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!
