Everett was the first baby I photographed after getting back from my Southeast Asia trip (about 17 hours after my flight landed!) and he was just perfect.  He was such a sweet boy, as you can see!  He's also the first baby on both sides of his family, so there's a lot of love going around for this guy!

Well, hello there!  It was very nice to meet you, little buddy!

I love photographing in new spots and this one also happened to be where this amazing couple got engaged!  I loved using the trees to create depth.  For those who don't know Houston, this spot is only a few minutes away from downtown!

They aren't finding out the gender of the baby until birth and I'm so excited!  I love it when people do that.

Ali is so sweet and gave me a lot of good tips for my trip to Bali.  They were really useful!

This last one is one of my favorites.

Congratulations!  Can't wait to meet the little one.

Sean and Nat are two of my closest friends, which means that this was quite possibly my favorite engagement session ever.  Not only do I love the images, but the people in them are just so dear to my heart.  I'm so glad we did this!  This first image is a definite favorite of mine.

The next...four are also favorite!

Ok, maybe every image is a favorite.

I love you two!  You're both my favorite .

This is one of my favorite families!  I love getting together with these guys and watching C grow!  This was the 5th time I've photographed them and it just gets easier and easier.  C has always been a looker, but he seems to get more and more handsome every time I see him.

Happy Birthday little buddy!

I photographed L when she was much younger and now she's walking all over the place and trying to be as independent as she can!  We started off in her room and I love the way light pink walls reflect light into little faces.  Beautiful

We called these her "jazz hands" which is how she held them every time she walked around.  So cute!

Happy birthday!

I photographed Leighton last year as a newborn and I loved getting to see her as an almost-1-year-old!  Those cheeks!

Ha, I love the hair flying behind her!

There aren't too many pictures of Leighton enjoying her cake, but this is a cute one!  Despite normally being fearless and adventurous, she decided she didn't like too much frosting on her hands so it didn't last long (two of my sister's kids cried at their first birthdays when we tried to make them eat a cupcake; I think some kids just aren't cake/frosting people).  Happy Birthday Leighton!

Max isn't a newborn anymore, but his was one of the many this last summer that never got blogged.  When I realized that I couldn't resist showing off a few of my favorites!  He was such a sweet, adorable newborn, and nothing has changed now that he's all grown up and five months old.

One of my favorite scale shots I've taken.

Here he is now!  Isn't he the cutest thing?!  That little bow-tie...and that hat...boy is going to have to fight off the ladies when he's older.

N, if you get ever get tired of his cuteness I'll take him!

You may remember this family from Kelly's maternity session, and Sloan's newborn and 9 month session.  It was such a blast to get together with them all!

Sloan is such a sweetie and sure loves his mama!

I about died when I saw these shoes.  Love them.

Sloan looks adorable and Aidan is cracking me up in this one!

Aidan is such a sweet big brother.  He was very cooperative every time we did a brothers shot!

Looks like this crack me up and then I usually get a more natural "normal" smile after they pull a face like this!

I'm pretty sure this is the kind of play that most dads do with their sons.

These next three are hilarious. This kid changed his expression so quickly over just a few seconds.  The first is my favorite!

 I had a great time!  Can't wait until I see you again .

Adrian brought his parents over last month so I could get some shots of this beautiful new family.   I LOVE everything about this shot.

He was a rather smiley little guy!  Always love that .

What a beautiful baby, right?!?

I think this is one of the best open-eyes smiles I've captured on a newborn!  I've only seen a handful during a session, but this guy must be especially happy to be living on the outside .

Thanks for coming out and bringing your perfect baby!

Jenny and Danny picked a great location and then we all fought off mosquitoes like crazy.  They said a swarm of them just kept following me!  I'm amazed there's still a place in Houston with this much green after the drought this summer.

I have one thing to say here - that baby is going to be dang cute.

Love this spot!
