laughing with the elrods

The Elrods and I met early one morning at the beautiful Island in New Braunfels. It's one of their favorite places and they spent lots of time there in the summer, so it was the perfect backdrop for their family pictures! Enjoy their pretty pics...

Rett is in 1st grade! What a smile this boy has! And he insisted on being photographed with that huge leaf...and I'm so glad he did! I LOVE his last picture!...

Sylvie just turned 5 and is preschool (with my twins!) She was super-cooperative and had fun being photographed this time around!...

And here's the little heartbreaker! Baby Bridger is now 1 year old! Remember this adorable picture of him from about 7 months ago?...

And now the big walking Bridger...

And people still comment about how much they loved this picture from their other photo shoot. Mom says that it truly captured her kids that day...

So, in a very unplanned way, the kids decided to tackle Mommy...and again...we get this shot...

I had so much fun with y'all at the Island!!! I can't wait to work with y'all again!

the burton family (katy)

These are the Burtons from Katy! I spent a weekend taking pictures of families in Houston/Katy. I've known Ashley (far left) since I taught her oldest son, Carter, in kindergarten! I was expecting twins on April 14th and she was expecting little Chloe on April 15th. We've kept in touch ever since! It was so wonderful meeting the rest of the family and watching all of the cousins play together. Enjoy their beautiful pictures...

Mom, Dad, and their 3 big boys...

Nannie & Pops with all six grandkids...

Feeling the love...

These Burtons live in Katy. Their kiddos are Carter (5th grader!), Connor (3rd grader), and Chloe (4 years old.)...

Isn't this an adorable picture? I have to say that Chloe had it all planned out herself!...

And these Burtons live in Kingwood!...

Kyle is 7 years old and in the 2nd grade...

Kendall is also 7 years old and in the 2nd grade...

And Camille is 4 years old...

Thank y'all Burtons for meeting me at this lovely place in Katy! It was so neat to see your family interact and watch all of the cousins run and play! I hope to see y'all again sometime soon!

happy turkey day

I hope everyone has a blessed Thanksgiving and is safe in their travels! I don't even have a new picture to post of my three turkeys, so I've decided to post two old favorites of my twins...

Eat lots, hug lots, and rest lots!!! Enjoy!

the gore family (katy)

I spent a weekend in Houston/Katy taking pictures of some old friends and some new ones. I've met the Gores several times, as they are friends-of-friends! This family was lots of fun and kept me laughing! Enjoy their pictures...

Just the kiddos...

Kalee Sue is in 3rd grade and was a sweet as pie! She was so great with the camera, and she's a complete natural...

Chris is 4 years old and is all BOY! He loved running down the little ditches and climbing on the trees...

The love was flowing with these guys...

Thank you so much Gore family for meeting me at the park on such a beautiful day! It was great seeing y'all, and I hope to see you again soon!
