Houston Winter Wonderland

5 Comments

It’s not a hurricane… It’s SNOW?!! This will be my first Winter in Houston, TX. It looks like I won’t be able to escape the snow no matter where I live. 🙂

Typically, Houston will get a bit of snow every 4 – 6 years during the Winter. There have been estimates that some areas of Houston will see 4-5″ today. Snowball fight anyone? :).

This is the earliest snow in Houston since 1889. Measurable snow has NEVER been seen in back-to-back winters. We’re breaking records here, people!

I Love High School Seniors

3 Comments

I would love to shoot high school seniors all day long! They’re young, beautiful, and are somehow all master posers. Oh, and they have totally rockin’ style.

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you may recognize this one. I’ve had the privilege of photographing her and her family several times in the last few years!

Those eyes! Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. Enough said.

For all you photo nerds, this last one was shot at f1.2!

Enjoy the rest of your senior year!

Sara & Ben

I love this family. And not just these two beautiful people. I’ve photographed Sara’s whole family…several times. And yes, they’re all just as stunning as her!

I also love a good trade! I met up with Sara in LA and she gave me a private cooking class! When Ben got home we went out on the town, and then up to their rooftop! They live in an amazing apartment right in downtown LA. They watched Michael Jackson’s funeral from their patio. I was drooling over the amazing amenities their building had to offer and it made me so want to move to LA.

LOVE this one! Definitely favorite.

Another favorite!

I had to post this last one again. Awesomeness.

I had such a blast with the cooking class and discovering cool spots around LA! Thanks so much for the trade Sara!

Happy Black Friday!

Instead of spending Black Friday heading to the stores and acting like animals, it seemed like a better idea to head to the Houston Zoo to actually see animals.  My boyfriend thought it would be a good idea (it was free) 😉

He thought I should have more photos of myself on my blog so I let him practice.  This was his first time shooting with manual controls!  He did an amazing job and enjoyed the opportunity of making me feel awkward by posing me in busy walkways :).

My bf kept asking for directions to the evil petting zoo.  He really wanted to see a goat eat a can. I just wanted some hand sanitizer.

This duck had a lot of attitude. The bf really thought this bird should get some gold chains and a posse.

I taught him all about finding good light (even in a bat cave).

One of those busy walkways where he made me stand for 5 minutes (he tricked me into looking happy). 😉

He really wanted one of us to get a picture petting the large cats, but I didn’t think it was such a good idea.

Oh my…

All pictures shot by him, edited by me.
