Fabulous Engagement Session -- {Bryan/College Station Engagement Photographer}

2010-02-09T15:28:00.002-06:00

What a fabulous session! Kyle and Lori are the SWEETEST couple! It was so hard keeping them from smiling. Their smiles are contagious! I LOVE the looks that I captured them giving each other. There are two pictures on here that I just adore the look Lori is giving him. SO loving and so hot. hehe It just melts my heart. I was excited to get to try out a new location. We went to the now "infamous" barn and to a nature trail. Thanks guy's for choosing me to take your portraits. You make my job so fabulous!!!

I was so excited to finally meet baby Tripp! What a beautiful baby boy! I had the pleasure of taking maternity pictures of this gorgeous momma. We had a great session. He barely made a fuss. I just LOVE the pics I got of the two of them together. It makes my job so worth it when I see how excited my clients get over their pictures. Here are a few I will share but believe me, it was hard to choose. Hope you love them Morgan!

Kinsley's 1! -- {Bryan/College Station Children Photographer}

2010-01-08T11:20:00.002-06:00

I can't believe she is one already! This last year has flown by. It seems like just yesterday I was taking her newborn pictures. We had some fun playing dress up. She got a sweet new skirt for Christmas so we incorporated her adorable birthday headband with it. She looks like a lil can can. SO CUTE! No nap and happy baby! We had a lot of fun with this session. Here is your sneak peek Kristin! ;)

Modeling for fun -- {Bryan/College Station Photographer}

2009-12-28T17:31:00.005-06:00

My family went to my in laws in San Antonio for Christmas. I was standing on the upstairs patio looking at the empty lot behind them. It was evening and the sun was setting. I got that little "ding,ding,ding" in my crazy little head. The light is flowing through the trees so beautiful and golden and there is green all over the ground, I wonder if my sweet and cute sister in law would want to do a fun little photo shoot over there this week. She happily agreed so we went through her closet. It started off as a grunge/teenage photo session and ended up more of a "Twilight" type session. My other sister in law is also doing photography so she joined us. They were both cracking me up by talking about things "Bella" does in the Twilight series. I saw the first movie but I'm not the huge fan a lot of people are, so I couldn't really remember how she acted and such like they did. I'm more into "True Blood". After doing this session, I def want to see it again. My young sis in law was not a huge fan of Twilight until recently. My mother in law bought her the series of books and she can't put them down. She informed me that the vampire bite is NOT two puncture marks but a crescent shape. I would have never known. Then they told me about the eyes of a vampire, they are dark when they are hungry and ready to feed and light when they are full. Perfect with Julie's eye color. Ya know, ya learn something new everyday right? lol Anyway, we started off with a fairy thing and went to more of a twilight thing. It was fun to just play. Julie was such a natural. Thanks again Julie. You are the bomb! OH, and I almost forgot! As we are shooting a spiked buck walks right into the lot. We are like "OMG", then a 4point (or so) buck walks up behind him. I can't say I have ever been that close to one. We were laughing saying that went right along with our theme but didn't get any pics of them in the background. They didn't last long. The clicking of our cameras ran them off. THEN, the neighbors had their binoculars out trying to figure out what we were doing. It was pretty funny! To the like 3 people that follow my blog, I hope you like them!

This is when the deer started walking up

My fav!!!

Another fav!

Notice the bite?

I guess Edward bit her? lol

That's all folks...

Hot & Awesome Engagement session -- {Bryan/College Station Engagement Photographer}

2009-12-20T12:34:00.002-06:00

This was an absolutely awesome session. My good friends were up for anything! We laughed and got silly. It was so hard to pick out my favorites! There were SO many. They told me some interesting stuff about downtown were we took these. I have done a lot of sessions downtown but knowing the history a little more is always fun to me. They were telling me about Lyle Lovett doing a video to "This old porch" down there. It was in the 90's. After I watched the little documentary and video and saw all the places where I take pictures, I was in awe of how much it has changed. Heck, it has changed a lot just since I moved here about 14yrs ago. I love Lyle's music!!! I can't believe I didn't know he had filmed a video here. He is an Aggie and use to live here (heck, he may still have a home here). Anyway, made the session really interesting hearing all of the stuff they knew about the downtown. I'm not a big history buff or anything but do love to know interesting details about places I love. They are really cleaning up this area. There are so many other places I would love to shoot at but it's not the best part of town! ;) So hopefully more will be done so I can have some new spots! It really has become over saturated with photographers too. Can you blame them? lol Ok, enough of me rambling on about my fun location. Here is the awesome session...

Cashion family -- {Bryan/College Station Family Photographer}

2009-12-01T22:02:00.002-06:00

I was excited for this session. Isn't this family gorgeous! I have known them for over 10yrs. Shannon and I were even pregnant at the same time once. We do have some great belly shots together, lol! This is just a little sneak peek. I have more coming. Hope you enjoy...

Rockin session! -- {Bryan/College Station Family Photographer}

2009-11-26T00:41:00.002-06:00

Oh how cool is my little buddy? He totally rocked this session and let me tell you I have had a very difficult time trying to figure out which ones I like best. There are so many fun pics! I will be shocked if he doesn't grow up to be a rock star! Thank you my sweet friends for this awesome session! You guy's rocked it out...

Fabulous family! -- {Bryan/College Station Family Photographer}

2009-11-24T22:30:00.002-06:00

I was so excited to take pictures for this family. They have been friends of mine for many years. Collier is an absolute doll. Full of smiles and giggles. I laughed so hard at him kissing on his daddy's nose and head. Just loved this session! :)

DeLeon family -- {Bryan/College Station Family Photographer}

2009-11-23T15:40:00.002-06:00

It was a little chilly and windy but absolutely FUN session! Wow did I laugh. I have missed my good friends. We just don't get to see each other enough. I love you guy's. Here is a peek...

Remembering Bonfire 10yrs ago

2009-11-18T11:12:00.003-06:00

I am not real good about posting personal stuff on my blog but felt I needed to say something today. This is a tough day for a lot of people here in Aggieland. 10 years ago bonfire collapsed, leaving 12 students as casualties. I remember it like it was yesterday. The evening it happend I had went to North Gate (for those who are not aggies it is a strip of bars next to campus). I drove by stack looking over to my left to see all the lights on, cranes running stacking logs and people working. The next morning my roommate woke me up to say that stack had fallen. We sat glued to the tv, watching and crying. OMG, I had just been by there a few hours ago. I went to work that morning and found out that I could go volunteer. I was a massage therapist at the time and they were allowing us to go work on the volunteers. I can't describe how it felt walking on to the bonfire site. So erie. There are so many words I could describe but probably should keep those to myself. I remember trying to hold back the tears as I worked on a fireman, bloody, dirty, worn out. I have so much respect to the fire and police departments who were out there for so many hours. What an emotional drain it was on so many of us there. The moments of silence we had so they could use instruments to listen and see if they could get any sounds from underneath the ruble. I was there when the last body was removed from the stack, I saw parents crying, I saw volunteers ready to collapse. I saw so many things that evening that will forever be with me. My husband was also there that night. At that time, we had probably met once or twice but were not even dating. He is a police officer and was there the same time as I. It is so emotional for us when we talk about it. We never saw each other that night but can remember a lot of the same things we saw that evening. I went to the candle light vigil they had a few nights later. There were so many flowers, pots (the hats that the students wear while working on bonfire), letters and mementos everywhere. So this is why this is an emotional day for me. I was there and I saw the hurt and emotion in so many people. I had only had the experience of one bonfire that burned before this. So I experienced the before and after of the 90 year old tradition. Texas A&M is built on tradition. I love all that it stands for. So for those of you who took the time to read this remember life is short. Remember the fallen 12. Pray that the family of those 12 have peace tonight. Live, Love and Gig'em! Whoop!

Hamilton Family -- {Bryan/College Station Family Photographer}

2009-11-11T08:17:00.003-06:00

Another fabulous family session! How gorgeous is this crew? The boys were a riot! We talked about Ben 10 and superheros, I fit right in. Thank goodness I have a boy and knew what they were talking about! lol The funniest thing was watching Brek look at this statue. He couldn't figure out why he was not moving. I was cracking up! So here is your peek...

Beautiful newborn! -- {Bryan/College Station Newborn Photographer}

2009-11-09T08:40:00.002-06:00

What a beautiful newborn! This sweet little girl was just 9 days old. Still a little jaundice but so sweet and quite. I don't think I heard her cry until the end of our session when Mom got her dressed. Her big sister was adorable! She loves her baby. It was so sweet. These girls have absolutely beautiful names. They are going to be heartbreakers so watch out! Thank you Denise and Jason for welcoming me into your home. Here are Markley and baby Rawley...

The Gorgeous Slater Family! -- {Bryan/College Station Family Photographer}

2009-11-08T13:52:00.002-06:00

My gorgeous friends, oh how I love to take their pictures. What a photogenic family. We went to a really fun spot to do some Christmas photos. I just love how they turned out. My fav has got to be mom and dad kissing. It turned out just like I wanted. We took so many of those and a couple of funny ones also. I don't think they minded, really! :) Ok, enough talk, here ya go...

Carroll Family -- {Bryan/College Station Family Photographer}

2009-11-03T08:37:00.002-06:00

What a beautiful session this was! This gorgeous family met me downtown for a fantastic evening. We had been rained out already and ended up having beautiful weather. These little cuties were so funny. I think one of them was even a little flirt... ;) Anyway, here are a few pics for you guy's. I really enjoyed our session, thanks!

Ok, can't decide on color or b&w

Look at these beautiful blue eyes!

Beautiful Maternity/Family session -- {Bryan/College Station Maternity/Family Photographer}

2009-10-29T09:54:00.002-05:00

What can I say, I love my job! This family makes me so giddy about what I do! Beautiful glowing momma, proud daddy and adorable blue eyed sweetheart! They will be adding another sweet boy to their family very soon. I got some amazing pictures! This is just a small peek of what's to come. Oh and have I said how much I LOVE this location? hehehe

Hadleigh is 2 -- {Bryan/College Station Photographer}

2009-10-27T15:42:00.002-05:00

This was a beautiful session for Miss Hadleigh. Her mommy is one of my closest friends (and old roomate) :). She and my sweet girl are big buddies. I can't wait till they can have tea parties! We took these on a beautiful ranch in town owned by some wonderful friends. I absolutely LOVE this place, SO beautiful. I could go on and on, beautiful baby girl, beautiful location. Oh, it makes my job so fun! I just love the expressions I get from little Hadleigh. She is so precious. Ok, enough yacking, on with the pics...

Aggie Family -- {Bryan/College Station Family Photographer}

2009-10-20T09:04:00.003-05:00

I had so much fun with this Aggie family. We shot this at a new location for me so I had the opportunity to work with some back lighting. The girls were so much fun! I hadn't seen them in a few years so I was shocked to see how much they had grown. Why is it we always expect kiddos to be just as small as the last time we saw them. They are not suppose to grow up on us, right? lol Here is a sneak peek for you and the rest will be to follow. :)

I love how Miranda is jumping on the right. She looks like Pippi Longstocking. So cute!

2yr old twins -- {Bryan/College Station Children Photographer}

2009-10-13T16:33:00.004-05:00

I had an absolute blast at this session. My first time to work with twins and they were the sweetest and most well behaved kiddos. They were not shy one bit and let me tell you, this little boy knows how to flirt and work it! :) I had to laugh at a couple of the pictures I got where she was pushing him from behind and he was laughing. Then how he would lead her by the hand. Oh, it was just precious! Thanks Groves family! I hope you enjoy the pics!

Sweet baby Aubrey! -- {Bryan/College Station Newborn Photographer}

2009-09-17T22:10:00.003-05:00

I was so glad to finally meet baby Aubrey. I took mom's maternity pictures and couldn't wait to get my hands on this sweet little girl. Let me tell ya, I have got my baby fix this week, 2 sweet baby girls!! What a fun week for me! I was excited to use my antique stroller and new fringe throw. I think they turned out fab! Of course, I have a hard time sometimes deciding if I like the black and white or color better. I really do like black and white for baby photos though. Anywho, here are a few from our "sleepless session". These girls were just hard on me this week! lol Here is the future model...

Sweet Miss Emrie -- {Bryan/College Station Newborn Photographer}

2009-09-15T23:16:00.002-05:00

Oh what a fight this sweet thing is already putting up. She was SO good but really did not want to sleep for me. I caught sweet pics between her catnaps. She did finally get in her sleep zone about 3hrs into our session. Jenny thanks for all your patience. Emrie is an absolute doll! I even played around with a "Gig'em" pic. Future Aggie Soccer player...... ;)

Grant's 2yr -- {Bryan/College Station Children Photographer}

2009-08-29T23:01:00.003-05:00

Oh Mr. Grant! How you made me work! I see this boy all the time and he did NOT want to be my pal for our session. No smiles and run, run! It does crack me up though. Here are a few...

Miley is 1! -- {Bryan/College Station Childrens Photographer}

2009-08-27T11:30:00.002-05:00

I had a fun session with Miss Miley yesterday. She loved playing peek a boo and was happy the whole time (and very busy I might add, lol). Here is a peek...

The return of Miss Kinsley -- {Bryan/College Station Children Photographer}

2009-08-25T12:29:00.004-05:00

Another beautiful session with Kinsley. We almost got rained out again. I was saying my prayers that the rain would go around us. IT DID! We had a few sprinkles and then it stopped. It also went from having a breeze, to still and humid! Gotta love our Texas weather! HOT! Anyway, I was so excited I got some great pics of her with mom and dad and she was smiling. :) Enjoy the preview...

My new favorite! -- {Bryan/College Station Children Photographer

2009-08-13T12:07:00.003-05:00

After I posted a couple of sneak peeks I finally got back to working on Lauren's pictures. I have to say this has been my FAVORITE session to edit! I just keep finding more and more pictures that I love!!! I wanted to post my new favorite and torture Tina just a little bit more with her beautiful child! lol We may have to sit down and do your order together because you are going to have a hard time deciding! ;) Again, LOVED this session!

Amanda's maternity -- {Bryan/College Station Maternity Photographer}

2009-08-12T18:02:00.004-05:00

OH WHAT FUN WE HAD! Amanda and I go WAY back. We use to work together and there were a lot of memories made in our off time! lol I was so happy to reconnect with her and now be able to make memories for this huge part of her beautiful life. Baby Jacob will be arriving before long and they will have a new adventure. I can't wait to get my hands on this lil bundle. He has a beautiful room and loving parents that are ready! So my sweet friend, here is your peek!

Lauren is 3! -- {Bryan/College Station Children Photographer}

2009-08-10T18:25:00.002-05:00

Lauren was so much fun to photograph. She had me cracking up! She did lot's of pointing and hiding behind her hands. Once she started running back and forth from me, she let loose. It was just a blast and pleasure to capture her personality! Here are a few...

Kinsley 6mth -- {Bryan/College Station Children Photographer}

2009-08-09T16:49:00.002-05:00

This was a short but sweet session. We had to cut it short due to rain. We plan on making it up in a couple of weeks. Here are a few from the session. Kristin, let me know if you like this one for your blog. I can't wait to continue our session. I just LOVE Kinsley's outfit!!

Avery is 1! -- {Bryan/College Station Children Photographer}

2009-07-27T13:23:00.003-05:00

Oh this sweet girl melted my heart instantly! I had such a blast with her! Mom and Dad were also as sweet as can be! It was definitely a hot morning but got some great shots. Can't wait to work on the rest but here is a sneak peek for you!

Beautiful Urban Maternity--{Bryan/College Station Maternity Photographer}

2009-07-21T16:26:00.008-05:00

My baby is 2 -- {Bryan/College Station Photographer}

2009-06-29T17:19:00.004-05:00

Where has the time gone? My sweet baby girl has turned 2! We ventured out (way to late that morning, more like afternoon) and tried to get a few shots of the birthday girl. It was too close to lunch and way too hot. I did manage to get a few of her though. I hope to have more to come. I have other ideas! ;) Anyway, Happy Birthday my sweet Carrington!

I wanted a few with her hair down. It is so weird to see it not in a bow. It did turn out way cuter than I expected.

An amazing wedding {Bryan/College Station Photographer}

2009-06-19T18:39:00.002-05:00

Ok, so I really have a lot to catch up on. A woman's work is never done, right? Recently I was asked to help second shoot for my amazing friend Bethany from Bella Amadis Photography in Austin. This wedding was fab! An absolutely fun Bride, Groom and wedding party. They made me feel so welcome! It really makes my job fun when everyone has a good time and wants to include you in it. Here are some of the images from the day.

The decorations were so fab! The bride had a bird cage veil (I believe that's what it is called, lol) with a peacock feather and all the decor had them also. It was stunning. The wedding planner April did an amazing job!

Look how sweet the groom is

The brides gorgeous sister

Cody taking a break, isn't she beautiful!

I think this stolen moment is my favorite of the day

This just shows you how fun this bride and groom were

Don't you love the getaway car

I just love weddings........:)

2 sweet girls {Bryan/College Station Photographer}

2009-06-03T11:07:00.005-05:00

Mommy love

2009-04-28T23:20:00.003-05:00

Ok, so I have to say I am totally in love with this picture! I wanted to add another post because this picture shows so much sweetness and love of a mother and child. I'm just gushing! My gorgeous friend is such a patient and loving mother (and you gotta love that we spell our name the same :) ). Happy Mother's Day Stef!

2009-04-27T17:22:00.002-05:00

I have known this sweet family for a few years now. We were lucky to be in a play group with Big M. I was so excited when I got to take their family pictures. These kids are the sweetest and cutest little things. Poor little M feel as soon as we got there and was bleeding. She was such a big girl though and didn't fuss a bit about pictures. Big M was my talking buddy and baby L was a happy little thang! We had a lot of wind yesterday which can be a little bit of a challenge. We got some really great photos though. Thanks again guy's!

This was the first picture I took of the session and Big M just cracked me up. He was ready to go!

Miss K in the Bluebonnets

2009-04-09T14:29:00.002-05:00

2009-03-30T09:26:00.002-05:00

Well I got to take pictues of the kids in the bluebonnets yesterday. I didn't get as many of Carrington as I would have liked. Once she got on the sunglasses they didn't come off for very long. She loves them. I may take her again this week. Hope you all like them! :)

Quote

2008-12-02T09:31:00.003-06:00

Ok, so I have never been good about journaling on here but I just loved this quote and it made me reflect on life and the struggles we all go through.

"Sometimes you just have to take the leap and build your wings on the way down" - author unknown

It really just sums it up for me. No matter where you are in your life there are risk. If we don't leap forward and learn we may never be fulfilled. We may grow old and gray and wish we would have taken more leaps. I am constantly building my wings. I hope one day they will be big and strong. Sometimes they get wet and seem like they are not going to grow but in the end faith makes them strong! If we all hold hands and support one another, we can all build our wings! :)

This holiday season lets all stop and remember why we are here. Enjoy your time with family and friends and embrace the new year with faith, love and hope!

Much love--xoxo

Austin weekend

2008-10-15T23:21:00.002-05:00

This last weekend I had the wonderful opportunity to meet some great photographers who I have gotten to know over the last year. We hit some great spots in Austin. I am going to post a few of my kids and will post more from our meetup when I get some more time. I had such a blast with these girls and made some great new friends! My kids were so good! Thank you my babies!

Tagged

2008-10-06T16:05:00.002-05:00

Ok, so I have been tagged by my lovely friend Bethany. It is my first time, lol! I don't know who really follows my blog but I will tag a few people and find out I guess. So hear goes......

Grab the nearest book.
Open the book to page 56.
Find the fifth sentence.
Post the text of the next two to five sentences in your blog along with these instructions.
Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.
Tag five other people to do the same.

so my book is....I know you are going to love this...........SEX AND THE CITY!!!!

"Gee, Ray, I have no idea," Amalita said. She was just smiling now. "Maybe it has something to do with Brewster."

"That goddamned little shit actor, " Ray said. "You mean, those lies that I told him about you because I wanted to get him for myself? Well, shit, honey, can you blame me? He had the biggest willy in L.A.

Wow, right? Sorry, I could go on because the next couple sentences are so funny but I better censor that right now! LOL

I have to say that it is so.....weird that of all pages to be picked, it is the one where my marker is. LOL I obviously didn't get very far into this book and I have had it for several years. I guess that is what kids do to you! :)

Oh, and Bethany, mine is totally opposite of yours, lol!

I tag anyone who reads this, lol!

Mr. and Mrs. Gallagher

2008-10-06T10:41:00.007-05:00

Congrat's guy's! Are you still getting use to hearing that, Mr and Mrs. Gallagher? I hope you had an amazing honeymoon! Thanks for letting me share in your beautiful day. Here are a few pics for you.

Well, what a fab and busy weekend I had! My amazingly talented friend came to help me with a wedding and then we had a little photo shoot before they left town. I had such a blast and got some great images. Had to post these in between working on other sessions. Bethany had this adorable petti skirt and now I MUST buy one. Isn't it the sweetest. I will be updating more this week with other sessions. Later!

Carrington 1yr

2008-06-25T15:26:00.008-05:00

Carrington is 1! It's so hard to believe. This year has gone way to fast. We did her cake smashing pictures. Thanks to my mom for helping. It was a lot of hard work. She didn't care about mashing the cake but played in the icing. I guess she did mash it with her foot :)! I am so glad I did these!

Ok, I realized that I never posted this! So.....here it is 3mths later, lol!

Engagement

2008-06-24T11:00:00.004-05:00

Class

2008-04-19T00:36:00.001-05:00

Here are some pics I took a few days ago for my class I am taking. McKennon is getting down the mean Mallow look! He can also be a little too cheesy!

Carrington 9mths

2008-04-18T16:11:00.001-05:00

Here are Carrington's 9mth pics. Don't you love these lil' leg warmers. I want to get more.....

Kids

2008-04-18T11:23:00.000-05:00

Here are some pics I have taken with my new lens. It is diff. not being able to zoom. It is a prime lens (stays at 50mm). I do love it but still playing around with it. I am def. getting more comfortable with it. These are some bluebonnet pics we did. We had too harsh of light so we dealt with what we had. The kids did not want to cooperate. Carrington just wanted to play with the flowers and McKennon wanted to play with his friend Jaxson. He cooperated at the end but only under the shade tree. Carrington is squishing up her nose all the time now. It is so funny. you will prob. be seeing this in a lot of photos to come.... Uh, my life! Love to all!

My first post- Happy Easter!

2008-03-20T22:27:00.000-05:00

So here goes my first post. I took some pics of the kids. McK didn't want to have his pic taken. He was more interested in his new lawnmower. As you see in the pic he was telling me "I am done". Lil C was my model bunny though. They are not the best but cute. I can't wait to get my new lens next week. I will post more pics when I get it. Till then.....
