These 2 are going to be married next spring. Don’t they look adorable together? They are obviously so in love and with every pose they were just natural with each other.
I think she’s so gorgeous; you can tell he adores her, too.
We borrowed a bird that a lady had in the park. This picture was a first for me…and most definitely for Michael:)
I’m going to break this photo session into 2 parts because we did engagement and family/kid shots. I had only talked to Marian a few times on the phone before we met in person. We met up for our photo shoot that was to take place in downtown Houston and immediately just clicked. My husband had tagged along for a couple of reasons…1) because you can never have enough people in your group for some of the areas we were venturing into and 2) since the kids were at Nana & Papa’s we thought it was a good time to go eat/shop in town after the shoot. We ended up having such a blast with them. It seemed like we had known them forever and we’ve decided that we’re going to hang out again and get all of our kids together. I really hope you like the sneak peek of the family pictures:)
This turned out to be a pretty quick little shoot. Indoor shoots are always harder for me; it’s definitely more of a challenge to keep a toddler in one small set-up area than it is to follow them around and get candid shots so once we had some family shots where every person was looking (hopefully smiling, too) we called it a day. Hope you enjoy the small sneak peek.
If anyone is checking for their sneak peeks I’ll have some more up later today:)
You know, those times when your kids are doing things that challenge you to the core. And if your mother were a fly on the wall she’d have a huge grin because that’s JUST WHAT YOU were like when you were little. This very conversation came up at this photo shoot with one of my favorite families. Little Miss Ana was giving us a run for the money. She’s faster than lightning, wouldn’t give us a smile for anything, and refused to keep a hat on. I think everything in the book was tried and we were all getting a wee bit tired. I remember something about asking Ana’s grandmother if Ana’s mother was like that when she was little. And sure enough, she said that Ana’s mom walked at like 8 (maybe 9 months, can’t remember exactly) and was always on the go, go, go! That’s when it all became clear…paybacks are being given. So at least she comes by it naturally:)
my brain has so many things it wants to type and talk about but unfortunately my body is just too tired. I did actually try and get in a workout today and you know it’s been a while when you sign in with your code and it says to see a fitness coordinator to reactivate your account. Oops, has it been that long? I was so good up until August and then I really became a full-fledged slacker. I’m hoping if I can start a routine again that my energy level can soar and get me through til January gets here. Wish me luck:)
These girls are back from a year ago and wow, has the little one gotten bigger. She’s definitely the boss – or thinks she is – and it was too funny watching her try to run things. Her older sister was sweet as can be trying to help out. I hope you guys enjoy the sneak peek.
Not too long ago we did maternity pics of mom and now this sweet little peanut was able to be the star of the show. She’s quite petite yet packed with power. There were a couple of poses that we wanted to try that a lot of newborns just kind of flop over when we position them…but not Ms. Brooke. She posed like a little pro. Hope you like them guys!
Here’s a sample of an absolutely adorable calendar that would make a wonderful holiday gift. Each month has it’s own 5×7 specifically designed with photos from your photoshoot and fits into a clear desktop 5×7 frame. It’s as easy as flipping through the months. More information and pictures to come this week.
This is my 2nd year to do Kai’s pictures and so it had been a year since I had seen him. He was sooooo sweet. Between his adorable curls, contagious smile, and sweet little nature I was smitten fast. Within just a few minutes he was grabbing my hand wanting me to go places with him. Thanks guys for letting me do your pictures again! Hope you enjoy your sneak peek:)
Here’s his muscles shot!
Here’s Mr. Kai’s idea of a big smile. Isn’t he adorable? When his mouth would go into a big smile his eyes would scrunch closed.
You may recognize these kiddos from a blog post last spring. It’s wonderful to get to work with the same families over and over. The kids were more in to the pictures and had lots of fun with their own poses. We had to fight the new time change and try and get enough pictures in before dark but I think we got them done just in time.
Hope you enjoy!
you go to do a photo shoot and there’s a family of 5 (like my own), the same birth order like my kids (girl,girl,boy) and there’s plenty of chaos and frustration…just like my family! It felt just like home! It didn’t take long for the kids to come out of their shells and that’s when we really had fun. They worked it for the camera, helped with pose ideas, and then helped me out with their friends that had a family photo shoot after theirs. Thanks guys for the fun afternoon, the entertainment, and the Dr. Pepper:) Hope you enjoy your sneak peek.
It’s always fun to work one-on-one with a kiddo. I love trying to capture them being real while we interact. And Ms. Ellison was definitely interacting! She was performing and hands-down gets the award for Most Animated! She’s only weeks away in age from Drew and does a lot of the same things that he does…only she has about a million facial expressions to go along with her animations. Cracked me up! I had a blast hanging with you guys! Hope you enjoy your sneak peek.
