Sayler

Jillian Kirby — Mon, 14 May 2012 21:00:19 +0000

I heart this family!! I have gotten to know them over the past two years starting with their first pregnancy with twins. They’ve been in my studio a few times now and I’ve sooo enjoyed watching these two gorgeous boys grow. Now Brody and Steele have welcomed their brand new little sister Sayler to the clan, and I am so lucky to be able to photograph this adorable little girl as well.

Being a redhead myself, I’ve always wanted a redheaded baby, but never got one. So when M brought Sayler into my studio with her glowing red hair (and a ton of it!), I fell in love instantly. She slept so soundly, and the whole session was as smooth as could be.

Thank you for coming in B family! I can’t wait to see you all again soon!

Peanut

This little peanut had no name at the time of her little session. She was such a dear and slept like a dream. I had the wonderful pleasure of photographing big sister when she was newborn as well and I can’t wait to watch these two beauties grow!!

We are so excited to announce our next date for the Baby Vogue Posing Workshops with myself and Stephanie Robin of Stephanie Robin Photography and Design!!

June 9th and 10th in Edmonton, AB

We have a wonderful hostess, Heather Muse of Muse Childhood Photography, who is welcoming us into her gorgeous studio to teach to the wonderful photogs of Edmonton, Calgary and surrounding areas. Our first workshop was in Red Deer so we can’t wait to get back to the area and do it all over again… this time in warm weather!! If you are interested in registering, time is of the essence. We had a waitlist for Edmonton before we even announced the date and we only have 10 seats! You can contact our Studio Manager, Shannon at shannon@jilliankirbybaby.com to get all the info about the workshop and how to register.

Looking forward to seeing you all there in June! This is going to be fun!!

This sweet little dolly slept like a champ for me… it was so much fun photographing her and her gorgeous big sister. Both girls were so cooperative and it was a real treat!

Keep an eye on the blog… there’s some really great announcements and contests coming up soon that you won’t want to miss!!

Baron and Dominic

Two sets of twins in the span of a week!? So much fun! I absolutely LOVE the challenge of trying to keep two babies content and comfy while I pose them and create art for their nursery walls. These little guys were so good for us and just snuggled right into each other every time we placed them close. Mommy and Daddy are clearly smitten and it was so wonderful to spend the morning with them!

Miles and Hazel

This gorgeous set of newborn baby twins came to see me when they were already 6 weeks old! Normally that is a VERY tough age to photograph, and while not impossible, it can be difficult to capture sleepy, serene shots like what you see on my blog with one baby… let alone twins! Not these two! They proved me wrong in every way. Hazel and Miles were sleepy and cooperative and didn’t mind me posing them while they slept… they were an absolute dream to photograph!

Thank you to Sarah of Silver Lamb Studios… once again, she acted as my second pair of hands while posing… Thanks Sarah!

Cash

Don’t you LOVE his name!?! Oh I just love his name… and his little face!! He just had the most sweetest, serene looks. Cash’s daddy went to school with me “back in the day” and it’s been a long time since I’ve seen him (I’m not saying how long!!). It was so great to catch up and hear about what’s been happening in their lives… most importantly the birth of this gorgeous little man. So great to see you both D and D!

Mentoring ~ One-on-One In Studio

Jillian Kirby — Wed, 04 Apr 2012 16:59:30 +0000

Hey all! I just wanted to quickly post a few from my last mentoring session. This amazing woman, Heather Olson, came to me all the way from Georgia and it was such a pleasure spending the day with her! We took the morning to work on posing and had two baby models in the studio helping us out with that. We then broke for lunch and headed in to the afternoon chatting about business, pricing and policies. All in all, the day went fabulously and it was so great to get to know Heather. Here are just a couple images from our morning together. Thank you so much Heather for making the trip!!

Nathan

This session was so much fun! Not only was Nathan a dream baby to work with, his big sister was just a riot! She’s just one of those kiddos that you can help but love… and so is he! So charming and endearing and he barely opened his eyes. Just loved having them in my studio that day!

Neshaun

Jillian Kirby — Wed, 21 Mar 2012 17:32:37 +0000

Little Neshaun is not so little!! This sweet guy was enormous and had the longest fingers and toes I’ve seen in awhile…. quite a feat as his momma was one tiny gal. Putting him in her arms was slighly humorous at how long he was compared to her arm span… but boy did he snuggle in there just perfect. Thanks H family for coming by!
