My latest three...

Here are my latest three session from the past couple weeks...
First off the Limas and Klam families with their sweet little yorkie, Zoe.  
Good looking family huh!
I LOVE this family picture!
Roc wanted pictures with just him and his baby girl...so cute!

I think this one was my favorite family pic...although I'm not big on the posing of families, they just kindof got into place perfectly.

This one is more my style...Roc admiring how beautiful his new wife is and of course Zoe turned away to checkout the ducks.
Like I've said many times before, I LOVE pictures of people laughing!  There wasn't even any kids in this session but I had to bark like a dog and quack like a duck to get Zoe's attention.




This is a family favorite too!

I love this one of Roc, Amanda & Zoe!  They look like naturals!
On to Miss Emma...She is the little angel of one of my hubby's best friends Jim.  Jim & Erica came over about a month ago for a session with Emma and all kinds of props.  She had a cold and it was freezing in my studio but she was a trooper.  Here are some of her halloween outfit.  (these are a bit out of order)
My favorite from the whole session...

Another favorite...
Little miss santa claus wasn't too happy here...




Once again, I'm not big on the posed family pics but I thought this one was cute...



And last but not least, The Freed Family...you probably remember this cute little guy from a couple years back imitating the ducks.  I did their family pics back when they were just 3...now they have a fairly new addition, Jake.  I recently posted his session which were some of my favorites ever!









Dylan makes the best faces ever.

Robinson Family & Avery's 1st

Once again it's been a while but I do have a good excuse...we were planning and executing my baby girl's 1st birthday party! I'll have some pictures new pics of her up really soon...hopefully ;-)
If someone asked me to choose an amazing mom for "The amazing moms award," I would have to choose my good friend and fellow photographer extraordinaire Tracy! Besides my own momma of course! This mother of 4, beautiful wife, daughter, friend & fabulous woman is unbelievable! She is the HR manager for a large US company and a children's photographer...that's enough for one life time alone but then you add in 4 little rug rats all 6 or under and a hubby and WOW, where is there any free time? LOL (I guess that free time is in the middle of the night...inside joke...she sometimes works at 3 in the morning editing pictures or posting more pictures on her blog) Anyways, I'll get to my favorite pictures from my session with her family...
I LOVE this one of just the girls!

This is Tracy's oh so beautiful and sweet as sugar, Kaylee who seriously knows how to work the camera! Can you tell? :-)

Little Miss Emily


This is Presley...look at her profile...so sweet huh!
I love these next two and how they make me feel...all free spirited like.
Is there anything better than seeing beautiful smiles on children's faces or hearing their little giggles! Not in my book!
Mr. Jude! Trendy, handsome little guy, isn't he!

The eyes get me every time!

The whole family! Tracy thinks Jude looks drunk in this picture but I LOVE it! I love that his hand is right on top of his Dad's head...love it!
This picture speaks for itself! They are just gorgeous!

OK...on to my cousin's baby's first birthday party. This is little Miss Avery!
She turned 1 years old mid-October and look at all of those teeth! I think my cousin Meredith said she had 8 teeth! Ella has ZERO and they are only 3 weeks apart! LOL
This is one of Avery's little friends who is right around the same age...cutie huh!
And this is my little Ella Bear sitting on the horse on the carousel looking all serious.

That's my baby girl!

This is my sweet little nephew, Ethan..."big E" who is 4 months younger than Ella and Avery and who will probably be walking before both of them because he is our little tazmanian devil!

Avery eating some of her first birthday cake...

trying to escape from the spotlight?



My cousin Meredith, Carl and Avery...I love these next three pictures...they would look cute in a 3 slot frame!


And last but not least my beautiful Aunt Darla! Avery's grandma!

Playing catch up...

I know, it's been a long time and I have a lot of catching up to do. So, let me go ahead and get to it since there are lots of pictures to enjoy!A couple weeks back I had the honor of meeting Wes & Jascha and capturing sweet moments at their beautiful wedding! It was at Houston Oaks Golf Club in Hockley. Unfortunately it rained that day and it did not let up at all for them to have their wedding outside under the beautiful oak trees as originally planned but it was a beautiful ceremony and reception none the less!

I loved their centerpieces! Two fish in a hurricane glass...very cool!
Their flowers were pretty too!
I thought this picture was appropriate since it was raining to have a couple rain drops in the picture with the rings.
Jascha had 8 gorgeous bridesmaids and every single one of them was working on her and helping her with something at one point or another. She has someone painting her toenails, another painting her fingernails, another curling her hair and one more doing her make-up all at the same time. That's what I call pampering! Or maybe it was because she was running behind...LOL
She was a beautiful bride!
Her brother escorted her to her new husband!
Her brother also sang an awesome song and played the guitar.

Introducing Mr & Mrs. Wes Tyrrell...love this pic!


This was during the toasts which were really sweet & funny!

love these next two!

Love the next two of Jascha and her brother dancing too!
Such a sweet moment!
OK on to a family session I did at the end of Sept. The B Family. They all look alike! Such a beautiful family!
These next two were my favorites from the whole session!

And now on to my sweet little sugar bear, Ella! I took these back in Sept.
She got an aqua colored tutu (Tiffany style according to my sweet friend Carla who graciously made it for her...her website will be up soon and I will let you know when it is)


I also bought her a pink tutu from Paisley Avenue in which I met the owner of at a benefit back in August.
This one is my absolute favorite...I even had a 20x30 gallery wrap made of it to display on my mantal.
I used this one on her birthday party invitation.

Big boy Jake

This session with big boy Jake was definitely one of my most favorites ever! I LOVE every one of his pictures and it was really hard to pick and choose my favorites! I'll be doing his family session in October so stay tuned for the whole crew! Enjoy!




Love the faces he was making!



FAVORITE!!!





I couldn't forget the naked pictures...he'll love these when he gets older!








Check out the tongue action...LOL
I had so much fun taking these pictures of Jake and I totally look forward to catching the whole family in action in October!!!
