NEW and EXCITING things!!


WOW! We had quite an exciting weekend and wanted to catch everyone up on what new and exciting things are happening in the Jankord household! (No people, No babies)

As some of you may know, Joe and I have decided to start a photography business focusing on weddings, but not limited to them. We have been playing around with the idea for some time and decided to give it a whirl! Joe has taken a photography class and has read EVERY wedding/photography book ever made in the last couple months! So, we put the word out and with the help of our dear friend Aimee, we had our first official engagement photo shoot with a couple on Saturday in Laguna! I'm not sure how nervous Joe was, but I know I was feeling some sweaty palms. However, between the two of us we made an amazing team! The shoot went better than expected, the couple was so great, we took almost 800 pictures and I'm not sure how they will pick their favorites! I have to say, you never know how working with your significant other will really work out, but Joe and I had our separate roles and we were brilliant! If you are wondering what my job was (as if you couldn't guess) I came up with poses and fun ideas for them to do as well as make them feel comfortable and of course laugh...you know me and my silliness! We actually have another couple we are shooting next Friday and we have two weddings coming up...wowza, let's hope this keeps up! I will let you all know when our website is finished so you can see our work unfold! In the meantime, here are a few pictures of the adorable couple!

Wow! I am so jealous! I got a "nice" camera more than a year ago, I took one class, have read a boatload, but I'm still to scared to do anything!

Good for you guys. You should pick up a camera too!

Geez, I hit the wrong button and posted it and wasn't even done! I'm still trying to figure this darn thing out, I gave up on the pictures! Anyway, it's done now I guess...without the spelling errors :)

I'm planning on getting started with the camera, it really is fun!

These are really great pictures! It looks like the couple was having sooo much fun. I especially like the one where she's putting her finger up to his mouth - he'd better get used to that now!
Good job Joe and Jen!

About Me

My photo
Savannah, Georgia, United States
I am a proud Ohio girl who for the past 4 1/2 years has lived in Irvine, California with my husband and 2 goldendoodles. We recently made a move to the East Coast to Savannah, GA. We are in the process of making this feel like "home" All three of them are the loves of my life! Joe and I started our photography business right after we got married in April and have been loving it! We enjoy meeting new people, hearing their stories and going through their journey with them. Joe and I are excited for a bright future ahead and are enjoying every second of life! We miss our family and friends dearly and hope that by sharing our blog with them makes the distance between us seem a little less vast.
