Family Portrait: Melanie

I did family portraits a little while back for Melanie and her two precious boys Ethan and Cayden. They were a blast to shoot and brought their own cowboy hats and guitars. We got some nice studio shots then went outside for some sunny Texas style photos. And of course I had to break out the bubbles at the end because who doesn't like bubbles?

Wedding: Carmen + Troy Part 2 - The Carrington Girls

Today I am posting the rest of Carmen and Troy's wedding images - more specifically the images of Carmen's three girls. They first greeted me with a choreographed dance routine and offers to help me build my portfolio if I ever needed models, and they only got more energetic from there. I would like to thank the Carrington girls for teaching me how to "pop it", that lighting umbrellas make great props, and of course that Katy Perry is eminently dancable.

Wedding: Troy + Carmen

It was damp and muddy day when Troy and Carmen said I do, but the sun was shining and it was the day before Valentine's Day so how could it not be romantic? Carmen wore her "Urban Boots" and made the walk down the trail at The Star of Texas Bed and Breakfast where Troy had proposed, and had the ceremony under the glistening bottle trees.

They called it an elopement for five, and it was really beautiful the way they incorporated Carmen three lovely daughters into the ceremony. I thank Troy and Carmen for letting me get to know their family and photograph it's being - I wish them all the happiness in the world!

Family Portraits: The Trotts

I had a portrait session with the Trott family recently and I had a blast with them and their four beautiful children. I set up my antique iron bed in the yard and we had one of my more unique family sessions complete with a pillow fight and flying feathers! The kids really enjoyed it and I hope everyone else does too. So thank you Alexandra, George, Samuel, Isiah, Envy, and Rookie for indulging one of my more unusual ideas!

Boudoir Session: Miss C*

*Real names are never used to protect our sexy clients from the prying eyes of Google

I've been so bad about blogging! I'll try to make up for it though y posting some awesome boudoir for you!

I did a session for Miss C* not too long ago and the images are some of the best I've done if I do say so myself. The session was done in honor of Miss C*'s up coming wedding as a gift for her groom. I think he'll like it better than a pair of cuff links!

We used the 55 Trailer at the beautiful Star of Texas Bed and Breakfast which fit the vintage pin up theme perfectly. Kalle Martin provided excellent 1960's era hair and make up to complete the look. With Miss C's killer boots and trench coat I think we had the Ann Margaret thing down pat!

Engagement Session: Melissa & Brian

Back when I was massively pregnant (yes it was awhile ago) I spent an awesome afternoon running around downtown Brownwood with Melissa and Brian shooting their engagement portraits. It was harder than usual to do my patented laying on the ground move we still got great pictures of a fun couple! I can't wait to see what we get at their wedding in April! Here are the highlights from Melissa and Brian's engagement.
