Brand New! { Katy Newborn Photographer }

When Jennifer emailed me about a newborn session for her soon-to-be-born second son, I was thrilled. I had followed her blog, via the blog of close mutual friend, for quite some time. Jennifer and Bryan had prayed for, yearned for, and pleaded with God for this addition to their family. Unbeknownst to me, while I was following her journey to her newest darling, she was following our journey through Campbell's illness. We both agreed we had been blessed by the faithful God, who walked us each through incredibly difficult trials.

Knowing her journey to get to Colin made it even sweeter to photograph this little darling and their new family of FOUR. They truly are incredibly sweet, and this boy is blessed to be born to parents who wanted him oh so badly.

What do I say about this precious family? Not only are they as cute as can be and a joy to photograph, they are also among my very close friends. I love watching these sweet girls get older!

P.S. how adorable are their outfits??

Lori & Bobby - Revisited! { Houston Engagement Photographer }

If you remember back to this session with Lori & Bobby, we got rained out halfway through. We met up on a Sunday afternoon recently to finish our session. The weather this time did not disappoint (only slightly chilly. Hello arctic blast!). Lori & Bobby do not disappoint either. They are cute, funny, and obviously smitten.

Thanks for another great afternoon guys! You are a joy to know and photograph. May the two of you be blessed with a hundred happy years together!

Campbell { Cypress Child Photographer }

There are a myriad (awesome word) of reasons I don't have more full-out photo sessions with Campbell. #1 She is unbelievably uncooperative. Seriously, for a child who is SO well-behaved, she absolutely does not respond to "Campbell, look at the camera!". And #2 I generally always feel guilty if I work on my own stuff when I have client images to edit...which is basically all the time.

But I often feel sad that I am handing out fully edited and ready to print images to clients and the pictures of my precious girl often sit unedited and almost always unprinted on my hard-drive. My mother frequently refers to herself as the plumber's wife (cause you know, the plumber's wife has leaky faucets...and the photographer's mother doesn't have good pictures of her granddaughter.)

So Campbell and I made a stop today as we ran errands and "pwayed" for a bit. Angela and Lori, forgive me as I took a brief break today from editing your sessions, to edit my own. I love these images, from that beaver tooth smile to that prissy walk to those huge blue eyes, these represent all the little details of her that I obsess over day in and day out. What a gift she is.

So without further ado, the girl I love more than any other.

D Family { Katy Family Photographer }

The sister/sister-in-law/aunt of this sweet family contacted me about purchasing a photo session for her sister and fam for Christmas. This little family of three is stationed in California currently, where dad is serving in the Navy and was in Houston for the holidays.

We braved the coooold morning and barely missed the rain, but we sure were blessed with a happy baby Trey! This kid had an endless supply of hilarious expressions!
