not your typical engagement photo

But, I like this one.

It was one of the last photos i captured with this couple, and after spending the morning with them, I thought that this pose fit their personality. It's a little "vougue-ish" but it was fun. I loved shooting this couple, as they had great personalities, but they also were both very photogenic.

as always, if you click on the image then you can see others from the same set.

I love shooting this little girl. It's the second time i've gotten to photograph her, and she is so much fun, and so photogenic. She was at 6 months old for this shoot, and that is about the last age that i like to do "naked" baby photos, they just aren't real cute after that. We did a lot of stunning photos, but I like this one because it is a dramatic photo.

She actually hated taking this photo and was crying the whole time, but as soon as we turned her around and she could see us again, she was happy. I like the shot though, and it wi be cherished for a long time.

you get out of a shoot, what you put into it.

lullaby, originally uploaded by Photography by Jacklyn.

This is an image from a newborn shoot I did. It is by far, not the most stunning image (photography wise) in the set, but it is the most heart touching. This is the image of this sweet baby boy with his dad's guitar. The lyrics, are the lyrics that his dad wrote for him. His lullaby.

This is the image that will be cherished, as you get a real view of just how small this sweet baby is, and you get these lyrics that came straight from dad's heart.

It's emotional.

sometimes (often) you get a 2 year old that doesn't want to sit still and be photographed. This image is from one of those sessions. It is my favorite image of her from the session.

She is such a cute child. She wanted to run around, and play, and have fun. She was very curious and a joy to be with. I managed to catch her being still for a split second, and this shot is the result. If you click on the image, it will take you to flickr where you can see the rest. (the one shown here, does not show all of the image)

I love getting to do what I do.

Here's the story of a lovely lady.....

This is a precious family that I was fortunate to get to photograph! They had such great personalities. I took lots of pictures, including group pictures, but I like this composite that I created for them. To me, it's just "fun" so i thought i would share it with you. They really were a great bunch to work with.

I am thankful to God for blessing me with such a talent so I can meet such wonderful people, and capture great moments for them.

Sisters...

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.
