New Year’s Baby {Fresno Newborn Photographer}

Introducing handsome baby Keegan, he was 8 days old when we first captured these precious pictures.  Born on New Years day, he is nearly a month now. I am still playing catch up, but a sweet face like this is well worth the wait! I am proud of Keegan as he was extremely patient with us and his big sister McKenna too, whom was delighted to show him off to me.  Congratulations Mom and Dad, it’s clear you two make the most amazing children.

Adored Henry {California Baby Photographer}

Baby Henry is clearly the star of this family.  At only 4 1/2 months old, I can see that he has captured the hearts of everyone.  Henry lives far away with his parents and they were in town visiting for the holidays.  Mom wanted each of her beloved family members to have some fun photos with him, and asked me to capture these special moments.  What an honor it was, and I am so proud of Henry for being a real trouper with all the wardrobe changes.

January 17, 2012 - 4:08 pm

Brittny Ryan - Hurrah! They look fantastic and can’t wait to see the rest. Thanks so much Jamie! Very exciting to see the end result looking so wonderful; you really captured some great shots.

New Beginnings for a New Year

First off, a belated Happy New Year to everyone!  The end of 2011 came with a mixed bundle of delights and challenges. Looking back on the year I accomplished everything I said I would, and more. I launched an updated look and website for I See Beauty, as well as being certified as an Eco-Friendly photographer forwarding my commitment to the betterment our children’s future.  I took a two month journey to Australia and New Zealand establishing some very deep friendships, creating life long memories, and capturing some amazing images. But the thing I accomplished in 2011 that is the most dear to my heart is that I became the foster mother of a very special 6 year old little girl.

The hurdles of mothering a child with a high level of special needs forced me to take a step back from my everyday life and business, to refocus my time and attention on stabilizing her.  I am happy to say that we are making progress, and in this very short period of time my daughter and I have come a long way.  The strides she has made is encouraging and I am hopeful for her continued success.

Now that it has been more than two months since motherhood came knocking at my door, I am working hard at achieving the balance so crucial with new mothers. How do I give my daughter the time and attention she so desperately needs, along with fulfilling my necessities, keeping the business I am so passionate about thriving, and finding a little break every now and then?  These questions are all on my mind daily.  I haven’t figured it all out yet, but I have been carving some much needed time out each week that is dedicated to I See Beauty.

With all that being said, I am excited for 2012 and where the unforeseen adventures will take me. The great news is I am back to photographing again after my unexpected break, so do not hesitate to contact me for pictures!

A special thanks to my friend Marcy for taking these beautiful images of us.

January 15, 2012 - 5:51 am

Krissy - Beautiful, Jamie! You are both so lucky to have each other. Being a new mother is hard, but I’m sure stepping into the roll with an older child has a whole different set of challenges. Just know your friends, clients and family are all in your corner rooting you on. Although it may take some time, you WILL find that balance and become a rock star mommy who can produce wonderful images, run a household, eat nutritious meals, spend quality time, and still somehow manage an occasional pedicure or uninterrupted movie ;) I can’t wait to see what your future holds. Congrats on all your accomplishments!

January 15, 2012 - 11:08 am

Lisa - Jamie, you look radiant in this photo. I had a wonderful time catching up with you yesterday. Emilia and I also enjoyed having lunch with you and your daughter. Love you, Lisa

January 15, 2012 - 10:37 pm

Marcy - The pictures came out so beautifully! I’m so glad to be a part of your journey with this small one… and now to have a part in recording it through photo… what a gift to me! And to her. You are a beautiful person- way beyond external appearances and into the depths of who you are and long to be. You are doing an amazing job and I am so proud of you!!! Keep at it! We’re all in this together! :)

Excited for Baby Boy {Fresno Maternity and Family Photography}

I was delighted to hear this family was expecting a little boy and they wanted me to photograph another set of very special moments in their lives.  I first pointed my camera at them when they were pregnant with their first, beautiful McKenna, who I can hardly believe is already 3. She is now an active toddler, and was quite the ham for my camera this time around.

This sneak peek is a little late, as they just had their darling little boy. I have already had the pleasure of photographing him, and I cannot wait to show him off.  Fortunately, I have wonderful and understanding clients like this family.  I have had to put everything on hold for the month of December while I adjust to my new life with a foster daughter that has many unexpected challenges. I hope to get back into the swing of things soon!
