Jo-Jo Photography Welcomes You
Thank you for visiting, I have a cosy home studio in Abbey Meads, Swindon. I would be honoured to capture the special moments in your family's life. You can count on a friendly, personal service with beautiful images you will treasure forever.
Hello there, my name is Joanna (to my Dad) Jo to my friends or Jo-Jo to all the little ones I have had lots of giggles with over the years. I'm a wife, Mum to two teenage boys, lover of chocolate and babies, hater of ironing and the owner of a crazy cat called "Boo".
For the past ten years I have had the privilege of working alongside the amazing midwives and health care professionals at Great Western Hospital photographing newborns sometimes as young as a few hours old. I am proud
to have photographed in excess of 10,000 babies in Swindon and the surrounding area capturing the most amazing, precious moments. I have handled, settled and posed more newborns than most photographers would dream of in a lifetime and am touched to know that so many of my clients proudly display my beautiful images on their walls.
Creating Jo Jo Photography has allowed me to spend more time with every family and to develop my own soft and cosy style of Imagery. Also, to increase my Portfolio to include not only newborn babies, toddlers, families, cake smashes, christenings and maternity.
My style is soft, creamy earthy tones and primarily anything that looks and feels snuggly for your baby to wear or be wrapped in so I love a bit of soft cashmere, artificial fur or a fluffy blanket. I always handle babies the way I did my own with love and care, being responsive to every whimper allowing parents to relax and really enjoy the experience you have invested in.
My cosy home studio is based in Abbey Meads SN25 I would be pleased to welcome you here and I always have a hot or cold drink for you and the "Good" biscuits for my clients (hidden from the rest of the family).
I love what I do, which is evident in my work, it is an enormous privilege and I would be delighted to hear from you.
