Houston Children's Photographer bio picture
  • I like to think I catch the divine in the ordinary using natural light and everyday settings. My style is pretty simple. It’s a dab of traditional studio (for my youngest clients) mixed with modern lifestyle portraiture. Candid shots are my favorite. I want to capture your child’s spirit and personality, even if that's not a traditional smile. Kid's are my specialty, but also enjoy capturing the entire family, from newborns to high school seniors. I shoot on location in Houston, Texas and surrounding areas. I'm from a small East Texas town and have hippy-like tendencies. After college, I ventured to the city, which is now 'home' and includes my husband and our doggies. Faith, family, friends, food, fashion and fabrics consume my mind when the shutter is not clicking. Custom photography is a luxury, but I promise it will be worth every penny. I look forward to sharing my love of photography with you and your family! {photo credit to urban grey photography}

Family Fun | Woodlands Child Photography

Posted in baby, I don't know what to do with my photos

Take a nice photo and blow it up real big.  No I’m not talking about 11X14 big because in the world of photography that is not all that big.  I’m talking about 20X30 big.  Like the photo below I took of my adorable nephew.

Then put that 20X30 print in a 26X36 matted frame.  Then hang that baby over your fireplace and you get something like this:

And if that doesn’t put a smile on your face every day, I’m not sure what will. :-)  If you’re going to take the time and money to invest in custom portraits, be sure to display them where you can enjoy them daily!

Maternity by the Pool | Houston Photographer

Posted in maternity

What a privilege to photograph this mom to be.  This is will be her 5th baby boy.  Thank you for such a fun session!  Can’t wait to meet the little guy and photograph his entrance into the world.  This is my ‘by the pool’ post which I processed in a faded, slightly vintage style. There will be a separate post with more pictures from this session soon, in full color!;-)

Vintage Wash | Family Portraits Spring Texas

Posted in baby, children, families

I’ve been playing around with post processing recently.  Trying to find another ‘look’ for some of my photographs.  This style that I’ve applied to these images, as you can see, is a little washed out and muted compared to my normal style.  I have no intention in changing my traditional style of processing, but I think it’s good to branch out now and then and try something a little different.  What do you think?

The Faces of a Baby | Houston Child Photographer

Posted in baby, I don't know what to do with my photos

A sort of ‘photo booth’ I took of my nephew from months ago.  I know, I know…I’m a bad aunt at times.  Better late than never. ;-)  This represents a photo collage that I can design for my clients, which is made for print.  This would be a 20X20 sized photo or canvas.  I loved this particular day when my nephew gave us a series of different faces.  Can you guess what that very last face is??  he-he!  I’m sure you mom’s out there are familiar with such a face.  One day, my nephew will certainly kill me for posting!  Oh well, what are aunt’s for?

Photograph Sizes | Houston Family Photographer

Posted in baby, families, I don't know what to do with my photos

Let’s say you were thinking about hanging a large canvas over the bed in your master bedroom, which likely has a king size bed.  I want you to see below how an 11X14, 16X24, 20X30 and 30X40 (from a recent session I took) would look on such a wall.  You would laugh if I showed you how tiny the 8X10 was on the wall.  It was so sad, I could not even post it.  ha!  Don’t be afraid to go big!

Spectacular Six Month Old | The Woodlands, Texas Children’s Photographer

Posted in baby, children, families

What a joy to photograph children again and again. I’ve been privileged to photograph this little guy three times now. At only 6 months old, he is already crawling lightning fast, sitting up with no help and almost standing on his own.  It was so much fun hanging out with him and his most wonderful parents and aunt, who tagged along for a few pics with her handsome nephew.  Great seeing you guys again. ;-)
