Feel free to email me if you are interested in a session. September has 1 spot left, October has a few, so please contact me soon if you are looking for fresh portraits before the Holidays!! Nov, Dec & Jan are filling up as well. Taking in 4 sessions per week only. XOXO!












Well I am officially on Maternity leave! I am completely wrapped up with all shoots and editing until early September! I’m sorry I haven’t posted many personal entries lately, I can honestly say that my head has been so focused on preparing for baby, wrapping up work with my clients and building a house. I look forward to sharing more with you guys soon once the baby is here :) I am currently 38 weeks pregnant, so honestly it could be any day now. I am pretty sure baby is quite comfy in there, I’ll probably go until my due date or maybe a little over?
I wanted to share my Maternity photos with you all. My good friends Tim Pham and Corine Tran took these of us when I was 32 weeks. I will cherish these forever. I am so so grateful to have this special time documented. I rented some furniture to add a little something extra!
I am enjoying my Maternity leave – just relaxing, getting ready for baby and taking it one day at a time. I will return back to work in September and I will be shooting Tuesday/Thursday sessions at 10am and 4pm. I am booking up quickly, so please shoot me an email if you know you are interested in a session :) Of course, I will still be keeping up with my email while on Maternity leave.
So here is yours truly with a baby bump….

Sounds like a treat to me! I am dreaming of a little mini getaway with my hubby too!
Here are some favorites from their shoot:














The Bergeron’s are such an adorable family! I had a great time photographing their new little addition, Miss Ruby as well! She was having fun and laughing away. We took these at Audubon Park and it was a gorgeous afternoon! Here are some favorites from their session:

















I had a great time with this little sweetie last week! Her outfits were just precious for her 1 year shoot. These were taken at Audubon Park, one of my favorite locations for this age! Here are some of my favorites from her shoot:



















Wow! What a beauty! I had so much fun photographing this princess last week. I adore the family shots too! Such a sweet moment with Mom and Dad holding their new addition. I’m happy with the adorable poses we were able to get, here are some of my favorites!!














I’ve been friends with Melanie for almost 4 years now! We met back when I was planning my Wedding, I used her Video services and I LOVE my wedding video! Since then, we’ve remained friends and often lunch and prop shop. She also has a photography business in Covington. I’ve had the pleasure of photographing her family a couple of times and I am obsessed with these new images. I was smiling the whole time while editing. Her girls are so beautiful, we had alot of fun!
Thank you Mel for always being so sweet and for being a wonderful friend to me!! I hope you enjoy these as much as I do :)































Ryan was too cute last week for his 9 month session, I LOVE all the little beanie hats and outfits. We took these over at Rivertown Heritage Park in Kenner. It’s been months since I’ve been able to photograph there since they always put up a ton of lights during Christmas. I love that little area. Here are some favs from our shoot:

















Lot’s of couples & baby bump sessions lately, loving it!! I think it is SO important to get these pictures done before your little one arrives, what a special time :) I can’t wait until I’m showing a little more to get some done of myself soon, too! I’m 15 weeks today!
I had a great time with Jeremy & Jenna last week for their session, they were soo sweet! It was truly a pleasure to photograph them. It was a nice morning, the sun was just starting to peek through the clouds. It wasn’t too cold or warm. They are welcoming a little baby boy soon, look how cute the babies shoes are in the last picture – LOVE!
Here are some favs from the day:


















Last week I photographed this cute couple in City Park! I love the overgrown areas of the park! Congratulations Ben & Stephanie on your Engagement – here are some favs from your session :)


















I had a great time last week photographing Patrick and Brooke’s Maternity session. They were so fun-loving and laid back! The weather that morning was a bit foggy but it made for a really pretty background in the photos. It kind of gives off this romantic feel! I am looking forward to photographing their little one’s newborn session this coming March!
Here are some I loved from their session:




















It’s always fun to photograph Henry & Dixie for their sessions! You can always expect them to be dressed in adorable outfits. We took these at Audubon Park last week and thankfully the rain stayed away. Looking forward to their next session :) Here are some favs from the day:















You may remember Noelle & Stevie’s Engagement Session that I photographed? I was in their Wedding last month and it was tons of fun! Noelle asked me to do a Bridal Session for her as well. I can finally post these now that her Wedding is behind us. It was a pretty day in the Quarter, here are some favorites from her session! Loved the way these came out, totally show her fun and goofy personality!
















I’ve had the pleasure of photographing this little cutie and his adorable family for almost a year! They drive in from Alabama for each session. I will definitely miss seeing them as often as I do. It was beautiful morning in City Park for Giovanni’s 1 Year Shoot! His Mommy made the cutest little background for his smash cake! Loved the banner :) Here are some favs from the day:













I am like a wildflower when it comes to shooting in new locations. My creative juices start to flow when I’m allowed outside of my comfort zone. Thank you Mike & Alicia for having me travel to your beautiful home in Covington, it made for a gorgeous backdrop for these photos! I am in love with every single one, I could post them all! It was so fun seeing you guys again, feels like yesterday we were taking the Engagement session. I am so happy for you two! I know you are both excited for your little Tobi girl to get here :)
Here are some that I LOVED from the day:






















I had a wonderful time photographing the first year of Caroline’s life! And her Mommy is one of the sweetest clients ever! For her one year session, her big brothers jumped in for some pictures and I am glad they did. These are too cute :) I love the affection they have with their little sis. I will be sad not to see this family every 3 months, they were always a pleasure to photograph!
Here are some favs:

















I photographed sweet Jackson during Christmas week since he decided to come early :) He has such a cute little face, here are some favorites from our session:














Here’s a little something new for you! I had the honor of photographing an all natural Waterbirth during Christmas week. My friend Dayna Dyle texted me that morning and asked if I was interested in helping document the birth of her friend’s baby at Touro. Dayna knew that Waterbirth is something that I’ve always been amazed by since finding out I was pregnant. Well even before I was pregnant, I always chatted with my friends about how this is something I am interested in. I understand the amount of dedication and strength it requires to have a natural birth, but it fascinates me. Lately I’ve been reading Hypnobirthing books and watching birth documentaries such as “Business of Being Born” & “Pregnant in America.” I highly recommend watching these if you are prego!
It was a wonderful day, I was at the hospital from about 11:30am til 8:30pm. The room was filled with meditation music and the occasional moans of Amy laboring. What a strong woman!! I could go on and on about how incredible it was to witness this birth, but I hope that my photos will show you a little glimpse at the day. Welcome to the world, Louis! You are just too precious!
Here are some favs from the day. Thank you Carl and Amy for allowing me to post a few from the birth :) If any of you are interested in having me photograph your birth, please email me. This is something I am thinking about offering now.









































Well I guess it’s finally time I told the blog world our wonderful news. My husband Randy and I are having our first little one this coming July. I am 13 weeks pregnant :) If you follow my facebook page, I made an announcement on there around Christmas time… but I figured I would post something here, too. I haven’t blogged here in a couple of weeks because I gave myself some time off over the Holidays to enjoy being with family and friends. I plan to do this every year. Next December I am going to try and do a mini session so I can fit in more clients.
So here are some prego announcement photos that our great friends Beebe & Corine Tran took of us a few weeks back. We are so thankful for these :) We used some on our Christmas card this year! Well I just wanted to share our news and let you know that I’ll resume soon with client images and postings ASAP. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Year!















I’m excited about my new jump drives that just came in! From now on, Jen Amato Photography will be using these cute little custom jump drives to save your photos on! All clients will now receive their high resolution images back on these. Moving towards the future and getting rid of CD’s. Hope you love them as much as I do!!
