Renee Giugliano Photography bio picture
  • We are Permanently Closed

    After serving Oak Harbor since 2006, I have closed my doors officially. I am still on Whidbey Island, but no longer offering photography services or learning classes on a regular basis. I am only offering Preschool Portraits for Ms. Ashley's Preschool in the spring.

    Past clients may be able to purchase digital images from their past sessions if they are still available on my archive drives. Contact me for more info.

    If you are a photographer inquiring about the possible purchase of my props and/or backdrops, many of my items are listed on Facebook Marketplace. Feel free to contact me for direct links or to inquire about anything you see in y portraits that you are interested in to see if they are available.

    Thank you for trusting me with your family portraits since 2006. I loved working with you all.

Important Updates & Information

 

September is right around the corner. Along with that comes the busiest season of the year for photography. School pictures, fall pictures, holiday pictures plus the normal pregnancies, newborns and birthdays in between.

School starts soon and all 3 of my kids have different school schedules which makes things for me get a little crazier (in my mind). Because of this, my work schedule must go around them. Therefore, I will be making some changes to how I schedule sessions. At this time, no sessions will need to be moved. I will not know one of my child’s school (kindergarten) schedule until September 3rd. Once I receive that, I will make adjustments as needed. You will receive a call only if I need to move your session.

My flexibility is thinning due to childcare restraints. I will do my best to work with your family’s schedule. Due to demand, I must enforce these policies to serve everyone as the best of my ability. Here is other important information you must know about Renee Giugliano Photography as September draws near.

She Made Us All Work

Gorgeous little B is growing up! She hit that age that we all pray will go by quickly, you know… those 2’s. We all waited patiently as she came and went. This is such a normal thing in the studio, so it never bothers me. In fact, I take that time to talk to mom and dad. Little B was here for her newborn session and most recent, her 1st birthday session. And we knew at that time she was not going to be one who wanted to sit still. So, as we talked and waited, B quickly realized she was not the center of attention and came right back. A little bit of candy and my faithful green piggy also helped out. And at the end, when we thought it was all done, daddy revealed that she LOVED lollipops (“suckers” as she called them). So, I popped up and gave it a try. And boy oh boy! She was a different girl! She posed so sweetly (all on her own) and although I am not showing it here, the last image taken of her on our little brown couch is my absolute favorite. I know… I am such a tease, but I’m saving that for mom and dad.

Waiting For Her Little Girl to Arrive

This first time mama is so excited and ready for her little girl to get here! The room is ready, the clothes are ready and well, mama’s body feels ready too. She is due very soon and has had Braxton Hicks contractions and a few other little happenings that had made her think that it was time. But nope, not yet. Mama is keeping busy though. She’s moving & grooving, trying to stay in shape and hopefully give a little kick start to it all. She will be returning for a newborn session, so I am just as anxious as she. 🙂

Sarah Metz - Gorgeous! Love the last one.

Lisa Kelly - The image of this beautiful expectant mummy in the black dress, sigh, what a stunner. So much great variety and gorgeous images.

Erin - Beautiful mama-to-be! Such tasteful & classic images. Well done!!

Sarah Duckworth - She is so gorgeous! I so love the images with the gowns – so beautiful!

Claire - Beautiful images.

katie - Simply stunning. She must be so thrilled with these! What a gorgeous mama, and amazing photographs.

Anna-Karin - Beautiful mama to be!
Exciting time for her and her family. Glad she took the time to have this special time so well documented.

Layne - Great pics! What a nice way to record the days of anticipation. Beautiful!

Lorissa - How sweet. Memories!! My favorite is the last one, the black dress thingy is beautiful!

First Birthday Fun!

It was an exciting day for little W. His grandparents were in town along with his cousin and they all came together to watch him smile & giggle for the camera! Mom wanted these images to really show just as he was at 1 year. So, she skipped a haircut so she could always remember how those gorgeous eyes would peek through that hair! It never seemed to bother him. I don’t think I saw him once wipe it away from his face, not even while eating his cake. He really didn’t make too much of a mess of his cake. Maybe he wanted to save some for later. Mom did take the leftover home, so I am sure he got a few extra bites there too! Happy 1st Birthday again! Thanks for the fun! (A super early sneak peek image was posted a few days ago HERE on my facebook page)

Julie - He is seriously ADORABLE! Look at that hair and those eyes! Wonderful portraits!

Therese Marie - so cute, love the colors

Lisa Kelly - Gosh I love “cake smash” images. They never fail to make me smile like a fool. Love them.

Erin - What a cutie! Love his wild hair. That last one is adorable!!

Claire - He is just adorable! Love all of them.

Sarah Duckworth - Oh – he is so dang cute! And I don’t blame his Mom for capturing him with his long locks before cutting them off – adorable!

Sarah Metz - What a cutie! Looks like he had fun. Great work!

She LOVES Pink!

And it’s a wonderful thing that she was expecting a girl! This new mama-to-be came in about a week before she delivered. She made it clear that she loved color and wanted some bright images! So, that’s exactly what we did! Her favorite color is pink so we had it everywhere! Besides the pink tops, I also had her bring in some pre-pregnancy jeans. We normally have mama’s put them on but not zip them since we pretty much expect them not to fit anyhow. Well, not this mama! She buttoned and zipped them up! (second image) And no stretch marks… not fair, right!? I told her we would have to post those so others could share in my awe and my jealousy! 🙂 One of my favorites of  her is HERE on my facebook page. I posted that as a early sneak peek. Oh and if you are wondering why the lily was added, well, that’s what she named her daughter – Lillee.

 

 

Sarah Metz - Beautiful! What a perfect little bump!

Lisa Kelly - She is the perfect example of a “glowing expectant momma”. How gorgeous. Beautiful images and the one with the lily made me smile.

Erin - Gorgeous! Mama is sure glowing!

Claire - Gorgeous!

Sarah Duckworth - Really cute – you did a great job showing off the pink, and she is gorgeous!
