Paul: Friendswood, TX Senior Portrait Photographer

____________________________________________________


Paul is all grown up! I've known him since he was a toddler, so seeing him this way makes me feel really old! I remember him being a very active kid-jumping, climbing, bouncing and staying up all night long! He has changed since those days but one thing that has remained the same is his smile :). Not very many people smile with their eyes, but Paul does, without even knowing it! It's the same smile he had as a young boy and the one that I tried to capture in these images...

3 minutes at the park

__________________________________________________


The cold weather has kept us indoors, but today I decided to brave it and take Maya outside! She's content with playing inside, but sometimes I feel like she needs to feel the wind...however, today was not a good day! Even though the sun was out it was blisteringly COLD! Where is this weather coming from?

I didn't last long...3 minutes and two passes down the slide for Maya was all I could take! She acted like it was a warm sunny day and didn't let a little wind and chill phase her. Ahhh....to be a kid again!

My oh my, time is flying by...

____________________________________________________


I know! I keeping on dwelling on how time is just passing by. I've realized that having a child makes time go by so much faster. In a way it's good and in a way not. Maya is almost 2 1/2 years old. I really cannot believe that I have had my child for that long. It feels like just yesterday I was feeding her sweet potatoes from a jar and bathing her in the kitchen sink.

Look at that smile! This is how I will always remember her....happy-go-lucky, not a care in the world, being content with riding in the back seat looking at the birds outside. I wish her to be like this... always.

Christine: Houston, TX Glamour Photographer

__________________________________________________________


I absolutely love this set of images of Christine, whom I have shot before along with her adorable daughter, Jocelyn. There is another boudoir set but we will keep those private....you need to leave SOMETHING to the imagination!

I really think that women should do something like this once in their life! Christine had been contemplating it for a while and I'm so happy she felt comfortable with me and trusted me to do it! I think the images have come out gorgeous! Christine looks stunning and I know that she felt beautiful while shooting!

Thanks, Christine!

Addison again @ 5 weeks

___________________________________________________________


I visited Addison again a couple of weeks ago in San Antonio. It's unbelievable how much babies change in 5 weeks! She's a very sweet, content and happy baby.

Maya enjoyed helping with feeding and entertaining her. She had the most fun breaking in Addison's books and her block set! She wanted to make sure everything was up to par for baby Addison!

Here are some images I caught while I was there!

Singin' In the Rain!

___________________________________________________________


Maya got a Dora umbrella a few weeks ago and couldn't wait to use it! Unfortunately, it had not rained.....until yesterday! When she heard the rain she immediately went in her room and found her umbrella! She was so excited to finally get to use it! I, of course, had to document it! AND-it was not a coincidence that she had on a Dora shirt! You'd think she liked Dora or something!

27 months

____________________________________________________________


Not that 27 months is a milestone or anything, but Maya is 27 months old today! For me, it's hard to believe that I have had her for that long...time is flying by very quickly. I sometimes feel it is going by too fast for my taste!

I'm trying to capture as much as I can, let her do and feel as much as she can and experience all that life has to offer. I hope that some of her memory stays with her from this time in her life. Maybe one day when she's 18 something in her memory will trigger and she will remember that time when "Mom made me wear this awful red dress with a bandana on my head and took me outside to take my picture....I remember doing everything possible to try NOT to look at the camera!"
