Jen Cowsar Photography and a Giveaway

We would like to take a moment and introduce you to our new sponsor, Jen Cowsar Photography.
Jen Cowsar Photography specializes in custom photography sessions in the Shelby and Jefferson County area. We offer natural light photography with outdoor sessions on location at Aldridge Botanical Gardens, Downtown Birmingham, your local park or even your own backyard. We can also set up in your home using natural window light, your furniture and your home as a backdrop. For small babies, we travel to your home and will photograph your little one in the comfort of his or her own home.
Catering to newborns and small children up to pre-teens, teenagers and high school seniors, Jen Cowsar loves to capture the whole family as well. Gathering memories and recording them to last a lifetime – that is our goal!

Another added bonus for clients is our commitment to stay affordable so EVERY family can have precious photographic memories.
Sessions are very comfortable and relaxed. Sessions typically last anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours. If we are shooting in your home, we’ll take some time to walk around and get a sense of where the light is best (or we might talk about this before session day). We’ll take some time to get to know your children so they feel comfortable and are having fun. I have a number of fun props, bows, tutus and hats but I am always excited to incorporate your own special items into your pictures. Capturing the unique personality of everyone is paramount for us.
Contest runs through midnight March 13th.

The pictures are great! Thanks for providing the information and giveaway. I think it is great that you do sessions in homes. That is so great because my son loves being at home, and gets upset during photo sessions in strange places.
