Jill Tiongco Photography

After looking through my phone, I’ve learned that apparently for the past two weeks I’ve been eating lots of good food, working out, snapchatting, working hard, DIVYing, spending time with friends, watching Homeland and One Tree Hill, and doing some DIY projects. Everyone is attached to their phone these days… and I’m guilty of taking […]

my life through my phone pictures. | chicago wedding photographer.

When I made the decision to start a blog for my photography business, I knew I was going to be sharing personal and intimate stories about my life. Not because I think I’m that cool where everyone needs to know what I’m up to – but because I wanted past, present, and future clients to […]

a deeply personal post. | bringing my blog back to its roots.

As 2013 comes down the final 3 months, I can’t help but look back over the entire year in disbelief. I set numerous goals, achieved some of them, failed at others, all the while forgetting that time was passing by. But here we are into October. It’s football season, the leaves will be changing soon, […]

september goals recap and october goal setting.

A few days ago, I received the following message from one of my Facebook Page fans. Hey Jill! I just wanted to compliment you on your photography! All of your images are just beautiful! I was curious how you get such perfect lighting? Do you use speed lights or reflectors, or just get super lucky with available […]

finding the perfect lighting. | fan FAQs.

What the heck happened to summer? August snuck past me while I was busy planning a wedding shower, working weddings, going on photo shoots, bumming at the beach, and yes – I even learned to dive and tread water without a life vest. How old am I? Despite these accomplishments, I fell a little short […]

september goals & august recap.

The months have just been flying by these days. Every month, I write this blog post. And each and every time I am astonished as to how fast 30 (or 31) days goes by. Seriously. It never fails. I blink, and the month is over. This time I blinked and apparently the summer is almost […]

july goals recap. | what i want to do in august.

Working with Momentum Worldwide always promises to be an interesting night. The events are fun, the people are great, and the drinks are always tasty. I first worked with them last year at the Hendrick’s Gin Voyages to the Unusual event at Salvage One – which if you missed it, be sure to keep an […]

hey bartender: the story of the bartender in the era of the craft cocktail. | chicago event photographer

A lot of rainy days sprinkled with sunny days few and far between – and it’s July already. June. What can I say about June. I had high hopes for this month, it being my birthday month and all – and well, let’s just say I learned a lot about myself and made some HUGE […]

june/july goals + a BIG announcement for JT Photog.

Today’s blog is in honor of HBO’s True Blood starting this past Sunday – and because my cat happened to bust out a huge yawn right at the moment I was trying to take a picture of her. This Moment of the Month – my vampire kitty, Snowball 🙂

moment of the month | my precious vampire kitty, snowball.

So, I’m sort of super pumped that June is here because woo-hoo it’s my birthday month! Yes, birthday month. I celebrate all month long. Not really, but definitely at least a week long of spoiling myself 🙂 And with so much coming up this month – including an engagement session, 3-day conference, a bachelorette party in Vegas, 4 […]
