Happy FIRST Birthday Joslyn! | First Birthday Portrait Session | Jenna Marie Photography

Oh Joslyn Sky :)
what a beauty you are!

The last time I photographed miss Joslyn she was just an itty bitty newborn! I loved taking her first birthday portraits this past month and being able to capture her sweet and spunky personality.

She is just too cute for words :)

Happy first birthday Joslyn, hope you had a wonderful day!

 

Isaiah is turning ONE | Cake Smash | Jenna Marie Photography

This little cutie pie celebrated his FIRST birthday earlier this week :)

He was so curious throughout his session he just wanted to play! And how cute is his puppy cake? His wonderful mommy did such an amazing job on it!

Happy Birthday Isaiah!
I hope you had an amazing day :)

Baby Abrum | 9 Month Portraits | Jenna Marie Photography

So. Much. Cuteness.

I first met this handsome little guy when he was just a few weeks old for his newborn pictures and I cannot believe he will be turning one in just a few short months!

Baby Abrum is quite the character now :) he was a mixture of serious, and happy, and goofy and smiley all throughout his session. And check out that hair! Isn't he just the cutest?!

Here are a few of my favorites from his 9 month portrait session.

Happy SECOND Birthday Daymian! | Birthday Portrait Session | Jenna Marie Photography

Oh Daymian,

Check out this little hunk!

I cannot get over that adorable little smile of his, and boy oh boy did he make us work for it! There was laughter, tears, smiles, and frowns throughout his session but we managed to get some great shots for his second birthday portraits.

Happy Second Birthday Daymian! Thank you so much for letting me share these moments with you :)

Happy FIRST Birthday Paxton! | Cake Smash Session | Jenna Marie Photography

    Oh sweet baby Paxton :)

He definitely kept everyone busy by chasing him around for his session! He was just too curious with the set up and he just wanted to play (can you blame him??) and of course when it came time for the cake.... that poor cake didn't stand a chance! Paxton's older brothers were hoping to have some extra cake to take home for themselves but as you can see there was nothing left!

We celebrated his birthday portraits with a fun and exciting "ONEderland" theme that his super creative mommy chose! And how adorable is the cake that she made for him? By the looks of it, Paxton sure did enjoy it :) I am so happy I was able to capture these for Paxton and his wonderful family, thank you so much for letting me a part of it all!

Happy Birthday Paxton!

Autumn | Valentine Mini Session | Jenna Marie Photography

Love is in the air :) 

and how could it not with a princess like miss Autumn?! 

I cannot believe it has been about a year since I first met this little cutie pie. One of the perks of my "job" is watching all these precious little ones and being able to capture these moments along the way! 

Here is a sneak peak of her Valentine Mini Session :) 

Daniel & Ava | Daddy & Me | Albuquerque, New Mexico | Jenna Marie Photography

I love seeing the relationship between a father and his daughter, it truly is a special bond.

One that is forever cherished.

Daniel and Ava are like two peas in a pod :)

They are silly, and playful, and most of all just unbelievably sweet.  

This session was perfect. I adored EVERY. SINGLE. shot taken..  The father-daughter relationship shared between these two is so precious and loving. And as always, I had THE hardest time trying to decide on which ones to share with you.

Thank you so much Daniel for letting me be a part in capturing these moments for

you and Ava! 

 

The Monarrez Family | Corrales, New Mexico | Jenna Marie Photography

I know I have said it many times before... but I absolutely LOVE what I do :)

I love being able to capture moments like these for families and what better way to jump start the new year than with the beautiful Monarrez family!

I know, I know. They are adorable, and loving, and just about one of the sweetest families ever. This session was just beyond perfect. 

I had a wonderful time getting to know them all and seeing the amazing personalities in each of their children. There was laughter, tears, frowns and tons and tons of smiles :) 

Here are some of my favorites from their family session in the gorgeous bosque location in Corrales, New Mexico. Thank you again for letting me share these priceless moments with you!  

Isabella is turning ONE | First Birthday Portrait Session | Jenna Marie Photography

Ahhh so many first birthdays for the month of November! 
I first met baby Isabella when she was just a few weeks old! And here she is a year later and full of so much love, you can already tell she takes after her beautiful mommy :) Happy first birthday Isabella!  

Lauren | Corrales, New Mexico | Jenna Marie Photography

I LOVED working with miss Lauren here for her high school dance portraits. She is absolutely lovely, both inside and out. Her and her family has to be some of the sweetest people I have ever met! Thank you so much for allowing me to capture these for you! 

The Rael-Kilkenny Family | Maternity Portrait Session | Corrales, NM | Jenna Marie Photography

Julian and Leanna will be welcoming their second baby boy in just a few more weeks, and I couldn't be more excited for them. This lovely, soon to be family of four, ventured with me in one of my favorite bosque locations for their maternity session and everything about it was stunning. Thank you so much for allowing me to capture these moments for you and your families! 

Autumn | Fall Mini Portrait Session | Jenna Marie Photography

So much cuteness! 

I first met Autumn about 6 months ago for her Easter/Spring mini portrait session and I cannot believe how much she has changed since then! And isn't her Halloween costume just precious? Her wonderful mommy made it and I love how it turned out! She was by far the cutest little Dorothy that I have ever seen :) 

The Brown Family | Corrales, NM | Jenna Marie Photography

I simply ADORE this family! I mean how cute are they? 
I have photographed them since I first started my business a little over a year ago and I love watching their little babies grow! They are always so silly and full of love :) 

I cannot wait to photograph baby Cece's first birthday/cake smash session in the next few weeks! It is going to be a blast! 

 

 

Michael + Kirsten | "We Still Do" | Jenna Marie Photography

Michael & Kirsten will be renewing their vows in a little over a year. So of course we celebrated with some pictures to capture their love for one another. Here are a few of my favorites from their session!

Cassiee | Class of 2016 | Senior Portraits | Jenna Marie Photography

It's that time of year again! Time to start thinking about Senior portraits :)

I love being able to meet all the wonderful 2016 Seniors and hear about their goals for their future. It's so exciting to see such bright and creative individuals! To kick things off, here are some of my favorites from Cassiee's Senior session :) 
 

Aria is turning THREE! | Corrales, New Mexico | Jenna Marie Photography

Oh. My. Goodness.

What a firecracker this little beauty was! I am just in love with everything about this session (yes, yes, I know I say that about ALL my sessions but it's true and I mean it each and every time! I seriously have the best clients EVER). From posing with her hands on her hips to giving us "kissy faces", Aria is quite the character in front of the camera! Here is a preview from her third birthday photo shoot! Happy Birthday little one, hope you had a wonderful day! 

Happy Fall! | Fall Portrait Sessions | Jenna Marie Photography

My favorite time of the year has finally come... FALL! I love everything about it... the cool, crisp morning air, caramel apple cider, the beautiful scenery, Holiday traditions with my main little guy... my list can seriously go on and on! 

And although I would LOVE to hold on to the lovely summer weather, the colors all throughout New Mexico have already started to change! So... this means it is time to start offering our Fall Portrait Sessions! Last year these were such a hit and I met so many wonderful families (I seriously have THE BEST clients!)    :)   So of course I was more than excited to get these started!

This year, I wanted to have a fun and unique Fall themed set up for our children's mini portrait sessions, something that I knew would stand out and also show more of my creativity! Of course, my son (who will be turning THREE in December! Where has the time gone??) was my inspiration. He loves being outside and playing in the dirt and throwing leaves all over the place (typical boy!). And that's what I love about being a photographer, I can capture these moments of him just being a kid...playing, making messes, just simply enjoying life. 

And I have to admit, I am pretty happy with the way my Fall set up turned out and cannot wait to capture all the cuties again this year! Now these sessions book quickly, so many families want portraits with the beautiful Fall scenery, so be sure to reserve your date soon! Here is a look at my little guys portrait session :) and thank you so much to all my lovely clients who have been with me throughout the past year since I started, you guys mean so much to me! 

Happy FIRST Birthday Autumn! | Cake Smash | Jenna Marie Photography

What. A. Doll!

I first met Autumn when she was around 6 months old and I LOVE seeing how much her personality has changed! Her wonderful mommy chose a beautiful mint and gold vintage theme and I am in love with how this set up came out. 

Little miss Autumn was NOT too fond of her birthday portraits, (she would not give me a smile no matter how many silly faces or goofy noises I made :) ) but once it came down to the cake, there was no stopping her! I was actually surprised with how messy she got. I did not expect her to cover her face with cake :) but I can't complain, I think her mommy, daddy and I laughed and smiled at her the WHOLE time as we watched her cover herself in cake. It's moments like these that I LOVE capturing for families :) 

Travis + Jackie | Hyde Memorial State Park | Jenna Marie Photography

I first met Travis and Jackie about a year ago and I instantly fell in love. They have to be one of the sweetest couples ever and right from the start I could already see the love they shared for one another.  

July 11, 2015 marked the official start of their journey as husband and wife... the start of their forever. 

Their wedding day was filled with love, laughter, and many, many tears of joy. They chose the beautiful scenery up in Hyde Park and it was absolutely breathtaking. 

Congratulations to Travis and Jackie and thank you so much for letting me capture your big day!
