Hello & Welcome!
I'm Jen
My Business was built on the same
HEARTFELT PHILOSOPHY that I look for
in a photographer for my family.
HEARTFELT PHILOSOPHY that I look for
in a photographer for my family.
Welcome to Everlasting Memories Photography! I'm Jen Shoemaker, a passionate photographer based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, dedicated to capturing life's most cherished moments with authenticity and care.
Family at the Heart of My Work As a mother of two grown children—it's astonishing how time flies!—and a stepmom to my husband's three wonderful kids, our blended family of seven keeps life vibrant and full of milestones. We welcomed our first Grandchild into our family at the end of 2024 that has filled our life with even more joy! I deeply understand the importance of capturing each stage of life's journey. |
A Lifelong Journey Behind
the Lens Photography has been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my father was the family's go-to wedding photographer. Whenever he donned his brown leather jacket, we knew he meant business, while my mother orchestrated everyone to pose just right. As I got older, my dad would get a fire call and, as he ran out the door to the fire department, he'd shout, "Grab your camera... This could be a big one." Off I would go, following the fire trucks to the scene. From capturing candid shots of friends and school events to focusing my lens on my own children as a mother, photography has always been my way of preserving the fleeting, precious moments of life. Capturing Your Unique Story
I believe that everyone deserves exceptional photography services that don't break the bank. My mission is to provide high-quality, affordable photography that brings clients back time and again to document their special moments and milestones. No one should have to forgo capturing these memories due to budget constraints. Every photo session is a new adventure, and my joy lies in capturing your unique personality and the love you share with those around you. Let's create timeless images together that you'll cherish for years to come. I look forward to being a part of your story. Warmly, Jen |
