I’m Pamela Jahnke, founder and lead photographer at Pamela Jahnke Photography. With a deep appreciation for the fleeting nature of life’s most meaningful moments, I believe every wedding is a story waiting to be told—one that deserves to be preserved with authenticity, warmth, and timeless elegance.
Often described as an old soul, I find immense joy in connecting with my clients and uncovering the nuances of their love story. With 17 years of marriage and two teenagers of my own, I understand firsthand how these moments become cherished heirlooms, passed down for generations. Being a wife and mother has shaped my perspective and deepened my appreciation for the power of photography—not just to document, but to preserve emotion, connection, and legacy.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll likely find me exploring new places—trekking through the Swiss Alps, sailing along the Amalfi Coast, or simply enjoying a quiet morning at home with my golden retriever puppy. I also have a deep love for the simple pleasures in life: dark chocolate, a good glass of wine, and getting lost in a true crime novel or documentary.
I’m honored that you’re considering me to document your wedding day. It’s a privilege I don’t take lightly, and I look forward to capturing your love story in a way that is as genuine and timeless as the moments themselves.
Before becoming a photographer, I spent years as a teacher, a role that refined my ability to communicate, adapt, and connect with people from all walks of life. Just as every student had their own way of learning, I believe every couple deserves an approach tailored to them—one that reflects their relationship in a way that feels both natural and deeply personal. Whether capturing a quiet, candid exchange or a beautifully composed portrait, my goal is always the same: to create images that feel true to who you are.
you'll hear from me shortly.
