A congratulations to my gorgeous cousin Britney, Miss Lee County USA! I was privileged to help her obtain some beautiful head shots and personality portraits for her portfolio and her upcoming competition for Miss Florida. She will be competing in July for the title and the crown in Hollywood, Florida. It was so much fun at this shoot: tractors, trailers, and a gorgeous property to work in. The best part was catching up with a cousin that I don't see as much as I would like. We wish you the best of luck Britney!

My beautiful cousin Carrie is a senior this year and I can barely believe it! We went downtown to take her portraits, and the backdrops of the buildings and scenery worked perfectly for the looks she was going for to end her high school years in style. These pictures here are some of my favorites from the downtown shops, buildings and fountains. After a quick outfit change we went to the park, which was right there downtown, and we took pictures by the river and on the playground. A change of outfit and scenery can really alter the tone of the picture. The outfit Carrie chose for the building shots, along with the background that buildings provided, made the pictures turn out sharp and edgy. When we went to the river and the park she changed into a soft flowy white top with jean shorts and the pictures turned out with a softer tone, they were more feminine. So a downtown spot like that can offer you a variety of picture angles, and we can capture those different tones all in one sitting.

Congrats Carrie Johnson Class of 2010!

One of my favorite parts about photography in Fort Myers is that we have so many picturesque spots close by that we often take for granted. I live 20 minutes from the beach and I rarely ever catch as coastal sunset. All it takes is for us to slow down and instead of cooking in, or going out to dinner, pack a picnic dinner and a quilt and head to the beach to have dinner as the sun goes down, and of course, bring your camera, the sunset allows for breathtaking pictures and serene lighting...so have fun with it!

Whether it's the coastal sunset or a mid day sun, the beach always gives you some great picture opportunities. Some of my favorite senior pictures and engagements pictures I have seen and taken have been at the beach. If you love the beach, make your next portrait setting at any of our beautiful spots, such as Naples Beach, Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel Island, Captiva, or if you don't mind the drive check out Siesta Key in Sarasota, which is where we shot some of our favorite senior pictures. Also, don't be afraid to have fun in the water (just keep the camera dry!)...don't worry about your hair or your clothes, get in the ocean and pose for some amazing photographs!

For a fun day and some amazing pictures, contact us to schedule your next beach portrait shoot!

We are so excited to announce our newly updated website! It's the same address, www.jackandjillmedia.com but it's completely remodeled and reorganized. We felt that a fresh look with an updated pricing system was necessary...we call it "spring cleaning". You will see new galleries with a fresh face. We have also added a new feature called the Customer Portal, it is a link where customers who purchase our photography packages can go online and view their photos, and it allows family and friends to go on the website a enjoy them as well. These customer proof galleries have the complete set of photos from their session, unlike the main galleries which only have Jack and Jill Media's favorite photos. We hope you like the new site!

For our special beau's Meesh and I set up a very cute tea party/picnic set up in our neighborhood and shot some really pretty portraits of ourselves to frame as gifts. The springtime tones of the portraits turned out so serene. The weather is still relatively cool, but the sun has been shining so bright, which created great lighting for our portrait session. So Spring is almost here, and Jack and Jill is offering discounted Portrait Packages until March 1st. Basically you get any engagement session, senior portrait session, or general portrait session for the price of $200 instead of $250!! This includes a 2 hour session at any local spot, with a disc of all of your edited shots. It's simple, stunning, and you have professional portraits to add to your dusty frames. Give us a call or email us at jackandjill@me.com. Please also visit our website at www.jackandjillmedia.com
