Killion Photography Blog bio picture

Welcome

Hi there! Welcome to the Killion Photography blog. My name is Jackie and I'm a photographer in DFW, TX who specializes in creating lifestyle portraits for families, children, seniors, and couples. This is the place where I get to feature images from some of my latest sessions and share my friends and family with you.

My blog is a more relaxed place and I hope you'll visit often to see what's happening! There's a place to leave comments at the end of each post. I love reading them so I hope you'll share your thoughts before jetting off!

If you're interested in booking a session, or want to see more of my portfolio, just click on the "Website" link above. Thanks for visiting!

“On Holiday…”

Why is it that the Europeans have all these super cool phrases and words that make our everyday statements seem so blah and theirs so glamorous?  Like how when they’re going on vacation or just taking a break from work they say, “I’m going on holiday”.  Somehow saying that I’m taking a break for a bit doesn’t sound nearly as exciting as saying that I’m on holiday.  So that’s what I’ll say for a bit when people ask.  If you call or send me an e-mail, I’ll reply with “I’m sorry, I”m on holiday right now”.  Then you’ll wonder what kinds of fabulous things I’m doing and places I’m going.  Nevermind that I’m probably sitting in my pajamas with a big piece of chocolate divine cake (from my favorite OKC bakery La Baguette) watching romantic comedies while shopping on the internet (like I did tonight).  Maybe it sounds pathetic, but after working like I did this fall, it’s pretty glamorous to me!  I’ll leave you with a few family pics of us and will post some more in a few days, if I can get off my beloved spot in the couch that is.

Me, my sweet husband, and my incredibly adorable little Holden…

One of my favorites of him.  He’s always so happy like this!

{Evan} killion photography, keller senior

I’ve actually really been enjoying all this cold weather lately.  Makes it feel more like Christmas!  But this weekend was another story.  Poor Evan was practically shaking throughout most of her shoot.  We would cover her in puffy coats in between shots for a little warm-up.  I was so worried that we would have to stop and wouldn’t be able to finish, but she stuck with it will the end and we ended up with some amazing images.  You’d never guess that she was freezing to death in most of these!

{The Girls….} killion photography, southlake family

Just a quick post of some very good friends of ours!  Little sis Georgia just completed this family of 3 girls a few weeks ago.  Mom thought it would be fun to do a pic with all dad’s little bunnies in ears!

This is Holden’s best friend and the love of his life!  They are so cute together!

Big sis who can definitely work the camera!

And the newest member of the family at just a few weeks old!

{Katy} killion photography, keller senior

Well, it has been quite a fall this year!  I’ve had the chance to meet so many seniors and it’s been so fun getting to know each and every one of them.  I really do hate it when they come to pick up their pictures, because I feel like I’ll never see them again!  I have just a few more to finish up and then I’m taking a much needed break for the holidays.  I will be taking calls and e-mails, but won’t be shooting any in January.  If you’ve been meaning to call to book your senior session, call quickly.  February and March are quickly getting booked up!

Katy is another one of the seniors I just fell in love with.  Truly kind and so naturally beautiful.  Thanks so much for letting me be a part of your senior year Katy!

{Stephanie} killion photography, keller senior

I just fell in love with Stephanie while photographing her.  She is so comfortable in front of the camera and made my job so easy and fun!  Stephanie you are truly beautiful and I hope you love your senior pictures!

I absolutely love the dreamy effect the slight sun haze gives here….
