Invest In Your Story
Hi, I’m Janine Creative Director behind
The Tied Vows.
I’m a story-driven photographer and filmmaker capturing weddings, couples, families, and meaningful life events with authenticity, emotion, and heart.
My mission is to create imagery that goes deeper than the average surface level photos and films, I aim to preserve real connection, genuine emotion, and honest moments as they naturally unfold.
Whether I’m documenting a wedding day, a growing family, an intimate couple’s session, or a milestone event, my focus remains the same: telling your story in a way that feels true to you.
You are real. Your story is real. The emotions within each moment are real.
I value your moments deeply and approach every gallery as a reflection of the people in front of my lens genuinely enjoying meaningful memories that you’ll return too for years to come.
