About Janet Vennare Photography

Hey, I’m Janet and I want to be there for every moment that makes your life magical.

I started taking photos just for fun. It was never about the perfect shot or the best camera—just a deep down need to remember things exactly as they were. A habit that started at 13: I always had a camera in my hand, chasing little moments that felt too beautiful to let slip away. At first, I didn’t really know what I was looking for—I just knew I never wanted to miss it.

You're welcome here - just as you are

Now, I want to give that gift to you. Think of me as a friend who shows up with a coffee in one hand and a camera in the other. The one who laughs with you during the wild extraordinary moments or quietly stands beside you when it’s time to just feel.

I’ll be the one who catches that one perfect shot you didn’t even know you needed. The shot you’ll treasure forever - and yes, I’ll make sure it’s printed, framed, and in your hands before you’ve even had time to realize what “it” was for you.

Back then, “it” was just a feeling. As I grew and life unfolded, I started to realize something important: these weren’t just photos. These were pieces of time. Honest, emotional, and irreplaceable moments.

You know that feeling when you reach for your phone too late and think, “Ugh, I wish I had a camera for that”? That’s exactly why I do what I do. I never want those moments to slip away unnoticed for me or for you. For the past 15 years, I’ve poured my heart into learning how to spot it. How to truly see the magic in the ordinary and the extraordinary and capture it before it’s gone.

And honestly? I absolutely love my job.

Let's make sure you never miss it again,
i'm ready when you are!

It's your wedding day. Your baby's first giggle. The way your partner looks at you when you’re not looking. It’s your senior about to take on the world, or your toddler taking their first brave step. It’s a surprise engagement, a quiet maternity session, a party full of laughter, or a moment that deserves to be paused in time. It’s the photo in your car that reminds you how far you’ve come. It’s the album that transports you right back to the best day of your life.

So, what is "it"?
