I LOVE MY SENIORS (the high school kind...)!!!!!

Leah's session was so much fun! We were out in the field and photographing at 6:30 in the morning (as you can tell from the sunrise and fog!) We had a blast together! Leah is so talented (and very smart!)...she's heading off to college half way through her senior year! Leah- I'm so proud of you...you are one beautiful girl (on the inside and out!) Enjoy her slideshow...

Custom Christmas Card Samples

Here are a few samples from this year's line of Custom Christmas cards I have designed. (I will be adding a few more soon). They will all be wrapped in a coordinating color paper and tied with a ribbon (or jewel) and stuffed into the envelope- so all you have to do is address and stamp them!

The Christmas Season is Here!!!!

Yes, it is hard to believe that the Christmas Season is quickly approaching (Every year it seems to get here faster and faster)...I almost feel like I should leave my Christmas tree up all year! This has been an interesting year for our family and friends. In April, Mark (my husband) and I lost one of our best friends in a tragic accident, and after attending several other funerals around the same time, it became very heavy on my heart just how important having family portraits are. There are moments in our lives that we are so busy and we find the time flies by...and even though we think we will remember those small moments, we often do not. Having a quality family portrait is priceless because when tragedies occur, it is comforting to have a small reminder of that persons personality. There is no better time to have your family's portrait taken than now. Celebrate life, Celebrate the small moments and Celebrate the reason of this joyous season! Life goes fast... how will you remember it?

5 Months Overdue!

Wow- so yes- it has been 5 months since I have posted last! (My new years resolution of posting after every session- obviously has not gone as planned!) SO sorry!
As you might know- Senior season is in full swing! Many seniors feel they should wait until the spring to have their portraits taken- BUT- the fall is a great time because not only are you avoiding the mad dash towards the end of the year, but you also get the chance to enjoy your portraits for your ENTIRE senior year...so call now to book your senior session!
Here are a few videos from the past couple of weeks:

Shannon F. is one of our 2010 Senior Model Representatives. She is so gorgeous and I had SO much fun photographing her and getting to know her. As you can see- she is incredibly talented at dance!



Tiffany G. is another on of our 2010 Senior Model Representatives. She wanted a more modern, urban style session. We had so much fun walking around town and choosing locations. Tiffany is phenomenally gorgeous (as you can see)! I really enjoyed getting to know her and her mom!



Here's a personal note: As you might now- May was an awesome time for our family! My sister (Christine) gave birth to a sweet baby girl named Brooklyn. She is one HUGE slice of heaven! I always joke that I have photographed her sweet little skin off! She is so precious and I feel so blessed that I have been able to document each of her milestones as she continues to grow so quickly! Here is a video of her 3 month portraits (and a few family portraits with Christine and Richard at the end!)



Also- My best friend and I had been talking for months that we wanted to go have a photoshoot...so we finally made it happen and here are the portraits we took:



I know that was a quick snip-it of goodness- But I do still have lots more to add over the next couple of posts!!

Are you ready for total sensory overload? Here is updates GALORE!

Hey Ya'll! So YES, I am AWFUL! I've had so much on my plate the past five (or six) months that I haven't blogged once! (SO SORRY!) So I am going to devote my next couple of hours to catching you up to speed! (It might have to even start with some Christmas portraits...how sad is that?!)
The Elders:
Here are a few portraits from the Elders' session! These two little girls are two of my most favorite little girls ever! I love spending time with them! They both have huge personalities are are so much fun to photograph!

Natalie and Steven's Wedding:
This couple is so sweet! I have known Natalie since we were babies! I was so thankful that she asked me to photograph her wedding! They were married outdoors in Feb. at sunset...it was so gorgeous! Congrats and best wishes!!!

Christine's Maternity Portraits:
So as you might know- this is my sister (every one says we look a like) and she is due any day! She and her husband, Richard are having a little girl and naming her, Brooklyn Rose (how can you get a more beautiful name than that??!) So- I just want you to know that I have already spoiled this little girl rotten and she hasn't even made an appearance yet. I simply can't wait!

This is her baby shower invite that I custom designed for her baby shower (that I hosted of course!)

Brittney and Hailey's Senior Portraits:
Both Brittney and Hailey (who just happen to be sisters) were both graduating at the same time (Brittney from Nursing College and Hailey from High School). They wanted to have a few of their portraits taken together- so we combined their sessions and had so much fun! It is so great to see two sisters that love each other as much as these two girls do! Congrats to both of you for all you have accomplished!


Carson and Keaton's Portraits:
Carson and Keaton (who was turning one!) are the two cutest (!!!) and sweetest little boys that you will ever meet (I would like to know how I only ever get the best clients?!!) These little boys were GREAT for our session (which included me asking Carson if he liked hot pink marshmellows and he replied, "No, hot blue ones!" haha.. Hot blue marshmellows would be so awesome!


Chris' Senior Portraits:
Chris is SUCH an awesome person! We had so much fun taking his senior portraits! As you can see- he loves baseball. He currently plays for his school (Baytown Christian Academy!). He is such a genuine and kind hearted person! Chris- we wish you the best in all you do...you are truly the sweetest gentleman!



California 2009:
My husband (Mark) and I traveled (by car= 3,500 miles...to take our surfboards!) to California for to celebrate our one year anniversary (March 1st). We had an incredible time of surfing (of course!), hiking, exploring, a little shopping and visiting with his sister, Emily and her boyfriend, Seth! Here are just a few pictures I took (many more to come!)



(This is Trestles...its an awesome surf spot!) Mark had just bought a new board (which is SUPER cool...) and this was his first day to take it out...so instead of surfing, I took many pictures to remember the day!

Sarah's Senior Portraits:
Sarah...wow...I could go on all day about this girl! She is SO incredibly sweet! Her dad is my website designer (GR Studios) and we trade services...he does my site and I take portraits! So - we have said for the past 2 years that when Sarah graduated- I would do her senior portraits...wow how 2 years flies! Sarah was recently accepted to Baylor, where she will be attending in the fall. Sarah- I am SO proud of you!




Alyssa's Maternity Portraits:
Here are a few portraits from Alyssa's Maternity session. I really enjoyed working with Alyssa and her husband, Michael. Alyssa came in with a few ideas of her own and was so trusting to let me take those ideas and still put my touch on them! She is having a little boy, Brennan, who is due in the middle of June! I can't wait to see this little boy- he is going to be SO precious!
