Kim Jones Photography

A few years ago, I was about to welcome my youngest, Cody, into the world.  I had spent two wonderful years at home alone with my oldest, Caleb, and really cherished those special moments together with him.  Toward the end of my second pregnancy, I found myself saddened at the thought of us no longer being a family of three; it was all I knew and I really liked it!  Of course now life is so much more full and fun with two little guys in our house and there is no way I would have it any different!  My session with the Chatterton family a few weeks ago reminded me of that time in my life.  They are a little family of three at home here in Colorado and adding a little boy to their family within the next few weeks.  During our session, I really wanted to focus on their special little family unit and celebrate their bond just as it is during this time in their lives.  Cami is such a beautiful mommy and they have such a gorgeous family.  I had a hard time narrowing down which photos to show off!  Here are a few of my favorites from our evening shoot.

Who doesn’t love photos of a little one all curled up in a basket or wrapped tightly in a brightly colored wrap?  I love capturing mommies and daddies with their fresh ones; what a special time in life!  Not only do I come to these sessions with experience as a photographer, but also as a mom.  I know how to soothe little ones and get them comfortable during his or her session. I also know how to relate to tired parents or moms that are juggling a new schedule or adjusting to dealing with two little ones instead of one.  And the best part?  You just need to invite me into your home and I’ll do the rest!  I bring all my own props and materials to you.  Have a favorite headband or beanie you want to use?  All the better!  I like to photograph newborns around two weeks old and prefer them au naturale for their session.  Here are some sweet shots from a few recent newborn sessions with baby Lewis, baby Emily & baby Ava.

I am that type of person that likes to have choices so that I can pick and choose what will work best for me; I carry that same attitude over to my photography services!  For example, outside of my standard session fee, clients can choose to buy prints or a disc of images, it’s your choice!  And my wedding clients start by selecting the number of coverage hours they would like (my wedding services start at $1250 for 4 hours) and then can add any number of options to their package: an engagement session, save-the-date cards, wedding invitations, canvas prints, etc.  But by far, my most favorite ala carte option is a custom designed wedding album!  Recently, I put together a 30-page, 10×10 album for previous clients, Jesse & Brittaney Campbell, which included a premium black leather cover, satin UV pages, and customized text throughout.  My flush mount albums have thick lay-flat pages and no middle gutter so that no part of the layout is cut or missing.  Here is a quick look at what a finished album page looks like! What a beautiful keepsake for years to come!
