South Family
This is the third time I've photographed this family and I can't believe how big that little blondie got. Their first family pictures are here (if you can look at them fast enough before you get redirected back to my current site) and there are a couple of them last year here.
I didn't notice until now, but this first shot is so similar to the first shot from their first photo shoot!

E (the older one) still recalls when we did pictures at "the castle." What a memory that kid has!

These kiddos were unbelievably cooperative. They were so easy. Thanks guys!

While I was traveling I had so many awesome photo shoots so I'm going to post just a few pictures from each for the next few weeks!
My first shoot was with this cute little family! My old roommate is this mama's sister and I couldn't believe how adorable these kids were.

I love her serious look.

For some reason I just love this one!

K is a photographer down in League City and wanted to get together to do a lifestyle shoot with her cute family! Here are just a few.
For some reason, I really love this first one. G got some air!

This one cracks me up. They were trying to get J to sit with the family, but he wanted nothing to do with them (for about a minute). Ah, the middle child.

I LOVE this one too! The way A and G turned around to look at me is just so precious.

I love it when people bring fun, colorful props and my stools matched their colors perfectly!

Kendra & Hadley – Minneapolis
It's official, I LOVE Minneapolis! I have more pictures to post from my trip, but first I did this photo shoot with this cute girl and her mama, who drove down from North Dakota! Kendra (along with some friends) runs a photography business in Fargo and I'm so flattered that she made the drive down to do some pictures! Of course, she did get to see her sisters while she was there as well (and they helped choose the location, thanks!). During my time with them I found out that Kendra has 3 sisters and 1 brother. So, in order - 2 girls, then a boy, then identical twin girls. That is MY family! So funny.
Kendra's sisters gave us a general location for a shoot, basically a cool area of Minneapolis, and I searched for it on google maps and then did street view. I instantly found this amazing multi-colored wall. I may have to make another trip in the summer just to discover more spots like this!
I think this first one of Hadley looks so sweet. You can see the snow that was falling on us!


Isn't it awesome?! I want one. Some building owner in Houston please do this.

Kendra managed to get this 12-month pettiskirt on Hadley's 2-yr-old body (thank you elastic). Doesn't it make you want to go buy one for your little girl?? I love her shoes and the gray shirt!

Drove to another spot that I happened to spot during the drive. Good thing I wore my rain boots as the snow was very deep and I was in the midst of it! I tried to clear a spot for the two, but Hadley kept complaining about her feet being cold if she was set down. So strange...:)

I did these all in the airport or on the plane today! There are tons more, but I couldn't wait to get a few up

When I was in California in October (I know, this is a long time coming), I was buying some jewelry from Leisa (check it out here, I LOVE her stuff) and she asked if I did trades. Absolutely I do! I got to get way more jewelry than I was planning on
and she got a photo shoot of her adorable family. It happened to be a really rainy week and we had to cancel on the day we planned for, but last minute Leisa was able to pull together everything for the shoot on another day. Her husband was at work and happened to be wearing that shirt (which has orange stripes) so she planned their outfits around it and I can't believe how cute it turned out (well, I can, since she is so darn crafty).
They ordered this one for their home, I know it will look awesome!

I think this one is soooo darling. I LOVE pictures of my older siblings holding me when I was a baby (though unless my name is written on the back it becomes a guessing game of which twin is it).

This little guy was right around 6 months and couldn't be happier!





Chances are, if you ever see me wearing jewelry, it came from her. Thanks again!
