Kind Words

I was given Jennifer's name by another photographer and I couldn't be more happier!! She first did my maternity shoot (which by the way I have never done any photo shoot before), and not only was she professional and talented, but she made me feel so comfortable. My pictures turned out to be amazing. I then took my daughter at day 13 for her newborn photos and it was so great to see how good she was with my sweet girl. You can tell how much she loves to do what she does!! She is fast, a pro swaddler, so delicate with the babies, and has all the best ideas. She set up a person to come in and do my hair and make up while she did some pictures of my daughter, she gave me time to nurse when needed, and then we did pictures together. She captured the best memories that I will never forget. I was going to get a smaller album for my daughter but when I saw all of the pictures she actually took, I couldn't resist, and went with the bigger album. Thank you Jennifer for bringing my dream to light. Can't wait to do more!! You truly are MAGIC!!

Jenn makes this sweet time with your baby so memorable! The entire process is seamless with no stress. We can never be assured that our baby will be on his/her best behavior, but Jenn just goes with the flow! We had our youngest photographed just recently and I'm so glad that we went through Jenn! We now have pictures to look back on and remember our baby's personality and facial expressions...the absolute best! I highly recommend Jenn!!

Jennifer is a very talented and professional photographer. She has really good ideas and is always open to work with you. I loved the quality of her photos and art work, if you want to have great memories and high quality material please contact her. She is very responsive when you contact her and I really love that she is very patient and nice with children. My 20 month old baby wasn’t in a great mood when her smash cake session was done, but Jenn went beyond that and was very patient; she made the session funny and took advantage of every smile that came out from my baby when she started playing with her and my baby felt comfortable. The key for a great photo session is that you contact a photographer that cares about you, is nice, organized, patient but responsive and very professional 🙂

She is a master of color and composition, whether in her studio with her props and fabrics or out in nature. Beyond that, she is professional, easy to work with, and has a magic touch with kids! Even on an off day for my toddle, she can almost instantaneously elicit a sparkling smile from my son who is generally hesitant to open up to people, and she calmed my baby girl into the most precious poses. Check out her portfolio and then chat with her, you won’t be disappointed!

My experience with Jennifer was absolutely amazing! She made the whole session very comforting and fun and she was very professional and sweet. She is very intelligent on what poses to do and knows exactly what she’s doing. Jennifer definitely exceeded my expectations and I will definitely be doing more business with her in the future & the pictures turned out amazing !!

Talk about going the distance!!! Jennifer travelled for my son’s newborn photos all the way from LA to the Bay. She somehow packed up her studio into her car (it was just a regular sized car) along with her 2 1/2 MONTH old daughter. I don’t know about you but I had a hard time simply going to the grocery store by myself when he was 2 months old. She is a rockstar mom and a photographer that really will do anything for her clients. Now, let’s talk about her work. I was in awe at her ability to calm my son, who was stubbornly awake majority of the session. I sat aside and watched her “shhhsh”, pat and bounce him asleep with extreme patience in between each adorable pose she had him in. I kept looking into my living room, still amazed at how she managed to pack up all of it into her little car. The photos were amazing! When documenting your child’s early moments, you really want someone with the background, skills, experience and someone you can trust with your new little life. She was all that and more. We now have photos we are literally obsessed with to last a lifetime. Thank you Jennifer! A million times over!

Jennifer did an amazing job with my son's newborn photos. She is extremely professional and easy to work with. During the pre-photo session she explained in detail what the full process would look like, which was great because I knew exactly what to expect. Her in-home-studio has tons of supplies to help capture beautiful photos. My husband and I were also able to let her know what type of poses and colors we wanted to use for our photos. She worked great with our son and her experience handling newborns shows. All of our photos came out great. They exceeded our expectations.

Jenn is great with babies and kids! Honestly for us it was easy. We let Jenn have our baby and she took care of everything while we sat around comfortably with our toddler.

We were at the studio for about two hours. Jennifer took shots of my newborn, toddler and family. She was extremely patient with us all and attentive to detail. She used a variey of props and backgrounds for the different photos. Overall, it was a great experience. I would say that Jennifer is great with newborns, has a lot of experience, and takes phenomenal photos. She's very professional and easy-going and wants to ensure the customer is satisfied.

We felt very welcomed and at ease doing our first ever photography session. Jennifer knew exactly how to act with our toddler and newborn and made the whole experience as smooth as it could be. The studio was really easy to find and helped having the sign right outside the door. I thought the studio was quaint and professional and loved all the props we could look at and use. Jennifer definitely knew how to handle a newborn and I really appreciated her asking me to spot the baby whenever she was a few feet away from the baby to get something.

Super easy and fun! No stress! Lovely to work with! Super professional and great with kids!

She did an amazing job with our mini session!! Her prices are very reasonable and the quality is excellent!

You were great with [E] and I felt very comfortable when you were working with her. I loved the photos!

We did our newborn photos with Jennifer at her "in home studio" and the experience couldn't have been better and more pleasant. The atmosphere was perfect for the shoot, tons of props and different backdrops that can be used for the shoot, a sound machine for the baby, heating pads to out under baby for extra comfort and relaxation, changing station, drinks and snacks and much more. Of course, we met before hand to discuss details and pick the color scheme. We showed up on the day of the shoot and the studio was amazing!!! Beautiful set ups, 3 different stations and a hand made set just for our colors that we chose. Jenn went above and beyond for us, treated us so well, and was very professional. Not to mention she is a baby whisperer!! She had all the right tools and skills to keep baby happy and co operating during the shoot! And the end result was fabulous! Every single shot was perfect it was hard to pick your favorite ones! Being a mom of a newborn, having to come in 10 days after the baby is born is not an easy task!! But Jenn made the whole experience very special and easy. It was a very memorable day.

I love all of my son's photos. They are so adorable. Thank you!

I was looking to do a newborn shoot for my second child and didn't want to spend an arm and a leg for photos. We don't like to put photos all over our house but mostly just wanted them for memories and for a keepsake since I had newborn photos done of my first. I called around many places but was not looking to spend $1000+ for packages when I simply only wanted digital files for myself to keep and to maybe print out some photos to get framed. Jennifer was more than accommodating and although she mostly advertises several different packages for her shoots, she offered to customize my "package" and I was able to purchase each item a la carte. We had a pre-session consultation and she helped prepare me for the shoot and told me what to expect. Once we arrived at her in-home studio, we felt right at home and I was so impressed by all the different backdrops, props, and outfits she had. Before she started shooting, she offered us coffee or tea and told my husband and I to just relax on the couch and let her take care of the rest. The temperature was set perfectly in her studio so that the babies feel comfortable and cozy even when they're naked or in just the swaddle. She also had a shusher to help relax the baby and a diaper changing station just in case accidents happen! Everything in her studio is so professional and it made the newborn shoot go by smoothly. When the photos were ready (which was within two weeks!) she emailed us so we could set up a time to have a viewing and choose the images we wanted. The whole process was such a breeze and I would definitely recommend anyone who is looking to do a newborn shoot to go to Jenn! She's amazing!

It's magical. It's an eye popping beautiful piece of art.

We recently visited Jennifer's in her home studio for our daughters newborn session. Since the first time I contact Jennifer asking all sort of question, she has been very professional, nice and helpful. On the day of the photo shoot I want my toddler to have some pictures with her sister but she wasn't being very cooperative and our baby kept being fuzzy but Jennifer was great with both of our girls. She manage for our toddler to take some great pictures and for our newborn to have the perfect photo shoot. We are beyond happy with Jennifer and her great work. We will be keeping her as our new photographer for any future sessions. We've gotten a sneak peak of our newborn pictures and they are GREAT!! We will definitely be contacting Jennifer for our newborns 1st birthday pictures..

Wow, I love these pictures, I look at the one of the twins and just wonder what they are dreaming about.

I had an amazing experience with Jennifer. I felt very comfortable with her handling my baby and the photos were fantastic! Not only was it convenient for me but her studio space also felt like home. She was very creative with the backdrop and the setup. I would totally recommend Jennifer McNeil Photography to anyone.

She made us laugh and we felt like we were hanging out with a friend. She’s the kind of person you would want to go for coffee when the shoot is done just to chat.

Jennifer took beautiful maternity photos and has taken photos of both my children. They love her! She has creative ideas and can set up good situations to get natural expressions from my kids.

She is very good with kids, so my son liked her very quickly, which is super helpful when trying to photograph little kids.
