MY STORY

First of all, thank you for taking the time to view my page.

Hi, my name is Jaclyn, I have been doing photography since my freshman year in high school. I origionally joined Photo for two reasons. 1. My school did not offer a film class, and 2. My uncle was a successful photographer in New Zeland.

Once I completed my first year, I quickly realized that photography was a passion that I wanted to move foward with in my career path. While in high school, I spent as much time as I could in the school dark room, I entered my photography into local contests, I even took summer classes at the Art Institute awating my graduation. Soon after, I started at my dream art school, but life and the expenses of going to a top art school found its way in between me and my dream of becoming a professional photographer. Even though I left school, that did not stop me from continuing to work on my art. I soon found myself converting to digital photography and photographing for local bands, and local businesses. One of the bands even invited me to go on tour with them before their tour was canceled. I also found myself photographing weddings and doing family pictures in a well known studio.

In 2006 my husband and I had our first child, and my passion for photography was placed on hold... Although you wouldnt think it with all the pictures I have taken of my children over the years! Once we had our third child, I became a stay at home mom, and with the extra time at home, I found myself wanting to get back into photography. Now here I am, a wife and mother of 3 trying to break back into the photo business. I enjoy taking outdoor pictures of families, children, and many others, however I do aspire to have my own studio someday soon. If you have a photography need, please contact me.

Thanks for reading!
