Captured Photography by Jenny

Sarah Harper - Amazing again Jenny! Thank you so much. I LOOOOVE the one of Ben in the tie and sunglasses but they are all beautiful.

Angela Herod - You are not alone. I struggle with this and I am sure that there are plenty of others that aren't willing to admit to it. You do great work and never doubt that.

sylvia - Jenny your work is Amazing!! I think everyone can relate to not feeling like your not doing well.... I used to be the same way and I would constantly put myself down about things because I didn't believe I was good enough! I have learned to not think like that anymore because it was only holding me back from things I wanted to accomplish in my life! I am a BIG people pleaser but I think that is just because I am the oldest of four kids and its just in my nature to make sure everyone else is happy before I think about myself. I have been changing my whole life and my attitude on things because by me being positive it not only makes me a happier person but I also make the ones I love happy as well. I also used to let any negative things people would say to me hurt me but I have learned from that as well... I don't block people out of my life instead I just distance myself because I learn that I can learn from the people who hurt me as well, whether its positive or negative feed back it makes me a much stronger person. My shyness doesn't help me but I am a open book because I want to help others like they have helped me! I am so blessed to have the life god has given me and I am beyond thankful for my fiance and family!! People believe in you, you just have to start believing in yourself! =D

lenyce - I know how you feel. I feel the same way a lot of the time. When customers come and don't find what they're looking for or the reactions on faces watching our shows isnt a big smile .... doubt sets in. I question myself. Actually after reading your comments I am feeling better! Thank you for that. A reminder of the amazing plan already set. Enjoy your beautiful family and your God given talents ....how can you go wrong?

Jen Schartner - Thanks girls for your comments! I appreciate your kind words and your vulnerability! It is awesome how God shows us that He is the only thing that can make us truly happy.

nicky b - It is so nice to see a fellow photographer sharing their struggles. You aren't alone. I actually was spending a ton of time pretty much doing what you described. Checking to see if anyone left comments, comparing myself to other photographers (including you, which you are amazing). Thanks for being open. And for sharing what you believe.

Kristie - Jenny - I love reading your blogs because you are so honest and transparent about your life and walk with God that it allows others to relate to you and say to themselves "I feel the same way" so thank you for sharing your heart! I absolutely adore your work (and I've already decided you're my wedding photographer, I just have to meet the guy first :0), so when you have a rough day remember there are so many people that respect your work that never take the time to tell you!

Inta G - JennY, you described my feelings...believe in yourself, you are creative Inta

Dara - Jenny - your work is AMAZING!! I fell in love and haven't been able to think about hiring another photographer. I agree with you that we all struggle with feeling like we need to grow and we are mediocre (I too have questioned my progress in my career several times) but I think you hit the nail on the head with your comment about God blessing you with your talents and the fact that He's equipped you with these talents. You're never alone, He's always with you, and your work definitely demonstrates it.

Dana - beautiful!! Lovely work Jenny.

ANN LAUNDRIE - what a beautiful girl-I love her dress would kill to ever get back in my wedding dress!!!
