A long time ago

He finished preschool/started Kindergarten the year I took this.  And this year he is beginning 8th grade.  I remember vividly the many years I cried on the bathroom floor. Thinking I would never have any children. Every miscarriage, beginning of a cycle and lost hope. And then one day… Our prayers were answered with crazy...

Almost Fall

It is almost fall, y’all! And that means we will be able to go outside without melting! Yippee! What are you most excited about? The pumpkin spice everything? The weather? All of the fall activities? I love October.  October has cooler weather, pumpkins, my birthday and candy corn! What do you love about fall? Are you...

Turning 1

This little one was turning one. So his family wanted to do a family session/cake smash combo. Absolutely! We starting with a little play time in his nursery with mom. Reading and snuggling.

Great to be 8

You may recognize this young man. We do his birthday session each year. They are usually themed sessions. We have done cars, construction, trains, boats, etc. This year was Galveston.

13 Years and Lovin’ It

I have been running this business and loving it for close to 13 years.  Now you learn a lot over that period of time. Things like ways to light photos, editing, where to stand, what kids like, types of sessions I like to photograph, etc.  But the one thing I am always surprised at is...

Mr. N Turns 1

Someone is super happy that he has turned 1. He wanted to show off his smile and his beautiful 6 new teeth. Mr. N is a super happy baby. And that he can almost walk.  We had a great morning of bubbles, playing in the pool, fun in his room and we finished our session...

I know you have no idea how much you will cherish the photos of your kids. Not iphone photos; but real professional photos with your whole family.  I had no idea how much my little boys yearly family sessions would mean to me when I scheduled them. But man, I wish I would have taken...
