Oh this family… they are the absolute sweetest! You might remember their ‘One’derland session from last year. We had just as much fun this year and not only is little Ms. cutie the BIG *two* now, but she is also going to be a BIG sister this Fall. I’m so excited for their growing family and adore all of the images we got to help document this special time. Mom and Dad are pro’s at being in the moment and allowing me to capture all of the love that they have for each other. There was plenty of laughing, playing and a whole lotta lovin’. You don’t want to miss this fun little video from their session, catch me if you can. And can you believe all of the beautiful light we got?! They were glowing! I’m so glad that we did not listen to the 60 percent chance of rain and thunderstorm weather reports. Which is why I just don’t trust them. Good ‘ole Texas weather! 😉 Everything was perfect… so very perfect. [Read more…]
THE PERFECT MIX| dallas, tx graduating senior portrait photography
From Downtown Dallas to wildflowers, this session was the perfect mix of urban and natural settings for Taylor’s senior portraits. We worked together closely to create a unique session and I could not be happier with how everything turned out. And don’t you just love her in those yellow flowers?! We had to work hard to find them, but it was so worth it. Taylor, you are pure sunshine! Thank you for being so wonderful to work with. I really enjoyed our time together and wish you nothing but the best! [Read more…]
SO MUCH SWEETNESS| dallas, tx newborn lifestyle photographer
Sometimes getting younger siblings to participate in newborn sessions can be pretty challenging… but WOW, what a sweet big sister M is! She has taken on her new role with so much love that it resulted in nothing short of a magical afternoon of snuggles and lots and lots of kisses. What an honor to get to help capture that for them! I can’t wait for them to look back on these as they get older. Makes me all warm and fuzzy! And those images of Mom with her baby girl? They way she looks at her, kisses her little fingers… I melt, I seriously melt! You *have* to check out the video below… so many lovely moments! [Read more…]
HAPPY CAMPER | dallas, tx newborn lifestyle photography
This sweet little one definitely wins the award for smiliest newborn. He was such a happy camper and already has the cutest personality. Mom & Dad have quite the ham on their hands… he was *all* about the camera! Being that we waited around 3 weeks to do his session, we got so many adorable facial expressions and really awesome eye contact. And watching Mom & Dad take it all in was really special, they obviously love him to the moon and back. So very sweet… just check out the below video and see for yourself. PS – Just incase you missed them, you can find a couple more of my favorites here and here. [Read more…]
LIFE’S GREATEST BLESSING | dallas, tx family lifestyle photographer
… is the love of a family. The way they all look at each other and laugh together, it’s contagious and such a joy to be around. I have been looking forward to this ever since meeting them at big brother’s senior session in the Spring. Now that D is away at college, Mom and Dad wanted to be sure and get everyone together for family portraits during his visit home for Thanksgiving. Such a wonderful way to celebrate the holiday and how thankful they are for each other. It was a real treat to help capture that for them. And Mom totally deserves an award for coordinating everyone’s outfits… so stylish and perfect for our locations. Thank you B family for being *you*… I love the way you guys love.

BABY LOVE | dallas, tx newborn lifestyle photographer
This guy came into the world like a *boss* at 9lbs 12oz and 22 inches. He is such a sweet, snugly baby with awesome parents that I’m lucky enough to call friends. I couldn’t be happier for them and look forward to watching Baby P grow up. As I sit here writing this, all bundled up from the freezing weather, I can’t believe that we took these just earlier this week in much warmer temperatures. I’m so glad that it worked out the way it did because they live on the most beautiful property… everything was so perfect and Baby P was such a rockstar. And, wowzers, check out those peepers, such a handsome little dude! Big brother still isn’t real sure what to think about all it all, but I know that soon enough they will be best buds.

ADVENTURE LAND | dallas, tx family lifestyle photographer
We traveled down the lane of arches and changing trees to explore the land of magic mirrors, secret gardens, obstacle castles and book mountains – oh my! It was a beautiful morning full of adventure and a whole lotta loving. I instantly fell in love with this sweet family and little cutie totally melted me. She taught me all about how the chicken goes cluck, cluck and gave me the rundown on all of the characters from her favorite Mickey Mouse movie. So adorable and smart… she’s really going to be a great big sister! Thank you M Family for spending your morning with me and trusting me capture your story. See more images… [Read more…]
DOWNTOWN DUDE | dallas, tx graduating senior portrait photographer
As much as I love all things sunny, I’m also quite partial to lovely overcast days as well. You get such soft, filtered light and at this session we got to use some areas that I normally can’t touch because the sun is usually too strong… bonus!! It was a nice afternoon spent in Downtown Dallas with this soon-to-be graduating senior. I enjoyed hearing about his plans for college and listening to his great accent. 😉 He was super easy going and great to work with, much like his brother. I wish them both nothing but the best as they finish out their senior years and start the next chapters of their lives. See more images… [Read more…]
PROUD MOMENTS | dallas, tx graduating senior portrait photographer
It’s no secret that I love shooting at The Cotton Mill so I was thrilled when she decided to do her session there and I love that she was willing to try out a new outdoor location with me too. It was the most perfect ending to a wonderful afternoon together. We had lots of ooooo and ahhhh moments sneaking peeks of the back of the camera and maybe even some holding back of tears from Mom. I can’t blame her, she has so much to proud of during such an exciting time in her daughter’s life. She’s a smart, sweet and talented young lady with a bright future ahead. I’m honored that they chose me to help capture her true beauty from the inside and out. I enjoyed every minute of it! See more images… [Read more…]
GOLDEN FAMILY LOVE | dallas, tx family lifestyle photographer
I knocked and as soon as the door opened, I got the most incredible hug from sweet L. My most favorite way to get greeted and she’s so good at giving them too… those genuine, thoughtful kind with a lovable squeeze. I always look forward to those hugs and my time with this family. They are the kind of people I like to call good eggs and with the light we got at their session I’d also like to add golden. Wowzers, it was a beautiful afternoon soaking up sunshine in their neighborhood park. Complete with family snuggling, best FURiend love and mother-daughter moments that will totally melt you.
