Last weekend I had Rachel over for a Boudoir session. She is getting married in July & I am fortunate enough to be able to photograph her more than once! She’s photographs so easily & her skin is like porcelain. Can you believe this lady has a 13 month old baby!!!
The boudoir session was lots of fun & I tried out a new color for the sheet on the bed – a nice deep plum/purple! Worked great & Rachel like it too!
Here are my favs so far – enjoy!
I’ve registered for the 25th annual ChildRun that takes place on Sunday, June 6, 2010.
I am doing the 5K run & donation collection in support of a family member! She was diagnosed with cancer at a very young age – only 12 years old! – & after 2 years of therapy, we are happy to say that she is along the road to recovery! Her bravery was very commendable & the family is very proud of her for staying strong through what may well be the toughest 2 years of her life!
I have already made my donation & I challenge you all to match or beat my $50 donation! Donate over $100 & receive a FREE session with jmb Photography! All donations over $20 will receive a tax receipt from the BC Children’s Foundation.
You can donate on my personal donation page at – http://bcchf.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=334922&lis=1&kntae334922=FEB6764B467E4BB7AEEABD3240FC8937&supId=292325640
Help me raise $1000!!!!
ChildRun is a great community ‘fun run’ for individuals and groups to exercise their support for sick kids across our province. All proceeds go towards childhood cancer research and programs at BC Children’s Hospital.
I am committed to collecting donations to help kids with cancer. Help me reach my ChildRun fund-raising goal by making a secure online donation.

This past weekend Steph came over to do a Boudoir session for her fiance! They’re getting married in May & I am lucky enough to also be their Wedding Photographer. I can’t wait because they’re both super photogenic.
It was pretty hard to pick only 4 photographs for the sneak peek – they all look so amazing!
Steph, the rest should be done this week!
Our first ever Boudoir Mini Marathon!! So exciting as these as an excellent way to get some very classy & sexy images of yourself at a reduced rate!
You might be wondering what a Boudoir Mini Marathon is…well to sum it up it is a one day extravaganza of studio sessions all done in the Boudoir style & offered in a condensed package & for a reduced rate. It’s a whole lot of fun & excitement!
For this marathon I’ve teamed up with Patti Schulte of Treat Bridal & Bre Teranishi to help make this a glamorous experience for all the ladies. Patti is a professionally trained Hair Stylist & Bre is a professionally trained Make-up Artist – together they complete your look & ensure you look amazingly beautiful in front the camera with their training, experience & eye for styling!
If you’re unfamiliar with Boudoir photography, please take a look at my Gallery, as well as several of my latest Blog posts have been Boudoir Sneak Peeks!
A lot of women shy away from this type of photography because they feel they are not skinny enough or pretty enough – this is not true! Everyone is beautiful & participating in this type of session will help you to appreciate that. You’ll fall in love with how your Boudoir photographs look & how sexy they make you feel! Whether you’re doing this for yourself or for your special someone – you’ll have a renewed sense of self & sexuality once you view yourself in these photographers.
Our Boudoir Mini Marathon will be on April 18th from 8am – 7pm in the Queensborough Landing Area of New Westminster. An appointment must be booked through Jen or Patti in order to participate.
Each session will be 1 hour of photography with Jen with 3 wardrobe changes & you will also receive a 1 hour “make-over” with Patti & Bre prior to your session! Once the session is completed* you will receive a custom designed Softcover book of your favorite images! You’ll be able to see all your edited photographs on your own private online gallery – which you can chose to share with anyone you wish!
Full details on available on the Flier below!
If you have any questions about the session, availability or would like to book your appointment, please contact Jen at info@jmbphotography.ca or 604.315.9942 or contact Patti at 604.530.4911.
We look forward to working with you all!!
Saturday afternoon I had M over for a mini Boudoir session. We got some really amazing shots! I really loved the black & pink – it just looks so amazing!
Her fiance is gonna be very happy to receive this gift for the wedding – they’re getting married in May & I’ll be there photographing that as well.
Enjoy the Sneak Peek – the rest will be ready in a week 
Today I got my new business cards, mini cards & post cards in the mail – a week early! I was so excited when the post man showed up with my box!! hehe
I’ve decided to do my business cards professionally this year, in the past I printed them myself at home & they were still great cards but nothing beats a nice silk finish press printed card! I found this awesome site – www.moo.com – to print them & they are very reasonably priced. I chose to do a wide variety of different cards to basically cover all the aspects of my offered services – weddings, engagements, babies, maternity & (of course) boudoir.
When I opened up my box of goodies I was amazed at the packaging of the products – it’s so damn cute! Don’t you agree? I love the little “YAY!” sticker
The cards are so awesome & I’ve got some kick ass surprises for my 2010 Wedding clients that involve these little cards!
I’ll also now be offering ‘Save The Date’ cards, Birth Announcement cards, ‘Thank You’ cards & much more to come as I get more creative with the uses for these.
Now for some pics!
M was the winner of a Free Boudoir Session in February & we got together this weekend & did her session!
It was a great session & she brought some great outfits too
M is one hot mama & Bride-To-Be!
The winner of the FREE Boudoir Session was Meghan B!
Meghan’s story not only was the winner but she is also a client of mine already! I will be photographing their wedding in July!! This would be a great gift for Devon when he is on the road away from his soon-to-be-wife (& baby girl). I can appreciate the need of a reminder of who loves you & who is waiting for you when you return home!
Congrats Meghan & the rest of the family!! I can’t wait to make the family happy – hehe.
Her story is below for all to read…
So i have multiple reasons why i deserve the free session. The first if for my fiance Devon. We have been together for 4 years now and have a 17 month old. We are getting married in 5 months and things aren’t like they used to be. We don’t have the spice we used to have. It would be nice to get things going a little more before we get married. I’ve been thinking about getting a friend to take some pictures but this would be so much better. I know he would love it. He works so hard for us and I’ve been trying to think of something nice to do for him. Another reason this would be so great for him is he goes away for work a lot and can sometimes be gone for as long as 6 weeks. This could keep him company while he’s gone. Remind him of what he has waiting at home. Then there is the reason for me. I’ve lost the baby weight but things aren’t where they used to be. This could be a great confidence boost or even just something for me. I don’t get to do a lot for myself. I spend all of my time taking care of my family. So pretty much if you pick me you will make my fiance happy, me happy, and that will make my daughter happy. You will make our whole family happy. Please chose me.
For 2010 I have decided to expand my business into the intimate photography known as Boudoir Photography. I have not decided on a name yet – so many good ones running through my mind!
Let’s throw in a giveaway as well….email me your suggestions for a creative name for my Boudoir Photography company. There’s 2 conditions – it must be playful/flirty/suggestive & it must be an available “.ca” domain name (check on godaddy.com).Email me up to 2 suggestions you have. Everyone that enters will receive 10% off their first session & if I use someone’s suggestion they will receive a FREE session.
Boudoir photography is a very fashionable way to create a set of sensual images for women of all ages, shapes, and sizes! Boudoir photographs can be done partly clothed or in lingerie or in the nude – it is dependant on your own comfort level. It has become more than just a passing fad for brides to surprise their future husbands – it the must do addition to any wedding night for 2010! Although in the past there were many negative connotations associated with boudoir photography, in recent years the trend has begun to gain momentum, and the entire look of boudoir photography has begun to change to a more mainstream style of photography.
Use these beautiful, artistic photographs to celebrate special birthdays, body achievements, or as one-of-a-kind gifts for anniversaries or Valentine’s, or as a surprise to partners working abroad.
You don’t have to be a model figure to participate in this new trend – women of all shapes & sizes are beautiful! I also always give my clients a little extra editing – like they do in the magazines.
I have teamed up with Patti Schulte of Treat Bridal & Bre Teranishi to offer these sessions! Each session will include; 2 hour session with multiple outfit changes, professional hair styling by Patti & professional makeup applications by Bre, a 12 month calendar & a press printed album!
Check out my “Boudoir” gallery for some sample images!
I can’t wait to capture the sexy side of all you beautiful women out there!
It’s February 1st!! Holy Moly! Where does time go?
Well seeing as how time flies by so quickly, let’s do a FREE giveaway to help capture time & hold onto it forever!
For the month of February I will be doing a FREE giveaway contest EVERY week on Mondays. So be sure to check back each week for the week’s giveaway.
In light of my recent addition to my company’s services – Boudoir Photography – I will be giving away a FREE Boudoir session.

So how do you enter?? Send me an email with a story about why YOU deserve the FREE session…it has to be true though
