About
I am a natural light, on-location documentary-style photographer. I have a photojournalism/storytelling approach. I specialize in newborns, children, and family. I also take several natural light headshots every month--perfect for updating your social media accounts, such as LinkdIn, Twitter, Facebook, and your work profile. While I don't have a studio, I do use a fabulous central Madison location for professional & polished natural light images. "She immediately made me feel very comfortable and I am generally very uneasy around cameras. She also explained how certain lighting and backdrops would affect the photos so we could make informed decisions about the photos. 10/10 would recommend Jen to friends and colleagues!" --Mei, headshot client "Working with Jen Lucas feels as natural as the finished pieces of art she produces. The anxiety-producing, staged "say cheese!" parts of family photo sessions are gone, thank goodness. She literally followed our family around with a camera and her talented eye, and amazed me when we sat down together to go through what she created from that walk of ours that summer evening. I highly recommend using Jen if you want beautiful results to capture the moments you wouldn't think to capture. As Jen puts it, beautifully ordinary moments. "-Allison

Jen delivered stellar, professional head shots for my Life Coaching business, BeYoutiful Transformations. She was supportive and thorough even before the session began, giving tips and ideas for the best makeup and clothing to match my site. She was very clear on what to expect, where to meet, and what shots we would be taking. As a business owner, I found this refreshing to work with someone so up front and detailed. To make it all an even more amazing experience, her personality is just as stellar as her work. She has a bright, vibrant, yet professional demeanor that puts you at ease. Makes it a much easier process when you can crack a few jokes and laugh as you are getting your photo taken! Her insight and direction for the photos were spot on and helped my website shine!

In an hour on one peaceful morning, Jen Lucas gave a priceless gift to our family. For years, we looked for the kind of professional photographer who could really focus her lens on the inside of our daughter's spirit, capturing more than just a smile or eyes on the camera portrait. Our child was immediately drawn to Jen, who is is patient, versatile and not only willing but wanting to collaborate with her young subject. By the time the session was over, my child wanted to be a photographer! Waiting to see those proofs felt like the days before Christmas. Jen produced them with great timeliness and they left us absolutely speechless. Not only is Jen a personable professional in a session setting, she is a serious artist. Our family collects photographic art and Jen's work ranks right up there with the greats. We're eager to book another session with her.

The final products speak for themselves. Beautiful, natural light images that captured my family beautifully. Instead of a stressful photo shoot, it was a lovely walk around the neighborhood, with Jen clicking away from all sides. I absolutely recommend using Jen Lucas Photography.

FAQs

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    On location, natural light photographer... We can meet in the city for an urban setting--think bricks, city streets, Madison's genuine busyness all around us, or in a natural setting surrounded by grasses, fields, lakes, trees. My all time favorite session is in your home. It's your authentic space. Nothing better! Your session reflects who you are!

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Look at your photographer's portfolio--is it up-to-date? Have they recently blogged their work? Does it capture emotion in a way that you'd like to be documented? Does their style mesh with yours? Do you view their work as art?
