Today on the show, we have the wonderfully talented Jennifer Moher - a Toronto-based wedding photographer and educator. Jennifer’s elegant and enduring style reminds us that photography is about more than just aesthetics – it’s about noticing and building relationships. 
If you ever feel like you’ve struggled to keep up with the comings and goings of trends or feel frustrated that you spend hours mastering one style only to realise that trend has come and gone, this is an episode for you. Together, Jennifer and I take you on a deep dive into the art of creating timeless images in a trend-obsessed world. We talk about how to capture moments that transcend trends so you can create images that resonate for years to come – and why getting intentional about what you consume helps you create more impactful imagery for your clients. After transitioning into education over 10 years ago, Jennifer’s spent a lot of time learning how to translate the ineffable into the practical. Now she’s able to take something that’s really hard to explain and articulate the exact actionable steps to bring you deeper into your power as an artist. She does just that in this episode.
