Jennifer (Jeni) Lynn Caudill is a Northern Kentucky–based creative designer and photographer working throughout the Greater Cincinnati area with over 10 years of hands-on experience. She is the founder of Fotojenink, a creative freelancing business specializing in visual design and photography that began as a side project and grew into so much more.
Jeni’s love for creativity started early. Raised in a family of hobbyists, she was surrounded by music, art, and photography. Her father played bass in a local band, and her mother often brought along a Canon AE-1 film camera to capture the moments. Jeni quickly began learning photography and soon became the band’s unofficial photographer, quickly transitioning from film to DSLR and staying within the Canon family.
During high school and her early college years, Jeni’s uncle introduced her to his photography studio, expanding her talents to include how to work with lighting and different types of sessions. There she began photographing senior portraits, maternity sessions, and engagement photos. She soon became a second shooter for many sessions, especially weddings, through his business, George Starr Photography.
While pursuing a degree in graphic design with a minor in marketing, Jeni began taking on her own photography sessions and eventually started booking weddings independently. During this time, Fotojenink was officially created.
Jeni continues developing her work in graphic design, marketing, and photography while completing her degree at Northern Kentucky University.
Facts about me, Jeni:
I’ve been happily married for nearly a decade, celebrating ten years this November. My family also includes our adopted pup, Porkchop, who turns three this August and happens to share a birthday week with me.
Fun fact: I’ve known my mother-in-law almost a decade longer than I’ve known my husband, a relationship I’m very grateful for.
After spending many years in a comfortable office role, I’ll be graduating with my bachelor’s degree this May, marking the close of a long and rewarding chapter and the beginning of a fully creative one.
I’ve been a professional photographer for multiple decades, with more weddings and meaningful moments captured than I can count. Building genuine connections and documenting real stories is at the heart of everything I do, and I look forward to getting to know you and creating something meaningful together.
