Almost 4 months old & super cute! | Dallas baby photographer

I’m absolutely loving watching these two precious girls growing up! I always look forward to their sessions & seeing what they’re like. I know they’re going to love being close in age as they grow up! We had a few reschedules because of weather & sickness but finally had a nice day and some naps […]

This is such a sweet, awesome couple and I’m honored that I’ve been able to capture not only their engagement, wedding, maternity, and first baby but also their second adorable little girl as well! It doesn’t seem like nearly 2 years since I met their first daughter, but I guess that’s how time goes. Fortunately […]

I can’t believe my nephew is already 4 months old! He’s at that age where if I don’t see him for a week, he’s almost like a completely different baby – he’s just growing & changing so fast. His newest skill is rolling over, which he expertly demonstrated several times for the camera. And he’s […]

Sebastian was a bright spot on a super foggy, fairly dreary day – his sweet smile and fun red Christmas outfit were a perfect way to offset the gray skies. We started his session at 8am and by 9 he was ready for a snooze – sounds like a pretty great life to me! I’ve […]

There isn’t a lot I miss about living in the house we were in before moving last year, but having these guys as my next-door neighbors is definitely at the top of my list! They’re the best kind of neighbors you could possibly ask for and I’m still sad that we don’t live a few […]

All grown up | family photos with adult kids

Most people have family photos done when their kids are little, but I think it’s just as important to do family photos with adult kids! Family photos are something to be treasured at every age. It’s so wonderful to capture your unique family at every stage of life. And it’s fun to get dressed up […]
