Wendy Jo has been a photographer since the age of 14. After a career as a teacher she made a change and worked as a Camera Assistant in the motion picture industry for 5 plus years. Returning to her first love of still photography, she went back to school to get her degree. Since then she has worked mostly on commercial shoots, everything from the Grand Ole Opry and Country Weekly to fashion shoots for W magazine. After a year of editorial travel photography, she made the decision to stay in one place for a while, and combine her love for animals with her love of photography. She received her Certified Professional Photographer designation in 2018.

About WJP

Wendy Jo Photo is a home-grown business located just north of Nashville, TN. Run by photographer and owner Wendy Jo O'Barr, Wendy Jo Photo strives to capture the personality of your pet, in studio or at your location. Her portraits are unique, and stand out in a sea of pets in the grass. Wendy Jo elevates the pet portrait to where it belongs. Those of us who know that our pets are simply part of the family also know that their images deserve a place on the wall alongside the family photo, and that the images we make of our fur babies now will last a lifetime.
