Jennie Collins
I was born and raised in Upstate State New York near Lake Ontario and the Canadian border with the Adirondack Mountains all around me.

I moved to Arizona and fell in love with the new and strange country side including cacti and the surrounding mountain ranges. My love for hiking has enhanced my photographic options.
I ran into a new life-long friend a few years ago, which turned into my photography mentor. I learned everything about photography including aperture, shutter speed, film speed, lighting, and picture editing.

A friend keeps asking what draws me to photography. I can only answer that I love capturing “pretty pictures” including monsoon storms, landscapes, flowers, buildings and people.

My current works have been event photography and small model photo shoots. You can catch me with my camera during the “First Thursday Art Walk” at Main Gate Square or hiking at Sabino Canyon.

I am looking to expand my photography into bigger events to include weddings and small intimate settings such as one-on-one personal images or maternity photography.
