A kid friendly portrait experience
Our family sessions are designed with your children in mind. We schedule up to 90 minutes for the sessions so your family is never rushed. We give enough time for children to warm up to the camera and families to feel relaxed.
Our families get the benefit of working with both Irfan and Julea for their session. Working with two photographers guarantees lots of smiles and attention towards the camera. Our technique is to let kids be kids and we always end up with authentic beautiful portraits
Our family photography sessions are held at a location of your choice throughout Sarasota, Bradenton, and Palmetto, FL

Coquina beach Family Session
Johnson
Little one year old Pen and his beautiful family! Little Pen just thad his vaccines the same day and wasn't feeling to good but we still managed to get great milestone portraits by just letting him adjust and going with the flow. He had a lot of fun with daddy playing airplane with him and putting his toes in the sand.

Emerson Point Family Session
bitar
We always have so much fun at Emerson Point Preserve. We usually start our family session at the beginning of the park and finish at the end towards the beach. We are able to get a lot of variety at Emerson. One of the most favorite spots for the kids is the big tree! They get to have a lot fun climbing and exploring during the session.

Coquina beach is a great spot for kids under 4! We got lucky with a local this evening making giant bubbles for the kids. We started with some traditional portraits and ended with candid bubble fun.

We got to celebrate 9 months with little baby Amelia on the beautiful Anna Maria. Daddy stood behind us most of the session singing to little Amelia and she loved it. You can see her clapping her hands and laughing to her daddy in a lot of her session

"Julea and Irfan shot our first ever photos as a family of 3! We had so much fun with them capturing the best memories. We will cherish our photos forever. They made the process quick and easy for our 3 month old. They had the perfect location in mind for our style. We got our photos back quick and easy. We can’t wait to continue to capture our family with JI Photography. I highly recommend."

Julea and irfan are so welcoming and friendly and did a great job at capturing personalities. The whole process was effortless which photos with kids we know can be challenging. We are so pleased and highly recommend them!"

"Great from start to finish! Having a very curious and energetic 3 year old can be difficult when trying to take family photos. Julea and Irfan were so patient and truly captured some beautiful moments with our family. Highly recommend as every photo was beautiful! Love love love & will totally be using them again."

Anderson Family
Julea and Irfan were absolutely wonderful to work with! They captured some of the most special photos of our newborn son. As a first time Mom I was nervous about doing a photo shoot while I was still recovering myself but Julea and Irfan made it absolutely stress-free. They adapted to my babies’ needs and even provided me with a dress from their client closet which helped take the stress off of trying to find the perfect outfit. Additionally, all of their instructions about how to prepare my baby for the photo shoot helped me feel ready and less anxious about how things would go. It was truly such a special time of getting to bond as a family of three. I can’t recommend J.I. photography enough!

We couldn't be more pleased with our experience with Julia and Irfan. Julea and Irfan were amazing and so very wonderful to work with. We are so over the moon in love with our photos. I just keep looking through them and smiling. They captured our family so perfectly. Will definitely be in touch for another photoshoot to capture our family over the years. It's priceless to capture our family and both Julea and Irfan did such a fantastic job doing so! From beginning to end it was a pleasure to work with them and will always treasure our keepsakes they captured.
