What’s On Your Wall?
August 12, 2011 | Filed Under Family, Home Decor / Wall Art, Products | Leave a Comment
What’s on your wall? What do you do with your Jenni Speed Photography images after the session is over? I love to see how my clients display their photographs that I took for them. I often see my images on display both at parties and in the home in fun, unique ways. So I have decided to start featuring some of them here on the blog. My hope is to inspire all of my clients to get their own images up and share ideas of the great ways to incorporate these artful images into your home decor.
If you would like YOUR home featured, please email me for details.
To showcase my own family portraits, I had them printed onto a canvas collage and hung in the entry of our home. It’s lovely to see my children’s smiling faces on the wall. I love walking by them everyday! The colors are vibrant and the whole collage turned out so well!
I use BayPhoto for my professional printing lab because they are the BEST! Their quality is outstanding, they have great customer service and they use eco friendly printing processes. BayPhoto was recently featured on Greener Photography for their green business practices. All of the professional prints and canvas wraps my clients order through their online gallery, are printed from BayPhoto.
Our family photo was taken by Mark Lee.
Smith Family Reunion: Lanikai Beach
July 30, 2011 | Filed Under Family, Slideshows | Leave a Comment
Family reunions are never quite complete without a few rambunctious children. Fortunately, we had lots of opportunities to play and I think the kids had a pretty good time exploring, jumping and running around. It was super cute to see all of the cousins playing together. I loved the bright, fun colors the whole family wore. Coral, pink and orange was serious eye candy against the deep, turquoise ocean.
A family reunion was a fun and memorable end to their time on Oahu. The wonderful Ann Jex and her amazing family is moving all the way to Maryland, which feels like a world away. After spending many beach days at Lanikai the past couple of years, it was a delight to capture their last memories in Hawaii here.

It’s hard to believe they are already off to the Mainland and moving on to their next adventure. It has been such a treasure to know this amazing family these past 8 years. I absolutely love Kamie and her whole family and will miss them terribly!
Spending one of the last days on Oahu with the Berkey family was so wonderful. We headed out to North Beach for a nice evening session.

WPPI: Mike Larson+Family
June 1, 2011 | Filed Under Baby, Family | Leave a Comment
During Me Ra Koh’s garden party at WPPI, she set up a couple of mini workshops. We were able to photograph, pose and be instructed by some of the industry’s top professional photographers. This one afternoon was the best part of my WPPI Las Vegas experience. It was so unexpected and yet it proved to be a real treasure to have been invited.
Mike Larson is a photographer in San Luis Obispo. He is amazing! Definitely check him out. His wife Rachel is a killer photographer as well. It was such a pleasure to photograph Mike and his darling little family. They have the sweetest little girl who was an absolute angel the whole time.
Such a doll!
Family Portraits Kailua: the Jensens

Dramatic, diverse, beautiful…North Beach was a perfect setting for the gorgeous Jensen family.
Creating a day where the family can make memories and spend an enjoyable time together is just as important to me as taking great pictures. I believe that the experience from start to finish really adds to the feelings and emotions behind the photographs.
By the end of the session, the kids were laughing and splashing in the ocean. The water was so cool and refreshing on such a warm morning. I love a playful ending like that!
I just couldn’t fit all of the photos I loved into the slideshow so below are some more of my favorites.
What a beautiful day!

Oahu Family Reunion: A Time To Celebrate!
April 13, 2011 | Filed Under Family, Slideshows | Leave a Comment
We met on a bright, sunny afternoon at Secret Beach out near the Ko’Olina Resort. I was honored to capture a very special reunion for the Hill Family. In celebration of several birthdays including Great Grandma’s 90th and Grandma’s 65th, they gathered on the island of Oahu to be together for this happy time. What a memorable four generation event!
See below for a slideshow of this fabulous family reunion:
What a beautiful family!!
I love this sweet moment of the cousins together! It’s my fav.
Spring Photos Kailua: The Morse Family
April 9, 2011 | Filed Under Children, Family | Leave a Comment
Before when I’ve had the pleasure of taking photos of the Morse family, Kai has done a great job of running away from me. I love taking candid shots of the boys while chasing them around… and in fact, it’s one of my favorite parts of being a family photographer. Well, imagine my surprise when Kai is suddenly my best friend and cannot get enough of the camera! I mean, he was literally following me around saying, “take a picture of me doing this.” How cool is that?
Thanks for having so much fun taking photos, Kai. It really made my day!

Spring Mini-Sessions: Part ii
I must give a huge THANK YOU to the Jex family who assisted me with their bunnies all day! They did not realize what they were getting themselves into. They were so helpful and amazing! Wow! I can’t say enough how impressed I was with all their hard work.

It was such a treat to see the Sanchez family again. The girls have grown up so much since sweet Penelope’s newborn photo session. They are the cutest little girls…so fun and rambunctious! I could play peek-a-boo around the tree all day with Olivia!
See a slideshow starring the Sanchez family:
The huge waves crashing on shore was a bit frightening, but dad was there to make everything ok.
