After the Storm

We made it! My prayers and hopes are with all of our clients and friends who are dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Ike! The storm came right across us up here near Conroe. It was a scary night and day. We had several large trees come down. Our barn is a pile of rubble! We haven't had horses in over a year, so it was unoccupied, at least! The house was undamaged, and our family is healthy and safe. After nearly a week, the power is on. That's a blessing!

My heart's broken from watching all the devastation from this horrible storm. I'm praying for all the families affected in such tragic ways.

Family Reunion Portraits

Summer and Holidays are a wonderful time to schedule a Family Reunion Portrait. This extended session allows for multiple images of the entire family, as well as unlimited breakdowns of smaller family groupings, including the grandkids, grandkids with grandparents, adult children, and individual families.

This family was celebrating one of the grown sons being home on a short leave from the military. He's headed back now, and our prayers are with him!


The whole gang!

The grandkids/cousins

Time flies when you're a BABY!!

It's only been a month since I last photographed Miss C, and she has already changed SO much! (Her newborn session is here.) I'm so excited to have this opportunity to photograph Miss C throughout her first year of life. She is a living doll!

Beautiful Mom-to-Be!

Mr. & Mrs. C. are eagerly expecting twins! I'm so excited! :)

This is their back yard! How awesome is that?

They look so cool and relaxed! You wouldn't even know it was 100 degrees!

Some fun black & white in the nursery!

Congratulations!! Now rest up and stay cool!

One of my Fave Fams!

I got to photograph one of my favorite families again! These are the Klein Kids. And, I swear, they just get cuter and cuter every time I see them!


This little doll was just a baby the first time I met her!

Sneak Peek! Precious Newborn

Update: Full session now online! Visit the link to the right to go to my online galleries.

I'm still proofing this session, so this is just a sneak peek - I love these images so much, I couldn't wait to share some of them. This is an awesome family! Little "C" is their first baby (not counting the two dogs in the last image!). They joined my Baby Steps Club, so I will have the honor of photographing Miss "C" throughout her first year. This daddy is so in love with his new little girl, he wants us to photograph her every month! He knows that this time is so precious, and is going to go by SO fast. I love my Baby Steps Club members! It's so fun getting to watch the babies grow! The full session will be posted in my online galleries next week.
