Love. Pure adoration and love. That’s pretty much all I can say about this couple and these images. I have to admit that my eyes teared up a time or two just feeling & sensing the love between them and it was pretty amazing. Thank you Brian & Heather for allowing me the privilidge of shooting for your first maternity session. I simply can’t wait to meet Baby Mason!

Just catching up on some spring sessions I haven’t posted yet! We met at the Japanese Tea Gardens for an evening of hiking, fun & exploring all over the park and then met at my studio for part 2 a few days later, a 2nd birthday celebration!

Thanks for stopping by! I have more to post so I hope you’ll stop in often & say hello!! Stay tuned for information on a day of Boudoir sessions I’ll be doing sometime in early August at my studio. I’ll provide a makeup artist, a private fun location & fruity drinks so all you’ll have to do is show up & have FUN!

An Evening in the Bluebonnets

Jana — Sat, 10 Apr 2010 22:58:17 +0000

I adore my friend Holly. We just clicked…..immediately, but then again she clicks with everyone, she’s just one of those people. She’s the kind of girl who everyone loves and I’m grateful she came into my life via Tracy and then it all just snowballed from there. I shot her maternity session and then her newborn session and recently she asked if I’d take pics of their new family of 3 in the bluebonnets. Well of course! We were supposed to meet on a friday evening but on wednesday it was such a lovely day and I was out shooting other sessions anyway so I asked if they might be able to meet me a couple of days early and thankfully they could because we simply couldn’t have asked for a more lovely evening. They brought along a good friend of theirs and he brought his sweet baby, Chloe, so I took some shots of them too. Talk about adorable! Thank you Guys for such a fun evening, I hope you had as much as I did.

It’s been such a pleasure watching this little one grow up along with her 2 big sisters. Noelle just turned 1 on monday so she & mommy met me at the studio for a few quick photos to document the momentous day so here are a few sneak peeks for them……..

Nothing like ending the session with a big hearty giggle!! Happy 1st birthday Sweet Noelle.

I just love it when…..

……I’m uploading images from a session and then I run across one that literally makes my heart leap with joy. Tonight this one was it. Little Brother in the midst & safety of his 3 big sisters. At that moment I just don’t think it got any better for him.

Pretty Girl

Jana — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 02:26:51 +0000

A few weeks ago I was asked to do headshots for a young girl who is interested in persuing acting & such and she needed some headshots for her portfolio. Her mom wanted them to be very relaxed & outdoorsy so I met them at their home and we had fun taking pretty photos in their backyard. I had NO idea she was going to wear pink and had just happened to bring along my trusty pink wooden chair and a pretty old quilt I scored recently at a local craft mall and they worked just perfectly for some of the shots! Of course I felt the need to emphasize her baby blues & lovely smile so I hope the photos bring her luck because she is sure a talented lovely girl, inside & out.

I’m also THRILLED to announce that I’m hoping to sign a lease on studio space this week so I will also be able to provide indoor studio natural light photography along with my usual on-location photography. The space is big & bright with 2 large windows and I can’t wait to move in and make it my own! I promise to post pics soon as soon as I’m able to so you can see it for yourself to keep checking back!

Baby Ethan Sneak Peek! {Schertz newborn photography}

Jana — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 15:55:59 +0000

Mama Holly has been waiting patiently so I wanted to post a few sneak peeks of her precious long-awaited bundle of joy, you might remember her maternity session. I went to their beautiful home for some photos of Baby Ethan at 11 days old because his great-grandfather who is 90 years young was visiting from New York and they were both as charming as can be! Little guy didn’t want to sleep but that’s ok, we made the best of it since he was very relaxed & patient with us as we changed his outfits & moved him around. What a little trooper! Congrats Holly & Brad, your little man is simply precious…..

Sneak Peek for the Garza Family {San Antonio Family Photographer}

Jana — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 06:02:17 +0000

I’m excited that business is back up & running after the holiday hiatus. The break was nice but it’s also been wonderful to get back in the groove and shoot some fun sessions with some awesome people and the Garza family was no exception! Tamanya found me online, she lives in Philadelphia, but the rest of her family is here in Texas. She was going to be in San Antonio for 5 days and really wanted to have family portraits taken since it’d been 10 yrs. since they’d had a family photo taken. With it being January and all I was a bit nervous & praying that the weather would cooperate with us since we only had a few days to work with but gratefully the day we were scheduled to meet the sun was shining & the temps nice & warm so we were blessed indeed! They wanted a natural relaxed setting so we met at the park and had a fun afternoon walking around & getting to know each other so I wanted to post a few sneak peeks for them. Enjoy & thank you!

the sweet Philly girl who found & hired me!

Business is picking up and will be back in full swing soon as the weather here in South Texas is already warming up and spring flowers will be sprouting before we know it so if you’re considering booking a session either for your high school senior, your family or your children now is the time to book & lock in the date of your choice! With the spring comes busy baseball season for our family so my weekend dates will be limited due to baseball tournaments out of town and I know that it’s easiest for many familes to shoot on the weekend because of work and all so contact me soon if you’re interested. You can contact me here through my blog or you can also email me directly at browneyedgirlphotography@yahoo.com. Hope to hear from you soon!

Happy New Year!!

Jana — Wed, 30 Dec 2009 15:59:15 +0000

Hope that all of you had a wonderful, safe & blessed holiday season and are looking foward to the new year with as much anticipation as I am. We had a nice relaxing Christmas with my mom & brother here at the house. Everyone loved their gifts, candlelight church service on Christmas eve was lovely, got to hang with friends that evening, Christmas dinner turned out yummy and I spent nearly 2 days in my jammies so I’d say that’s an overall success! As much as I enjoy this time of year, for some reason when the hubby & my family headed out early on sunday morning I decided it was time to take all of the Christmas decor down when I normally am the gal who’s FINALLY taking her tree down in January. I don’t know……I just seemed to have the motivation & energy to do it so down it came. It took me two full days of working but it’s done and put away nicely all tucked away for next year which is a really good feeling. I don’t know if it was because this was our first Christmas without Dad or what, but I was just ready for it to be DONE and now I’m eagerly anticipating to see what 2010 will hold for me personally & professionally. If it’s anything like what 2009 was, it’ll be exciting for sure!

The next week or so I’ll be going back & posting sessions from ’09, the first of which is one I did with my pastor & his family back in August. They gave prints from their session as Christmas presents so I needed to keep their secret with them till now. We did the session at their river-side property which is so lovely. It was a warm summer day but they were troopers & did great and thankfully their print gifts were a hit!

Thank you Deahl family for allowing me to capture memories for you & your family!

We’ll be heading up to Dallas soon to cheer on Oklahoma State in the Cotton Bowl on the 2nd so if I don’t post again before then, I pray all of you have a safe & FUN New Years Eve! Adios 2009, you’ve been a year of extreme highs & the lowest of lows but all in all you were a good one so thank you.

‘Tis the season!!

We finally had a pretty sunny day a few days ago so I did something I’d not really done before…….I just walked around the house and took pics. I try to mix up my holiday decor and do things differently every year but I really liked the way my Christmas decor turned out last year and I really regretted not taking photos of the house because my memory stinks frankly and I couldn’t remember exactly what I’d done! Well, thankfully I won’t have that problem next year now that I have photos for posterity’s sake.

I collect snowmen and have for years and years

I have 5 Christmas trees in my house, is that just plain ridiculous??!

I really love red, can you tell?!

This tree is in my foyer covered in antiquey ornaments, most of them covered in German glass glitter which I just love

Another view of our main Chrismtas tree

A nativity scene is always present in our home at Christmas time

We have always had stockings for the boys, it’s just so fun tucking little goodies in there for them……even on into their teens

I have a small black table & shelf when you walk into the house that I decorate for the seasons

Happy holidays to you & yours……hope you have a very safe, happy & joyous Christmas!
