Carrollton Maternity Session : Olivia + Steven

02.29.12

It’s long overdue I know…my first blog post of 2012! How fitting that it lands on Leap Day. I’m so happy to bring in the new year with this beautiful maternity session of my sister and her husband. They had their sweet little girl just a few weeks ago and I can’t wait to share my pictures of her very soon so stayed tuned for some adorableness!

Olivia, you are such a beautiful mommy-to-be!

Hello gorgeous.

Ahh, so sweet!

20 Free Holiday Cards

10.16.11

It’s that time of year again! Yes, I mean the holiday season. Some people start their holiday shopping and some of us (like me) bring out the Christmas carols. I wish I was one of those people sometimes, the ones that get it all done early and have their home decorated by Thanksgiving and every gift wrapped under the tree for a month! In the event of me trying to start early I started looking for holiday cards. I want to share some of the great sites I came across where you can add your own picture to a predesigned card and a few sites that offer psd templates for all you photographers out there offering holiday cards to your clients. I’m also sharing a few sites I found that offer some great freebies for the consumer and/or photographer. Who doesn’t love FREE?! I hope you find a few you like and if you have some more suggestions please share them in the comments!

P.S. I dabbled in some card template making myself. Check them out below.

Dallas Arboretum Wedding : Amy + Michael

09.24.11

So many girls dream of having their wedding in a garden like the one I’m about to show you, I know I did at some point! For Amy her dream came true when she and Michael married in the Sunken Garden at the Dallas Arboretum earlier this summer. These two couldn’t have been more in love. Michael was a bundle of nerves until he saw his gorgeous bride and Amy never did stop smiling.

I was so fortunate to be able to photograph Amy and Michael’s wedding with Laura Parker of Fairy Tale Photography. Amy and Michael, I wish you all the best!

The day started out with a light shower but cleared up before Amy stepped outside. The cloud cover made for some gorgeous light.

Fountains, flowers, and trees….and then there were string players. They created such an amazing ambiance.

Amy’s dad looked so proud!

Amy you are too cute!

Love!

Styled Engagement at Brownstone Village : Ebony + Jovan

09.06.11

Remember the styled shoot of Corbin and Dave? Well, I also shot Ebony and Jovan’s engagement session during the same styled shoot at the cute shops of Brownstone Village. Ebony and Jovan were so much fun to photograph. These two have the most adorable dimples and I loved how they both wore shades of pink, yes boys, even Jovan! They looked amazing and were so sweet to allow a number of photographers capture their beautiful love for each other. Oh and brides, if you are looking for a talented wedding planner/designer you should check out Ebony’s company Ebony Peoples Events & Design. She is truly talented! Thanks again Ebony and Jovan!

I love the flowers in Ebony’s hair. Ashley Bristo did an amazing job.

Thanks for having fun with us!

Love this one!

Ebony, you are beautiful!

It doesn’t get any sweeter!

Couple: Ebony & Jovan / Flowers: Bows & Arrows / Cake & Sweets: Sugar Bee Sweets / Hair: Ashley Bristo / Makeup: Something You… Makeup Artistry / Venue: The Shoppes at Brownstone Village / Planning & Production: After Yes and Catie Ronquillo
