hey! i’m jen mcken, let’s be friends!

This is the section of the web-page where I’m supposed to brag about how many awards I’ve won, what I’m involved with and blah blah blah. I’m going to keep it real. I’m not going to put myself on a pedestal and use third party comments about myself  OR create my own celebrity status by mentioning who I have worked with or how many awards I’ve won—I just LOVE what I do.  If you are ready to think outside the box, laugh and have fun –give me a call, I’d love to hear your story.

Just a few random facts about me:

I grew up in Blairsville, PA…but I’ve traveled all over the world.

I say the most random things, but I’m the most organized person you’ll meet.

I feel like an old soul, but I’m truly a kid at heart.

My best ideas come when I’m driving and can’t write them down.

I hate spiders but I laugh in the face of danger.

When I grow up, I want to be happy.

I’m not shy, but I blush when receiving compliments.

I laugh entirely too much and cry entirely too easy.

I believe smiling is the universal language.

I believe in the power of positive thinking.

I love crazy, funky, irregular patterns but I organize my sock drawer.

I believe in the small world theory- everyone is connected by 7 people.

I’m a great listener but I can talk your ear off about nonsense.

I believe that if chocolate or duct tape can’t fix it, then it’s not fixable.

I’d rather carry a million grocery bags in two hands than make a second trip to the car…tee he he!!

I’m silly, I’m serious, I’m fun, I’m boring, I’m REAL……I’m Jen McKen

My Philosophy

Let me make a point right off the bat, I’m not out to create the “flawless portrait” because…….. come’on no one is and life certainly isn’t!  You know that look that your loved one gives you in between the smile but right before they laugh —THAT’s what I live for-those in-between moments, the real moments…..the moments that are simply YOU!  My work has been described as spontaneous and real-I’d like to think it’s a bit quirky mixed in with a little bit of emotion and a splash of fun!
