I don’t know about you, but in the summer heat, sometimes there is nothing better than a cold glass of lemonade and some reading! I know as busy moms, wives, and women, we often don’t get time to ourselves, but when I do, I love to read. And in today’s digital age, it’s really fun to read mommy blogs. Sure. there are some that are a bit over the top (who can afford a $300 outfit to wear to[...]
Get ready for some adorable photos! This was an amazing and beautiful session with the Copeland Family, and you can’t really beat wide open fields and jaw-dropping skylines views at a ranch like this one in Brownwood. Jenny and Les are the parents of five year old twins Madison and Mason, and were also joined by parents Bob and Vicky to shoot some updated family photos for their website, Angus o[...]
When the mama in this wonderful family told me that her vision was for a shoot in a field of flowers, I immediately started dreaming of a session just like this...and how precious are her two girls (Ann Coleman and Clayton)? The Pettit Family is from Austin, and formerly resided in Memphis, Tennessee. They are learning to love and explore their new hometown, and they love being outdoors together.[...]

I loved getting to know mom Kat, dad Jason (“Troop”), and little Andy, and really hoped to capture their fun perso[...]
When I added family photos to my roster of offerings, it was because my heart is so passionate about the value of memories. As a mom, it can be so easy to move through life just trying to keep your head above water with laundry and dishes and carpool and activities. It feels like life is moving so fast, you can hardly keep up. Family photos may be the last thing on your mind, but they should be so[...]
I encourage all of my clients with little ones to get in for a family session at least once a year. I hear lots of excuses and reasons why this is really hard: little ones are wiggly, outfits are hard to find and coordinate, family photos are expensive, and it is stressful. I’m a mom myself, and I understand! That’s what I use my own personal experiences as mom to shape my work as a photograph[...]
The mom in these portraits is SO wonderful. Not only is she stunningly beautiful, she is smart, kind, and talented as well, and the most amazing mother. Meet Blakely, her husband Mike, and their precious children: Finn and Holly (those blue eyes, though!). Blakely is one of my spokes-mommies, and I couldn’t be more delighted to have her on my team. What is a spokes-mommy? It is someone who is sp[...]
