I got to experience a beautiful family reuniting again for the first time in over a year. They stayed apart during the 2020 because of COVID. Grandparents meeting their baby grandchild for the first time, cousins meeting their new baby cousin, toddlers playing with their fun older cousins- so sweet! I’m really grateful I get […]

Wow, what a winter! I know in one of my previous posts, I mentioned how much this Texan loves to see snow. Well, scratch that! Ha. After this past winter storm, I’m not quite sure I’d like to see snow again! Thankfully, we all survived the long, dark days of power outages, water shut-offs, and […]

This season I’ve mostly done families and newborns, so you can imagine my excitement when I got to photograph these two love birds on their special marriage day!

I just wanna leave this post up to celebrate such a memorable day for all. Our kiddos have never seen snow like this before…ever! My hubby use to live up north and saw snow regularly. He says this was “real snow”! But when you’re a lifelong Texan, you’ll take those once-in-a-blue moon tiny flurries and […]
