COWBOY HATS & MUSTACHES | {FAMILY LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER, KATY TX}

Filled with a natural curiosity of the world around them and an abundance of energy- the kind grown ups long for, Misters E & J jumped, ran, and dug their way through their time with me.  I love when I get to play right along side the cuties I photograph.  Both of these handsome young men are hilarious and totally comfortable in front of the camera.    



  Can't you just see this little guy years from now, and handsome as ever, melting all the little girls hearts!  Look at that sweet face.  And his big bro...


Along with Mr. E's natural swagger in the black and white below, the mustache totally makes this image!  Watch out mom, you have a couple of heart breakers on your hands!!


 I just couldn't resist posting the last two images.  Between shots there was a lot of playing and walking.  Lots. of. walking.  The black and white below is of Mr. E as he was trying to high step it out of the yucky oak pollen.  Somewhere along the way it all became too much.  I love this image for numerous reasons like his expression, the details, but most of all the way it reminds me of  being a parent.  Watching and walking in quiet support from the sidelines until encouragement is needed -reaching in to comfort and help carry the load.


Then there is this image that stirs up delicious memories of being a kid and exploring the great big world.  



Thanks for a great evening B Family. You all are amazing- it was a true pleasure.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE A YEAR MAKES | {CHILD LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER, PEARLAND TX}


It is hard for me to believe that this sweet little gift celebrated her first birthday! It feels like a couple of months ago I was meeting her for the first time.  


What a difference a year makes!  Miss K, you are growing into such a fun and silly little girl!  Your huge blue eyes and super sweet personality make my heart full.  It has been a pleasure watching you grow!

MAGICAL MOMENTS | {CHILD LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER, KATY TX}

 Approaching the milestones of 4 years and 6 months old, these pretty princesses were so much fun to work with!  One of the perks of this dream job of mine is getting to document personalities that quickly change, develop, and grow with the children I photograph.   Still a big kid at heart, I jump at the chance to run, play, and crack up with the sweet faces that grace my presence.   Capturing an image and hearing laughter while looking back at the moment is my favorite.   Smiles that light up faces, huge brown eyes that draw you in for a cuddle, these are the magical moments of childhood -  and they make my heart smile.   Thanks again H family!  Your girls are beautiful.
