The holidays are coming up, and it’s time to start thinking about your Christmas cards! AND, it’s a perfect opportunity to update that family photo that has been hanging on your wall for the past 3 years. Plus, what else do your parents request for a Christmas gift than a picture of your family (their grandchildren)? Kill three birds with one stone – Jennifer Eliason Photography!
Let me introduce you to Jennifer Eliason (Turcsanski). When looking for a photographer, not only should you judge them by the quality of the photos, but the photographer needs to be personable as well. Jennifer not only qualifies, but excels in both categories! You see my profile picture I use on my “Let’s Get Personal” page? Compliments of Jennifer Eliason photography. Last fall, I contacted her to take some updated pics of the girls and I. All I had to do was mention I wanted an “autumn” background and she coordinated everything else, suggesting the best time of day for the lighting, and found the perfect spot that was convenient for us (not necessarily for her)! As luck would have it, both of my girls’ napping schedules were “off” that day so they were waking from having fallen asleep on the ride to the canyon. Nobody likes waking up from naps!
Needless to say, the first few shots were not so “friendly”. But as you’ll see in the pics below, Jennifer sure warmed them up and made them feel comfortable and playful!



Aside from families, Jennifer also specializes in individual, bridal, and wedding shots. She is simply amazing at what she does! The crisp images, the locations of the shoot, and the way she captures the expressions are all so very impressive!



And the best part . . . are you ready for this?? Jennifer is offering a Giveaway for a Christmas Card package to one of my readers! Just in time for the holidays!

There are so many awesome designs but I’m a simple kind of gal. I like the 5X7 photo card Syle #1.

I have came across her Photography several times, she has an amazing way of caputuring the personalities of each person, that says alot about her passion for what she does. I would love to have her take our family picture and send them to all our family and friends at Christmas, we would choose #5.
