Simply AMAZING! Jen has taken photos for my family and I a good 10 times now. Every time we have a secession with her, she amazes me more and more. Jen is so great at capturing our families personalities and turns them into a true work of art. She's amazing with my children and has such a way with them. Jen is so patient, helps answer all my questions and actually listens to my ideas for what I want to get out of each shoot. Jen continues to work with us and gives us these amazing photos of beauty that will last us a lifetime. Words just don't describe how much we love her and her company. Thank you for all you've done for us, so far! If you're looking for the best, Simple Smiles is it!!!! read more

See all

I highly recommend Jen! I found her here on Yelp and she exceeded our expectations. We used her for family photos with 3 generations which included our 3 month old baby. She was so accommodating to come take our pictures on Christmas Eve at the beach. She was super fun to take pictures with and provided the perfect level of direction for the "poses." Jen is a really sweet and bubbly person to be around and makes the whole experience enjoyable. She did so well with our baby, too! The pictures really speak for themselves. It's so special to have beautiful family photos where everyone looks great in them! The whole process with Jen from payment to photo selection could not be more smooth. We will definitely use her again for another session! read more

We hired Jen to photograph our wedding and ended up using her for engagement photos as well. All of our photos turned out incredible! Jen is so sweet and great at what she does. She was always on time and extremely patient with my husband an i since we aren't super comfortable in front of the camera. I've gotten so many compliments on our wedding photos and I'm so grateful to have found a photography like Jen. We will definitely be recommending her to our friends and using her in the future. read more

We have only know Jen for a short amount of time, but I feel like we've had a friendship for many years, her energy and personality is so sweet and fun! We highly recommend Jen, for her quality, professionalism, affordability and creative talent. Jen is wonderful at communicating and getting our requests done asap. We feel we were very important to her, so we have hired her as our photographer so far 3 times in the last 3 months!!!! One thing that really sticks out too, is that Jen listens to our wants and ideas! Jen comes prepared with lots of fun props and ideas herself, which makes it all the more fun! Did I mention, she is extremely patient with our children! Simple Smiles Photography is Orange County's hidden treasure, which is being revealed quickly! read more

Our family has had two photo shoot types with Simple Smiles Photography and I have been so pleased and happy with the photographs and experiences at both. One was a family/extended family of 8 members total (3 months-61 years old age range) and she was able to pose everyone quickly and efficiently. We had several photograph options of everyone! The second was a photo shoot of just my 6 month old daughter. Again several amazing photographs! Jen brought a couple perfect props again that added that touch to the photographs needed, she for sure has an eye for photography! Jen's eye is great.. some other photographers are "wanna be" because they look up on Pinterest and try to copy, Jen is a natural and does not need any inspiration except for your location and personality! I love working with her. I have referred friends to her as well who have had the same amazing experience with great photographs to show from it! Can't wait to book again! read more

Jen is our go to photographer. She is amazing at what she does and really treats her clients like family. We always want to try photos with some fun props (mainly our son's toys) and she always finds ways to incorporate our son's fun personality throughout the shoot. She has even gotten my husband who is anti pictures to smile every shoot. Thanks Jen for continually to capture our family and all of our unique personalities. read more

Jen has been my family photographer for years and I cannot be thankful enough! She was there for our first family photos with our new son, to engagement photos, to wedding photos! Her style is so graceful and the moments she captures is so touching. If you want a great photo shoot, with a lively, go for it attitude photographer, Jen is your girl! read more

I absolutely loved Jen and her photos! She has the best energy during a photo shoot that makes you feel so comfortable. She did my boudoir shoot and was amazing. She was really encouraging and positive throughout the whole process. She also did my wedding with her partner who were both great! They captured great moments and made sure I had everything I wanted. I would highly recommend her. read more

I can not say enough great things about Jen! She is amazing, so sweet and professional! Everyone at our wedding loved her and I pretty much loved every photo she took. She captured each special moment and always had a smile on her face, thank you so much! read more

We absolutely loved Jen! She was a pleasure to work with, gave us clear direction and implemented her ideas! She also made sure I got all the shots I wanted by showing me some pics before we left! Most photographers take the pics and don't show you anything and leave you questioning whether the shoot went well or not, but she gave me her camera and let me look through all the pics so I know I got what I wanted! Will definitely work with her in the future read more

Love this Photoprapher!! She did such an Amazing Job on our Family photos and was so great with my toddler, He is a handful but her warmed up to her so quick. Her pricing is so great , Ive paid so much more money with other photographers but her pricing is very affordable, Ill definitely use her again. read more

Loved this session with Jen! She was fun, sweet and made you comfortable when taking the pictures! My husband and I did not feel pressured and fake at any time so the pictures felt natural and real. I would recommend to loved ones. She is a professional who takes pride in her pictures and loves what she does. Thanks Jen! read more

Jen and Tiffany of Simple Smiles Photography were amazing. While doing our engagement photo shoot, the both of them were fantastic and very enthusiastic about their work. One had a very traditional style and the other very artsy, which is a perfect mix between the two. We just booked Simple Smiles Photography to shoot our wedding. read more

Jen has been for photographing our family for a few years now. She always does an excellent job capturing the moment. Our kids know her by name and are are comfortable and natural in front of her lense! read more

I've used Simple Smiles twice and love love my pictures. Jen takes beautiful photography and she is professional. I received my edited pics back within a week of the shoots. Her prices are also very affordable. I will be using her again soon. read more

I'm so glad we found Jen! We have 5 kids ages 16, 11, 3, 2 and 3 months and she has taken the best family photos we've ever had by far. She is so great with kids that after the first session our 3 year old was asking when she could play with her new friend, Jen, again. She gets the most natural smiles from my older 2 (who are too cool for pictures now), has the patience of a saint with our 2 year old and had our 3 month old in giggles. We left the first session feeling like we'd made a new friend and we were just as excited to see her for the second session as we were to get the pictures taken. She's talented, friendly, patient and the utmost professional. She's definitely stuck with us from here on out for family photos! read more

Such a great photographer!!! Experienced and creative. She worked with us and was able to fit us in last minute and accomodate our schedule. I will definetely be using her in the future for our family photos and photos of are baby girl. read more

Jen has been photographing my family for several years! She does an amazing job, totally professional but feels more like a family friend. I have a son who is special needs and does such an amazing job with him. He feels so comfortable with her. If you want some beautiful shots of your family, you must call Jen! read more

if I could add more stars I would. Jen is amazing! she did our Christmas photos last year, which were amazing, but then, she completely out did herself with our children's birthday photos! I still cant get over how beautiful they are. she is a true artist, but knows how to get in touch with her clients vision as well. she is absolutely wonderful. read more

I'm sorry Sherry J but you couldn't be more wrong. Jen photographed our family beautifully on multiple occasions and we couldn't be more pleased with her professionalism and talent. I was recommended her to her by a friend and I'm so grateful. I refer all my family and friends to her, especially the ones with little kids. She has special skills to capture the most amazing moments. Thank you Jen! read more

I used Simple Smiles for my 2011 Christmas Card photos and I am beyond pleased at how they turned out! This was by far the most stress-free experience of my entire Holiday season! Jen was nothing short of amazing! She was flexible, creative, and totally patient. We had chosen a pretty out-of-the-way beach location for our shoot and she hauled all of her camera stuff down with a huge smile. Such a trooper! I was pretty picky in making sure none of our photos were too "cheesy" and or "cliche" ... and Jen had so many out of the box and creative ideas we were able to try out and make our own. Her patience with my 5 month old puppy and boyfriend who hates taking photos was fabulous! Once I received my edited photos I would have paid ten times the amount for how wonderfully they turned out! Our family and friends all loved our cards and had nothing but compliments for our photographer! I can not wait to use her again for our next Photography needs ... pretty sure ill be giving "Simple Smiles" as a gift to some expectant mothers and soon to be brides! read more

We just had family picture taken by Jen and they turned out amazing! My kids hate getting family pictures taken and she made it fun for them. She interacts with the kids and makes them have a good time and brings out their natural smiles. read more
