Jamie Neilsen Photography: The Blog bio picture

Hi, I'm Jamie!

I know you have a choice.  There are a lot of photographers out there – which is a great thing because it keeps pushing me to be better than ever. When you choose me to be your photographer, I do a little happy dance and then I get right to work on creating the perfect portrait experience for you. While my craft is closely tied to gear and gadgets, I know that you are a person and you deserve a personal experience.

I promise to not only take “pretty pictures” but to take pictures that make your heart swell and your toes curl.

I promise to let you be you and photograph what comes naturally.

I promise to be silly, have fun and make you laugh out loud.

I promise to provide plenty of options and guidance so you get exactly what you’re looking for…and then add a cherry on top that you didn’t even ask for.

I promise to deliver high quality heirloom photographs that you can’t wait to hang on your walls…big.

And when it’s all said and done…

I promise to stay in touch well after your session because I value our relationship.

I’m Jamie Neilsen and I’d be honored to be your photographer.

Wanna know more?

I didn’t find photography. Photography found me.
Chewy chocolate brownies are my weakness. No nuts. No frosting.
My husband is my jeweler, personal chef and best friend.
I have nearly a dozen brothers and sisters.
I’m not a morning person.
I adore all things Italian – especially red wine and rich food.
I’m a PC by day and a Mac by night.
I don’t own a TV.
I’d rather dress up than wear jeans and a t-shirt.
I am a lifestyle and portrait photographer.

Jeanine’s Family Portraits

You may remember several months ago when I blogged about this hot mama and her little Liam who was still cookin’. Now he’s out and about and growing faster than weeds. It’s so fun to see how much he changes from week to week. Jeanine’s mom was in town so she rounded up her family for portraits in the park. The Meridian Park at the historic Good Shepherd Center is one of my new favorite places to shoot.

 

Liam wears this adorable hat just like his daddy. It’s their signature look!

 

 

 

I also got to take a bunch of photos of Grandma Kathleen by herself. She has a big birthday coming up and wanted some fun birthday pictures. I’ll blog those separately later this week because she looks fantastic in them and it definitely deserves its own post.

 

 

 

Liam has so many expressions. I giggled many times while editing their pictures. He makes the best faces. Be sure to check out the slide show to see more of his sweet face.

 

 

 

Recognize the guy on the left? I did his graduation pictures last month! Dylan is Jeanine’s “little” brother.

 

 

 

This shot of Jeanine and Liam just melts me! I hope they blow it up big and put it on their wall next to this shot of Liam with Daddy.

 

 

 

 

 Be sure to check out the slide show for more beautiful shots of this fantastic family!
