Here is the summary in the release form covering illegal printing and duplication of ANY portrait taken by me:

It is illegal and unlawful to scan, copy, or reproduce Jennifer Guiley's work in any manner or medium and punishable by law with fines starting at $150,000. As an artist, I wish to have complete control over the final look of her client's images, and scanned images damage her reputation as a photographer by distorting and devaluing the image quality.
Jennifer Guiley holds the photographic rights to any photos that she has taken.
These photographs may NOT be reproduced any any way.

Use a photo without permission and I will be happy to invoice you for 3-times the regular usage fee. I will gladly assist you in any image needs. Thank you for your cooperation.


I hate to sound so ugly about this, and I really am not trying to be. I just want each of my clients and future clients to understand that this is how I make a living. And when you copy or print my photo you are directly hurting me, and my business and taking away the quality of the portraits that I have worked very hard to create for you.
I hope everybody will respect me not only as an artist but also as a professional and if you have already made a copy, please do away with it, and in the future please refer to me for all of your reproduction needs.
I will also be mailing everybody a copy of this reminder in the mail.


Now, On a more pleasant note, I also wanted to Thank EVERYBODY for a fabulous year!!! I look forward to seeing and working with everybody again in 2009!!

Lots of Love from my family to yours this Holiday Season!

Loving the Moment

Yesterday I had a wonderful shoot with the Woods Family. Simply put, a young beautiful, fun, happy family! Their two beautiful daughters were a blast to work with. But something let me know when the little one was all done taking pictures..... (Photo below) *Bwahahahahahhaha!!!!* If you don't laugh at that, seriously, there is something wrong!

Krystel, Bobby - I hope you too love your pictures!!

The Fisher Boys

This was a unique session. The boys mother, called me and told me she would love to have some photos taken of the boys at Fisher Construction, a greesy, dirty, typical oilfield location. Why? Well because the location is full of possiblilites making their session like no other, and more importantly, because their Grandfather owned the company and the equipment. It was great, the youngest boy, Collin, talked to me plenty about his Grandfather, and how he would sit with him in the crane truck, and work with him. What an awesome memory for a little guy! As always, Wonderful wonderful family to work with! It was a pleasure working with them!! Collin reminded me so much of my son!

Carrol, I hope these photos are what you wanted them to be! Here is a sneek peek! All of your proofs will be ready to view by Friday evening.

The Fullbright Family

What do you get when you put together a 6 year old Princess, A beautifully sweet Mama, A wonderfully wonderful Daddy, and a little 2 year old Queen of the Castle? ..... You get the Fullbright Family!

I got the pleasure of working with, (I should say Playing with) this wonderful family this morning. They are such a warm, and loving family, it really felt as if I had known them forever.

Tatum, is a familure face here locally, and to have her let me get to know her family, and capture their lives, and let me know how much she admired my work, it truly ment alot to me.

Tatum, Brad, here is a sneek-peek of a few of my favorite shots from this morning, and you can view the rest of your portraits on Sunday!

PS Thank you Faith for my beautiful picture! :)

The Bartlett Family

Check out this little Mohawk baby boy and his gorgeous eyes!

It is getting closer and closer to the Holidays, and life is getting more and more busy, but you will not catch me complaining!

This family, of course, such a pleasure of meeting! Little Jake just started sitting up, the same day as our session!

::STOP. BREATHE... JUST SMILE::

It is 11:24am, and since yesterday evening pretty much NOTHING has gone right. I am extremely frustrated. I have messed up 2 clients orders, ordering a wrong size for one client, and not ordering enough for another, my bank was being screwed up yesterday and for some stupid reason was not letting me make any transactions, and now, today, my reorders that I must get in for these clients NOW are lost somewhere in FedEx world.... I am so angy. Should I mention my little princess burned her finger yesterday? Ahhhh!
Okay so I have to stop and breathe.... it will all pass and be just fine.
Just smile! :)
A HUGE apologies if you are waiting on your order! I promise you will receive it VERY soon!

Truly Blessed, Blissful and Greatful

Although I am completely exausted, far behind on work, house work, and losing time for my self, I am Truly Blessed, Blissful and Greatful.
I am Blessed with EVERYTHING and EVERYONE in my life!
I am greatful for my wonderful family, and my amazing clients that I get the pleasure of working with.
Blissful because life could not be any sweeter than it is right now. Even though things go unexpectedly, I have learned to apreciate everything, good and bad, that God has to hand us.

I am still very shocked and saddened by the passing of Bradley Sparks, somebody who I knew since we were young teenagers. My heart aches for his family, and makes me just hold my family even closer to my heart.
Rest In Peace Brad! You put up a very long fight, and you are in a much better place now.

On the business side of things:

This weekend has been very busy, I had the pleasure of working with The Sewell family again, one of my favorite families EVER. Not only because they have refered me to so many of their friends, but they all, including everybody I have gotten to know through them have been the most sincere, wonderful people. I am busy busy busy working to get the birthday party photos finished for everybody who attended the party!

And yesterday evening I met yet another group of kiddos, The Gardenhire family. These kids were way to easy to work with! I am used to little boys putting up a fight when it comes to having their pictures taken, But the oldest boy was like a mini GQ model or something! And his little sister, she tried to be shy, but I really think I got her out of that really quickly. Not to forget the baby, ahhhhh Love love love! This little man was sooo darn cute, and such a happy little guy! And I got to know the kiddos wonderful Mama's as we serched in the dead leaves for about 1/2 an hour looking for lost keys. LoL Amy... I added that part for you! ;)

So Keesha, Amy- Here is a sneak- peak of your precious kiddos! I hope you like them and you will be able to see the rest this evening!

The Glassman Family

I was THRILLED to hear from this family again! I did a shoot for them back earlier this year, and fell in love with their beautiful family the minute I met them. So when she called me and told me her mother would like for me to come to San Angelo and photograph her family I was so happy! It was wonderful to get into a different environment than Odessa or Midland. I want to travel so much with my work and this job made me want to even more.

Here are a few of my personal favorites of Nadines wonderful family:

Mama Taylor

My niece and her cute lil baby bump!

Baby could be here in 4 weeks!
