High Expectations
Let me tell you a story about this image. Being a child and family photographer I take a lot of photos of my kid. So naturally I wanted a great photo of my boys in the Houston TX bluebonnets. Easy right? Well, the kid was cranky. The dog was over stimulated with all of the other […]
Growing up too fast
I wish I knew when I started this business that all those newborn babies that I was photographing would turn into grown up seniors. Why are they all getting so big??? It makes feel so old. I don’t know any of the cool things anymore. Nor any of the little kid tv shows. I am […]
Locations Good and Bad
Can I tell you a secret? There are some locations in the Woodlands, TX that I do not like. Yep. I said it. The light isn’t as predictable, too many people, not safe, etc. Do I take my clients there? Absolutely. If the client insists. But I will definitely suggest other options. I always suggest […]

Baby Plan is Coming to an End
Last night was so fun. Mr. K’s tippy toes (baby plan) was coming to an end. So we met at one of his favorite things to do. To say that he had a blast was an understatement. He has grown so much since I met his parent’s for his maternity session. It has been a […]
