I have been traveling so much these past few weeks. First, I went to Arlington, TX for a week long class at Texas School and then came home for a day and a half before heading back out to Atlanta. I am in Atlanta as we speak working on a task force for The Professional Photographers of America. Life is good and busy. I'll be heading home late tomorrow and I can't wait! I have a huge to-do list, a packed schedule and I miss my guys! Being a working and traveling Mommy is hard. If it weren't for Steven (my husband) I don't know how I would do it. I'm so grateful for him.

I have not been a great blogger these days but I promise to get back on track next week. In the meantime, would you like to see a joyous amazing smile? I thought so. I love, love, love this image. I want a huge canvas of it in my studio. It just makes me smile too every time I look at it. I hope it makes you smile too.

I love these images and I loved photographing this little guy. Isn't he the sweetest thing?! The best part...Dad was in charge of Nolan's outfit! Bravo Dad! Look how beautifully his outfit sets off those awesome eyes!




I love the one above. Look at his cute little toes in the left image and his folded hands on the right! This next one was Mom and I's fave. She ordered a beautiful gallery wrapped canvas of it. It was so cute I was tempted to keep it!
Thanks Nolan & Company! I love working with you guys.

I know that I have been MIA on the blog. We moved the studio last week and it has been hectic as you can imagine. We are completely in the new (and improved) space but it's still a bit of a mess. I am seeing clients though and we're getting there! It's a great space and I know you all are going to love it! I'll post some pictures of the new space soon. In the meantime, here's the new information:

My first appointment was with Emi's Mom to take a look at her session from a few weeks ago. Here are a few of her amazing faces. Whenever I look at that big joyful smile it makes me smile too. Her Mom's name is Joy and has an amazing smile herself so little Emi comes by it quite naturally. Isn't she just beautiful? When I was photographing her all I had to do was shake my head back and forth and she would crack up. It was really funny.



I hope you enjoyed that little ray of sunshine on this cloudy (at least here in Houston) Thursday morning!
I love it when one of my clients refers their friends. That tells me that I am doing something right! Cullom and his Mom were awesome to work with and we had a really fun session. Here are a few from our recent session for you to enjoy too!
I just bought this amazing little bench from Wisteria and this was my first shoot with it. It is so cute!
Mom and Dad ended up getting a series of 3 canvases- the one above, this next one and one other like it. It's going to look great!
Happy Wednesday everyone!

I admit it, I am obsessed with cute baby hats. It all started last year when I had a promotion called The White Sale. The basic concept was high energy images photographed on a white background. Clients were encouraged to bring their kids in bright clothing and, if they donated a hat to my studio collection, they got a free 8x10 from the session. So, between all those fun hats and my own purchases, we have a cute little hat collection at the studio. Oh, and if you participated in The White Sale last year (or missed it!) here's a heads up...we'll be doing it again in May! The specific date is being decided upon and we'll announce it soon.

Anyway, back to today...Travis came in today for his 8 month session. He is one of my First Year Collection babies. After I photographed him in all of his cute little outfits, we grabbed one of my hats and shot these gems. The hat was purchased on Etsy. If you also have an obsession with cute handmade things like this then you should definitely head over to Etsy and part with some of your hard earned money. Beware though, you might just be there browsing for hours!

Hope you are all having a great weekend! Stay tuned for The Monday Lesson next week- especially if you are trying to photograph your child in the bluebonnets this year! (tease, tease!)

I wish you would have had this lesson a few weeks ago when I "tried" to take pictures of Connor and Hannah! I can't wait to read it for next year.
