Do boys get any cuter than this?

These boys were so good, handsome, and fun! I LOVE the colors their mom chose for the session!

LOVE. THE. COLORS.

I loved seeing their brotherly bond come out too. It totally reminded me of my two boys.

It makes me happy when people feel comfortable enough in a session to totally let loose and show their personality and love. So CUTE!

Storyboards...my new obsession!

I am really LOVING making 10x20 storyboards with photos from my recent sessions! Each 10x20 print will have 2-5 photos together that tell a small story or just look cute!

I love having candid photos mixed with portraits. I think it gives a glimpse into the personality of the people being photographed. Here are a few I've been working on.

This little gal gave me a run for my money. She took 2 perfect shots in the beginning with a background that I didn't love (good thing for black & white conversion) and then wouldn't smile big after that. These photos with her baby are my favorites! She loves her baby. SO SWEET!

And here a couple I did with my little Valentine model! LOVELY! In purple...

Something different...

I had a wonderful photo shoot with this beautiful gal on Saturday. We took photos in one of my favorite locations - a back street in Pittsburg, TX. It was quite chilly but we had fun and got some great shots anyway!

Valentines Special!

I recently set up a small studio in my home. For the month of February, I am going to be offering children's studio sessions at a REALLY great price!

Each client will get a choice of up to two backdrops and a 20-30 minute session. I have LOTS of backdrop colors to choose from. Your photos DO NOT have to be Valentine themed.

After the session, I will post 5-10 edited images to an online gallery. At this point you can choose which images you want for your prints.

Please see my Specials page for pricing and more details.

Here is an example of what you might get from your studio session!

Long overdue...

I am long overdue for a post on this blog. I guess it is fitting that these pictures have been long overdue for some editing and sharing.

I took these photos of my friend's niece over Thanksgiving. That's a LONG time ago.

She was adorable and kept climbing all these different stairs that looked exactly the same. She would sit, smile for me, and then climb down.

I don't want to admit on here that I totally messed up the white balance on this session. All the pictures turned out to have MAJOR blue tint. I was SO disappointed about that. If it would have been a paying session, I would have refunded the money and given them another session and prints for free. Luckily I was able to salvage a few good ones in black and white of this cutie!

You can be SURE that I will be checking my white balance settings and LCD display like crazy from now on!
