Newborn : Cole (5 Days)

Little baby Cole, five days new! He is my new 2nd cousin and he is an absolute snugglebug! 

My cousin, Preston, and his wife, Marisa are two very blessed parents and I love them both so much.

It was wonderful getting to get to see these two new parents so happy and so in love.

Art : Ashelynn's LED Hoop

My neighbor is pretty awesome! She saw a video one day on the internet of someone hoop dancing and decided to try it out. From that moment forward, she's been documenting her progress and sharing it to her Facebook. I reached out to her and asked if she'd like to try some long-exposure portraits with her new LED hoop. "I would love that!" 

It took 2 weeks to get the right evening (monsoon season occurred in DFW that put portraits off for a while) but we made it happen and she was awesome! It was so cool to watch her dance with the hoop and then see the result in my camera of a 20 second, 40 second, and 2 minute exposure!

Below are my favorites! Enjoy!

Maternity : Marisa : Fort Worth, TX

My beautiful cousin-in-law, Marisa! We had an absolutely amazing time at the Fort Worth Stockyards and then Sundance Square. She was just glowing! I'm so happy for my cousin Preston and his lovely wife, Marisa. They just make me smile so much! My baby sister, Jaclyn Church, tagged along as well and did a short promo-video of us and I am so happy with how that turned out too and really sums up how much fun we had during Marisa's maternity session!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!
