Welcome!

PEOPLE + Pet Photographer | Jacksonville, FL

The real moments. The messy moments. The moments you’ll never want to forget — without the luxury price tag.

Hi, I’m Penny Souza— a wedding and pet photographer based in Jacksonville, Florida, and I’m all about capturing the kind of moments that actually feel like you.

The happy tears. The belly laughs. The wildly excited dogs. The stolen glances. The perfectly imperfect moments that happen when nobody’s worried about the camera.

Whether I’m photographing your wedding day or documenting the personality of your four-legged best friend, I want your photos to feel natural, honest, and full of life — not stiff, overly posed, or like everyone else’s.

I believe you shouldn’t have to spend a fortune to have beautiful, meaningful photographs. My goal is to offer affordable, approachable photography while still giving you images you’ll be excited to hang on your walls, share with your family, and look back on for years to come.

Based in Jacksonville, FL, I serve couples, families, and pet lovers throughout Northeast Florida, including St. Augustine, St. Johns, Ponte Vedra Beach, Fernandina Beach, Amelia Island, Orange Park, Fleming Island, Yulee, Jacksonville Beach, Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach, and surrounding areas.

Come as you are, bring your people (and your pets), and let’s create beautiful memories without breaking the bank.

Thank you for visiting Penny Souza Photography – I am elated that you are here! I am dedicated to capturing the memories so you may cherish them forever.

"Penny was amazing! We were so lucky to have her as part of our wedding. Not only was she professional and accommodating, her photography skills are exceptional. There is nothing bad that I could say about Penny whatsoever. I am going to recommend her to all of our friends who are getting married over the next several years and she really is the best in the area."

"We couldn’t imagine anyone else shooting our wedding day! Penny is one of the most thoughtful photographers you will ever meet. What do I mean by that? She’s unassuming, and instead of staging every photo, she’s an expert in catching everybody at their finest moments without them even realizing it…"

"Penny exceeded our expectations. She helped the day run smoothly, and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera! She posted a “sneak peek” the night OF the wedding, and had all of our photos back to us within two weeks!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to capture our day!"

Don't change yourself so that other people will like you. Be yourself so that the right person will love you.

My focus is on capturing candid, authentic moments that you’ll be able to cherish forever.
I am a Photographer, which makes me an authentic Storyteller. I must capture the moments that authentically happen throughout the many moving parts of your day. Anticipating those timeless moments is what I am passionate about.
