Hi, I'm Jamie, of Burnett Photography. I'm a portrait and wedding photographer in Phoenix, Arizona and Auburn, Alabama. This crazy little page is my blog where I'll share images from portrait sessions, weddings and the occasional random post that I wanted to share.
I can't say I'm a traditional photographer, actually I'm anything but a traditional photographer. I love unique angles, bright colors, funny faces and touching moments. I do take the time to create some classic posed images, but I also encourage & suggest some out of the ordinary moments as well.
Over the past several years of this business journey, I have come to realize that not everyone wants their picture taken.... So that means I have to have some pretty creative ways to get those certain family members to open up and enjoy the experience. I can't give away my secrets, but don't be surprised if you actually have fun while being photographed. Your inner supermodel may even step out to work it for the camera!
You can visit the website by the links above or select from posted categories. Surf around have fun and please contact me about session availability and investment. I offer limited sessions in Alabama and Arizona. For the best availability and travel schedule, please contact us. Bookmark us, come back often and leave us comments... we love reading them!

Having a toddler myself should have prepared me for a fast kiddo, but Mr. Caldwell is possibly the fastest kiddo I have met. Instead of chasing him we decided he could be the winner when he slowed down to take a picture, and guess what… It kind of worked. If only I could be a winner every time I slowed down! Here’s the fast winner Mr. Caldwell and his adorable family!
This year, like many in the past, our US soldiers spend the holidays in the battlefields without loved ones, and some without so much as a card or letter. In 2004 Any Solider Inc. was formed to for those who wanted to help to be able to pick a soldier and send a care package.

When I was in Arizona last weekend I did a quick session with Katie. I wish I would have had more time, becuase she is sooo cute and has the most amazing brown eyes. Here is a quick sneak peek!
I met Kim for the first time on the day of her Senior portrait session, and she is incredibly gorgeous! She is a complete natural in front of the camera and literally could not have taken a bad picture, which makes my job oh so easy! Kim is also one of the fittest high school students that I have EVER met! I’m definitely not kidding when I say she made my job easy! Here’s a few of my favorites… Thanks Kim!
Wowza! You rocked it out!
LOVE ‘EM!!!! You have such an awesome eye! Getting jealous cuz your talent has BLOWN UP and I’m stuck in a rut 
Gorgeous!! My favorites are the one in the apple tree and the chair. 
She is ridiculously gorgeous! Great shots Jamie! Looking at these makes me remember how badly I need to hit the gym. LOL. (As I shove Doritos down my throat)
Beautiful shots and beautiful girl!! #3 is my favorite.
Pardon me…..orange trees! hahaha
Gorgeous shots! #3 is my favorite as well.
Fabulous! She is just breath taking…. you captured her well!
Really like the last 2!
Love them all! The jean pocket shot was my favorite; it looks like an ad for Express! Well done! P.S. She looks sorta like Jennifer Aniston. Beautiful girl!
FANTASTIC!!
What a beautiful young lady. Great pics Jamie. I love the orange tree shot also.
One of the best seniors sessions I’ve seen. You did an amazing, amazing job Jamie! She’s absolutely beautiful. All her classmates will be jealous of her pics.
Excellent session! It is so nice when a client is comfortable right out of the box isnt it!
she looks like jennifer anniston in 1 ,2 and 5! awesome set jamie!!!
good gracious she is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!! Gorgeous shots!
This was the first year both of my boys wanted to be something scary or cool. In the all the years before at least one of them was something fuzzy or had a tail… But alas they are growing up! The days of freckles made with eyeliner have now been replaced with fake blood and plastic masks. :( But I can at least enjoy the loot they bring home!
Have a safe and Happy Halloween!
Here’s a point and shoot of the boys and their candy candy haul!
LOVE THIS! It is soooo cute! Love your blog too. I need a new blog!

Trisha and Dan are one of those couples that you love to hang out with. They are fun, romantic, silly, and totally in love. I was so excited when they chose me to shoot their wedding and engagement session. We shot their Engagement session in Phoenix, Arizona, and there wedding will be in Sedona, AZ! I can’t wait for their big day!
When we talked about their engagement session, we wanted to incorporate all the things that they do together and tell the story of Dan & Trisha. So we started in the bedroom…
I ABSOLUTELY had to include this sign that Trisha’s Dad left on the bedroom door… Apparently there are no camels (especially ones with humps) allowed in the bedroom until after the wedding day! HA!
This is their baby!
Yes, They are a great looking couple!
Dan is a triathlete, so his bike made a special appearance…
Did I mention they LOVE Starbucks…
I told you they were fun!
These are so inspiring and cute! I really love how you incorporated the bike into the photos! These will be so special to them!
Roz
OMG I love this set!
The one’s in the bedroom are awesome! What a great idea! I love it! The colors were spot on and I love the concept!
Love the way you incorporated their lifestyle and everything into their pictures! Definetly bringing it up with all the cool little things that show who they are. (esp. those hot red shoes! hehe) I am sure they will be loving these photographs
That series was SO much fun!!! I love them all!
They are adorable! I love when you can see how much a couple loves each other. They look so comfortable together.
OMG I love that last one! But they are all fabulous. And what a great ring shot using the bike wheel like that
I love these! You really seemed to capture them. I feel like I know them just from these shots! I love the first one and the bike shots.
LOOOOVE these.. the first one is priceless ! Great job capturing their life!
I love your stuff. So creative. Did you do these in Auburn?
I love this whole session- you did an awesome job! That camel sign is too funny- and I love how creative you were witht he bike shots! AWESOME!
J, oh my… that was one of your best shoots I have seen since I started following your blog… I absolutely love the photo through the spokes of the bike, just great. Most of the time the most simple shots turn out to be the best, and although the shot is complex the composition is very simple and pleasing to the eye, I love it. Great shoot.
love these, they show off their personality so well!
What a cute couple! I love the first one… =)
i cannot begin to say how much i LOVE that first image!!! love it! this whole set is awesome! the last shot cracks me up!!! awesome jamie!!!
They must be pretty excited about these, and my oh my, that is a unique ring shot. The first one is still my favorite, I love the sense of humor they share.
Holy cow! You nailed it! Love this shoot! The spoke shot, the ring shots, awesome! And Trisha’s dad is funny!
I LOVE the one on the doorhandle too cute. Great set of images!
Lovely shots, you rock! I love the one on the bed, too cute!
I really like the first one too Jamie!
Lots of intimate moments, great job!
These are so cute I particularly love the first one.
What an AWESOME session Jamie!! Great work. I bet they’re proud of these!!
Looks like a fun shoot! Love the ring shots.

Loved these shots Jamie!
So cute-love the one through the bike spokes-they look like tons of fun!
Oh my gosh! Love the first photo!!! Too cool Jamie!
They look like they were having a ball during this photo shoot Jamie & that has a lot to do with you making them feel comfortable.
Jamie-I love the one of them in bed! That looks like it should be in a magazine or something-so creative and cute!!!
Wonderful work….they look like they had a great time!
This past weekend I packed my bags and headed back to Arizona for some very special sessions. Despite the flight delays and the hassle of traveling in general, Arizona is the place to be. The weather is always great and my clients are possibly some of the most amazing people you will ever meet. Which brings me to the Chamberlain family. They are SOOO much fun and possibly the nicest and most generous families I have ever met. On to some pictures…
I actually forced them to take a “couples” shot. They just didn’t realize it’s because I was planning to slip it over the old one where they have 80’s hair! Then after I thought about it, I realized that the 80’s hair shows that these two have been together for a LONG time and that is an achievement in itself. So we’ll leave the 80’s hair picture not only because it gives me a big smile (and a small giggle), but it also reminds me that these guys have been in love FOREVER!!!
Can you guess who was done with my camera??? I think this is a toddler protest.
Someone is a Daddy’s girl!
I’m back in Arizona shooting a few sessions this weekend, and I took a quick break to edit a couple to post on the blog…
Here’s a sneak peak of Kim’s senior pictures…
And here’s a quick one from The Chamberlain’s family session. Can you guess who didn’t want to participate today???
A couple more sessions today, more to come in a few days!

wow, kim is GORGEOUS. that one shot right there is just lovely.
that looks like something one of my kids would do. not sure which one, it changes based on the day! luckily when they are that small they are cute even when they’re not being cooperative!
I can’t wait to see the rest! I hope you’re having a fun trip.
J, that shot of Kim is just incredible… great job. Can’t help think how it really helps to have such a great model, and she is perfect. Great shot, hope you are enjoying your time back in AZ
The first picture is stunning! And the next one is just too cute.
that second picture is great!… haha… my question is did she “come around” and co-operate at all??
I love this picture! Their personalities are shining through! Especially Halle’s!!
Wow Kim is beautiful…looks kinda like Lauren from The Hills.
I met Graham and Stacy in Columbus, GA this week and I have to say they are an amazing couple. They are expecting their first baby on December 14th, the same day as my youngest sons birthday. They have an amazing connection and I have no doubt they will make amazing parents.
I have a ton of images from their session, and I can’t post some of my favorites due to the fact that I try to keep the blog somewhat family friendly, and their session was very intimate. But I do have some favorites that I can share…
This is one of favorite of them together… If it’s a boy or a girl, he/she will be gorgeous, just look at the parents!
How cute is this couple? Love these images!
J, wow, super shots again… you have been a busy beaver this past few months, that’s great! Keep up the good work. -S
Ooh I love the last two! Beautiful!
I really like the processing on these. Beautiful. Love the name Graham..that is my son’s name.
Absolutely beautiful!!
Stunning and sexy too!
I love these. Great job.
So cute-LOVE the first one!!!!
WOW! talk about warm pictures! great work.
that 3rd image is perfection!
Last weekend I headed to Birmingham to hang out with some great photographers and shoot a super cute family. The Nolens are also photographers, but were behind the camera this time.
Here’s Daddy making faces to get Grayben to laugh… I’m laughing, and I’m not even a baby! :) Sorry guys, I couldn’t resist!
Here’s a behind the scenes shot, talk about paparazzi!
Mommy’s sweet baby boy…
