If only they could stay little

Can you believe how fast kids grow and change? I always get nostalgic when I look back at my daughters' pictures. I'm sure they think that I'm the crazy mom who always has a camera in their faces, but I'm afraid my memory will fade and I don't want to lose all those beautiful memories. Plus, it's always good to have embarrassing photos to share with their friends as they get older. :)

Above is Baby L who also happens to be my nephew! Look at how much he's changed in 3 months! 

I can see clearly now...

See what photo restoration can do? Over the past 3o+ years, the photos on the left have faded and lost their true colors.  Ok, I just started writing and I've already referred to 2 songs. If you have no idea what I'm referring to, ignore me - it's 1am. If you have old or damaged photos you want to restore, contact me for individual pricing. Thanks!

New Product!

JMP is now offering slideshow montages of all the portraits from your session.  The web quality version is included with your portrait session.  A high res DVD can be purchased for only $50. This is all thanks to my techy husband! 

My 2 Models

I usually have to bribe my girls into letting me take photos of them. Who knew that a little 2 year old could negotiate skittles for pictures! For some strange reason, both my girls were posing it up when we went to my nephew's red egg & ginger party. Here are a couple portraits of them showing you their best diva like pose. 

Playdate at the park

What a difference a week makes. We had originally scheduled a session last week but got rained out and today the temp hit 80 degrees! 

Little E was so calm and cooperative - her mom brought her favorite toys to make her comfortable for the photo shoot and she never even needed them. We had a great time walking around Central Park and playing in the sand. Now I know never to wear Crocs when you're shooting pics at a playground. I dumped out enough sand from my shoes to make a sandcastle! 

I love California Weather

I had a mini portrait session with my SIL, BIL and their kids in Emeryville today. The weather was in the high 70's and we had to take advantage of this awesome November day. Here's a sneak peek of the session. Can't wait for our full session in a couple weeks!

JMP Makeover

No, I didn't get a makeover, but my website did! Hope you like the new look and feel. Check it out! 

Little K

Doesn't Little K look like a model? She has the most gorgeous big brown eyes & she was a natural at posing for the camera. She loved running around with her mom's red umbrella which made for some great shots! I could take photos of her all day...

Baby C

I had so much fun taking portraits for Baby C and her family. She is so blessed to have 2 older sisters who adore her.  At only 2 months old, she was already moving around a lot! I was afraid she was going to roll off the baby poser! 

Although it was pouring rain outside, the girls were full of sunshine with warm smiles on their faces. A big Thank You to the Lee's for letting me capture their beautiful family. 

Princess Kiki

A hot pink princess dress transformed an otherwise dreary day into an extraordinary playtime. I love these moments!

My little ham

Here's my little Kiki hamming it up for the camera. She absolutely loves her pink Pottery Barn blanket (thanks gomo!) and you can see how much joy it brings her. Don't ask me why she doesn't have pants on. I have no idea. 

Welcome!

I've finally jumped on the bandwagon and created a blog for Janet Moon Photography. I'm sure I'll be rambling a lot about random things as well but I will try not to bore you too much. Thanks for visiting!
