A new "Baby Love" package and a trip down South

All new for 2011, I am now offering a Baby Love package for your precious new baby's first year. This package will include a total of 3 sessions. We will begin with a newborn session sometime during the first two weeks home from the hospital, a second session at age 6 months, and then we will finish with a combination portrait/cake smash session. I will provide the cake and you will also receive your favorite photo from each session in an 8x10 print. You will have full use of any of my props or you may bring some of your own. Anything goes. This package is $500 and I require half of this up front to hold your spot on my calendar.
**Please see my pricing page to see what is included in all of my sessions.

And...for all of my family and friends down in Louisiana... (: (: (:

I will be traveling to North Louisiana on March 11-14th and I am offering mini-sessions during my visit. All sessions will take place in either downtown Arcadia or at a private location off Hwy 151. I will be available for travel to Monroe or Shreveport if you need me to come to you. Call or email me with details and we will work something out! Sessions are $75 and will be approximately one hour long. They will include 10-15 fully edited images on a disk with a print release for personal use printing. I am available all day on Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th. If you would like to book a session with me while I am in Louisiana, please email me at
rhombus77 @ gmail (dot) com. I do require a non-refundable $25 deposit to hold your spot. This can be paid by check (email me for my address) or you can send it via Paypal. If you choose to pay with Paypal, I do add on $2.00 for their service charges. The deposit goes toward the total session fee of $75, with the remaining balance due before I begin shooting.

This is the perfect opportunity to get those family portraits done if you didn't have the time before Christmas!! And, anything goes for these dates, as well. I am open to family, couple, engagement, children, and you can even bring the four-legged loved ones, too!! (:

Baby Braxton-Sneak Peek

I have to offer an apology for not getting these photos on my blog sooner. So, I am sorry.

On a better note, I recently met with this sweet boy and his beautiful mommy for his two month session. And, let me tell ya, this baby stole my heart. He is so sweet and super cuddly!! It took us a full two hours to get this little fella to sleep, but once he was out we got some really great shots!!

Now, if that doesn't make you want another baby, nothing will. Precious!!

Having a Baby?

I have had so much fun photographing newborns lately and I feel truly honored to be a part of this special time in a family's life. I have ordered some new accessories and I have a bunch of new ideas that I am dying to use, so I am looking for a few newborn models. If you are having a baby between October 15th and December 15th and would like your baby photographed by me, please contact me at jackierenee@cox.net or call my cell at (479) 215-9643 as soon as possible. Each newborn will receive a free session in your home and one free 8 x 10 that is beautifully matted and framed. You will also receive 6 images on disk for web use and printing. All newborns must be photographed before 14 days of age.

Baby Jaiden Grace

This sweet girl was an absolute angel to photograph yesterday. You might remember her beautiful Mommy, Amber, from her maternity session not long ago. We didn't get all the shots we wanted because I was ill and we had to cut her session short. We had planned on meeting again for a re-shoot, but Little Miss Jaiden decided to surprise everyone and come a few weeks early!! Once I heard that Amber had given birth, I couldn't wait to meet this darling little peanut. We met for a brief time at Amber's home last week and again yesterday to capture a few shots of Baby Jaiden's "newness". I have to say this sweet girl has given me a serious case of baby fever!!



J is for Jaiden. Love this!! This little lady had so many cute things to wear it was hard to choose just a few for her pictures!!




Circle of Love.



Jaiden's Daddy was even cool enough to lay in the grass for over 20 minutes so I could get this shot!! Thank you, Kyle!!!




This is so sweet....as soon as we put her on these towels she immediately stuck her little bottom in the air!









See....I told her Jaiden's Mommy was gorgeous!!! She looks fantastic!!




Love, Love, Love this shot!!




This one positively melts my heart.




Kyle and Amber, thank you so much for allowing me the opportunity to capture the beauty of your precious newborn daughter. They grow up so fast and change so much their first year. I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I do and I look forward to working with you in the future!!!

Baby Adrienne Rose

I had the honor of meeting Jordan and photographing her sweet baby girl Adrienne today. She was a little fussy and VERY hungry, but we managed to get a few really good shots of her. I love her little cheeks and she even has pink painted toenails! Oh, a girl after my own heart!! Here are a few of my favorites from today's session. I will have more up soon.

Congrats to Jordan and Ryan on this precious baby girl!!

I hope you enjoy these.










My absolute favorite. Look at her little toes!

Presenting-Baby Nikali

Doesn't he have the cutest dimples, ever?



I had an amazing time yesterday with Sam and Maude's sweet family. Maude called me and wanted me to take some newborn photos of Baby Nikali. This would be my very first newborn photoshoot and let me tell you....I was so nervous!! But, this baby was the sweetest little fella and while he wanted to stay awake and nurse, once his mama got him to sleep he was out for the duration. His daddy, Sam, was awesome....even after little Nikali pooped on his arm. Dad didn't even flinch!!! I was excited to do these photos for Maude, and now that I have seen them full screen, I am even more excited with how they turned out!

I hope you enjoy this sneak peek Maude, I will have the rest of them ready for you next week. It has been a blessing working with you and I hope to see you again in the near future.

Congratulations Sam and Maude on this sweet, new baby!


















Okay, now I am off to deal with a serious case of baby fever. ;)
