Silly Ili + The Rodeo | {KATY CHILD LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER}

I am so excited to share some of my very favorite images from the Silly Ili's photo shoot. I must take a second and thank everyone that was involved and put in countless man hours to make this a huge success! Your sacrifices are noted and appreciated! First, to the folks at the Freeman Ranch and Stables - "Thank you" a hundred times over for allowing us access to your gorgeous facility! To Kristen at Silly Ili's and Roz with Sweet Pea Blossoms, your work is unbelievable and compliments each other flawlessly. If you like what you see both ladies have ETSY shops... here and here. To the amazing Amy M. that not only arranged for us to use the ranch, she also lent us her daughter and horse, and assisted with the shoot all while nursing and excruciating leg injury..."A" you are a ROCK STAR and we appreciate how giving and selfless you are. (If your child has asked for a pony and its just not in the budget...give them the next best thing!) Amy, offers Pony Playdates and Pony Birthday Parties. For more information, contact Amy directly via email at aem828@yahoo.com.
Finally, to our darling models and their parents who braved the early morning wind and chill- you brought cuteness beyond expectations...

Love these boots?.... get a pair here.

Cindy Lou Who & The Grinch...{Child Lifestyle Photographer Katy, TX}

Meet Ili this cutie patootie is the inspiration behind Silly Ili's, the Sugar Land based business taking mom's of little girls by storm! The boutique specializes in making custom tutus, costumes, and dresses- literally bringing imagination to life! I had the privilege of playing with Ili yesterday as we photographed a sampling of the December line. If you are in Fulshear, TX this weekend be sure to stop and meet Ili at The Mommy Swagger Expo, held in the Cross Creek Ranch community.

Perseverance...{Child & Family Lifestyle Photographer Katy, TX}

Perseverance. That is what it has taken to get this beautiful family of four in front of my lens! We have battled weather, illness, and time changes. Seasons have come and gone since our initial session. Yet, we did it! M Family I am proud to have had the opportunity to photograph you all. Thank you for being so gracious and patient. You a have been a DREAM to work with. So, without further ado... your sneak peek.

Friday Night Lights...{Engagement Lifestyle Photographer Katy, Tx}

They met under the Friday night lights years ago. He caught her eye from across the stadium and she was intrigued. She watched as he wrapped ankles, tested knees, and tended to injuries. It started innocent enough, a glance here and there, a shy "hello" in passing. College put physical distance between the two for years. A lifetime of long distance and late night calls is coming to an end as C & L celebrate their engagement and look forward to starting a new life together. Congratulations you two! I had an amazing time with you both and am honored to call you friends...even if you aren't Aggies. Enjoy your sneak peek!
