BRINK STUDIO

MEET THE TEAM

Brink Studio exists to help people see the value in themselves and the people they love, and then give that feeling a permanent place in their homes.

We believe photography should do more than document what someone looks like. It should remind you of who they are, what they mean to you, and why this season of your life matters.

We create portraits meant to be lived with, artwork that becomes part of your home and part of your family's story. We collaborate with you to create the images and finished projects of your dreams!

LEAD PHOTOGRAPHER

Hi, I'm Jeni.

I'm a portrait photographer, artist, and unapologetic believer that the people we love deserve more than a place in our phone camera roll.

I've built my career creating portraits of people, not just as they look, but as they deserve to be seen. I love big ideas, beautiful light, unexpected locations, and creating something that feels a little impossible.

My approach is intentional from beginning to end. I’ll help you dream up the idea, figure out the details, and create portraits that feel distinctly like you.

I take the work seriously. Myself, considerably less so. I love beautiful things, ridiculous ideas, good coffee, and I’ve learned that some of my best work starts with four words: “I have an idea.”

CONTENT CREATOR

ANNIE

is a professional photographer and passionate storyteller who has always believed the best images are the ones that make you pause and feel something. As Content Creator for Brink Photography, she brings a creative eye, a love for people, and a knack for finding the story behind the moment.

When she’s not creating, Annie loves spending time with her family and grandkids, getting outside, and finding a little adventure wherever she can. She’s happiest with a camera in her hand, surrounded by the people and places that inspire her.

STUDIO MASCOT

LolaB

Lola is Brink Studio’s resident Pomapoo, tiny diva, and self-appointed Director of Everything.

She enjoys being admired, looking expensive, and maintaining an impressive level of confidence for someone with absolutely no discernible job skills.

Her hobbies include judging people silently, expecting special treatment, and behaving as though Brink Studio exists primarily to support her lifestyle.

She contributes very little, demands quite a lot, and remains completely convinced she’s the most important member of the team.

Honestly, we don’t have the heart to tell her otherwise.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF BOB

None of what you see here would exist quite as it does without my husband, Bob.

Bob was my biggest cheerleader, my partner, and the person who somehow made even my wildest ideas feel possible. When I dreamed something up, his response was never that it was too much, too difficult, or too crazy. He simply figured out how to make it happen.

He hung chandeliers where chandeliers probably had no business being. He built walls, constructed sets, hung indoor swings, and even built me a grand piano just so I could put it in a river for a photograph. No idea was ever too big or too far out of reach. If I could imagine it, Bob would find a way to help me bring it to life.

He helped me build more than a studio. He helped me build the life and creative world I had dreamed about, and he believed in me long before many of those dreams became real.

Bob also brought that same dedication to every frame he built. He cared deeply about craftsmanship and believed that the photographs we create deserve to be finished with the same level of quality and care that went into creating them. He was particular about the details, proud of his work, and unwilling to compromise on what left our studio.

As we carry on the framing work he began, his standard will remain our standard. Every piece will continue to be created with the quality, craftsmanship, and care Bob insisted upon.

Although Bob is no longer here beside me building the next crazy thing I dream up, his hands, his heart, and his belief in me are woven into this studio.

So I move forward photographing, dreaming, building, framing, and creating, knowing that he will always be part of everything I bring to life.

This studio was one of our dreams. I have the privilege of carrying it forward for both of us.

In loving memory of my husband. Bye for now, Bob.
