Last week I had the honor of meeting and spending some time with this beautiful family. Siblings, cousins, grandparents…they all gathered together to witness and celebrate the baptism of this sweet little boy.

Before the baptism I met with them at their family home and I was surrounded by all these beautiful children. So many precious faces.

Then we went to the church for the baptism. Like I already said, beautiful.

I’m so excited to share these pictures. I just love them. This couple is somewhat reserved but still totally fun and unique. I really hope these photos capture the spirit of Sonya and Aaron’s wedding day as well as their personalities. Thank you guys so much for allowing me to be a part of your day. It really was an honor.

Just look at this beautiful little boy! And not only is he beautiful but he wins the cooperative toddler award, hands down. He was soooo good and so cute! His parents are pretty great too but goodness… would you look at those eyes on this boy! It’s been a while since I’ve photographed a toddler and I was reminded all over again how much I LOVE working with this age.

I met these lovely folks out at their home in Jones Creek for pictures a few days ago. The plan was to take all of the pictures there. But…the mosquitoes had other plans so we took off to the beach on a whim to get away from those awful things. So here are a few of my favorites before, during, and after the mosquitoes almost carried us away (in no particular order)

This is a very special family who has traveled from quite a distance to get back to their hometown for a visit. And they chose ME to capture part of their time together. What an honor! These guys were so much fun to hang out with and get to know. I’ve found lately that the beach is the only location that is mosquito free and not unbearably hot, and I think this was the perfect place for these guys. As you can tell in one of the pictures, they added a temporary addition for one of their photos. We found this pelican (I don’t know birds??) and he let us get really close to him. I don’t know if he was sick or just really social but we decided to take advantage of the rare ability to get that close.

And my personal favorite…

On a somewhat related side note, while I was photographing these guys Tuesday evening my mom got a call that they had the perfect liver waiting for her. She’s been waiting for a liver transplant for about three months so we were elated and shocked that she got the call so quickly. She’s doing very well. She’s still waiting to come home. Please pray for her. Her name is Marilyn.

I drove out to Galveston last weekend to photograph this precious couple getting married. Their wedding was beautiful…and hot! Our part of the world has been pretty darn hot lately. I had a lot of fun at this wedding and these guys did too. Enjoy!

Special – child mini studio session!

For a limited time I am offering a 30 minute mini session in my home just for kids. This offer is for one or two children of the same family. For $250, plus tax you will receive a 30 minute studio session in my home and a CD of 10 edited high resolution digital files of my choice in color and b&w. The $250 fee must be paid in advance to book the date. Contact me for availability.

I don’t think I’ve put any pictures of my kids up here in a while. They do not like me taking pictures of them. Not at all. I guess that’s typical for most photographer’s kids. My youngest especially doesn’t tolerate it. Here are a few I manged to get today. There are a few more on my personal blog.

That one of Mikey on the right is so awful…and so funny. He just wasn’t feeling it.

This morning I got to photograph this little guy at our new house. This was the first session in our “formal” living room that will be doubling as my studio. This first picture is one my husband took so you can kind of see the setup. Nothing fancy but it works. I have a small backdrop and will be getting some furniture soon to use for small sessions.

So this next shot is the one I was taking when Phillip was taking that shot of me. Little Tyler is such a precious little boy and his parents and big sisters are very glad that he’s here to love on.
