Newborn Photography--Sneak Peek

Ok, I was supposed to post this sneak peek ages ago and it's not much of a sneak peek anyway since I'll be posting the entire session in few moments for the parents to view! But, I couldn't resist sharing this little cutie!







And I can't leave out the other baby in the family!

Sneek Peek | B & G

We didn't get to do an engagement session so we decided to do a "anniversary session" Hey G....Here's your sneak peek.

Fun Family -- Sneak Peek

I had a lot of fun working with this family. It's taking me a long time to proof because I WAY overshot. I seriously couldn't stop taking pictures. It doesn't hurt that they were a beautiful family and the weather was gorgeous. Normally I only promise 15-20 proofs from a session but I'll definitely have more this time! Enjoy the sneak peek.

Cutie

I know I've been neglecting the blog but I have been so busy at work (WEKU) that I haven't had time to pop in and update anything. Oh well.

I did promise a sneak peek to the Aunt of this little cutie. Here you go Steph. I have to say she was just so content wherever we put her I could have played with her all day. Too bad it was so cold we didn't get to stay out long.

Happy Birthday

Today is my hubby's birthday! We've been together a long time. I think I loved him from our first date and never stopped. He "gets me" like no one else and he makes me laugh everyday!

Happy Birthday Baby!

Do you LOVE your dog!

I was reading another photography blog this morning that mentioned that Erin Vey, who does THE MOST AWESOME dog portraits, is having a contest on her blog. Read more about it HERE

Poor Neglected Blog

I've been neglecting the blog and, sadly, this entry will be short and sweet. Short because I've had a headache all day and sweet because I'm adding a pic of my sweet little guy. :)

{Sneak Peek}

I had the pleasure of photographing a beautiful senior this week. Very different from the toddlers I'm used to. LOL.

{Website}

My new website is almost finished. When it's completely done I'll be switching to a new bigger and better blog too. For a sneak peek click here

And just because I can't post without a picture. Here is a little puppy--Jake. He belongs to my parents.

{Flowers}

On my last visit to my parent's house we were outside and I noticed how beautiful her flower garden was so, of course, I had to pull the camera out.

Newborns!

I wanted to let everyone know I am still looking for fresh faces for my new website! And when I say fresh I mean FRESH--2 weeks old or less! If you are pregnant now call ahead with your due date and I will reserve a spot for you. The session would take place in your home (or location of your choice)utilizing beautiful natural lighting. You don't even have to get out of your pajamas!

Newborns change so fast. Don't miss the opportunity to have precious photographs made of your child in those early stages. I love this age so much I'm offering a free 8x10 to those that book a session within the first two weeks after birth. Call for more details 859.353.4919 or email julie@jtennillphoto.com.

{Some Oldies but Goodies}

{A Visitor}

Last weekend we had a little visitor at my parent's house. We saw him as we were leaving trying to make his way across the driveway. Of course we had to get out and take a closer look!

{Friends}

I'm sad to say that one of Jonah's friends (and his little brother) is moving this week. They have been going to the same sitter since they were both a few months old. When I heard L's family was moving I decided I wanted to get some pictures of the 3 boys playing together--boy was that hard. They were having so much fun none of them would stay in place very long! I think I got a few good ones, though, despite the chaos. LOL. I love this one despite the lack of big smiles. It was bittersweet to see these 3 playing together. I'm sure I'll add a few more when I finish proofing.

C, L, & J -- The 3

I know Jonah is too young to completely grasp that his playmate isn't going to be there anymore. We had a talk about it yesterday but this morning he still expected to be playing with his buddy again--just like everyday for the past 2+ years. He was saying, "I'm going to take my motorcycle to show L and C" as we left the house. We are definately going to miss our friends.

{Sharing}

When I started this blog I wasn't sure what I wanted to talk about. Is it strictly business? Is it OK to post personal stories. Ultimately I decided that even though I want to use it as a way to keep people updated on the latest J. Tennill Photography news it would be really boring if that's all I ever talked about. So from now on I'll be letting you get to know ME better and sharing all the cool things that I love.

So here is something I think rocks----it's called Pandora. I guess you could call it an internet radio website but it is really so much more than that. The reason it rocks is that it takes each element of your favorite song and creates a playlist from that song based on the research of the Music Genome Project. Which means, you'll be listening to all your favorites in no time, plus, they will throw in music you may not have heard before. So go check it out! You are going to love it!

And well, since this a photography blog, here's a photo...hehe

{Harley}

Meet Harley...We got him last weekend from the Scott County Humane Society. They were awesome to work with. He is such a sweetheart and Jonah loves him so much. He loves to pet and snuggle with him and when we pet him he says "be easy, mom...be easy." Too cute.

{Celebrate Birth}

Here is a birth announcement I designed for the little sweetheart below. I love doing these. :)

{Newborn}

I had the honor of photographing the nephew of one of my dearest friends. We go waaaay back. Meet Trenton---isn't he the cutest thing!

{Vintage}

I've always loved black and white for photographs but lately I've been inspired by a worn, vintage, '70's look. I love the way it looks on seniors and engagements.

{Portfolio Building}

I am still in need of images for my brand new website--which means I need models. And that means you can get a great deal on photos. Special pricing means you can get prints at 50% off regular prices and I'll waive the session fee with a signed model release (hey--I need the images for the website). If you, or anyone you know, is interested in taking advantage of portfolio building prices please shoot me an email at julie@jtennillphoto.com . I need all ages--newborn to HS seniors.
And here a little cutie just for fun...
