Snow Day!

Well, the weathermen acted like the sky was falling and, naturally, the powers that be gave the kids a day off from school. We then proceeded to get a whopping 2 inches of snow. To top it off, they also gave us a 2 hour delay for no apparent reason this morning. But I was afforded the opportunity to get outside and practice photographing the girls out in the snow. Snow photography is pretty tricky so practice is pretty important.

Jeune Girl Photography: Booking for Spring & Summer

For someone who is pretty new to the world of booking shoots, I think I'm pretty darn busy! I have very limited availability for April and May (well, part of that is due to the fact that one of my very best best friends is getting married in May). If you hope to have a photo shoot with me, please contact me soon.


If you are not familiar with my work, I invite you to scroll through my blog and see the photos I've taken. I am also a professional crafter and make many of my own props that I bring to my shoots. What I can't make myself, I make sure to find the best of the best who provide me with so many goodies to bring to my shoots. (below is an apron I made to bring to photo shoots... little girls LOVE to get dressed up)

I hope to hear from many of you.

I Heart Faces: Texture Challenge

I applied texture to the bricks and the door to really pop the color on this 200 year old house.

Contests are open for entries on Mondays and Tuesdays so definitely check them out!

My Sweet Valentines!

This whole photography thing for me started with my girls. Don't get me wrong, I've always taken photos (8 rolls of film on my honeymoon will attest to that... yes I've been married so long that my photos from the honeymoon and my wedding are on FILM) but I started really getting interested in taking better photos when my girls came along.

Actually, it was because of my girls that I started taking on clients. I got some compliments on my photos of my girls and had people ask if I would do their photos too and it's just grown from there. I'm lucky to have these two little cuties to practice on. They are both pretty cooperative with me when I need to get a few key shots. I couldn't resist photographing them in for Valentine's Day. Now to make a card to send out! (in my spare time!)

Announcement Coming: Next Week

Get ready... Jeune Girl Photography in collaboration with Lyla's Lovelies Designs will be making a big announcement that any parent of a local girl (Dutchess & Ulster County, New York) does NOT want to miss.

Canvas Prints: Available to My Clients

I was lucky to have an opportunity to get a great deal on some canvases so I decided to order 6 of them for my own wall (all from my trip to Ireland) while 3 clients also joined me in this great deal. They all came out fabulous and I am confident that any client that decides to purchase one will be very pleased.
