Ellen

[gallery columns="4" orderby="title"]

Oh this is adorable Ellen. She cried when she first saw me, and I got a little worried...but from the second I starting clicking away she posed like no baby I have ever seen. Her mommy says she is used to having her photo taken. OBVIOUSLY! These turned out great. Enjoy.

Pretty Piper

[gallery columns="4" orderby="title"]

This is sweet little Piper. She loved her monkey so much , she insisted he be in the family photo! Her mommy, Rebecca, said he was part of the family! Isn't Piper girly perfection, with her blonde curls, cherub cheeks and huge blue eyes? My favorite shot is her in her rocking chair - the chair was Rebecca's when she was a child. So sweet.

The Holdaway's Easter Mini Session

[gallery columns="4"]

Probably my all time favorite family photos. What is awesome about the Holdaways, is not only are they the nicest people ever, but they are up for anything. I was like, "Hey ya'll stand up on this big dead tree" (totally reminded me of that scene in Dirty Dancing) but anyway, they were all for it! Their daughter, Jordan, is so lovely. Obviously she never went thru any awkward teen years like I did when I had braces. And Evan is a complete cutie and such a sweet, kind brother. Of course when your parents look like movie stars, it's no surprise!

The Smith's Easter Mini Session

First up for Easter Mini's was Kim Smith and her beautiful family. Now, Kim and I are not related, but we go WAY back. Loved catching up with her! More to come Kim, this is just a very small preview! Enjoy![gallery columns="4"]

The Lively's

Meet Jack and Easton, two precious little boys with sweet, sweet parents. As soon as I walked in the door, Jack hugged me - and I knew it was going to be a  GREAT session...and it was. Jack completely rocked it. Honestly, I can't find a bad photo of him. And mid shoot, Dad asked him what he knew about Lane Kiffin and Jack responded, "He's a traitor!" See why I love this family?! And little bro Easton was a natural too. The Lively's have this awesome bench that we used for some cocoon shots - I LOVE THEM! and their backyard is amazing. This is just a very small sneak peak. More after Shanna and Paul view first!!

ROCK THE DRESS

[gallery columns="4"]

Are you getting married this year, and wondering what to do with your dress afterwards? Perhaps you’ve already found the dress of your dreams and can’t wait to wear it on your big day? I know I was more excited about my dress than anything else (except, perhaps, the actual ‘getting married’ bit!) but I felt some sadness, even before my wedding day, that I’d only get to wear this dress once. I loved it. I wanted to wear it ALL. THE. TIME. But, of course, you can’t.

Except that, now, more and more women are dressing up again, after their wedding day, to get some gorgeous photographs. Photographs that really show off the dress, show off the fun of wearing the dress. It’s not about setting fire to your dress, or covering it in paint (although I’m happy to do the latter) – it’s about treasuring your dress, without worrying about a little dust or dirt. So, if you’ve just bought your dress, it’s something to bear in mind for after your wedding day.

And, with that in mind, I’m running a special offer through the month of March – if you book me to be your wedding photographer in 2010, I will include a 2 hour Rock the Dress session at no additional cost. Yes – a FREE Rock the Dress session for all brides who book their wedding photography with me this month!

So, email me now at jocelynsmithphotography@gmail.com to book your wedding photography and **FREE** Rock the Dress session at the same time!

Amelia - 7 months

[gallery columns="4"]

Let me introduce...AMELIA! Her mommy and I were great friends in high school and today I got to meet her gorgeous baby, Amelia. This is just a sneak peek of what is to come. Prepare yourself for the cuteness! Oh and I learned that it is really hard to photograph babies and puppies together. At the same time. But, Clancey is the CUTEST puppy ever and I still got some good shots. Enjoy!  And special thanks to Libby for having patience like I do!
