jilliankay.com 1.1

I spent the last few weeks updating my website behind the scenes. It needed just a slightly slicker look, and the addition of my new logo. :) I'm excited to say it's done and I've made the switch over. Of course, I'm sure there will be little snags to work out here and there, so if you notice one, just let me know!

Speaking of letting me know...check out the contact page! There are several new ways to contact me, so I'd love to hear from you!

Carlos and Alicia Got Married!

Saturday afternoon, Carlos and Alicia became Mr & Mrs! I had the emense pleasure of photographing the event. The wedding was held at a beautiful mansion on Mare Island, in a beautiful yard overlooking this pretty garden.

Thanks so much for letting me be a part of your day, everything was just beautiful and wish you all the happiness in the world!

Edit: Oh! I forgot the best part....the slideshow!!

Chris & Bridgit E-Session

E-sessions are so much fun! Engagement sessions are a great chance for me to meet with a bride and groom before the wedding so that we can get to know each other! I get a feel for their style, their comfort level, their personalities....all of which make the wedding day go much much smoother.

Oh...and as an awesome side effect, the couple gets some really sweet photos that show off how in love they are! Bridgit and Chris were no exception...these two are a lot of fun and they both have great smiles!!

Additionally, I just got this new software, called Show-It Web, that allows me to make fun slideshows of the photos! Check out the slideshow here.






Monika

Last Saturday night I got to photograph an awesome model, Monika, in downtown Mountain View with a wonderful photographer named Juliet (http://blog.julietnicole.com/). Monika has these electric blue eyes that are just captivating!! My favorites are below.

In other news, I am on a 3 week school break! Thats great, because the next few weeks are going to be very exciting and busy for Jillian Kay Photography....so no school means I actually get to sleep! :) I'll keep you updated, of course.

Katherine

Friday I had the opportunity to do a fun photoshoot with Katherine! She has absolutely the most amazing green eyes...and freckles! Gotta be jealous of those shoes (well, the ladies at least...you guys can just keep looking at those eyes!)














































Sorry it's taken all week to get these out...school's been rough lately! Everyone hang in there...I'll be posting much more during my 3 week break in August.
