Josh 2.0 {Brunswick portrait photographer}

It wasn't that long ago that I shared with you a sneak peek into Josh's first headshot session with me.  So it surprised me when he called ready for more!  But as soon as I saw him, I knew why new headshots were a must.  Allow me to proudly introduce the new Josh - a triple threat of an actor, equipped with a fabulous new agent and now 30lbs thinner!  Isn't he a hottie?

Josh sings, dances and acts on stage and screen.  He's no stranger to the Golden Isles theater scene, but I'm sure it'll be hard to keep him here for much longer if his recent resume is any hint of what is on the horizon for him.  Josh has developed a nice S.A.G. portfolio over the last few years (that's Screen Actors' Guild, for you non-actor folk) and is currently filming a horror film titled The Legend of Seven Toe Maggie, due to be released in 2013.

Besides his abundance of talent, did I mention what an awesome person this guy is?  It's always a pleasure to work with Josh on the stage...and anytime I can get him in front of my camera, I'm super happy.  We had a fabulous time during his shoot, and if you know anything about us, then you know we always like to mix work with a little fun.

Here's a sneak peek into Josh's actor headshot session.  Take a good look at him now because soon you'll be able to say, "I knew him when..."

If you've ever had headshots taken, you know it can get a little redundant.  No worries.  Josh threw a few curveballs my way to keep things fun...except I don't think he expected me to "catch" them.  :)

Josh, I adore you.  Best wishes for a kick ass career!  If anyone deserves it...it's YOU!

The Davis Family {Portraits}

I was so excited about meeting this family on Jekyll Island a few days ago for a family portrait session.  They are one busy little family this holiday season, as they are in the process of moving from their current home in Alaska to the home they just bought last week in Miami, Florida!  What a change! 

I was excited to meet their little daughter.  Her momma warned me...I knew it would happen...and it did - I fell in love with little Miss M.  Right from the start, we chatted about her favorite subjects: the Purple People-Eater and hippopotamuses.  (Could I even say those words when I was her age?  I had trouble even saying them during the session!)  Who knew this little red-head with the stunning green eyes was going to be so full of laughter and smiles during our hour and a half session?  She did have one little moment where she snuggled up to Daddy and looked a little sleepy, but she followed that up with running around and playing in the grass.

I loved every minute of this session with this beautiful family!  Check out the images below, and you'll see right away why it ranks as one of my favorite sessions of 2011.

The Lane-Walsh Family {Portraits}

This is the second year I've had the honor of photographing this sweet little family for their Christmas cards.  I am always excited to see what they show up wearing because mom knows just how to pick out the right outfits!  My heart did a little flip when the two little ones jumped out of the car.  Could they seriously be any cuter?

I also had the pleasure of photographing Melody's amazing dad, Buddy, and his wife, Glenda, who are newlyweds!  These two lovebirds are such a fun couple and are deeply in love.  *swoon

I always have a great time with this beautiful family during their sessions and look forward to photographing them in 2012!

Lindsey {Portraits}

It wasn't that long ago that I had the opportunity to photograph Lindsey, husband Josh, and their two four-legged "children."  (That shoot was to die for!)  This time around, Lindsey decided she would go it alone, as she will be using her portraits as a surprise for someone in her family this Christmas.  (Shhh!)

Recently having finished her very first marathon, she showed up to her session looking amazing!  And thankfully, she was up for anything...including lying in the middle of the street...because her images turned out spectacular!

I want to thank Lindsey for supporting my Images for a Cure campaign, in which 100% of her session fee was donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation!  During our session, I learned that her grandma is a breast cancer survivor.  Lindsey's donation will see to it that in the near future all women will be cured of this disease!

 

Golden Isles H.O.G. Holiday Hope Toy Ride

This past Saturday, I had the pleasure of photographing the starting point of the Golden Isles H.O.G Holiday Hope Toy Ride.  For those of you who may not be up-to-date on your lingo, H.O.G. stands for Harley Owners Group.  And what a group it was!  While they may not need too much nudging to ride their Harley, this group came out to support the Holiday Hope Toy Drive, which collects both toy and monetary donations benefiting the Golden Isles Children's Center.  You should have seen the awesome toys donated!  This group also pulled together a monetary donation of $1000+!  It was a beautiful day for a ride, which will help make some special kids' holiday seasons a little brighter.

I want to thank Jenna McNeal and Bill Johnson for sponsoring my sponsorship of this event and for getting me involved in such a worthy cause.  It was my pleasure to photograph this event!

If you'd like to see additional images from this event, please visit the full web gallery at http://photos.jenniferleighphotography.net/Events/Golden-Isles-HOG-Ride.  If for some reason you'd really love a print of any of these images, you can purchase them from the web gallery.  Happy viewing!

Josh & Brian {Portraits}

I was thrilled to have the opportunity to photograph two of my favorite guys, Josh and Brian.  It had been a while since these two have had their photos professionally taken, so I was happy to do the honors!  I wanted this session to be extra special and show off their fun personalities.  When I asked Josh to name off some of their common interests, I got super excited when he mentioned that they, like so many others on Saint Simons Island, enjoy driving their golf cart around town.  I just knew we had to get some images of them in their cart...and they turned out wonderful!  Enjoy the sneak peek below from our session shenanigans!

I want to thank Josh & Brian for joining my Images for a Cure campaign, in which 100% of their session fee was donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.  There WILL be a cure one day soon!
