Curly Cuties | Philadelphia Family Portrait Photographer

jsiever11 — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 14:16:52 +0000

I might be biased, but I’m pretty sure I have the best clients in the Philadelphia area! These two curly cuties are no exception. What a sweet brother and sister pair – hugging, running hand in hand, seriously – enough to bring a tear to your eye.

These guys were full of both energy and smiles; I can’t think of anything more that a photographer could ask for out of two little kids on a brisk Saturday morning.
I present to you: The Smiley Miss S

And, her sweet brother, Big Mr. H

Aren’t they sweet?!

Family portraits: At first, serious. But then they devolve into tickles.

Big Brother, Soulful. I couldn’t resist including both the black and white and the color versions.

A truly beautiful family!

Thanks, you guys are the best!

Another S Family (With Two Boys) | Main Line Family Photographer

My second S Family – no less adorable than the first, just with two boys instead of two girls. And three dogs, all of whom are a part of the family! So, naturally we had to get them in on the portrait action! This sweet family and I met up just before the sunset and we had the most beautiful evening light to capture this family and their love. I think we succeeded!

Tattooed Boy | Philadelphia Child Photographer

This guy loves the camera. Okay, he doesn’t, but the camera really likes him. And so do I! Loving these moody black and whites lately, and who doesn’t love a little boy with a heart tattoo? If only it said “Mom”…

Mommy and Me Sessions | The Perfect Mother’s Day Gift

jsiever11 — Tue, 22 Mar 2011 04:49:30 +0000

What is better than having a photo you love of your child? Nothing, right? If you’re anything like me, you have them all over your house, you feel joy when you get a great one, and you’re probably the one who is always snapping away.

But, that’s also a problem, because it means that you are usually the one behind the camera and thus, there are not many photos you love of you with your kid/s.
I remember on my first Mother’s Day, the only thing I wanted was some photos of me and my son. My husband hired someone as my gift and three years later, that photo is still something I walk past and smile about every single day.

With that in mind, I knew that I wanted to offer that same feeling and that same special gift to all of the mothers out there who need a photo or an updated photo of themselves with their child, so I created the Philadelphia Mommy and Me Sessions just in time for Mother’s Day gift giving (and gift requesting!).

There will be two days of sessions, one in Center City on May 22, 2011 and one in Delaware County on June 4, 2011. The sessions are 20 minutes long and will yield 5-10 proofs from which you can choose. They cost $100 and will include 2 5″x7″ prints. If you want to purchase additional prints, there will be two packages from which you can do so. Session times will run from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m and then again from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.

You will receive a gift certificate to present on Mother’s Day, too.
As always, please feel free to email me at jamie@jamiesieverphotography.com or call me at 484-354-1785 with any questions.

And Then There Were Three | Philadelphia Baby Photographer

jsiever11 — Mon, 29 Nov 2010 20:14:18 +0000

Yesterday, I was invited into the H Family’s warm, cozy, happy home. Older Sister and Big Brother welcomed New Baby Rory less than two weeks ago, and I had the honor of being the one to create his first professional portraits. He was so sweet, and so snuggly and darling. Older Sister loved the lion that I use to try to get older kids to look at me, but the real star of the show for her was a tiny hair clip she immediately named Clippy, who elicited many belly laughs from the sweet girl who was my “assistant”. Big Brother enjoyed grilled cheese sandwiches and the movie “Ratatouille”, but did not feel the same way about my camera. We had to adapt our plan, as sometimes (okay, usually) happens when you are a child photographer – the big kids didn’t really want to be photographed, but I got some adorable shots of them anyway.

This darling mama and daddy have got this three kid thing figured out already. I was in awe of their calm and ease. Their love of each other and their family shone through even the most hectic of moments yesterday, and the five of them were snuggling when I left. Sounds pretty good, doesn’t it?

Hope you enjoy your peek, H Family!
