About Jen Solyanik
Jen is a Seattle-based photographer with an engineering habit. She has been hitting the shutter button for roughly 256 years, with half of those photos being of exotic pigeons from around the world.
Jen is primarily known for winning the 2017 Olympic Gold in obsessive over-committing when she picked up bread making, Jazz singing, improv, Kizomba, and competitive croissant eating, on top of her usual load of learning a sixth language (français, bien sûr), designing the interiors of her friends’ apartments, weightlifting, reading Vonnegut, and loudly extolling the virtues of C++ over C# to anyone who will listen (she’s also discovered a linear relationship between the latter and the size of her dwindling friend group… expect a Nobel Prize in Economics shortly). In her free time, she snapchats, collects books she will never read, adores run-on sentences, and dreams of owning a Siberian cat.
Her subjects’ favorite object is typically her 40″ light reflector, which shields them from her bad jokes. The most common reviews she receives are “I can’t smile anymore,” and “Are we done yet?”
When Jen grows up, she wants to be a cosmonaut.
