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.

TGIF | Let’s Watch a Funky Parade

Whew! We made it. Is anyone else excited as me that it’s finally Friday!? This was a rough week for me. I haven’t been sleeping well, the work is piling up and I nearly had a meltdown over laundry. All I want to do right now is sink into a giant tub of hot water,...

Jeevan & Jaan | Birthday Party

A couple weeks ago, brothers Jeevan and Jaan celebrated their third and fourth birthday together. It was quite a party with a couple dozen kids, a bouncy castle in the backyard, a sand box, ball pit, air hockey, ice cream cake and an eighteen seater train that was driven around the neighborhood by a dashing gentleman in...
