{dear friends} – fort worth family photography

Meet the Freemans, some of my favoritest people in the whole entire world. Leslie and I were bosom friends (anyone out there seen “Anne of Green Gables”?) in college and our husbands were best buds. Actually Adam (my hubby) and I were dating, then they started dating. God’s the one that actually put them together, but I’d like to think Adam and I had some kind of hand in it:) They’ve been overseas for the last three years, are back to visit for a few months and they stayed with us for three days. Since college, 7 years and 3.75 kids later, it felt like nothing had changed. Anyway, I was so honored when she asked me to photograph their sweet little family while they were visiting!

{booking fall sessions already} – fort worth senior photographer

As mentioned, I am less than three months until D-day (my baby’s due date). April 10th is supposedly the big day and I’ve got a zillion things to do before then (like update my blog- check!). I’m officially booked through my due date and am planning on taking some time off through the summer. I’m thankful for the time off to adjust to having TWO little ones (they’ll be 22 months apart) but I have a sneaky suspicion I’ll be REALLY ready to start shooting again after a few months.

I am planning to resume shooting again in the fall. If you’re interested in booking a session for the fall, I anticipate booking quickly so give me a call and we’ll talk! I’ve been booking 4 sessions per month (not necessarily one per week… just 4 per month). To make room for a new baby in my life  and keep my mommy role top priority, I‘m now booking only THREE sessions per month. So, if you would like to claim dibs on one of the three sessions in either September, October or November, give me a call to book and we can decide on a date the closer it gets.

You’ll notice my new blog border in the previous two posts. I’m so excited about it. Much improved from my old little watermark, don’t you think? I spent WAY too much time figuring it out, so I’m glad it’s finally in use!

27 weeks

My husband and I are addicted to cruises. We went on a cruise a couple weeks ago (our second cruise in six months!) and got some beautiful images. I can’t wait to weed through them to make available my favorites on the “art” gallery  on my website. But for now, I’ll post one this one of me:) I’ll post a few more fun snaps in a few days.

{big boy} – fort worth child photography

Well, my little Hudson is 18 months old and we’re welcoming baby #2 (still nameless) into our family in less than 3 months! I couldn’t resist showing a few favs from his 18 month portraits! I just LOVED this little red sweater and cords and was determined to have his portraits taken in them. Sadly, I think I’d waited just a little too long b/c his little stomach has filled out and was pooching out of both the pants and shirt. He’s definitely starting to fill out in the face and tummy.

{what a family!} – fort worth family photographer

One of the awesome privileges of my job is meeting/getting to know better my clients through the process of creating their precious portraits. This family was no exception. I actually have known them for a couple years and was SO excited when the mom asked me to photograph their family. As you’ll be able to see below, they are the COOLEST family EVER. They were absolute hoots and kept me laughing as they laughed. Alot of teens can be too “cool” for their family and pictures but these kids really enjoyed each other. I could brag all day long about them, but I’ll go ahead and let you see their family’s portraits!

The mom was the vision behind this shoot. She did a stellar job at thinking through the style she wanted to achieve with her portraits which included location and clothing. Such creativity. It was fun to shoot in a new location!

The  mom asked me about trying to produce a photograph similar to the “Abbey Road” road. Here was our best effort. Not bad:)
