talented editor's eye.

I am so lucky to be surrounded by such supportive people: my wonderful second shooters, Elihu, Liang, Anne and Emma - you guys had my back at every event and I can't wait to shoot with you again next year; My parents and best friends who constantly rave about my work to everyone and anyone; All the wonderful wedding vendors and bloggers who selflessly promoted my work both to clients and peers.

2010 is already starting to look fantastic. Summer is booking up fast and I am meeting with wonderful brides and grooms every week. There will be beautiful east coast and west coast weddings, as well as some stunning destination affairs. 2010 will be the first year that I will be a part of the prestigious New York Wedding Library. Along with this honor I will be participating in some fun bridal shows, meeting new vendors and creating some more ravishing Cypress and Queensberry albums.

Since winters are slightly less hectic than summers I hope to spend much of it at my cottage in San Diego, taking care of Gatsby, my new french bulldog. Trips are being planned for France, Spain, India and China. I might even drive my car across the country - perhaps a trip to the salt flats or the grand canyon?

It is both exhilarating and exhausting to have my whole life and future in my hands. But it's definitely a blessing and one I wouldn't trade for anything. Everyday is a breath of fresh air.

Here's to 2009 and Happy 2010!

Love,
Jen

Happy Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving in San Diego means 80 degree weather and warm post dinner walks with the ocean breeze. Blissful! My friend Josh had me over at his parent's house and their spread was so charming! It was a delicious meal. Thanks Clavells!

Laura & Jordyn - Wedding at Mandarin Hotel and PerSe

Laura and Jordyn were married at PerSe at the Time Warner Center at Columbus circle. What's not to love? The Vera Wang dress, Christian Louboutin wedding shoes, the awesome PerSe cuisine and the beautiful NYC fall foliage... the flowers were by Saipua - one of my favorite florists in NYC. Laura and Jordyn decorated the foyer of PerSe with simple and elegant bud vases and frame photos of their childhood. Guests were invited to sit at tables marked by bottles of vintage wines. I loved shooting this wedding - it was so classic New York.







My New Puppy - Gatsby the French Bulldog

Yes he looks like Stitch, or E.T. or a little piglet... but he is the love of my life!
