Megan- thanks for always helping me out!  You are gorgeous.

xoxo Jackie

And, if you’re ever in need of some custom guitars, Andy makes them- with his own 2 hands….see for yourself HERE :)

WELCOME McCOY!

Happy Birthday McCoy- auntie Jackie loves you!

The Halleran family were SUPER fun to photograph and hang out with!  They probably thought I was such a dork the entire time trying to get Miles to smile at me/look my way..but hey!  Sometimes that’s just what it takes to get the shot I need to get :) And, thanks Old Town San Diego for providing a great backdrop for our shoot :)  Enjoy!

Hallerans- THANK YOU so much for having me capture your awesome, sweet, gorgeous family thru my camera.  All the best…

Love, Jackie

Dad likes to tease his girl already :)

M&B- Thanks for being patient with me while we were shooting during one of the last Lakers/Celtics games.  I can’t wait to see you 3 altogether as a family!!!  Congratulations again :)

Love, Jackie

Deena and her 2 fantastic were SO much fun to photograph and even more, hang out with.  Those two little ones are so hysterical!

Deena- you’re so stinkin’ cute.

K is turning 5 soon :)

Now, it’s onto Dominic, Tara and their kiddos!  You might remember them from here.

Thank you both families for letting me capture some genuine, fun love.  -Jackie

First up, Phil & Amanda.  It was their anniversary so here they are getting their photos taken with Amanda’s mom and grandma too!

Next, the lovely Vicky of The City Cradle‘s children!!   Little O and L were beyond adorable…yay for twins in the summer!

I’m SOOOO incredibly happy to finally reveal the new look of my business!!!  I feel so blessed by all of the amazing and loving people God brings into my life, of course, my family is always at the top of that list.  But, more on-topic specifics, the Posh Paperie girls, Elizabeth and Karrie, worked their butts off for me, making sure this brand was perfect.  You 2 know how much i love you, so thank you so much for helping this “child” to finally be born ;)  I am soooo proud of my new brand and logo, that I wanted to share with you the pieces that make it look incredible and where you can acquire some of the goods.  First off, my inspiration.  I OBVIOUSLY love whimsy.  I also love mid-century modern design with vintage accent/flair & color (but also have a soft side too :)  So, what better place to be inspired by than the Viceroy palm springs!  I wanted to keep the feather because when I originally started this re-branding process(over a year ago!), I knew I would always love the symbol of the feather..so that stayed.  You can see why here. A new website and newly designed blog are coming right around the corner, but I couldn’t wait any longer and needed to show off the new look :)

Introducing the new brand of Jackie Wonders!!!

A big part of the inspiration is the hotel featured in this post on The Wedding Chicks.  It’s incredible and if  you’re a bride reading this, who hasn’t booked your venue, I would highly consider it because it’s fabulous.  And, I would love to photograph your wedding there ;)

Karrie designed these wonderful cards and I had them printed thru Overnightprints.com.

Rubber Stamps for packaging and business cards and other random stuff.  Stamping my business cards was a labor of love, indeed.  I got them thru Rubberstamps.net

String and twine for accent.  All from Posh Paperie.

My lovely note cards and envelopes :) From Posh Paperie

Thank You notes for print packaging from Posh Paperie.

Letter head for pricing, info, contracts, etc.  One of my favorite pieces: the “Especially For You” mailing labels!  From Posh Paperie

DVD packaging from Jewelboxing.  Karrie made a killer design for these and I love it.

And the final products, altogether!

I hope you enjoy the new look and brand.  Elizabeth and Karrie- you two are incredible :)

And, a few of Ben and Katie alone :)

Ben, Kaite & Avery- thank you so much for having me document your new, sweet family.

Love, Jackie

Ok, just had to get that out.  PHEW.  It’s been almost a whole month since i’ve blogged.  I feel quite a bit out of sorts, but I am SOOO ready to get back to business as usual.. Be prepared for some blog post overloads in the coming weeks!  So, for now, here are some sneak peeks from the past month’s work…

In other exciting news…I’ve decided to offer my first ever mini shoots day!  I’m a tad nervous about this since I’ve never done one before, but i know it will all subside once i see my darling clients!  These shoots are for ANYONE. couples, singles, kids only or families, etc.  It doesn’t matter- come one come all :)

I will be holding mini shoots on TUESDAY, JUNE 15TH, location TBD (but most likely in a grassy/field-like setting).  I’m offering a limited number of slots for the day, so if you’re interested, don’t hesitate!  Each shoot is $150 for up to 4 people, is 20 minutes long, and includes either 3 downloadable artistically edited images OR a $50 print credit.  If you would like to reserve a spot, email me here and I can get you all plugged in.

Because i feel like posts on my blog are naked(along with how i feel!) without images, here’s one of the DIY’s I recently shot for Style Me Pretty this past week…go see how these super cute, super easy goodies are made!

Have a lovely week :)
