Jane Flegel ♡

Born in Indonesia and raised in the Pacific Northwest, I've been surrounded by opportunities to document beautiful places my entire life. What started as a hobby while traveling back and forth between countries became an inherent part of my life. Documenting friends and life in school. You forget how important capturing these chapters of life is until you lose the people you once photographed. I never thought I'd have the privilege of documenting these milestones and special days in people's lives as a living, but this is not a job I take lightly. Your memories preserved in compelling compositions and the moments in between are as important to you as they are to me. A passion would be an understatement, but a dream sounds less tangible, and that wouldn't seem right considering each project is truly a dream come true.

Aside from photography, I'm also incredibly passionate about celebrations! I'm a "celebrate big" on everything kind of gal. Being a photographer with a love for people makes celebrating them with a camera an intrinsic part of the experience. My goal is to make you feel comfortable enough to be yourself and capture you and your loved ones as beautifully as you authentically are. Dynamic prompts and laughter create candid imagery. Real smiles are always more flattering than forced, and comfort is key around these parts! Celebrating people is absolutely my strong suit, I'll take any excuse to host someone's soiree!

In addition to celebrating big things... little things... and often times nothing at all, my heart takes the greatest pleasures in many things. I've always been an artist, if I'm not editing, you will absolutely catch me taking precious time to tediously place diamonds onto sticky paper (diamond art) or writing poetry in the sun on the deck in the backyard. My backyard is definitely in my top 5 favorite places. I love gardening and yearn for the day that my husband and I live on some larger land. I'm currently growing flowers and vegetables but a girl could do magic in a greenhouse! I've been joyously married to my sweet Maine-native, husband since 2023 and we have two tabby cats named Dale Carnegie and Dolly Parton.
