JEN AMATO PHOTOGRAPHY BLOG

Hi, my name is Jen Amato and I am a Wedding & Portrait Photographer based out of New Orleans, LA. Welcome to my Blog! This is where you will find my most recent work, I update after each shoot. I think it is very important to get to know the photographer behind the lens, so I often post personal entries. I hope to share a little bit of my life with you! Photographing people has been so rewarding, that's why I LOVE what I do! My goal is for my photography to keep life's irreplaceable moments alive forever. Creating friendships with each person I photograph has been the best part! I hope you enjoy viewing my work and learning just a little bit about myself and my clients. Thanks for visiting and be sure to check back soon!

Adele :: Newborn

Friday, February 3, 2012 Posted in Newborns

I have been friends with Adele’s parents, Bobby & Therese for years and years!! I was so happy when I found out they were having a baby! Many months went by and I didn’t see Therese again until about 2 days before she was headed the hospital to have Adele. Bobby and Therese are first time parents, so it was exciting to talk with them about how they expected it to go, what they were going to feel like when they saw Adele for the first time, etc! When we photographed her newborn session I saw how in love these 2 are with their baby girl! She is just the sweetest thing and I was so excited to photograph this special time for them! Adele has the most beautiful brown hair and eyes. Her hair is so long its ready for a pony or pigtails! I just love it and her!

Thank you Bobby & Therese for asking me to take these photos of your precious little girl. It was so much fun catching up with you guys and being able to enjoy your new addition! I can’t wait to watch her grow up, I can tell from our shoot that she is going to be one sassy, bright eyed, energetic little hot tamale ;) Love you guys!

Lily :: 6 Months

Thursday, February 2, 2012 Posted in Children

Seems like yesterday I was photographing Lily’s Newborn photos! Now she’s 6 months!! We had a little fun with this shoot and did a few inside before heading to City Park! Her mom, Ashley had some really precious outfits for her! Also, my sister in law, Jen helped to make some of the headpieces! Jen is currently in the middle of starting up a headpiece collection, I can’t wait to photograph those for her. I will definitely be sharing those with you guys, I know plenty of my ‘Grow With Me’ Mommy’s love ordering fun accessories for their shoots!

Here are some favs from Lily’s session:

Liam :: Newborn

Wednesday, February 1, 2012 Posted in Newborns

It was such an honor to photograph this little Miracle Baby! Liam was so sweet and cute for our session that I could have taken him home! His mom, Mary emailed me about a session and briefly filled me in. Liam was born early at 27 weeks, weighing only 15 oz! His parents said he measured the length of a pencil. After being in the hospital for nearly 100 days, it was time for little man to come home! He is strong, healthy and full of life now. It’s days like this when I truly feel a connection with my career and the wonderful people I get to meet! Liam is a blessing and he reminds me of God’s power to heal. Thank you to his parents, Mary and Clint for giving me this opportunity. Your guys have a little piece of heaven here with you! Liam is precious and I was thrilled to be able to document just a tiny bit of his story! Thank you for sharing your miracle with me for one afternoon :)

Here are some of my favs from the day:

Caroline :: Newborn

Tuesday, January 31, 2012 Posted in Grow With Me, Newborns

It was a pleasure getting to meet Caroline last week! She was so cute, cuddly and tiny! She slept for just about her entire session and did great with her positions! She was ready for her close up! Looking forward to watching this little princess grow and change over the next year! Can’t wait until next session! :)

Lyla :: 9 Months

Monday, January 30, 2012 Posted in Children, Grow With Me

Lyla is another one of my ‘Grow With Me’ kids! The weather was a little funky last week so her Mom asked if we could do an indoor shoot! It’s January and our weather can be pretty unpredictable here! So why not!? :) We headed to the International Hotel downtown and shot these using natural window light. There’s some cute spots in their lounge area! Anyway, it always nice to do something different, thanks Kristin for the suggestion!

Here are some of my favs from Lyla’s 9 Month shoot!

Check out those leopard shoes, too cute!!!Lyla found a mirror!
