Pumpkin Patch with my girls






I love my nieces. They are at the perfect age- almost 4! They are fast and hard to catch, but sweet as pie. We enjoyed an early afternoon at the Black Creek Pumpkin Patch near Decatur, TX. We had hay rides, petting zoos, pumpkins, face painting, and frito pies!

We enjoyed our time with the family and now onto the pumpkin carving. I think I will just take pictures. :)

Here comes the Bride








I spent this past Saturday with the beautiful Adriane! What a beautiful bride she makes. The weather was easy on us and allowed for a very pleasant session. We stayed in 2 locations within Dallas city limits. Turtle Creek is where we spent the first half of our shoot getting our grassy knoll pictures. What a beautiful park they have! Then we headed to Deep Ellum to finish up our shoot as the sun started to set! We got some amazing shots and here are a few of my favorites.

:) Thanks to Bobby for assisting me and the bride for being so amazing to work with!

stay tuned,

Two by Tutu








Here are some examples of different finishes I love and put to use in this shoot.

Chasing around one 3 year old- exciting. Chasing around two 3 year olds in tutu’s- double exciting!

Autumn and Ashlyn were not as thrilled to run around the park to take photos in their tutu’s. Their eyes were glued to the 2 story playground across the street where other children were freely running and climbing in their leisure time. Waiting, talking, entertaining, and learning to be patient started wearing thin. I mean come on, who wouldn’t want to trash the tutu and jump on the giant money bars!? :)

After about 45 minutes we decided to take a rest from the running around the park. The ducks got old, the sun got hot, and the invisible fish I was trying to get them to see were just not there! We ended with a small break. I asked them to lay on the ground and see if they could hear the worms talking. Believe it or not–they tried REALLY hard to hear those worms. I guess their worm voices were too quiet today.

Either way–they are precious girls. And the pictures—-well, they tell the story of 2 of my favorite clients. Who wouldn’t love two princess fairies in pink?

My new 70-200mm was a blast to use…I think my arm muscles got more of a workout than the 2 girls I was chasing! :)

Texas Our Texas



Part of me wants to break out in song right now. Being a music teacher and getting to teach Texas History through Music is fun. In leu of starting our Annual Tx Musical at my school—I got to actually go and visit the state capital! Here are some quick shots I was able to get! Enjoy. It was BEAUTIFUL!

stay tuned
