I’m JENÉ TURNER

What’s up!

An Atlanta native and member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated, I'm a passionate creative dedicated to authenticity and storytelling, focusing on expressing unique creativity through photography, design, and various visual projects.

Fun fact: Back In high school I created a “list of things I love” because I used to suck at those icebreakers on the first day of school—now it’s a source of endless inspiration for my work.

THE SUNSET: My greatest inspiration

THE INFLUENCE

The jagged rays capture the brilliance of the sun while representing my bold, expressive, and non-minimalistic artistic style. I embrace vibrant colors and dynamic edits, showcasing my passion for creativity without limits. The sunset, one of the first things I fell in love with, serves as a powerful reminder to stay true to myself and my artistic vision.

When I designed my logo I was inspired by my deep connection to sunsets, which I have always loved because it grounds and inspires me. The sunset colors, used as the shadow of the design, reflect the stunning array of tones found in nature—reminding me that the world itself is a work of art.
