and appreciate how much time is actually put into a session--before, during, and after. In looking through these, I know how each image is special for it's own reasons. And then when you think that these are only a handful of the images that have been created so far this year--not just by me, but by every other person who owns a camera--wow! This digital age is truly something beyond comprehension!
I'd say these went a *little* better than last year.
[Before anyone asks: If you want to find a good spot for bluebonnet pictures, I'm sorry, but there is no magic answer. You *have* to put in the time to drive around. It really depends on safety (ie. not two feet from the highway), the time of day, weather, and many other factors. So be brave and get out there and look around. I did.]
1. I've worked hard to incorporate true lifestyle (well, as close to true lifestyle as is possible) photography in my family photo sessions simply because when I look through my own personal pictures, those are the images that I'm drawn to most.
2. We didn't know it at the time, but that sweet baby girl was battling some kind of awful sickness that landed her in the hospital for a bit. She's all recovered now, but poor thing...I can't believe she put up with the session in spite of her not feeling well. I look forward to getting to work with her again when she's her normal, happy self.
3. Her mommy has the.best.hair.ever. She's better than a Breck girl.

Three things about this newborn session:
1. Seriously the most smiley baby I have ever met. Ever. No matter what we did, he just seemed to feel the need to smile and I dig that about him.
2. Have I told you how much I enjoy working with this family? Well, just in case I haven't, I'll tell you again.
3. In the pics below, you'll see little man snuggled in a basket. I can't even begin to describe what we went through to get that shot, but let us take a moment to pause and appreciate our efforts.

or even playing in the big leagues, but at least I can say, "I knew him when..." ;-) Three things about this session:
1) I just about passed out when I pulled up to see that beautiful pond in the front yard.
2) The yawning pic was before our session really began...so glad I was fast enough to catch that moment.
3) Before having my own children and before this business, I used to think all babies looked alike. Nowadays, however, if you showed me a picture of every single newborn I've ever photographed, I could tell you their name. In this case, you could show me a picture of his daddy and I could still tell you who belonged to him. I could not get over their resemblance!
