Personal Life

Jenna Kutcher was born on April 8, 1988, in a small town in Minnesota, where she was raised by her supportive parents. She is married to Drew Kutcher, a health and wellness expert, with whom she shares a passion for living life to the fullest, according to her website. Together, they have two children and reside in Minnesota.[2][3] 

Kutcher’s love of photographing weddings and creating blog posts began when she shot a family member’s destination wedding in Jamaica. They asked her to bring her camera and take some extra photos, but she took the job very seriously and realized she was good at making creative content.[3] 

Kutcher says that becoming an “overnight success” took her ten years of hard work. She launched her blog called Northwoods Wedding and photographed her first wedding in 2011. Within a year, she photographed 25 weddings and quit her nine-to-five job. By 2014, she hit six-figures and won “Wisconsin Bride Best of Weddings” for the first time. In the next five years she created online courses, began hosting workshops, became an Aerie Real Role Model, created a podcast that now has over 600 episodes, and gained one million Instagram followers.[4]

On her website, she writes, “Want to know what lights me up? Helping women harness the power to take control of their lives. Busting the myth of balance. Showing the dreamer that starting a business is closer than they think.”[1] 

Today, she runs a company with a team of nine women, which includes a website and blog, a podcast, a book, and speaking engagements.[5]
