Hi, I’m Jen

I’m a traveller and online content creator from England. Although I’m English I have actually lived more outside of England than in it. I grew up in a town near Amsterdam in The Netherlands where I attended International Schools so I’ve always been very influenced by other cultures and languages around me. Being in a class with students from over 30 different countries has that effect on you. Another big influence for me growing up was my amazing grandfather who traveled around the world, from Antarctica to Australia he was always off on an adventure or sailing his yacht to faraway lands. I used to sit on his knee and listen to his travel stories with my mouth open in amazement & he definitely sparked my love for all things travel from a very young age.

After travelling to Turkey for a Summer job in 2007, I met my now husband and moved to a seaside resort on the Aegean coast of Turkey. In 2011 I bought an iPhone 3GS, downloaded an app called Instagram and documented my travels around Turkey, editing & uploading them to Instagram.

These days pretty much everyone sells their presets on Instagram, but we were the very first people to do that in the form of an editing app. My Husband is an app developer so in 2012 he created Deluxe FX app for editing your travel photos on the go. We turned Instagram into a full time job then and started to work with hotels, brands and tourism boards around the world to showcase amazing destinations and countries.

My most asked Questions…

WHERE ARE YOU FROM?

I’m English! I was born in Essex, grew up in The Netherlands, moved to Turkey and now home is back in the beautiful countryside of West Sussex on the South Coast of England.

WHAT CAMERA DO YOU USE?

A Sony a74 and a Sony a7c for all of my photos and some of my videos. I also my iPhone 15 pro for 99% of my video content as thats the one I always have with me!

WHAT DO YOU EDIT YOUR PHOTOS WITH?

I use Lightroom and my own ‘izkiz’ app which is available on the Apple App Store. It has filters and overlays perfect for all your travel photos.

WHAT DOES IZKIZ MEAN?

When I started instagram in 2011 I wanted a short, catchy name. It’s random but ‘iz’ comes from the first 2 letters of the city in Turkey that I was living in & ‘Kiz’ meaning girl in Turkish.

There are beautiful Greek islands… and then there’ There are beautiful Greek islands… and then there’s Symi. 🇬🇷

The moment you arrive by ferry, you’re greeted by a harbour lined with colourful neoclassical houses climbing the hillsides, turquoise water that almost doesn’t look real, and the kind of atmosphere that makes you instantly slow down.

We love it here… wandering the tiny streets, finding hidden corners, eating fresh seafood by the water and watching the boats come and go. It may be one of the smallest Greek islands, but it leaves one of the biggest impressions.

Definitely one of my favourite places in Greece. 💙

Wandering through some of the city’s prettiest neighbourhoods, stopping for coffee and cake along the way, then ending the day with an incredible dinner at @lokallondon. (Ad pr) 🍽️

One of my favourite things about London is that no two days ever feel the same. There’s always a new street to explore, a hidden corner to stumble across, or another restaurant to add to your ever-growing list. It’s a city I never get tired of. 😍
