For her birthday, her husband enrolled her into a photography class at Macomb Community College, and from there the learning, practicing and improving has never stopped. Angela's passion in photography persisted and she bought her first 'big girl camera'. During it all, Angela always had a trusty camera with her. Jen has been happily married to her wonderful husband Denny for 20 years, and she is the proud mother of five beautiful children named Kim (15), Shelby (16), Peyton (18), Dylan (19) and Ethan (22), and foster mother to many.Īngela Bilen is a sensitive soul with a drive to keep people smiling while capturing moments that last a life time.Īfter Angela graduated from law school and passed the Michigan State Bar in 2004, she began a life as an attorney and soon after, a mother. Above all, she enjoys spending quality time with her loved ones who inspire her to be her best each day. When she isn’t capturing beauty through a camera lens, Jen Dera serves as the President of the L'Anse Creuse High School Marching Band, which consists of over 200 students. For seven years, she has made it a point to offer photo services that say no to stress, delayed appointment times, and low-tier customer service. Experiencing headache-inducing “big box” photography studios first-hand, she quickly realized that she could do so much better. Ultimately, Jen’s mission is to provide a pleasant, hassle-free experience for each and every customer who walks through those studio doors. (High School Senior sessions are her personal favorite.) As the photography studio’s Co-founder, she currently specializes in Children/Newborn, Families, and Seniors. At that moment, Capture a Moment Photography, LLC was born.
