Sisters...

image-9, originally uploaded by Photography by Jacklyn.

This is not the most outstanding image from the series, but it is the one that captures the relationship between sisters the best. These sisters are 1 and 3 years old. In this photo the 3 year old is giving the 1 year old a wet willie. We've all had them. (or given them) She did this multiple times, and it was really cute. Though the 1 year old didn't think so.

Capturing Emotion in my images is very important to me. Anyone can "take a picture" but to photograph something that will be cherished, you must have some of the person in the picture. You have to adequately capture the relationships between people, the emotions that are expressed. I want you to feel a connection with the subjects of my photographs when you see my images. I think that is captured well in this photograph.

first diva shoot.

This is a picture from the first round of Diaper Diva shoots! This little girl was so much fun. She is at the age where seperation anxiety is an issue, and didn't really want to let go of mom. I got a lot of really cute pictures of her crying. I love pictures of crying babies. This picture however, i thought was really cute. Something about the personality in the way she is sitting struck me.

I like, and strive to, capture a little personality in each of my sessions. The crying ones were cute, but this one I chose to share with you!!!

wedding and vow renewal

This is not my favorite picture from the ceremony, but it's one of them. Click on it to see a few of the others.

I was blessed to have gotten to photograph a wedding and a vow renewal last weekend. It was a wonderful experience, even though it was HOT outside!!! I took lots of pictures, and had fun. My 11 year old daughter was my assistant for the day. She carried my flash stand and pointed it for me, it allowed me to get some very interesting shots like this one. she is actually standing in a chair, holding the flash directly over the cake, pointed down at it to light it from above. I love the shadows that it creates, and the result was very pleasing to me.

I love this picture. It shows how genuine a mother's love is!!

It is one picture from a family session I did. There was also dad and an older sister. They were so much fun to shoot! I hope this picture makes you smile just a little like it did me.

mothers day present

This session was purchased by the subjects sister in law as a mother's day present. I love when people purchase photographs for presents. You are giving a gift that will last a lifetime and be enjoyed by many.

This subject whether she knows it or not, was very photogenic. I took my time on the editing and played with textures and some other various additions to her images.

I really like this image, I think it is simple, yet has a little bit of an "edge" to it with the overlay on the left side.

I am truly blessed to get to do what I do and I enjoy it every day!

new light textures

Well, I've begun to play with textures a little. I added a "light texture" to this photo. I also have some other textures, but haven't gotten to play with them....yet.

This photo was one taken during a Palestine Photography Club workshop. Where we worked with various models and shared tips for shooting, posing, and working with different age groups.

I like the light overlay in this picture, but we'll see how the other textures work out.
