Valentine's Day Special!



This year I've decided to do a Valentine's Day themed session for a quick and easy gift for a loved one! It would be great for Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa...anyone!! It's going to be a short and sweet photo shoot! I will have you in and out in less than 20 minutes! If I get 10 or more bookings I will give a $25 discount to everyone! So spread the word!!

* in the examples above it looks like the bottom photo is as large as the one below it but that is not how it works out when printed. The one on the top is 10 inches wider.
Here are the package options-----the prices include the sitting fee:

LOVE package
The example above shows two images, one that says We Love You and LOVE. This would be for the image that spells out LOVE. I can do it with up to 8 people (so two people for each letter at the most) This can also be changed to Mommy or Daddy if you'd rather that than LOVE. If you change it to Mommy or Daddy you'd be able to go up to 10 people.

$125 for a 10x20 mounted float wrap (no frame required)
$95 for a 10x20 metallic print (frame required)

WE LOVE YOU package
The example above shows the addition of two images which make the total photo wider so the cost is slightly higher. This can be changed to I LOVE YOU instead of WE LOVE YOU.

$175 for a 10x30 mounted float wrap (no frame required)
$125 for a 10x20 metallic print (frame required)

Please send me an e mail jenniferbagwellphotography@yahoo.com or call me 707-235-7088 to book an appointment. I will be doing this on two different days. Monday night- the "after school shoot" January 24th at 3:30-5pm and Sunday February 6th from 3pm-5pm I will open up the Sunday schedule to start earlier if I receive enough appointments on that day. Remember EVERYONE gets a $25 discount if I have 10 or more appointments in total!

The Aden Family --- family photography

I donated a Family Session Package to a silent auction fundraiser for the elementary school across the street. I was very lucky to have the Aden Family generously bid on the package. They were such an adorable family! Very photogenic!!
Included in the package was a set of custom designed Christmas Cards so we scheduled the shoot for late November so we would have plenty of time to get the cards designed and in the mail to their friends and family. But it seemed that I was not the only photographer with that bright idea and that beautiful location in mind, I think we spotted 4 photographers by the end of our shoot! I'm confident that we took up the best spots though!!

Santa 2010

So I just had to post a few photos of my babies! They are both growing up so quickly! I swear my son used to let me bribe him with sugar so I could photograph him like crazy but now that he is two and he knows alternative ways to get the candy he isn't so keen on the bargaining for photo ops with Mommy any more! So getting a photo of him and my 6 month old daughter is virtually impossible and when he does decide to do something cute like sit next to her and acknowledge that she exists for something other than a pinching pillow (and I say pillow because her rolls resemble big fluffy pillows) I never have my big camera ready so most of my images of the two of them are with my iPhone. But some how I managed to snap a couple photos of the two of them before we headed out to go see Santa.

The Bonomo Family- family portraits

I'm sure most of you know by now who the Bonomo Family is. But if you don't please read their daughter's blog www.kennedybonomo.blogspot.com They are a very special family to me. We named our daughter, Isabella Kennedy Bagwell, after their daughter Kennedy. Her story and this family's journey is filled with trials and tribulations sandwiched by strength, perseverance, and determination. Kennedy is a fighter, she defines the meaning of "shattering the glass ceiling!" Her parents, Stephanie and Brian are my daily inspiration. They are relentless, even when it seems like every last chip is stacked against them, they stick with it with the most amazing amount of grace. I know in my heart that good things are in their future. Especially since what they deal with everyday is what anyone on the outside would consider a nightmare, they do it with a smile and they are thankful for everyday no matter how tiresome or emotionally draining it is. I'm sincerely thankful to know them.
Stephanie and Brian were born to be parents. They are amazing. So I am thrilled that they have decided to have another baby! Stephanie once told me she always wanted to have another baby, she wanted to see the bond a new baby would have with Kennedy. I am overjoyed to know that Stephanie will get her wish. She tells me she is terrified and unsure of how she will handle it all but I honestly have not one single doubt she will handle it amazingly. I can not wait to see her with her two babies and watch their journey continue!
Here are a few photos I took of the Bonomo Family a few weeks ago while I was down in Southern California for my friend Jill's wedding.

Jill and Adam teaser....

In High School girls were not always nice to me. I was not some tragic cast off or anything but girls were never very nice to me. But when even the most popular girls wanted to shame anyone who was seen with me, there were four girls who didn't care. Jill was one of those girls. We have been friends since our freshman year in High School. Countless football games, Mr. Dubransky's English class, a twisted rendition of Romeo and Juliet where we used WAY too many "likes" and "dudes" and several swigs of Boones Strawberry Hill, oh and who could forget the many excuses to go to Jill's house to check out her hot brothers. Unfortunately we lost touch for a few years after High School but reconnected a couple years ago and I am so happy we did. Thanks Facebook! or was it MySpace? I've lost track??
Jill is and always has been a beautiful, fun, kind-hearted person. She was always the one I joked around with and had lots of fun with. Though 14 years has passed and a million things have changed, nothing about Jill's spirit has changed a bit. As my assistant photographer put it, "she is timeless, she has a timeless beauty about her, such style"
I met Adam almost 2 years ago. Immediately I knew he was a great fit for Jill. He is such a kind man with just the right personality to compliment Jill's. They make such a wonderful team.
I was more than happy to be given the honor of capturing the memories of their "big day" I flew down to Southern California, both kids in tow, and shot the first half of the day and let my assistant shoot the reception while I celebrated along with them as a guest. Now as I have begun to sort through the thousands of images we both captured I couldn't help but pull out a few of my favorites so far. There are many more but I just wanted to post a few as a little teaser....there will be many more to come! along with some old H.S. photos!! Jill, you know I have to post some old photos! I just have to! That is when this whole photography obsession of mine started! They are 35mm so I will have to scan them and they might date me a little bit!
Thank you Jill, for being who you are and for everything you've done for me.

Samantha and Ron

This is going to be a wedding to remember! I already know it! This couple is an authentic Wine Country Couple. They were High School "Sweethearts" they both went to Analy High School so naturally we started their engagement session there. But since times have changed since we were in high school, the school was gated up and locked down so the best we could do was a few shots infront of the school. But to my suprise they took me to a little gem of a spot! It literally made me stop in my tracks and call (ok text) my Dad! It was a wine country version of the Field of Dreams but replace the corn fields with vineyards. I'm not sure what the winery is called but when you drive to the far back, down this dirt road the road opens up and there is an old baseball field that literally is surrounded by vineyards. It was wonderful!
