bands and babies

What are you supposed to do when you can't get everyone together?  

This was the problem when Laura and I started planning for a band portrait for El El.

Firstly, check out their music. They are AMAZING. 

... like them on face book too! ...

Secondly, our answer to this question was obvious; we had to clone them. Check it...

 

So before this awesome shoot happened, 

Laura and I scouted out the Lancaster Loyalty Carnival with her precious baby girl, Vespertine. 

This wasn't meant to be a baby shoot, but how could I resist???

Too...  Freaking...  Adorable...

I am going crazy with how cute she is. I cannot wait to have a full shoot with this precious little angel.

back from winter hibernation

Spring is finally here! That means it's time to crawl out of my bat cave and actually do something. 

And by doing something, I mean post some pictures that I did over the winter!

My birthday was in April, so a few friends accompanied me to the Pocono's for 4 days to celebrate. 

We ended up going to Ghost Town, USA, where I captured this sweet gem.

Earlier this year I decided to do a mini-self portrait shoot to practice my lighting skills. 

It turned into how-many-weird-faces-can-I-make kind of shoot.

And last weekend I second a shot a wedding with my bestest friend in the world, Caren.

Aside from doing weddings, I am starting to get into photographing bands, both live and portraits. 

I will post more about this later on (it's going to be an epic post, I promise!)

UP! with love!

Meet my little sister and my soon to be brother-in-law. 

Sam proposed to Christy 2 years after they met. 

(on 4th of July, in front of a crowd of people, with FIREWORKS!)

We thought balloons would be fun for an engagement session, so we bought 2 dozen and had some fun.

Sam and Christy are both members at their local fire company, so of course I had to take this!

I cannot wait until their wedding next year. I am also helping her plan her wedding, so you might be seeing more wedding related posts this year as well!

PS: I am currently in the process of setting up a beaudoir session to be held in early January. If you are interested, get in touch with me!

Portraits :: The Tresslers

The Tresslers are one cute bunch! And can I just say I love the outfits? ADORABLE, right! I had so much fun with the kids, and the pictures came out great (even if it was freezing out!)

PS:: I am thinking about running a mini holiday special for family portraits. If anyone is interested, please contact me at  jennyblazephotography.com   I will have more details on that later this week!

Posing 101

I know I haven't been here for awhile, but that's okay, I have got a cure for your sadness.

Sometimes it can be difficult doing portraits. You try to bring out the personality in your subject, but other times it's quite hard when the client asks for a certain "pose".

I present you some terrible ideas (but somehow, so totally awesome)

With a Gameboy :: 

I apologize sir, but is that a gameboy advance? If you aren't playing Pokemon, I am going to be severely disappointed.

With a ladder ::

Get back to work, that ladder isn't dirty enough.

With a keyboard ::

"If by my life or death, I can protect you, I will." (Aragorn)

 

With a floppy disc ::

That disc contains all the footage from icanhascheezburger.com

With your hamburger meat ::

Finders keepers.  ;-)

In short, if you ever find yourself wondering what you could do for your portrait session, steal an idea from these guys.
