"Jaime’s raw talent and keen eye for detail in creating images are both unique and inspiring. She has a way to make everyone in the session feel extremely comfortable, confident, and the laughter has no end. She is a true artist, and I recommend her to anyone wanting photographs that your family will most certainly cherish forever."

"Our family has known Jaime for 15 years.  She was a wonderful dance teacher before she entered this crazy world of photography!  From the beginning, we chose Jaime for our family photographs because she is always thinking outside the box for all her photos!!! Her photos are always different and creative while still capturing our crazy family! Jaime always delivers incredible photos whether it is just our kids or our extended family! TruPhotography definitely has our business and friendship for many years to come!"

a. blackburn

"We loved working with Jaime! She knew exactly how to capture my son’s personality in her photos and we were very pleased with the quality of her work. We particularly liked her creative touch. She made our entire session fun and exciting!"

r. sellers

"Jaime has gone from being my photographer to someone I would consider part of my family.  She has captured the most memorable moments of me and my family's lives…from my wedding, the birth of my baby girl, newborn pictures, and our first family photo.  Not only did Jaime capture the moments through photographs, she also encompassed each emotion in every photo.  She is unique, fun, passionate and all of this is portrayed in her work. I look forward to many more sessions with TruPhotography!!!"

"I am a mother of two rambunctious “all-boy” boys! We have used Jaime’s mini-sessions the past two years for family photos, let me tell you, I do not know what I was thinking using ANYONE ELSE before!  In 15 minutes I had several background changes, different poses of each boy, and a thousand giggles! My kids had hardly any clue they were actually taking photos for Christmas cards :)  Not that I should be shocked, but my plan for “Holiday Card Photos” turned into happy tears and pouring over my images trying to decide which photo to put over my mantle! I get so many compliments on my photos... I cannot believe I was going to skip this year, NEVER AGAIN!"

a. hamilton

“Jaime has been my family’s photographer since her start in 2011.  Her artwork is all over my house.  When someone comes to visit, the reaction is always the same, a gasp of disbelief, then a sincere, almost envious compliment, “That is an AMAZING photograph, WHO took that?” Or, “Oh my gosh, that is STUNNING!  They’re so beautiful!”  I beam with pride and tell my visitors, “If you’re not using Jaime Emfinger for your family’s photos, you’re doing a disservice.”  My advice to the moms, couples, families out there – if you’re wanting a memorable, authentic photography experience, TruPhotography is the BEST out there.  Trust in her.  She KNOWS how to capture the real you – and it will be beautiful!  Year after year, she captures my family’s essence, our vibe, our souls.  I couldn’t possibly ask for more.” 

j. clinton

"Thank you for bringing out feelings and emotions in pictures that can’t be seen in a candid snapshot.  I cannot speak enough about how much fun you are to work with.  You make everyone laugh the entire time they are with you.  Each shoot is quick and painless.  My kids' photos and my maternity photos are something I will treasure forever.  I look forward to many more photo shoots with you."

r. rodriguez

"Words cannot even express the talent that Jaime has been gifted with when it comes to her art.... photography! She has been our go-to photographer for 7 years now and we cannot imagine life's milestones without her. Our children have grown to know her as Aunt Jaime, who takes our pictures and plays in fields with! She has the astounding ability to capture the true character of our family, including all the perfect imperfections and uniqueness of who we are! With our five children, she has the patience, perseverance, and contagious personality to turn our cranky or crazy crew into a giggling, laughing masterpiece! She is simply amazing!"

t. stewart

"My cheer team has been fortunate to work with Jaime for the last 3 seasons, she works so well with 50+ teenage girls! She is professional, efficient, and a BLAST to work with. Her turn around is quick! My team is never patient... and ask to see photos almost immediately :-) and she has all of them back to us within a couple of weeks! Ordering is easy, and when she drops off the images it is ALWAYS organized so that I am able to hand back prints without any questions! (Even if I confuse myself she is a phone call away, and she has me sorted out and back on track).  I hand out her information to all my coaching friends, and love to see what she does for other teams! Jaime with TruPhotography is the best photographer to work with, WITHOUT A DOUBT! "

"There are not enough words to explain the remarkable talent of Jaime. I met Jaime over 7 years ago and her talent is second to none. Over the years, she has captured family moments that I will treasure forever.  She has captured my parent's 40th wedding anniversary, my wedding, my children’s first pictures and my family pictures every year since. My walls could be considered an art gallery for her amazing work. I have never been comfortable having my picture taken but Jaime always put me at ease. She was able to take the most amazing genuine pictures that never felt forced. My siblings and friends have even discovered her amazing talent and now have made her their official photographer. Jaime’s ability to see the beauty in any location, or moment while taking pictures is truly amazing. She truly is an authority in photography and will always be second to none in my book."

s. oldenburg

"In the oversaturated market of “everyone’s a photographer,” it can be hard to decide who to pick to share your life memories with.  Jaime is a true artist, she can look at scenery and lighting and know what will ultimately be just the most gorgeous setting.  Jaime connects clients both big and small and has the amazing ability to put you at ease and make you feel beautiful. Jaime has photographed my life from my engagement, wedding, a boudoir session, the birth of my babies and captured them growing up. I am always in awe of the quality of her photos even when it seems like everyone is melting down. She makes the best of every moment and gives you pictures that just can’t be replicated. I now have the great privilege to call Jaime a friend as she has seen some of the most intimate parts of mine and my family's life.  Jaime has a place in our hearts, that will never be replaced. I would recommend her to anyone!

who i am

photography is something that has always come very organically for me.  after running my own dance studio for eight years, i developed an eye for capturing the best possible movements and artistically interpreting life through my lens.  i feel most at home behind the lens, currently based in the dallas/fort worth metroplex, but love to travel and work across the country.  

photography should happen naturally and not on the big wicker chairs with awkward uncomfortable poses.  finding an ideal location and lighting are key to capturing your unique personality and a genuine feel.  no one person is exactly like another, so why should your photos be?  

to better understand the feel and look you are wanting to convey through your photos, i encourage your suggestions and will often have many questions for you.  i am on a continual quest for originality, new locations, and props that showcase who you are.  my goal is to see your friends and family's hearts smile when they see you in your element.  

i want you to feel comfortable to help capture the best possible images and provide five-star treatment during your session. i can't wait to meet you and share with you the photographs that you've always wanted of you and your loved ones.
