Senior Beauties

I had the pleasure of photographing two lovely young ladies last week. Each of them are graduating seniors this year at their respective high schools (Georgetown and Hutto). I love photographing "grads" because they are so much fun and have so much personality. (Although I will admit that I am feeling OLD because Anna was one of my students when I taught Art at Hutto Elementary, years ago.) Here are some of my faves from each session...

Fun Family!


The B family was in this week for a fun studio session. They were really great, had a terrific sense of humor, and all soooo good looking!! M - I want to create your senior portraits next year, girl, you are gorgeous!! G- your funny faces just cracked me up! J - well, the calm one in the middle, you were great at keeping everyone focused (probably so you could hurry and be "done"). Sandra, your kids are great, thanks for sharing them with me. Here is a sneak peek ...



Brothers Three

I had the pleasure of photographing these three brothers this week. They were so much fun, full of energy, ALL BOY! They were so cute in their holiday clothes, too. Lesley, you have three very sweet, handsome boys. Here is a sneak peek ...

Sweet Sisters - and Lollipops!

These sweet girls came to see me today. We had a great time outside playing on my antique tricycle and wearing pretty pettiskirts. When they started to get a little fussy (naptime was on the horizon...) I pulled out the universal symbol of FUN - LOLLIPOPS!! That brought a few extra smiles, and a lot of mess for mom (sorry, Shannon!!). Here is a sneak peek ...







Hot Mama!

Mariesa came in for maternity recently. She is one hot mama! She looked fabulous and we got some amazing captures. Here is a sneak peek for you, Mariesa ...

Mr. T returns!!

One of my favorite newborns has joined the Bright Beginnings Baby Club. Tristan is 4 months!! I can't believe how much he has grown since I last saw him. He was so full of smiles today, it just warmed my heart. Amy, thanks so much for entrusting him to me for his first precious year. Here is a sneak peek ...










Soooo Sweet!!

I had the sweetest newborn come in today. Baby Sloan is a tiny puff of sweetness. Really! She did not cry the entire time, not a whimper, til the very end. Then, she gave me the BEST gift - a BIG SMILE. So I had to come right in and start proofing these. Plus, grandma came along and we got an awesome capture of the three generations!! Here is a sneak peek for mommy & daddy (and grandma) ...

Upcoming Events and Deadlines

The holiday season is coming upon us fast! There are a few great portrait opportunities for your darling children, which also help the community!










November 9-10 is our Winter Wonderland limited edition. The set features a wintry scene, complete with snowflakes to toss! Winter fairy outfits and snow capes are available for the girls (please mention when booking if you want this option). Dress the kids in winter sweaters, hats and scarves and come over for some winter fun. Session fee is $75, if you bring a sack of pantry items to be donated to the Capital Area Food Bank.
Included with the session is one artist choice 5x7 bordered art print.






November 30-Dec 1 is our annual Holiday set. This year's set is "The Night Before Christmas," which is perfect for kids in jammies, snuggled up reading a book, or opening gifts under the tree. This set is designed for children but small families are welcome, too. Session fee is $75 for up to two children, $125 for families. Earn a $25 print credit by bringing in a gently used, clean coat to be donated to Coats for Kids. Session fee includes one artist choice 5x7 bordered art print.

Deadline for guaranteed delivery by Christmas is December 10 - this means that you need to complete your session earlier so that your order can be placed by December 10. I always do my best to deliver all orders before the holiday, but cannot guarantee them past December 10. The "Night Before Christmas" orders WILL be back in time for Christmas!!

Cuddly, Sweet and Soft

I had the pleasure of photographing TWO newborns last week, both of whom made their entrance earlier than expected. First, Baby T, who is just beautiful. She debuted several weeks ahead of schedule, but everything is great and mommy already looks dreamy! I am so jealous (I, who still have the "baby weight" from Abby, who is 3 1/2!!). You can tell how much they love this baby girl. Here is a sneak peek for them...










And here is baby C, who came a week early, he was so anxious to meet the world. Isn't he just adorable? The little sweetie slept almost the entire time (which is great! and why I ask for newborns to be "fresh from the oven") and we got some amazing images for his mommy & daddy. Here is a sneak peek ...




Pickin' Pumpkins - so much FUN!

What a weekend! Friday and Saturday was our annual pumpkin patch theme set. We had a great time photographing our little friends in their fall finest and their Halloween costumes. All this while I was also planning and preparing for my Liam's 6th birthday party on Sunday. Whew! It all went great, both the sessions and the party. Here are a few of my faves from the "Pickin' Pumpkins" set ...
