My philosophy . . .

I love working with people who are fun. Genuine. Real. And that’s what my photography is really all about: capturing the real you. I can see the connections between the members of your family and the beauty in each one of you -- and that’s what I want to capture with my camera.

I don’t do the typical matching-outfits portraits, or the canvas-backdrop-strobe-lighting-say-cheese portraits. I don’t want you to worry about having perfect hair, perfect smiles, and the kids on their best behavior. Relax. Have fun. Be yourself. I want to show you your family the way I see it through my lens: happy, beautiful, flawless in spite of the flaws.

So when I show up for your session, you don’t have to do any pretending. Just be real. I like t-shirts and jeans and flip-flops. And jammies. And mussed up hair and lollipop-stained faces. I love hugs and tickle fights and peals of laughter, and snuggles and kisses too. These things are real. This is the way I want to remember my family, and it’s the way I want to help you remember yours.

Yesterday I got to shoot maternity portraits of one of my very good–and very beautiful–friends! We’ve been planning this session for ages, and she’s now about 34 weeks along and looking absolutely spectacular, so we finally made it happen. We had a blast and got some really great shots in the process! Here’s a preview, but there are many more to come!

On Saturday I got to witness the marriage of my brother-in-law’s wife’s sister . . . but to make things a little less complicated, let’s just call her the sweetest girl in the whole world! The wedding was at a gorgeous cathedral in downtown Fort Worth and the reception was at the old Texas & Pacific train station. And even though I was not the official wedding photographer, everything was so incredibly beautiful that I just could not resist whipping out my camera. Here are some of my favorites!
