Soft and Sweet

When I saw the theme for this week I knew I could interpret it different ways.  My mind kept coming back to this photo.  We recently did a shoot with FIFTEEN little girls aged 2-6.  It was crazy and wonderful all at once.  They were all wearing amazingly soft and brightly colored tutu's, and let's face it...nothing is sweeter than a bunch of little girls! So here's my entry complete, with little girls, tut's and hair bows, it doesn't get softer or sweeter than this! For a little more sweetness in your life head on over to I Heart Faces!

It's one of my favorite weeks over at I heart faces...pet week!  We have the best doggie ever.  You can argue it, but it's true.  Some of you may know that our Tank was hit by a car a couple of years ago, the doctor said it was a miracle that he even survived.  That's when he came to live with us, I think he hung on to protect my kids, he NEVER leaves their side.  He protects them all the time, which makes up for the time he decided to eat an entire box of Nutri-Grain bars...wrapper and all.  Here he is with my Blake, they are the best of buds...this one is totally going on my wall.

Mr. P

Cuteness...party of one!  We just couldn't get enough of this little guy.  He smiled from the minute we started right until the end, he was such a trooper.  He has the best blue eyes and adorable smile...thanks for letting us capture your cutie!

Slice of Life...I heart faces

One of the major perks of living in Texas is being able to go to the Rodeo.  My brother in law competes in it so it is always so fun to have the whole family out there to enjoy the show.  The theme this week at I heart faces is slice of life.  They want something that is real life and candid.  I can clearly remember this i moment my brother in law came out into the center and our family went nuts...his neighbor (who may just be the CUTEST cowboy ever) was SO focused on just watching him.  No reaction... just stone cold Stockton.  That is why this is one of my favorite pictures, this is our family- wild, crazy and TEXAS baby!  Check out some more real life moments at I heart faces!

I heart faces- sunflare

 

When I saw this week's theme I just knew this photo was it. When I was taking these photos I saw the light coming through and I was GIDDY!  I recently had the opportunity to take bridal photos of my GORGEOUS sister in law.  We used this picture as a large canvas in the entry of her reception and it was perfect. To see more fabulous sunflare head on over to I Heart Faces!  

 

Birthday Girl

Now that we have our hands on some fabulous new lighting equipment we just needed the perfect subject. Enter Ava.  She was a total ham, in fact her session will get a few different posts.  Today's photos were capturing her at 1, a total ham.  She was fascinated by the balloons!  Stay tuned for her next part of the session, smash the cake...and she really got into it!

Blog Love

I must admit, our blog has been a little neglected.  I have been good about adding pictures to our facebook page, but our blog has been getting no love.  So, in an effort to show no favoritism to our facebook page I am trying to get caught up.  I will be posting photos from sessions we did a couple months ago along with current projects.  One of the perks of being a photographer is personal birthday photo shoots for our kids.  We are now setup with some fabulous lighting equipment and backdrops for indoor shoots.  We have also acquired some FABULOUS new props...we are giddy about them!  Sydney was great to photograph, she has now hit double digits...happy 10th birthday Sydney!
