Birthday Girl

I met up with a fun little birthday girl and her sweet Mommy at the park the other day. The birthday girl had no time for my camera, there was too much to explore. That is no problem for me, I love a good chase.

This little one was so much fun to watch and chase. She was so brave! I can't tell you how many times she fell and never once did she shed a tear. She would just pop back up and go bouncing on to the next thing.

This weekend is her birthday and I hope she has a great one because someone this cute and sweet deserves nothing less.

A Rainy Engagement

Saturday I met up with this couple, in the rain. Weather forecasts had been calling for rain all week and it had never come. Of course, it decided to fall on the day of our shoot. But, we did not cancel. As I was driving over I kept wondering if they would even be there. A quick check of the radar showed showers still hit and miss in our area so I was crossing my fingers that our location would be dry.

While it wasn't exactly dry, it was only falling lightly, and they were there! This couple was up for it. I love how she didn't wince at the drizzle and didn't worry what it might do to her hair (I totally would have). In the end we did end up opening umbrellas because the rain had picked up, but luckily we had already finished.

I can't wait to see these two in a month at their wedding. Lets hope the rain stays away for their outdoor ceremony!

Sunflower

I am not sure which is more beautiful, the field or the little girl in it.

Actually, I do know, but the sunflowers are pretty too.

Little Beauty

Remember this little beauty?



I am finally getting around to her preview. Mom, Dad and Mimi have been patiently waiting.

This little lady will soon be having her 2nd birthday. She is as sweet as they come. We met up at a small little park and had fun walking through the grass, dancing, climbing trees (she has no fear, and great balance), and trying to get the view through my lens to mirror the view in her world.









Happy Birthday Little Beauty!

Exploring, Chasing, and Candy

Sometimes my subjects present me with a bit of a challenge. I love challenges, they keep life interesting.

This session my challenges were two brothers. B, a fun 4 year old who had my heart when I pulled into their driveway. Before I was even out of my car he peaked his head out of the front door and exclaimed, "It's Jennifer!" like I was the most exciting part of his day.

Then there was M, a 2 year old with striking features. Seriously gorgeous eyes, beautiful hair and antsy legs - he really doesn't like to be in one place for long.

So match my 2 challenges with an awesome new location (to them and me) with cool buildings, bridges, tunnels, and doorways and you have 2 little boys ready to explore, not sit for pictures. So they explored, Mom, Dad and I chased, and we were armed with treats. In the end we rewarded them with candy. As much as their little hands could hold, and when you see their eyes, you'll know why - you just can't say no.

Their mommy is a good friend of mine, and I know she left the session wanting to throw up her hands because there would be nothing good come of it. I hope this preview changes her mind. (And I'm warning you now, this is a bit of a long one.)











These last two are actually the same picture. Just done differently. I'm torn between the two because I love them both for different reasons. The first one is way over exposed which shows a bit of the detail of the family and the coloring - and well, I just really like it. The second being all in black and white and completely silhouette creates a different effect, totally cool. It would definitely be a print for my house because I like it so much and I think I know which one I would pick but I could not share just one.

Oh Brother!

While in Dallas I got to take my brother's family on a shoot. They just relocated to the Dallas area and we are so excited to have them closer so we can visit more often. They are such a fun family.



Isn't my nephew handsome?



And take a look at my niece's eyes!



Then there is mom and dad...high school sweethearts. I believe I was 8 when they started dating, I love that I've known my sister-in-law for so long.

Jumping for Joy

I met up with some beautiful girls from my church last night for a fun photo shoot. It was a blast!

Fabulous Five

I met up with an awesome family on my first night in Dallas. I have known them since before the parents were married, but it had been a long time since we had seen each other. There might be another preview for this family in a few days since I have not even touched the family shots yet, but I knew the mom was anxious to see some, so I thought I'd give her a peak of her precious kids.

She requested black and whites, which I love, but I couldn't resist showing them in just a bit of color too.

First up, J. He is the oldest of the group. He wasn't too sure that having your picture taken was cool, but when I pulled him out for his individual shots he was nothing but cool.



Next is, T. His smile is just infectious! I loved talking to him. He was so courteous and polite.



A, is the only girl of the bunch. And boy, is she beautiful! She also knows how to work a camera. I could not take a bad picture of her.



Then there is little sweet C. Oh, C! Please, oh, please fall in love with my little girl. He is just too cute and too sweet. They MUST be married. (He even held my hand as we walked through the fields.)



Last, but not least there was baby Z. He was so expressive, and it was so easy to get him to look at the camera. Big blue eyes, can sit on his own, crawls but was still content to sit...basically he was a dream.



I had so much fun. Yes, I got bitten to death by Texas Chiggers, but it was oh, so worth it!

Back From the Big D

I spent the weekend doing shoots in Dallas. 5 in 4 days and no computer with me to begin editing. So I'm up to my eyeballs in pictures. Tonight I just downloaded them and am beginning to dig my way through. There are so many that jumped out at me, but I am sharing the one I've been dying to get my hands on since I took it.

To all those I saw this weekend: It was SO much fun! Each of your shoots was so different, which makes life fun for me. Keep coming back in the next week or so to look for your previews. I will be in touch with you to get you your final images.
