Jen Wood Photography bio picture

Welcome ...

to my blogsite ... blog and website all rolled into one. I'm being a little crazy here straying from the traditional website AND blog, but I found that when I had both I was directing people to the blog way more often than the gallery site. Plus, I never, and I mean NEVER, updated the main site. This way, everything's always updated and you only have to go to one place. No more switching back and forth. That's just for you (ok ... and a little for me). 

A little about me: I am completely in love with my sweet husband (Jeff), our beautiful daughter (London), our dogs (Jack and Morgan), and our life.  My other loves (in no particular order): family, spending time with great friends, warm socks, hot baths, traveling, camping, campfires, the great outdoors, autumn, being out on the lake, fishing (when we're catching something), 80s music, my baby's sweet and contagious smile, wine, my own caesar salads, laughing and then laughing some more. I am genuine. I am sentimental, often to the point of total sappiness. I am passionate about photography and have been for nearly 25 years. 

It is my hope to not only share with you some of the work that I'm doing and show off my awesome clients, but also to let you into my life just a little.  It's hard for me to find time to work on personal things when there is real work to be done, but I'm going to try ... really, I am.

So, sit back and peruse these pages.  If you see something you like, please leave a comment. Who doesn't like a little blog love?  If you'd like to be notified when something new has been added, please feel free to subscribe to the blog (RSS or email) above.  Thanks for stopping by!  

Time to Vote …

Every year, Nashville Paw Magazine asks their 50,000 readers to vote for the best of Nashville’s pet community.  Last year, Jen Wood Photography won a Nashville Paw Readers’ Choice Award for one of the top three in the category “Best Pet Photographer” (here’s my post from last year).

Well, it’s that time of year again.  If you’re a fan of what I do here, I’d appreciate your vote!  Winners will be announced in the October/November issue.

Click here to vote!

Also, be sure to pick up the August/September issue of Nashville Paw Magazine (will be available August 1st).  Yesterday, Heather Davis (Publisher and Editor of Nashville Paw Magazine) and I met up with the good folks out at Safe Place for Animals in Gallatin to photograph the cover pet for the next issue.  One thing I love about the Paw is that each issue features adoptable pets and the magazine covers are not just cute pets, they’re pets who are in need of good homes.RCA_Flyer

London … 3 months

 Here’s our sweet girl at 3 months.  Yes, she’s almost 4 months now, but listen, if I’m only running a month behind, I feel like I’m doing pretty good! :)   I actually meant to post them a couple weeks ago, but got sidetracked … imagine that!

I swear, this girl just keeps getting cuter by the day!  IMG_5972

I adore being this little girl’s mommy!  We are truly blessed!

Meet Hagan …

Hagan is a beautiful, big ol’ bundle of energy … he’s a lab … enough said!  Being that I’m a bit partial to labs, since I have two lab mixes at home, I was up to the challenge.  :)  Interestingly enough, he didn’t seem to be too interested in a photo shoot.  All he wanted to do was play … oh, and eat treats!  Imagine that.  So, we played … and he got treats! :)

Nashville Flood

The last two days have been insane with all the horrible weather and flooding going on in Nashville.  Historic rain amounts have flooded creeks and rivers causing major flooding all over the city and outlying areas.  All three interstates running through the city have been closed at one point or another.  Thankfully, we escaped any damage.  I am so grateful, especially seeing how many people and homes have been affected.  The waters threatened to flood our subdivision, but we’re JUST high enough I guess.  It did flood all around us however, as Mill Creek, one of the major creeks causing all of this, runs the boundary of our subdivision.  It merely flooded the common area, which is right across the street from our house, and all roads leading in and out of here.  We can’t get out.  As far as I know, no homes in our subdivision were damaged.

Here are a couple images I took on Saturday evening during a lull in the rain.

These are looking north on Old Hickory Boulevard, right outside the entrance to our subdivision. Mill Creek runs under a bridge up ahead that you can no longer see in these shots.

This is entrance to the subdivision right across the street from the entrance of ours.

These next couple are of the common area that is right across the street from us.

Thankfully, the rain has ended and the next couple of days should be dry.  Please keep the people of Nashville in your prayers as the clean-up effort begins.

a crush …

Jeff needed some updated headshots … I was happy he chose me to be his photographer ;)

I must say, I have a SERIOUS crush on this guy.

LOVE YOU, BABE!
