Meet Jaclyn: Your Hilton Head Photographer
about us
jaclyn
Hey there! I'm Jaclyn, and my story behind the reason and love of photography is all due to my dad. Growing up, I had a front-row seat of being in front of my dads video camera and then camera. He was always by my family's side, camera in hand, taking in every precious detail that made our lives what we remember today. Those photos and videos are now all that I have left of my dad and it's what brings me so much joy getting to do it for others in a beautiful, timeless and joyful way.
Outside of my love of capturing and taking in these memories behind my camera I am a wife, mom of four, and believer. I love being outdoors by the water, fishing, paddle boarding and biking.
Photographing incredible families and couples is a dream, it's the simple joys of life, like sharing heartfelt conversations over coffee with my loved ones, that truly fill my cup. My heart always has room for a good laugh, especially the kind that's clever and unexpected.
Lastly, while my Asian roots might not be the first thing you notice (thanks to my dad's red hair and freckles, and my mom passing all her traits to my siblings), family is everything to me. It's the foundation of who I am. Standing behind my camera, capturing the unique story of your family, is an honor I cherish deeply.

I'm the fortunate husband of the incredible lady behind Jaclyn Armeni Photography. It's been a true privilege to dive headfirst into the world of capturing families and love stories. Witnessing the unique journeys of each couple and family that we work with fills me with immeasurable joy. Whether it's reminiscing about childhood moments in Hilton Head or capturing that unforgettable instant when they found "the one," my goal is to authentically convey the emotions that make their stories truly extraordinary.
As a husband and father, I'm in constant awe of our four beautiful children. There are moments when I'm torn between embracing the delightful chaos our trio brings or adding more little ones to the mix. In my downtime, I'm a sports enthusiast, especially when it comes to Georgia football. I have a love hate relationship teaming up with my wife for home DIY projects. it is a source of pain, laughter and accomplishment – even if we tend to finish them at about 90% before she finds something else that she wants to redo.
I'm also a dedicated Office quoter and always ready with a clever "Would you rather?" question to stir up some lively debates.
Being on this creative journey alongside my amazing wife is an absolute blessing, and I'm genuinely excited to be invited into your family and world. Like Jaclyn mentioned above, this is more than just taking photos for us - it's creating memories and capturing them for your family to hold onto for a lifetime.
