Welcome

I’m Jen, the founder and lead photographer of Vow House, a Seattle-based wedding photography studio dedicated to capturing love stories with an editorial, artful, and cinematic approach. With over a decade of experience behind the camera, I have built a body of work that blends moody, timeless imagery with authentic storytelling, tailored to each couple’s vision.

My background includes both editorial photography and documentary-style wedding coverage, allowing me to create images that are not only emotionally resonant but also refined enough to stand beside fashion and lifestyle work. I specialize in working with both digital and vintage film cameras, giving my couples a gallery that feels tactile, layered, and enduring.

Over the years, I’ve documented weddings and engagements across the Pacific Northwest and beyond, from intimate elopements in the Cascades to rooftop celebrations in downtown Seattle and destination events abroad. My work is deeply influenced by atmosphere and environment—rainy Seattle streets, mountain backdrops, candlelit interiors—and I thrive on translating these settings into images that feel both grand and intimate.

What sets my work apart is my focus on the in-between moments—the candid glances, quiet touches, and unplanned laughter—that define a wedding day as much as the big moments do. Clients often describe my presence as calm, intuitive, and guiding without intrusion, which allows me to balance natural candids with editorial portraiture.

Through Vow House, I am committed to creating imagery that not only documents but also elevates weddings into visual heirlooms. Every frame is crafted to feel timeless yet contemporary, moody yet luminous, cinematic yet deeply personal.

  • We are so grateful to have had Vow House capture our wedding day! The photos are stunning, natural and highlight the best and emotional parts of our big day. Jennifer Thomas made us feel completely at ease and captured every moment perfectly. She is professional, kind and incredibly talented. Highly recommend!

  • Holy cow! Jen is the best! We booked her for our wedding and I can't say enough good things about our experience. Her pictures are stunning, romantic and real. She captured us and our day beautifully and authentically. I'm amazed at how many special moments she got. She went above and beyond in every way. Throughout the entire process, she was reliable, communicative, helpful and kind. Beyond the gorgeous photos, she was extremely helpful in guiding us through planning. Her knowledge is invaluable. The day of, she was the best hype woman and supporter. I cannot recommend her enough! Not only is she uber talented, she is an absolute joy to work with.

  • Our pre wedding meetings and engagement photo session really helped us get to know Jen, and she was so easy and friendly to work with. She got all of the photos we wanted with our large and disorganized family, worked well with our venue to keep the day flowing smoothly, and had such beautiful vision/direction for the photos. We trusted her vision completely and are so glad we stepped out for our sunset wedding shots with her! All in all an incredibly professional and exceptionally talented photographer.
