OUR MISSION
We promise to make every photograph like it's the one we will be remembered for. Our goal is to document the moment that will outlive us all.
Jen and Travis said ""I do"" back in 2009, and all these years later, they still banter about who has to do the dishes and who gets stuck in the middle seat on the airplane. But they're still each other's favorite person, and that counts for a lot.
They met at the Rochester Institute of Technology, but they joke that they really fell in love over the dishline at Gracie's, where they worked together in college, because nothing says romance quite like a mountain of dirty plates and a shared sense of humor about it.
They are also, very proudly, dog parents, and their dogs have their whole hearts (but that's a story for a little later).
At the end of the day, Jen and Travis just choose each other, and adventure, and love, and laughing through all of it, whether that's at 14,000 feet on a mountain or somewhere in the middle seat of an airplane arguing about whose turn it is to sit there. That's kind of their whole thing, and honestly, it's a pretty great thing.
Team Stitt
Jen was born and raised in Maine, then headed to RIT, where she met the love of her life, Travis. She's obsessed with the Barenaked Ladies (it's a 90's band, guys) and could probably live off coffee and coffee alone. Her biggest dream is to compete on Survivor, but she's far more qualified to be a Disney World tour guide, since she can tell you the difference between a Magic Kingdom Dole Whip and a Polynesian Dole Whip (and she may or may not believe she's a Disney Princess). All kidding aside, she has a background in newspaper photojournalism and film production and has dedicated her life to constantly learning and improving her craft. In 2019 she earned the title of Associate Photographer of WPPI/Icon, and in 2023 she was named Reportage Photographer of the Year by the Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers in London. Fueled by coffee (and the occasional great cocktail).

Travis has been described as a renaissance man with a love for all things nerdy and artistic. Raised outside of Philadelphia, he fell hard for all things musical (he's the reason Jen now knows every word to more than a few Broadway soundtracks) before heading to RIT, where he met Jen, his person, his photographer, and the one who can absolutely hold her own at quizzo... as long as the categories are Broadway or Disney. Travis, on the other hand, is just flat-out the best trivia partner, full stop. He loves how photography captures a single moment in time while holding a lifetime of memories, and he's always chasing that perfect balance of technique and art, which is a fancy way of saying he totally geeks out over good light. After all these years, he still never gets tired of watching images come to life as they're printed on canvas and paper.

History of Fox & Brazen
Fox & Brazen is the company we have strived to create since we took the plunge into creative wedding photography in 2011. Our humble beginnings started as a Philadelphia-based company called 'Uncorked Studios' and our style, service, and photography has matured into our current studio.
Fox comes from our sleek, flirtatious style of imagery. We also enjoy the parallels between marriage and how a pair of foxes choose to be partners for life. We also draw inspiration from the fact that the arctic fox is the only native mammal to survive the chilly atmosphere of Iceland!
Brazen comes from our unabashedly bold personalities and love of color and contrast in our imagery. We feel that choosing love and a partner for life is one of the boldest choices you can make in a lifetime.
The best marriages are when two people bring their best traits together for success - and that's what we believe Fox & Brazen is - the best of both worlds!
WE LOVE YOUR DOG TOO →
Meet Doc and Marty (yes, like Back to the Future. Great Scott!). Born and raised until the age of eight weeks in Rochester, New York, this dynamic duo can only be described as a handful and then some. Half beagle and half pug, Doc and Marty want to be the first ones to greet you when you arrive at the studio, and they have nearly 1.21 gigawatts of love to share when you meet them. They have their own Instagram account but leave the photo taking to the professionals. They'd love to help edit photos and answer emails, but it's hard to type when you don't have thumbs! Their favorite hobby is protecting the studio from squirrels and the UPS driver, but you'll most likely find them lounging quietly, watching TV whenever Back to the Future is on the boob tube.
And then there's Gus. He's a puggle too, and technically Travis' "brother," but we've adopted him long term. His name is a secret Disney reference (little Gus Gus!). He was almost named Ollie, but that rhymed a little too well with his original owner, Mollie. Gus is 26 pounds of pure snuggle who harasses Marty endlessly (Doc just tolerates him), and he'd much rather be playing ball or digging under fences than lounging in the sunshine.
STUDIO MASCOTS // OFFICIAL GREETERS
01/06
Arms up, one light on a stand, and a pup who stayed put just long enough for the cuddle pile.
02/06
Crouched on the wet jetty rocks at sunset, so the couple gets the whole ocean and all of that glow.
03/06
Down in the tall grass and shooting right through it. That’s where the dreamy golden blur comes from.
04/06
Way back. Really far back. That tiny veil toss is the couple, and the whole island gets to be part of their story.
05/06
Down on one knee so the azaleas wrap around her in purple on both sides.
06/06
We came for the couple. The pup in the LUV TOO bandana had other plans.
The Shot
The Scene
Want to see what we're up to behind the camera? Follow Jen on Instagram @uncorkedjen
We truly believe a great photo is created with whatever camera you have in your hands - but if you need to know, we're avid Canon photographers. We pride ourselves on being seekers of light whether it's finding the light or creating it and making use of every style of lighting we can use to capture an image. We finish our images in Lightroom with a flair of Photoshop if needed.
There aren't too many secrets we keep about the creation of our images. We generally like to find some kick-ass lighting, insert our subject and inject some emotion into the scene. Tada - that's our secret photography formula.
behind the scenes
Always up for it: No shipwreck he won't dive, no mountain he won't climb, no experience he won't try once.
Game night: Fluent in movie quotes, addicted to Jeopardy, never turns down a board game or a round of cards. Absolutely terrible at Uno.
Backup plan: If iPhones take over photography, he's a Disney World tour guide who knows how to 'drink around the world.' Jen's coming too.
Trivia master
Travis
Happy place: Hawaii is the favorite, but Disney World with a tiki drink at Trader Sam's usually wins.
14,000 feet: They hiked the Devil's Playground route to the summit of Pikes Peak. Yes, it's as wild as it sounds.
Stick shift: They both drive it. Basically the best anti-theft device ever invented.
Credit where due: Jen got Travis into photography. Travis gets Broadway, great cocktails, Pennsylvania… and he proposed. He wins that one.
teamwork makes the dream work
Together
Game show ready: 'Cheers', 'Frasier' and 'The Good Place' trivia? She'd clean up.
Fearless(ish): She's jumped out of a plane and swum with 27 sharks, but Wegmans on a Saturday is scarier.
Weird Collection: 30 flocked Christmas trees. They're for the photo sessions. Totally. Definitely.
Halloween goal: Evil Elsa. One year. It's happening.

Marriage is just the beginning of the story. But you gotta start somewhere!
