Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am based out of Los Angeles, California...capturing weddings and families all over the country. Photography and Travel are my passions!
Take some time to poke around the blog. Get to know the people I capture through my lens . They are the Trendsetters. The Thrill-seekers. Rock Stars. Smart People. People who light up the room, just by the simple act of being there. People with new ideas, zest for life! People who want to do things differently. The ones who aren't afraid to show the world exactly who they are. Mostly, these are the people who a have a lot of love in their heart... because at the end of the day - that's what really shines through in a photograph. People who come to me to capture their stories have a lot of SPARKLE, and I love them for that.
If you have questions about photography for your wedding or family, please don't hesitate to give me a ring (917.650.5736) or email at jill@jillianbisinger.com. Cheers!
I wanted to put up a few more images from Meredith and Jeremy’s AWESOME Chicago wedding. This was a classy and classic event shot right in the heart of downtown Chicago at the History Museum. Congratulations you two, as you start your life together as husband and wife. You sure do know how to throw a good party!
Last month I was given an incredible(ly fun) opportunity to shoot a wedding alongside a photographer that I look up to and a friend that I adore, Joy Marie Smallwood. Joy flew me out to Chicago to shoot as her second photographer for the event. So for the first time I was sent in to cover the guys side of things. This is usually Tony’s job – so it was fun for me to see first hand what the vibe is like in the grooms quarters. I
‘m not going to lie – I felt a little intimidated at first. But I didn’t let those guys smell my fear. And you know what? They didn’t sugar-coat things too much just because I was a girl. I had so much fun shooting things from the male perspective, and I want to thank Jeremy and his crew for letting me be involved. Meredith, you got the cream of the crop when you found Jeremy! It’s obvious that you married a perfect gentleman and a kind-hearted guy who absolutely adores you! Stay tuned for part II of this wedding tomorrow.
When I was a little girl, even though I was quite young….I still had a favorite day of the week. No doubt about it, that day was Sunday. Because that was the day that my brother and sisters came to visit. 6 days a week I lived as the only child in a 3 bedroom house, which suited me just fine – but Sunday was the glorious day that the carpet was vacuumed and everybody got dressed early and a special dinner was planned and I got to have 3 older siblings who doted on me as much as we doted on them that day. The way I remember it, all of our good times were centered around the dinner table with Dad. He always kept us fully engaged in laughter and we always looked forward to the next familiar joke he was going to use to make us laugh again. When I was a little girl, there was no day that could compare to Sunday.
When our dad passed away a couple of years back, I was convinced that he was the GLUE that kept our family together. Now that Dad was gone, who was going to make us laugh? It just wasn’t going to happen. But what I’m finding, is that after the time passes and we find that we’re ready to laugh again – it turns out we can laugh at each other! When my brother and I get together, we celebrate the parts of ourselves that are just like DAD. And if there’s one thing that we inherited from him, it’s the ability to laugh at ourselves! That’s what this picture sequence is about to me … my Dad liked to dance and be goofy – so here we are, doin’ it BOB STYLE in the Zany Booth. Love you Big Bro!
