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 with my husband and our dog, Cocoa. Faith, family, friends, food, fashion & 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!

Adoption Days | Houston Family Photographer

Posted inbaby,celebrating adoption,children,families

For those of you who have followed my blog from the early days, you will recognize this style of showcasing my images.  I used to do these ‘lightbox galleries’ almost exclusively until I fell in love with collages and other fun ways to display your photographs.  But because I’m so behind on blogging sessions, you may see a few of these again here and there because it’s, well, easier for me deepending on my workload.  Blah, blah, blah.

Okay…back to much more important things, like the R Family here who finally got to celebrate their son becoming legally theirs per the state of Texas.  YAY!!!  What a fun and exciting time for them. It was such a pleasure to meet and get a glimpse of the overwhelming love of this family.  Here were just a few of my favorites from our session.  Hope you enjoy.

Wall Display Options | Baby Photographer The Woodlands

Posted inbaby,children,families,I don't know what to do with my photos

Here is an example of three options I’ve designed for my friend who is looking to display photos from our sessions together above her stairway.

I’m sure you are wondering what the canvas sizes are for these displays.  No problem.  Here goes, with the largest sizes listed first.

Option A:  two 20X24′s, two 12X16′s and two 14X16′s

Option B:  one 32X20, two 16X20′s and three 10X10′s

Option C: two 20X24′s, one 16X20, two 10X20′s and one 14X16

Which one do you like best?:-)

I love option B!

Dallas

I like the idea of the pictures flowing with the staircase, so option B for me, but I’d add more to make it more full.

Leigh

Option A – maybe yo could help me figure out which photos to enlarge so that I can order them asap! Do you have the time?

Karen

Definitely option B for me! I just think it has a better flow! Very cute Pics by the way!

Thank you so much Karen for the feedback and positive words on my work. :-)

Found: Turtle | Houston Photographer

Posted inpersonal; ramblings & business stuff,pets

We found a turtle in our yard.  We kept him and called him ours all for about one hour.  He was not our turtle for long. We offered him the most pristine, organic lettuce as we were certain he would chow down.  To our surprise, he (somewhat rudely) rejected it our hospitality.  Even though overall (besides rejecting the finest lettuce around) quite friendly with us, he clearly had a strong desire to get back to home.  We weren’t real sure where his home was so we ended up taking him over to a small pond area in our neighborhood where we hope that he finds some friends.  Nice meeting you little turtle.  We wish you the best.  :-)
