Live and Love Studios is a St. Paul and Minneapolis based on-location studio photography specializing in child, family, and senior portraits, as well as wedding photography. I try to take a more relaxed and casual approach to pictures bringing out the best in your family and/or children.
We had our daughter's one year pictures taken with Jackie in August. We found her through a friend who used her and had amazing results! I had never had good luck with pictures with my baby, so I was nervous. However, it was an amazing experience. The pictures turned out so wonderful, I couldn't have asked for better. Jackie is soooo laid back and we were immediately comfortable. My daughter was smiling, laughing, playing and she never did that for photos at other places before. I would recommend Jackie to anyone. Such a great experience!
Jackie did an amazing job taking photographs of my two little ones. I highly recommend.
We've worked with Jackie consistently for the last 1.5 years and continue to have her back because of her attitude and beautiful pictures! Thanks to Jackie, I have added 100's of family pictures to our albums that are beautiful, playful, and capture us in our natural environment.
We have worked with Jackie Boldt for our engagement, wedding, maternity and also the most recently our sons newborn pics and have been very happy with all of her work. She has a great eye and is very easy to work with.
This is always a fun, speedy photo shoot. It feels like a photo shoot because Jackie gets an amazing amount of pictures taken in a short amount of time. That's key when working with kids, my son is never bored and has fun while we're there! My favorite pictures always end up being the ones you don't know she's taking.
I agonized for months over who to choose to photography my daughter at 12 months. After great reviews on Mamasource and a TON of additional research, I chose Jackie. She was very flexible in setting up the appointment and really understood my needs. The pictures are amazing AMAZING!!! Better than I hoped for! I had planned for every detail (weather, clothing, etc) but hadn't thought my daughter would be SUPER cranky that day. But despite the crankiness (ear infection) we have beautiful pictures of my daughter and our family. I can't wait to go and have more pictures done. The prices are so reasonable, you could actually do it a little more often!
We recently had Jackie take our family's pictures for the first time and we were thrilled with the outcome. Jackie provided a fun and relaxed environment, allowing my children to play while their photos were taken. She knew exactly when they were losing interest in one activity and moved quickly on to new things. I was amazed at the awesome pictures she got working with a UN-napped 16 month old and a very particular 3 year old! Jackie did a wonderful job.
Jackie has done my son's 1 and 2 year pictures, along with a family photo each time. I am so happy with the pictures! They really brought out our son's personality. Jackie is great with kids. She is super patient and managaes to get such amazing shots, even with a super active, busy kid like my 2 year old!
Not only are Jackie's pictures fantastic, but she is great to work with and helps fit photo shoots into my families busy schedule.
I was looking for a photographer to take my 18 month old daughters photos when I came across Jackie Boldt. I really liked her website blog and gallery, I could tell she was talented so I decided to give her a shot. The photos turned out amazing! 18 months is a really hard age, but she did a wonderful job and we ended up with so many great ones, it is hard to choose a favorite. Jackie's talent is evident, but her pricing is very competitive. She posted some pics on her blog within DAYS of the photo shoot, so we got a sneak peek... instant gratification! The online gallery is convienent and I really love that she sent us a DVD with the images on it, so we can choose which photos to print, the sizes, and where we want to print them. We will be using Jackie again, probably soon because I really want some outside pics, but was too impatient to wait for spring. I would highly recommend Jackie Boldt Photography to anyone who wants increadible professional photography for a fair and reasonable price.
I highly recommend Jackie Boldt Photography for family and children's portraits. Jackie has a way with children and a way with the camera! Even when I felt like my kids weren't cooperating, she managed to get amazing shots that I will treasure forever. She has a photo-journalistic style that captures personality instead of just appearance. Plus she is super easy to work with -- you can tell she's a mom!
Jackie is absolutely wonderful. We had family portraits taken with my three year old and my ten month old and the pictures were the best portraits ever! She did it all within an hour and during at least two preschool meltdowns. I couldn't believe she got anything to begin with, but she got so many good shots we could hardly narrow it down. Her prices are very reasonable and the pictures are so natural and capture our family so well that we will never go back to a portrait studio. You are crazy not to use her!
Don't believe me? Check out her website - some of our family pictures are up :)
My son had his Senior pictures taken by Jackie and we are thrilled! Jackie's eye for detail and just the right shot are fantastic! If you've got any questions about the quality of her work, take a look at her blog on her site. She allows the individual to come shining through her work! Her work is breathtaking. She captures MOMENTS in which typical photographers lose sight of . . . those moments of a groom seeing his bride for the first time on their wedding day, or a special moment that would otherwise go unnoticed, those moments not posed with your head tilted just so. Jackie is amazing! If you love the natural, sophisticated wonder that your child/ren bring to life, allow Jackie to capture that. She truly has a gift for photography. Allow her to show you!
