Our Esteemed Ensemble

Jenae Escobar - Founder & Lead Photographer

Jenae has been capturing moments around the world with a discerning eye and painterly warmth since 2016. A seasoned professional and Getty Images contributor, her work has graced campaigns for the likes of Domino’s Pizza, American Express, Citibank, and more. As the founder of Peppercorns Studio, she brings warmth, wit, and a touch of whimsy to every portrait.

Jenae is also a proud autistic entrepreneur and is deeply grateful for the families, clients, and communities who champion and support neurodivergent creatives. Their trust makes it possible for unique perspectives to shine and she considers it a privilege to share her work with them.

Rudy Escobar - Production Assistant

Peppercorns Studio’s behind-the-scenes (and occasionally the lens) hero. He is not only a fantastic husband, dad, and dog dad, but also deals with the lighting equipment, keeps sessions running smoothly, and is an invaluable set of additional eyes to make sure every detail looks right.

Mr. Peppercorns - Director of Unscheduled Zoomies

The muse, the mascot, and the namesake of Peppercorns Studios - Mr. Peppercorns himself. When he’s not inspecting camera bags for snacks, you’ll find him chewing on things not meant to be chewed on and creating general mayhem and chaos (between naps, of course). Because it’s his name at stake, Mr. Peppercorns demands only the highest quality images are produced. While he may not be present at photo sessions, be rest assured he personally sniffs every edit for enchantment before it leaves the studios.

He’s a good boy. Yes, such a very good boy. So handsome.
