2+2=4

This is another repeat client and a good friend. We had fun last weekend during our early morning session. I'm glad we met when we did though, by 9:00 am it was starting to warm up. There were so many beautiful spots out at the Native Plant Center and the kids did great!

Two Things

First and foremost I had the wonderful pleasure of photographing a sweet 8 day old little girl on Saturday evening. She wasn't very sleepy so alas, no vases, bowls or flower pots with this one. She is a beautiful little peanut though but I never doubted that; her mother is simply gorgeous. Baby Jorja and her mother are models for my display in Dr. Glymph's office. Here are the two images I'll be using.Second, I have something I really want to work on, but with family, business and so many other distractions, I'm going to need you all to hold me accountable to it. As an artist I'm coming to realize the importance of keeping my creativity alive. Now don't get me wrong, I love photographing my clients, but I'm also realizing the importance of photographing for myself as well. I found an immense sense of fulfillment in the silhouette of my children. Not so much because it was my children, but because it was a vision I'd been able to see as reality. So here's my goal, (this is where you're going to have to be my accountability)by September 30th, I will have a new gallery on my website entitled "creating". This gallery will include special projects of mine. Examples might include my macro work, or a ballerina project I'm seeing in my head right now or possibly some more creative silhouettes. Thanks for your help on this!

Handsome Little Man

This young man came all the way from Austin just for a session with me! Wow! Okay, so it was actually his "Granna" (who lives here in Nac) that hired me, but still! What a compliment that his mother would come all this way for a session. It was a pleasure working with this young man, he was so easy to entertain and very laid back. We even had enough time to have a mini maternity session with Mommy. She's expecting a little girl in a few months! Yay!
As soon as this young man came out of the car it was clear that his Granna's family has some strong genes. If you know the family you will see what I mean.

Forty Years!

My husband and I are two weeks from celebrating our tenth anniversary... but I'm certain we seem like newly-weds to this fabulous couple. I hope forty years is this happy for us as well. Congratulations Dudley and Gayle! You have a beautiful family.

One Fun Family!

One of the many things I love about my job is having the opportunity to see children and families grow. This family is a perfect example. Two years ago this sweet mother brought her three boys to me and she's been coming back ever since. Here are two from our very first session....


Not only have their boys grown so much since then, but so has their family. They are now expecting a sweet baby girl (you can all pray with me that she'll have red hair like her mommy). Here are some favorites from their sunset session. Have fun looking!


This was all daddy's idea! His wife was wondering (when she saw him loading tackle boxes) if he'd misunderstood when she said it was a photo session not a fishing trip. When he explained I totally understood his vision. I adore when daddy gets involved and is a joyful participant in a session.
I am loving me some silhouettes lately. *sigh* Perfection.
Another vision I had in my head beforehand. I love love love this one!
