This is a snapshot of how I want Mia to remember her childhood.......carefree and magical.

Now with bigger images.....

I took family pictures for my good friend Alisha, a fellow photographer, last Saturday. We had a blast and talked shop and even took a few pictures of her family. These are just a few that I've had a chance to play with.

The ladies of PAWYLIE......




Yesterday I had a quick photoshoot with the ladies of Pediatric Associates of Wylie. They were a lot of fun and handled the wind and heat very well.....better than I did. I should have taken a picture of how RED my face was when we finished the shoot. Love that Texas weather!

I just wanted to post about how great these women are. If you are in the Plano/Wylie area and are in need of a pediatrician these are definitely the guys......uh...I mean girls to go too. I take my own daughter to Dr. Lanman and I just think she is wonderful. The minute you walk in the door you are greeted like you are a member of the family. They are all three very sweet, caring and attentive doctors. The nurses are awesome too!!

I highly recommend them!!


Thanks Dr. Lanman, Dr. Hayes and Dr. Ahad for a fun lunch hour photoshoot!

sweet baby boy.....

I had the honor of photographing the first pictures of this precious baby boy last friday. We set up in the living room and had a great time getting some really sweet pictures. It really was a very laid back session with lullabies playing in the background. I got to chat with mom, dad and nana while I snapped away. I know I keep saying this, but I LOVE my job!!!

Check out those adorable little feet!

I love this one where you can see his perfect little belly button. The little guy is only 1 week old and his umbilical cord had already fallen off! I was so excited because it's great to have a cute belly button in a few of the shots!

So far this is my favorite. I love that little sleepy yawn!

And one of the new family. Congratulations!

This could be a long post......

On Wednesday I headed north to this awesome family's beautiful home for a little fun. We started off inside, but quickly moved outside once we realized that it was going to be a great evening. We had SO much fun! I even got in the sandbox and brought a little sand home with me. Not in my camera, but there was plenty in my clothes. Scroll down and see the shot I got and you'll see that it was TOTALLY worth it!

There were SO many that I loved that I couldn't just narrow it down to 3-4 this time so here is a super long post. Can't wait to show you the rest!
Thanks for the fun evening!













and a different version......as requested ;)


and I just to make sure I don't leave out ANY family members......isn't this the cutest dog EVER?

Just for fun......

Yesterday I played around with my flash and backdrop and Mia was more than happy to pose for me.....FINALLY! I've been waiting 2 1/2 years for her to willingly model for me. I took about 150 pictures of her that look pretty much the same, but this one I just love! If she would have let me fix her hair and put clothes on her it would have been tons better, but.......NO WAY! Mia had just gotten up from her nap and she was ready to play and that means...diaper ONLY! Silly girl! Where did she get such expressive looks? Click to see the larger version. It's much better larger. ;)

July 4th

So I'm a little late with this, but it was a busy weekend!

We had a great 4th. Saylor and I made kebobs on the grill and just hung out and did a lot of nothing. In the evening we went our friends Jill and Brian and their daughter to watch the fireworks. We had fun and the girls had an absolute BLAST! They got to ride in the wagon....that's Jill pulling it and they even ran around in the street........calm down MOM the street was closed and we set up our lawn chairs on the grass median and watched the girls chase each other. It was a great time!




Horrible street lamp lighting, but I still love this picture!

There are lots more, but I have work I should be doing right now instead of blogging!!

So behind I'll never catch up......

I have had quite a busy week. I don't think I will ever be able to blog it all. First we had Saylor's Grandmother and Aunt visit us from Maryland. I have pictures of the stockyards, and Ft. Worth zoo that need to be put on here. Then my mom and dad came and stayed with us for 4 days. Mia LOVED all the attention she got and I LOVED that my Dad (mom and I helped) fixed my garage door for us. YEAH DAD! Then Saturday morning I had a session with a FABULOUS family. So we'll start there and work backwards. ;)


This family are good friends of mine. They go to church with us and Dr. Lanman was nice enough to let me put a display of my photos in her pediatric office. I just think this is about one of the NICEST families I have ever met. The kids are pretty sweet too. We met at the Mandalay Canal in Los Colinas and had a ton of fun. We just missed the rain too, because it started to pour as I was leaving. Here are just a few of my favorites.....it was REALLY, REALLY hard to choose just a few.
As always....click the pic to see it larger!
Little Miss "K" she is so cute. She is very girly and I just LOVE that about her!
"B"........My daughter's future husband. Hee hee ;) Just joking, but isn't he the most handsome little boy you've ever seen?
The whole family.
And I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this one. The were talking about their kids and laughing together. I tried something a little different with my post processing......I think I like it!
Have a great week everyone!
