Let your wild spirit play, love, and shine

Let your wild spirit play, love, and shine
Sometimes we forget what that is and think we need that pose or that perfect smile. But, I promise you your best photo will happen when you let your spirit free and just play, love, or even cry. These raw moments are what makes your story. My passion for photography runs deep and everyone has a story to tell. I want to see your story shine through my photographs.
Maybe it’s that beautiful baby bump, the small delicate baby features that grow so fast, the way your child may hold you tight or look intently into your eyes or maybe it’s that deep undeniable raw love you have for your partner. Or it could be just letting go and letting the chaos win. Letting the kids run free. This my friend, is what I crave to photograph. You can be yourself!
What memories do I want to remember? What story will my kids want to look back at? I’m here to document that beautiful life of yours! The love you have for your people is what makes this passion of mine so fulfilling.
Dig deep and ask yourself…
"Be brave. Be wild. And stay forever hungry for art, love, knowledge, and adventure. THEN LET ME DOCUMENT IT."
I'm Jamie of Jamie Meile Photography, and I specialize in newborn, maternity and family photography in southern, NJ/Philadelphia areas. You will find that my style is bold in colors, I embrace shadows, and I have a passion for what I do. I have been in love with photography my entire life and in 2011 I followed my heart and made it into my career after double majoring in Elementary Education and Writing Arts with honors. I have worked very hard building my business. This is a one woman show! Many of this came naturally to me for I was self taught the first half of my career. When I wanted to dig deeper and specialize I took countless workshops from many of our leading photographers in this world. There is never enough to learn and that is another reason this job is so fun! I love meeting new people and staying educated. It helps me grow!
I have photographed hundreds of family’s memories throughout the years. If you are looking for a session to showcase your family’s love, emotion, playfulness and realness I’m your girl. I will guide you every step of the way.

I have had multiple sessions with Jamie for the last couple of years I cannot say enough good thing about her. The quality that you get with her is outstanding! You will absolutely love and cherish every single photo that she takes. I will continue to have Jamie capture the beautiful memories of my family in the future and I already have a few sessions booked with her for 2023! Woot woot! I would 100% recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much Jamie for your beautiful work :)

Jamie has been there to document my relationship through the years! She has truly given us a gift of capturing a moment in time. She’s captured our love story from the beginning to the day I said yes to marrying my best friend! She has always made jay and I feel comfortable and relaxed! She is not only a wonderful photographer, she is a wonderful human. She makes each clients experience unique and captures the pure love in her photos. I would recommend Jamie over and over again!

I never really get my photo taken- I always feel I smile awkward, never know what to wear, and my hair always looks funny in pictures 🤣 this time around I wanted to get maternity photos done to celebrate what will likely be my last pregnancy, and I’m so thrilled to have chosen Jamie to capture them! Jamie did an incredible job- she was professional, patient, reassuring, and I did not feel pressured at all- in fact, the whole session was fun! Her studio bright & absolutely beautiful, she has lots of beautiful gowns to wear from her client closet so it’s guaranteed you’re gonna look great even if you don’t have an eye for fashion (like myself), and she took pictures at such flattering angles that it actually made my hair look good haha. I highly recommend her for all your lifestyle photography- milestones, family, etc.

There just aren’t enough words to possibly describe how amazing each and every photo that Jamie takes. She has a magical way of finding the perfect angle, lighting and of course expressions through her art. Jamie documented one of the most important life milestones for our family and I couldn't be happier with the final result. Her art captured our personalities and brought them to life. In addition, her client closet in amazing, along with all of the other prep tools that she has available. Jamie instantly made us feel at home and comfortable during our session and the final product really speaks to that. These pictures will forever be a treasure to me, and I can't wait to work with her again!

Jamie is exceptional! As someone who has done photography for 10 years I can honestly say she is the cream of the crop! Jamie takes time to get to know her clients, to intimately plan her sessions with you and even style or lend you items from her client closet. Her images are moving, beautifully created and show so much emotion. She is such a sweet soul and delivers time and time again. You will not regret booking a session with her.

Jamie is an amazing photographer! Our photos turned out so beautiful. It's so hard to choose one favorite photo when all of the photos are stunning!! Her style is so different from any other photographer. Jamie was able to capture our personalities and the love in our family. Thank you Jamie for such great work! Can't wait for our next photoshoot!

Jamie was a pleasure to work with! We learned about her through a friend and saw how gorgeous her work was. We did a fall mini session and lucked out with beautiful weather. All three of my girls are very shy and she got them to loosen up so quickly. I was shocked. My 4 year olds weren’t the most cooperative so I was blown away when we got 94 gorgeous photos in our gallery to choose from. She was patient, sweet and she is beyond talented. We need more wall space for all the photos I want to print!! Highly recommend Jamie!

The years have flown by and Jamie has photographed my son and I for several more sessions. She not only has the eye and patience to capture the most perfect images, but she transforms these images into true art with her editing and attention to detail. The years have flown by since my son was born and I am so happy I am able to capture these moments in time and really that I can create family heirlooms for generations to come. Jamie has such a bright and pure soul and she pours so much of herself into getting to know her clients and building lasting relationships with them. She has endless patience when my son doesn’t want to cooperate and a sleeve full of tricks to still produce the most gorgeous pictures and to get him to just have fun. Jamie also has an incredible client closet and is able to help build outfit options for the whole family. She really listens to what you want for your session and does everything she can to bring your ideas to life. I just will forever be grateful for her friendship, her kindness, and her talent. Thank you, Jamie!

Jamie is such a creative soul. She photographed my empowerment session, my freedom from a terrible relationship and the growth into my own soul. The entire day with her was like a dream.... there truly is power in documenting your personal triumphs after a devastating life event. Jamie understands human emotions and struggles and knows how to make you feel safe and comfortable so you can be open and free during your session. Her artistic eye is amazing, she sees from such unique angles and views, when you get your imagery back from her, you will be so blown away. I could not love my images more.

We have done multiple family sessions with Jamie and could not be more pleased with how the sessions went and the photos turned out. I have three wild children who don’t always love family photo sessions. With Jamie, they have a great time and she captures what seem like impossible photos with how much they move around. Jamie is incredibly well-versed and so talented. She is easy to connect with and extremely responsive. Her photos are always special and she makes every photo shoot experience an enjoyable one. Thank you, Jamie, for all of your work over the years. We look forward to you photographing many more moments ahead!

It's now 2022 and we just had our family session celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary, 15 year dating , and our twins 5th birthday. We wanted it to be super special so we went back to where we had our engagement photos and had the most amazing time. Jamie added her artistic flare and it felt like we just had a friend with us (which she totally is). When it came down to selecting my 20 pictures that were included, I just couldn't, so I got all 130+! Each one tells a story and adds a moment of memory to me.
If you haven't already, go book your next session with her, you will not regret it!!

Where do I start with Jamie !!!!?? I was looking for a photographer who could capture the small details of my family Without being “ posed “ I wanted a natural representation of my family to display in our home. I contacted Jamie after viewing some of her photos online and I couldn’t be more happy with my decision! From the time we booked she went above and beyond, she walked me through picking a location, and even took time out of her day to help me Coordinate outfits for my family of 5. When you first book she will send you a questionnaire, which I thought she did just to see who she was dealing with . Well to my surprise , we showed up to our shoot and she addressed us all by our names , knew even little details about my Children , like the age of our baby .. how my 4 year old is very shy but plays soccer , and how my oldest is a diva , outgoing and a dancer ! She worked with my family and was very patient with us , her ideas and suggestions were ENDLESS ! It is not Easy to keep 3 kids occupied and happy for pictures but.. Jamie did it ! Just a week after our session we had a preview of our session , WHEN I SAY I WAS CRYING !!!! I had actual TEARS ! These photos are EVERYTHING ! An actual DREAM !!!! She truly captured the dynamic of our family and I will be forever grateful !!!!! I cannot wait for our next session ! Thank you Jamie!

I have admired Jaime’s art from a distance for quite some time. I loved the warmth and love that is clear in all her pictures. This year I finally booked a session and was beyond excited. Jamie was perfect, calm, warm, and a professional! By no means did my little boy make it easy on her! It was a day where he did not want his picture taken. My husband and I were just finishing an early workday. With all that going on Jamie made us feel at ease and did not judge us. She is what every family needs an artist with a heart. The days go by fast and I am so glad to capture a moment forever thanks to this talented artist.

I have been delaying writing this review for months, because I just couldn’t put into words how thankful I am that Jamie has been able to document such an important time in my life! Jamie photographed my pregnancy, my birth, fresh 48 hospital pics, and newborn pics. She has such an eye for detail and incredible patience to always capture such beautiful and tender moments. From our first phone conversation, Jamie immediately felt like an old friend. She is so easy to talk to and puts you right at ease when she is behind the camera. She made sure we got to know each other a little better so I would feel totally comfortable having her at my birth - and I was! It was like she was always meant to be there. After my son was born, she was so patient positioning him and swaddling him and capturing him in all of his perfection. I love that we continue to capture his first year with the monthly don’t blink minis that she offers. We’ve also done several mini sessions with Jamie this year and I am so in love with all of the pictures. I know I will always cherish these beautiful images of my son through his first year! Thank you, Jamie for all that you do! I am so happy that our paths have crossed and that we have become friends along the way! This review could never accurately describe how incredible you and your talent truly are. We love you!
