Welcome to my blog! I wanted a way to share some of my favorite photos of the people I hold dearest to my heart (my kiddos), family, my friends and recent photoshoots. Anyone that has know me since a kid can attest to the fact that I've always had a passion for photography. It wasn't until recently, since becoming a stay at home mom, that I've taken the time to learn more about my camera and started stepping out of my comfort zone by photographing people other than family and close friends.

We travel so much and it seems as though we're meeting new, fun and exciting people all the time. I thought this would be a wonderful way to share our experiences and those we meet along the way.

I'm no longer booking sessions or offering services as a freelance photographer but you're welcome to check out my site for ideas or fun! www.PhotographybyJessBohn.com

A HUGE thank you to all of you that trusted in me to capture your special occasion. It was so wonderful meeting all of you and your beautiful families! I've enjoyed every moment! And of course, a gigantic thanks to my amazing family and fabulous friends who encouraged me to follow my heart & aspirations!

Thanks for visiting!

The Next Teen Model







I met Trey's mother a couple months ago at a Bunco party.  She is a riot and I had no doubt her son was just as fun!  As you can see from the pics, he's a natural!  What's really great is not only does he have a fabulous smile, he's got a charming personality to go with it!  I really had an amazing time with him and his mom this evening.  LOTS more pics to follow.  It was hard picking which to post because we captured so many great ones! 

Precious Baby Coral




Baby Coral was born into this world a week ago.    In my opinion, she is a spitting image of her older sister, Marina.  Absolutely precious!  The shoot was eventful to say the least.  Let's just say her parents had a few loads of laundry that piled up just in the couple hours I was there! I had the pleasure of meeting Coral's grandma that flew in all the way from Idaho just to meet her.  I'm so very happy for the Murphy family!

Big K, little k...what begins with K?








Mr. Konnor has certainly been my easiest baby to photograph!  He's always so, so happy and it's hard not to notice those big bright blue eyes and cute little smile!  He just turned 9 months and his mother (and my friend) has captured each month of his life with professional pictures and this month I was the lucky chosen one to do that for them.  It did start to sprinkle on us toward the end, but we certainly aren't complaining - we are loving this rain!

Ella's the Big ONE!






Ella's daddy is also a "Guardian" in the Coast Guard.  Ella just turned one and her mom and I decided it would be fun to do a cake smash.  After about a month of anticipation (and countless months of drought), the day of their shoot was upon us...and so was the rain!  Luckily we had some areas close by to duck for cover.  When it came time to do the cake smash the weather was on our side!  No rain, no harsh sun, no "super" crazy wind (it's always windy in Corpus), and it took no time at all for Ella to dig into her cake the moment she saw it! It was a very fun shoot and great getting to know her mommy a bit too!

Beautiful Brown Eyed Girls






I had the pleasure of meeting Breanna's mom after chatting back and forth through email after a month or so.  Such a sweet and beautiful lady!  She, like me, shares a love for photography and I'm confident that one day soon she'll master her camera!  Since it was our first time meeting, it took a little while for Breanna to warm up to me.  Once she did, it was so fun seeing her play with her mom - such a cute personality and amazing smile!  I can't wait to meet her older sister next for her 6 year pic's!

Mr B Turns 2

















I was very fortunate to have met Ms. Ashley through a mutual friend.  We did two separate photo shoots - one with her 2 yr old, sweet little Benson, in mind and the other included the family.  Although we got some great shots of Benson the first go around, his spunky, upbeat personality really shone through today!  Ashley's mother had a super idea of doing a photo shoot in her room on their bed because that is where Benson typically has so much fun, and boy did he!   It was so great hearing him laugh and smiles like he was the luckiest boy ever!

Marina's Going to be a Big Sister!






Marina's parents are in the Coast Guard and I had the pleasure of serving with them while I was on active duty.  I was honored when her mother asked me to photograph their family. I'm just ecstatic that they are expecting their second child and know that Marina is going to be an amazing big sister!  Marina was certainly a natural in front of the camera and even got a few lessons behind it! Only two more weeks to go for them.  So many beautiful babies being born lately, I love it!!!
