    Where your family's love story becomes art.

    Montreal Family, Maternity and Newborn Photographer.

Greater Montreal Photographer Jen Blanco

Hola! I'm Jen, your Montreal Family Photographer.

Is parenting hard? freaking hard. Does time fly? it does, it really does, and even more when you’re in the middle of cleaning sticky hands, regulating emotions (theirs and yours 😅) or having dance parties in the middle of the kitchen. That is why photos are so incredibly important to me, and being able to give you and your family the gift of timeless memories fills my heart in ways words can’t express.

When you work with me, you're not just hiring someone who knows how to handle a camera - you're getting a partner dedicated to capturing the love you can't put into words. The real, raw and intimate bond that makes your family, one-of-a-kind.

    “Jen is absolutely wonderful! I have two toddlers and it was my first experience doing a family photoshoot so I didn’t know what to expect. I assumed that my kids would be running around like crazy and we won’t be able to get nice photos. Yes, my kids were running around like crazy; I was amazed at how patient Jen was and how great she is with kids. She has a great eye and great talent for photography. She’s able to take the perfect shot in an active setting. We couldn’t be happier! Thank you for the amazing experience and the beautiful photos. We’ll cherish them forever.”

    “I think few photographers manage to capture the real essence of life's moments in images. Many create that: simply images, some create beautiful images. Others, like Jen, manage to capture and transmit the emotion of life in them for eternity.
    Thank you Jen for the incredible photographs you gave us. I loved your ease when it came to letting the moment appear alone, without posing, without pretending anything, just letting it be. And I especially loved the result.
    This has been one of the most beautiful gifts I have given myself and you have been the artist who managed to give me that: my love and happiness written in images. Thank you infinite. I already told you and I repeat it: you are my favorite photographer from now on. Thank you, thank you, thank you”

    “From the moment Jen and I started communicating, I knew I would feel more than comfortable working with her for our maternity shoot.

    Once we met in person, it was her calm, encouraging and complimentary nature that made us feel completely at ease. Our daughter was very busy during the shoot and Jen managed to capture the most true representative of love and hide the mayhem that actually took place.

    Not only did she guide us with everything from a clear wardrobe pallet, to a shot inspiration, she had a planned shot list and rolled with it to accommodate our needs throughout the shoot. Her communication was amazing before, during and after. We would highly recommend Jen! Thank you so much for everything.”

    “I’m so happy with our maternity photos, we will cherish these moments for a very long time. The most important thing for us was feeling comfortable during the shoot, and I can confidently say we had such a great time with Jen! She is highly professional but also very friendly and was able to offer a personalized session. She was prepared and had researched nice spots and ideas for poses so she could gently direct us during the shoot (which we needed!). She totally captured our personalities and our anticipation and the pictures came out lovely. I am already thinking about my next photoshoot with her. Thanks Jen!”

    “Jen was able to exceed our expectations by professionally immortalizing an important stage in our lives. She was always attentive to our fears, requests, expectations and so on. Always available to us, she took the time to put us at ease while maximizing the photo session!! I highly recommend to everyone!!”
