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.

    Renee

Welcome Baby Boy “G”

Little “G” had no intention of sleeping throughout his entire session. But, to my surprise, he didn’t cry one bit. He was checking everything out. He was not acting like a 9 day old! He wanted to make sure he didn’t miss anything and he sure didn’t. But at the end, when we were all done and he was put into his car seat, he was sound to sleep within a few minutes. (That was about the only “normal” thing I expected him to do)

Baby “B” Turns One!

The last time I saw little “B’ was when she was just a tiny little newborn! She is now so grown up and such a doll! She wasn’t shy at all! She gave the most adorable expressions and sweetest smiles!

3 Year Old “M”

“M” was spunky & full of energy – not shy at all! We had great conversations about her little bunny, her little doggie (another stuffed animal she brought in) her pretty shoes & more.

Want a chance to win a Canon PowerShot G11?

As most of you know, I am a part of the Professional Photographers of America (PPA). I have been a full active member for a little over 4 years. The PPA is an awesome organization that not only helps me in continuing to learn my craft, but also is a big part of teaching me business management, laws, etiquette, marketing and more. Well, PPA has an awesome magazine, called “Professional Photographer”. This magazine cannot be bought on any store shelf. Because the PPA is a non-profit group, the magazine is distributed to it’s members only.

They have been holding annual Cover Contests and well, I never entered because of fear and lack of confidence. But, this year I decided to take the plunge and go for it. Granted, I am up against many other professionals, with years of experience & knowledge beyond me, but hey – why not try? If I get any feedback from them, it of course would help me get better and that’s what I am always striving for!

So, I had to choose one image that was representative of what I do. And BOY OH BOY! That was not easy. My specialty is children and that includes a lot of ages. So, I went back and forth, searching, thinking, wondering… and I found an image I think represents me. Most of my favorite images are in a horizontal format, which doesn’t meet requirements for a cover. So I guess I need to start taking more vertical images during sessions (note to self).

Anyway, to see the image and give me a rating, click HERE and then please come back here and tell me what you think of my entry! Just leave a comment on this post! I appreciate any feedback! By the way, you could win a Canon PowerShot G11 by voting!

FYI: ratings are for fun and do not count towards official judging

Mari Perez - Not jealous of you at all on having to pick ONE photo…wow that must of been hard. The photo you chose is beautiful. Renee you are a great photographer & definitly know how to capture the different personalities you work with. You are WONDERFUL!!!

Jennifer - I think this photo totally represents you. You know exactly how to capture the kids innocence and make them look beautiful!! Great job and wonderful pic choice.

Studio 1948, Wedding Photographers Ottawa ON - Good luck Renee, that’s a ridiculously cute image!

Erica - Awww, I love that photo, too! Thanks for feeling my baby represents what you do. I will cross my fingers that you win!

Happy 1st Birthday “A”

Another one of my favorite sessions – a 1st birthday! Little “A” was as comfy as could be in front of the camera! It was so tough to pick a few to show for this sneak peek! I have so many favorites! “A” had a blast taking turns with her brother & her Grandma & Aunt. She was a little shy at first when it came to the cake, but soon she dove in! And she kept teasing me by quickly coming towards me with outstretched fists of icing. (she wanted to share :)) Thanks Mom & Dad for staying on your toes in keeping me FREE of that sugary white stuff!
