Hanabata Days Photography LLC

As other reviewers have shared, I too can share that Jen is professional, patient, and very creative. I love the props she provides for the 1^st birthdays! I’ve worked with her on at many 1^st Birthdays and I always look forward to see how her props compliment the party theme.
An event (1^st Birthday, wedding reception, graduation party) will only happen once and you want to ensure that you pick a photographer who can catch those special moments on film. You also want a photographer that can provide those special shots to demonstrate their creativity. You also want photos that bring out emotion.
I know she also does photoshoots as well… both indoors and outdoors. Pictures paint a thousand words and the photos she posts definitely speak thousands.
As a business owner in the entertainment industry since 1995, I have worked with many photographers. If you’re looking for a professional photographer who is creative, easy to work with, respectful to your guests, and patient to work with children to get that great photo, I highly recommend Hanabata Days Photography LLC.

Jen is very patient and always ready to shoot.
I’ve done a few shoots with her over the past year and they have come out excellent. We have both pictures in a studio and outdoors. She is patient and kind with my daughter. She uses props and they make the pictures just that much more adorable.
Jen edits the pictures in a very timely manner and I always have a variety of angles, poses and pictures to choose from. My entire family is always SO impressed by the photos :)

As a gift to my sister and my niece/​god-​daughter I asked Jen if she could do a photo session for my 2 month old niece, Lily. My sister had 2 outfits prepared and another one was going to be a mermaid outfit, which we were all excited about!
When the mermaid outfit arrived — it was too big for the little baby (and mind you, my niece is half samoan! Haha) So my sister and I had to rush and make a quick costume for the photo session. So we made her a little Tahitian girl outfit in hopes that she will follow in her mom’s footsteps haha!
Jen was great and professional. Her studio was comfortable, adorable, and amazing! When our baby toys did not suffice in those critical «crying» moments she had back-​up toys that were perfect in either keeping Lily asleep or to keep her entertained and not crying. She was very patient with us when we were running behind schedule (due to the ti-​leaf skirt making emergency) and when Lily was being fussy.
Jen is also extremely creative! Each photo scene was so adorable and so unique and even though she had not met Lily prior to the session, they fit Lily perfectly! Even though we did not have our mermaid outfit for Lily, the Tahitian outfit worked out really well with the setting Jen created for that session. It was absolutely amazing that I think Lily did not want to leave the little made up ocean scenery. Therefore, Jen is not only really creative but very adaptable!
I highly highly highly recommend Jen for all your photography needs!

We love Hanabata Days Photography! More importantly our kids love Jen! She’s great with children & more patient than I could even be with my own kids! Aside from her great approach & being so sweet, her photos are amazing! She has a great eye & knows just how to capture the perfect photos! She’s done a few sessions for us now & I’d recommend her to anyone looking to have professional photos done!

I’ve chosen different photographers for different milestones in my life, but had booked Hanabata photography to do my nephew’s 1^st bday party after being highly recommended by a friend. She was very professional, AWESOME with kids, TIMELY (which is VERY important for me), and has a very keen eye for candid photos. We were all very impressed. Needless to say, I think my search for a great photographer is over.

We have been seeing Jennifer for a few years now. Whenever we need pictures done, we know we can count on Jen to do an awesome job. We had our engagement pictures, maternity pictures, new baby pictures, family photos, Christmas pictures, and mother’s day pictures all done by Jen. Not only is she great with the kids, but she comes up with phenomenal locations and ideas to make your pictures one of a kind. Whenever we finish a session, our kids talk about Aunty Jennifer for days and days. She really has a unique creative talent behind the camera, with the kids, and in the editing room where she finalizes precious lifetime memories for families. There are many photographers out there, but you’d be silly not to call Hanabata Days Photography and Jennifer.
