Small Business Saturday

Today is small business Saturday - a day to emphasise the importance of working with and buying from small businesses - and as such I want to thank everyone who has booked sessions or weddings with me this year.

It really does mean a lot to my little family and I. <3

I can promise you that every time you buy something from a small business a real person does a little happy dance!

And so, to mark this super day, any full price family session booked today - and today only - will be HALF PRICE!! 

Email me now - jojacksonphotography@gmail.com - to make the most of this very special offer! <3

"Remember, remember, the 5th of November,
Gunpowder, treason and plot..."

Having grown up in York I have no excuse to forget Guy Fawkes' Night. He was born in the city in 1570, in the building next door to where my parents used to work- and haunted it too so the stories say!

Here in Finland there are no bonfires to mark the anniversary of the gunpowder plot but that doesn't mean we can't celebrate the evening with some sparklers in the garden!

Happy Halloween ~ Family photography, Oulu, Finland

I love Halloween! I might be one of my favourite holidays.

As a family we have a few little traditions we always do at this time of year and one of the most fun has to be our annual pumpkin carving!

Anniversary ~ Jo Jackson Photography

Today was the day I know my whole family has been dreading for several months now. Today marks a year since my darling Dad left us.

It's been hard, so hard, and I know the pain never truly goes away when we have to say goodbye to loved ones.
