Get ready for this post…..it’s going to be a long one!

I just can’t say enough about this wonderful couple.  They are so fun and thoughtful.  I love clients that make Saylor and I feel like we are part of the family and Maria and Christian definitley did that. Thanks so much to both of you for making us feel so special!

I could go on all day about these two, but I’ll just let you see their personalities shine through the photos……..are you ready?  Grab a drink and get comfy because this is going to take awhile. ;)

Carey + Mike: Engaged!

October 21, 2008

Oh how I wish I could tell you how fun this couple is!  I had an absolute BLAST with them on Saturday evening at the pumpkin patch.  They also took me to a really cool park in the area and I think I will have to add it to my list of locations to suggest because it was AWESOME!   The light was amazing.  We had such a blast!  Did I say that already? :)  Too bad I have to wait a whole YEAR until their wedding because I can’t wait!

Here are some of my favorites of the adorable couple:

Told you it was some sweet light!  I LOVED this session! ;)

 

Meet one of my fabulous Senior Spokesmodels for 2008-2009.  Hannah is so cool! She is so much fun that I could totally hang out with her and not even notice our age difference! We had a blast running around on Saturday morning.  Hannah is a natural model and I can’t wait for her to see these images!

Here are my favorites so far:

Carson at the Arboretum.

October 2, 2008

I had another session at the Dallas Arboretum on Sunday.  If you haven’t ever been this is definitely the time of year to check it out.  The pumpkins are everywhere and I do mean EVERYWHERE!  I love pumpkins. :)

So I met up with a repeat client.  It’s so fun to photograph the same people each year.  I like really getting to know my clients.  It is especially fun when I get to watch the kids grow up before my camera.  Carson is a natural in front of the camera.  I mean who WOULDN’T be with those blue eyes.  Watch out mom and dad you will be fighting the girls off with a stick before you know it!
