First Clients

These two. I remember this session way back in 2011. Their family was one of my first clients and they were so sweet to trust me. They loved all of my suggestions of crazy mini sessions each and every year. So in 2011 when I suggested the beach, they were up to drive the 2 […]

Exist in Photos

I take way too many mommy and me photos. I admit it! Dads probably feel left out. But I know that in regular life, the moms take all of the photos and get left out. So when they book my sessions, I take a lot of them. I think that is only fair. I don’t […]

Professional Makeup

It is all about the eyes. Most people say they are the window to your soul. They can tell you a lot about the person. Whether they are happy, sad or sick. So when you are preparing for you portrait session, make sure to have eye drops handy, just in case you have allergy eyes […]

Hello there

Hello there! I’m Kara and this is my whole family (on my side). We are small, but mighty. My brother lives in California with his wife. And my parents live here in The Woodlands, close to me. We are a close family and call each other almost every day. My husband doesn’t understand this. I […]

Covid Restrictions

I have to be honest, there are few things in life I get this excited about. I’m pretty boring. But if you know me pretty well, you know that cupcakes, newborn babies and travel are a few of those things. Lately, during Covid, travel has fallen off of that list. I have become a hermit […]

Emotions of Motherhood

Motherhood. There are so many emotions that come with it. Mine came with lots and lots of anxiety. Some moms are just filled with joy and peace. I wish that for all of my moms! There is no magic answer book. Parents make the perfect choices for their babies. Period. So when you are staying […]

Kara’s Style

If you have been around here for a while, you will notice that I have a particular style. I like my families to be themselves and natural! No posing or cheese here. Just hanging out with the kids, doing what they do best: them. This is where you get natural smiles, laughter and connection. Sometimes […]

Making Beautiful Music

When you meet new clients and they are just as cute as a button. They literally make beautiful music together. Getting to see their fabulous music studio and hearing all about their amazing music school in Market Street. And meeting their puppies! You know I love puppies! I can not wait to show them all […]

Simplicity

Sometimes simplicity is the key. I had the pleasure of meeting this handsome little one this morning. And little he is. He is on his way to being big, but for now, he didn’t fit into much other than my wraps. But he did want to stay awake for about half of his session. So […]

In Bloom

Baby girls are like flowers that are always in bloom. I had the pleasure of meeting this sweet little one today. And even though she was super excited to meet me (ie. stayed awake almost the entire time.) she now has a gallery of almost 80 images to show for her very first professional photo […]
