Princess Pony Mini Sessions {Tomball Photographer}

monkey girl {photog is a gigi}

yes, yes...this is my grandbaby.  when i type it, it seems odd.  like out of the norm.  i agree, i'm way too young to be a gigi.  in our family, we do not say "step".  it's almost like evil.  when i married my husband, i gained two children.  they are mine in every sense of the word.  this little monkey is a blessing....
hat made my mom cave!!  isn't it awesome??!!
<3

Canada {VACATIONS do exist}

YES, finally after 4 years hubster and I went on a REAL vacation and on an airplane!  I know, shocker!
It's tough with kids and taking care of an elderly parent but after planning for over 15 months and paying....we had the most amazing time in Canada.  I'm definitely NOT a landscape photographer but I may expand after this trip!!  AMAZING beauty!  I think Heaven looks a lot like Banff!!!  <3  

Enjoy the beauty, it's breathtaking!!

lil Oliver {Spring Newborn Photographer}

say hello to oliver.  this ten day old guy stole my heart!  <3 

Blessings {baby love}

originally, i had planned to have this printed BEFORE my aunt seeing it but i can't help myself any longer!  she subscribes to this blog and chances are she is tearing up (i know b/c i am right now as i type this).  she is one of the most amazing people i know, the other is her mommy (my granny).  both of these women have been been tested through life with losing so much and fighting through cancer(s)...yes plural!

i am blessed to be part of these women and i am lucky if i am ever half the greatness they are.  

ok, enough of the sappy....so here we go.  here is my aunt with her very first grandchild.  he is amazing, isn't he??!  oh how i want to squeeze him. :)  

the best part of this photo, this was the very first time little man fell asleep in his grandma's arms.  a priceless moment for all three of us indeed.

i love you to the moon and back!
(yes, i will have it printed)

he is just toooo cute for words. i mean really people, don't you see it?? :)

 the eyes...oh the eyes!!

Giving Back {OPLove Photographer}

i had the most fun with this young wife.  her hubby is deployed and she is guarding the homefront with her sweet dogs.  i tell ya, there is no way i can spell those names let alone say them.  HAHAHA....
LOVE!!!  i know, i have several photos blogged...but they were soooo cute!  i couldn't help myself.  really.

College Grad {Lifestyle Photographer}

woooohoooooo, look who has her college degree....this sweet young momma.  i had the honor of capturing some pretty cool photos of her and a few of her sweet little boy.  check out those eyes!  not to mention his beaming smile and evident personality.  he spiderman during most of our photos but i got lucky on a few.

look how he hold his mommy's finger...ohhhhh i wanna keep him.

"T" Family {Spring Family Photographer}

I actually met the T family the day before Thanksgiving.  It was the perfect day for photos.  We had a great time...and then came my computer.  My computer "ate" 90% of their images.  Sad thing is, I backup my photos on a separate external hard drive.  However, my drive was full so I made the biggest mistake a photog could....NEVER TRUST YOUR COMPUTER!  I was devastated!  Worse, I had to tell them about it but....they were AWESOME!  This session, take two as I call it; was better than the first!  Images are amazing!  You know when you see it in camera and you just want to run home FAST and get it edited, that it's a keeper!  I am in love.  LOL. I have to many faves to even post but here we go.  The light, oh the light!  This is why it's my most favorite time to shoot.  LOVE!!

1st Session of 2013, rescheduled...booooo

well, it's the 1st work day of 2013 and what do we have????  a high today of 48 and drizzle.  NOT cool mother nature.  i'm totally bummed!  what to do...what to do....organize i suppose. i guess that means i'll be putting to use some of these awesome pins i have saved. hahaha!
