Merry Christmas from Just Jill Photography!


Merry Christmas Clients and Friends!!


I can hardly believe that Christmas is just a few days away. I'm sitting at my computer looking at the Christmas tree and the snow out the window while my boys are peacefully sleeping.... And I have been reflecting on the past year and all the incredible blessings it has held.


I am about to close in on my first full calendar year of being a mom - the greatest job that I have ever been given. Watching Drew grow and learn is a constant adventure that I am blessed beyond words to witness. Last Christmas, he was just a tiny thing and I remember thinking I could never feel any greater joy at Christmas than I did then. I was wrong.... My joy has grown exponentially this year as I watch Drew point to lights and go "Oooh" and say "Ho, ho" when asked what Santa says. My heart is touched when he goes and picks up baby Jesus from his nativity and, in his own little way, says "Jesus." I love seeing him toddle around in his too cute for words Christmas outfits. I love spending this precious time with him and with his daddy - my sweet husband. I am truly a blessed woman.

I have also been reflecting on this dream of mine to be a photographer - and what this year has done for that dream. That is where all of YOU come in. I cannot thank you enough for trusting me to capture your children, family, relationships, weddings.... What an honor to be a part of your lives. What I love the most about what I do is cultivating relationships with so many wonderful people - many of which have become dear friends. When I look back on the beginning of my journey about 3 and a half years ago, it is amazing to see what God has done. I have grown and learned so much, and my business has started to thrive - especially in this past year. When I am behind the lens of the camera, I feel alive and I LOVE it! I love to capture the moments that make you and your family who you are. I truly feel that God has blessed me with this talent to use for Him, and I am grateful that I get to share that gift with all of you.

2010 is full of exciting things for me and my business, and I can't wait to see it all unfold. I hope you will join me for the journey! May your family have a truly wonderful Christmas. I pray that you all have time to enjoy the presence of your loved ones and of God. Thank you for letting me a part of your lives!

Merry Christmas!!!

Joyfully,
Jill
