The B Family {Spring, TX Family Photography}

I've had the pleasure to work with my third one-year-old in a row (or should I say fifth, since the others were sets of twins?) and let me tell you, what a heartbreaker he was! This little man was happy, laid-back, and full of adorable toothy smiles. He was just a dream to shoot! Oh yeah, and his parents weren't bad, either! ;) Thanks, B fam, for a great session.












Happy birthday, buddy!

The F Family {Cypress, Katy Family & Child Photographer}

I had the awesome pleasure of working with another set of 1-year-old twins this weekend! These two were just as cute as my previous session and such sweeties. Oh, and the little guys are completely identical! I absolutely LOVE the way their mom dressed them, and they really rocked the bright colors.










Check out their SOCKS!!! Love 'em!

The J Family {Cypress, TX Family, Baby Photographer}

What can I say about this awesome family and these two absolutely PRECIOUS one-year-old twins? They braved the cold, brought along the most fun aunt any kid could ever dream of having, and made a fabulously yummy mess. We ended up with some great shots! Here's a sneak peek of these sweet siblings ... oh, and I saved my favorite picture for the end!

What a gorgeous day we had for my session with this beautiful family! This shoot involved lots of running around, playing, and stick-throwing in the pond. Check out these two precious kiddos.

The D Family {Cypress, Jersey Village Maternity Photographer}

I just love photographing pregnancies! I honestly don't think there is anything more miraculous (or beautiful) than a growing life inside a mother's body. Check out this hot mama and her loving husband.










Thank you for giving me the opportunity to document this amazing time in your life. You and baby Alexa will be in my prayers.

The V Family {Cypress Area Family / Child Photographer}

I was asked by some great friends to do a session while their family was together. Now, I have known little J since before he was born, and he and I are buddies. I have a total soft spot in my heart for his big, beautiful eyes, and I think he knows I'm a sucker for his cute little smile. So imagine my surprise when THIS is what I got from him for the first part of our session!

Actually, it was pretty funny (did I mention I have a soft spot for this guy?) and I wasn't truly surprised. (Hey, I've been through the Terrible-Twos-Just-Turned-Threes stage!)

No problem, though! We played, everyone chilled out, we bribed, (marshmallows ... great idea, Misty!) we waited patiently, and eventually we got some adorable shots and a had a very happy little guy.





I had a fabulous time with you guys yesterday! I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

The A Family

J gave me a call a few weeks ago and told me she was going to be home for the holidays and wanted to get her family together for some pictures. She is in the Army, stationed in El Paso, and I was honored to work with her and her fun-loving family. Thank you so much, J, for serving our country!
