Alter Ego shoot

Yesterday was quite awesome. It was initially supposed to be a formal wear shoot but we turned it into a alter ego shoo. Our two models (Brookelle & Ceaira) we great to work with. We stayed up half the night editing because we were really eager to see some finished shots. What an impressive day!

Queen Bee

Its just wonderful to see young people strive! Brittany is just a treasure. This senior at Jack Britt is an all around beautiful person. Everything from smarts to charm to being a fashionista, this young lady has! And now, she is Queen (Miss Jack Britt. We had the pleasure of photographing her crowning shots! Simply elegant and beautiful results!

Who Knew!

Who would have ever thought that we would have come this far. Coming out of the finance arena a few years ago has given us a whole knew view on the real estate market. We were pleased to start offering Realtor Sessions so that our "house sellers" could have some sharp looking portraits for advertisements and business cards. Fortunately for us, we were able to book a session yesterday that just happened to fall in line with the grand opening of our new location. We are now in the Marketfair Mall (1916 Skibo Rd Ste #301 Fayetteville, NC 28314)!! The grand opening was special and the other two businesses, Ruth Davis's Bridals & Formals and Sandhills Modeling, we buzzing as well. Stop in and checkus out! Back to the story, our real estate broker was a pal and really did well. And yes silly does run in the family!! $25 for a disk of pics for Realtors is unheard of, especially considering the quality, but thats how we do at Jones Photography!

Keyoka & Travis Wedding

What a wonderful wedding that we attended today! The two families that merged were already a family! I couldn't have asked for a nicer group of people to work for! The bride and groom were looking good and the wedding party was stunning as well. I pray many blessings upon their family. Can't wait til proofing time but for now, here is a sneak peak!

More Senior Pix

Hey, we believe that helping senior really helps us!! Again, we just had an incredible shoot today. The weather ended our outside portion sooner than expected but in studio we just knocked it out the park!!!

Look at the baby

Well, we have been hoping for a baby session to surface. Definitely before our lil man becomes a big brother around May/June. We got our wish today. Lilly is just the cutest lil thing!! Give her credit for being all dressed up as an elephant at o'dark thirty!! Isn't she just a cutie pie?!

On Fire Senior Pix

Another amazing senior portrait session is in the books!! Besides a blown car transmission and the editing computer crashing a few hours after, we still managed to have a blessed day with this senior shoot! Ms. Baker can smile and take some good pix. Its gona be hard for mom to choose!!

Senior Pix Heating Up!!

Well, we at Jones Photography have done several senior portrait shoots over the last 2 weeks and they just keep getting better. To cap off a wonderful week in which we found out that another Jones baby will be coming in 9 months or less, we just had another incredible session. Taylor really had it going on today! The sun was out, the wind was blowing, the temperature was good and we all just nailed it! Thanks mama for being a great assistant today!! ;-) Can't wait to edit a few more of these wonderful shots!!

Gospel Play Shoot

We had another opportunity to shoot for a good cause. This will be our second time shooting shots for an upcoming, outstanding gospel play. We won't release any details but the play has been casting and the outcome will be a blessing to area attendees. The crew was a trip and we actually managed to catch a serious shot through all the giggles. All these people can and will be great models in their own right! Watch out for the little guy as well!!!

A Jones-Cooper Wedding

Nothing seems to be more exciting than doing a wedding! Watching a young, loving bride & groom become one is just one of the most touching events on Earth! To make this one even more special, this past weekend was our opportunity to capture our lil sister's wedding. Man, this was truly a blessed event! The ceremony & reception went off without a hitch and we have hundreds of beautiful pics to prove it!! I'm glad our sister and new brother gave us the chance to work some magic this past weekend. Here are a couple pics to wet your whistle. What a blessing!! Here ya go mom :-) Love yal!!

All we can say is WOW!

Yesterday was a good day but today got even better. It started off a tad slow. The rain caused our model shoot to be postponed. :-( However, by the time 2pm hit, the sun was ready for action and so was my Senior!! A beautiful, athletic, now-Senior executed a brillant shoot. What better way to end the day than to capture some outstanding images for someone ready to close out their high school career and prepare for the WORLD!!! All we can say is WOW!!!

Maternity Shoot

We had a wonderful shoot in the studio today! I know its been awhile on the blog but I just had to go on record with this young couple. They were very receptive and the shoot went on without a hitch. I don't get many maternity shoots so I was extra excited. Hope yal like the shot!!

Senior Portrait Fun

Well, I had the pleasure of doing some senior portrait stuff for a church member. I'm telling you, I had a blast! It seemed like only yesterday this young lady was just starting high school! Now she is about to go to college. Man, I'm getting old (in age, not in spirit ;-) ). Anyways, it was a very enjoyable day. The rain didn't come as expected so we made it through the shoot without any bumps in the road!

Bobby Jones Gospel (New Orleans)

Its has certainly be en awhile since we've posted a new thread. We have been extremely busy with the new studio and booking several shoots. Just a few short weeks ago, we were able to do a shoot down in New Orleans, LA. WOW, is all we can say. Thanks to Rick Rhoda and his talented artists, we had the chance to not only do shoots in New Orleans but actually see and meet the admirable Dr. Bobby Jones!! Rick's crew had two solo artists and one group perform at a live recording for Dr. Jones' Saturday show. The atmosphere was so anointed! All the artist did well and the 12 hour drive really wasn't that bad!! We had the chance to tour the town and even got to eat some spectacular food (Thanks Food Network- Dumps, Diners, & Dives). The food at The Joint was better than advertised on TV!! Other than the weird nightlife, N.O. was spectacular!!

Music Studio Shoot

Well, this was a great shoot! We packed up all our studio equipment and headed out to E'town (Elizabethtown, NC) to do a shoot for two great, up & coming gospel singers!! We had a ball in the studio. The shoot went by so smoothly and we even managed to get Frankie (Jones Photography owner) in the music booth to record. WOW!! That is all I can say!! I decided to play around with a sample album cover design template late last night. Looks like album design could be in our immediate future!! Thanks Rick and company!! I can't wait to hear these albums completed! Glory to God!!

Flippin Da Script

We had the extreme pleasure of shooting a wonderful gospel play gown in Conway (Myrtle Beach), SC. It was cool to be back down in the area where we literally started going photography professionally for real. Sue-Ham Entertainment knocked a home run out of the park!!! The play was truly an eye opener and the live band "T.O.S. Band" was superb. Topics from HIV/AIDS, love & marriage, and friendships rang strong throughout the play. Sue and cast were a blessing to all the spectators. We loved the experience and cannot wait to work with this group again.

We will miss you, Whitney

Okay, this is exciting and sad at the same time. My favorite make up artist (Whitney) is spreading her wings by moving to Charlotte. To get her portfolio ready for a bigger market, we did a major photo shoot. We had every concept from wedding gowns to tutus to togas. Also, we got a chance to use our new backdrop. This turned out to be the best shoot ever!!! We will miss ya Whitney. Don't forget to write & visit!
