Two Ring Photography | Blog bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

Hey, my name is Jill. I'm a wife, a mom and a photographer. I grew up in a small Lake
Michigan town where I played the drums, golfed and worked at the local
movie theater. I moved away right after high school to study business
and marketing. I didn't know what kind of business i'd have but I
wanted one!

I met my husband a few years later, moved to this crazy
little place called Lansing where I was a groupie for my hubby's band for several years. We're huge supporters of the local band
scene and love anything ROCK. 

Eventually, I realized that I could take my painting and drawing background and convert it into photography which i'd never done before. I took a few years and went to photography school and am crazy amazed at how incredible my business has taken off!

We now have an adorable 2 1/2 year old who
loves coloring, watching Disney movies and going to the park. I stay at
home with her and run this amazing photog business. We're expecting baby girl #2 in November and could not be more happy! I imagine them having tea parties as little girls and growing up being best friends and going on road trips together.

I love sushi and bad reality shows. I love going up north and playing board games. I love good beer (when i'm not pregnant!) and watching live bands. I adore my church community and of course I absolutely LOVE weddings. 

I'm just an easy going gal
living a great life with the help of a loving family and incredible
friends and clients.

Thanks for stopping by!

Wedding Package Pricing

It’s been a while! I’ve been SUPER DUPER busy and trying to catch up on all the sessions, weddings and albums i’ve had to edit and design.
There is SO much going on right now.

After much thought and speaking with another local photographer I have  made the decision to raise my wedding package pricing for 2011 by about 25%. The new pricing will take effect on September 15, 2010. If you book before then you will get the current pricing.

Here are the dates I still have available (all of these weekends include either the Friday, Saturday or Sunday):
All of January, February and March
All of April, Tentative Wedding on April 16
The weekends of May 7, 14, 21, Tentative Weddings on May 14, 20, 27

September 10, 17
October 8, 22, Tentative Wedding on October 15
All of November

*Tentative Weddings dates means I have interested parties but nothing is set in stone yet. They may or may not become available.

Also the new InFrame Magazine will be coming out September 1st and featuring a lot of my pictures! I’m really excited to be part of such a great resource based strictly on the best Michigan Photographers! A big thanks to Kristine Crawford and her staff for working so hard on it. Can’t wait to see it!

SOLD!

Selling our house has been a long time coming. We have tried for several years to sell by owner until we felt the need to try for another baby and then we knew we probably should get an agent and just do it! Even with the agent it took almost a year to sell our home but we did it! Now we are on crunch time to build a house before this new baby comes. Luckily, we are fortunate enough to have a little “apartment” in my in laws home that they have so graciously opened to us for he next few months.
It happened yesterday-CLOSING on the old house! We have built so many memories into that adorable little home and hope the new owner can do the same. This was such a bittersweet moment…

If you need to send me something contact me at: jill@tworingphotography.com to get my new “temp” address. Our new address won’t take in effect until probably early November.

Congrats Karla and Frank: Married 8.7.10

Congrats! You guys had the most beautiful weather and day!!!
