Bluebonnet Portraits

My little lady is a natural in front of the camera.

This afternoon we had a blast hanging out together and she was the perfect model for me when we went to the bluebonnet patch. She may have sampled a few petals. Haha!

Senior Session : David

 "Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decided not to surrender, that is strength." - Arnold Schwarzenegger

 

This quote epitomizes David's character. He is a man full of strength for overcoming the challenges in his path. He is an inspiration to everyone he meets! I feel lucky to have met him and have the opportunity to spend an afternoon photographing him.

 

He told me a little about his story which involved a terrifying brush with death in a car accident that has left him with daily struggles, but struggles he takes on and overcomes every single day. He has purpose and there is no doubt he is meant to do great things in the future.

 

David, thank you so much for allowing me to photograph you and for putting up with my shenanigans asking you to make goofy faces at me!

 

Congratulations on graduating!

 

Please, if you share, share my info too!

Father / Daughter Session : Paul & Katelyn

Katelyn is such a sweet little lady and I was privileged with the opportunity to photograph her and her father, Paul, before they had a father/daughter night out on the town (very important evening!) Katelyn went with her mother earlier to find the perfect dress and accessories, get her hair styled (glittered!!!) and nails painted. She is gorgeous! Top it off with a mini photo session before dinner and a trip to the museum and it made for a night she will always remember.

 

 

 Mom had to get a few pictures with her phone!

 



Family Session : Jaime & Gabriel

Can love be any sweeter than that between a mother and child?

 

Jaime and Gabriel allowed me to spend an afternoon with them at the park photographing their incredible bond. Gabriel just turned two years old and that goofy smile of his is contagious! His mother and I met waitressing at the same restaurant in Lubbock and had an instant connection. I love this woman to pieces and I love her family as well.

 

Good luck with your future together!

And then he let go of the blue star balloon....

Fashion Session : Susan Lee Rigg

Susan Lee Rigg was so much fun to work with!

She is a full time model, visiting family after moving to Italy to further her career. While she is in town she wants to, duh, model! Such a sweet girl, I'm glad I got the opportunity to work with her and it gave me some experience on the "fashion" side of photography.

Susan, good luck with your career! 

Please, if you share my images, please also share my credit info!

Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fashion Session : Scott and Rebecca

On Thursday, two other photographers and myself got together to collaborate ideas and boy was I excited to get back to my camera! Isaac Everett provided the models and props, along with the makeup and hair artists. Kent Sparkman and I tagged along to help with ideas and to grab a few shots for ourselves. It was tons of fun and a little warm out but definitely a FUN adventure!

Can't wait to work with these two photographers again! We've all got different styles, but how else can you grow in your own work if you don't try out new ideas every now and then?

Here are some of my favorite shots form the afternoon! Scott and Rebecca were awesome models to work with. :)

 

 

 

 

Engagement Session : Lauren & LD

You know how sometimes you can just look at a couple and know they were meant to be together? Lauren and LD are that couple. They were all smiles the entire morning we spent together. I knew Lauren from our days we spent hours holed up in the studio in the basement of the Mass Communications Building at Texas Tech University. Here is one from those days..... :)

Anywho, it was so much fun trying out some new places with this couple. ALSO it was great for me to get back in to photography after postponing sessions or declining new clients due to my pregnancy. Now that my daughter is here and almost 6 weeks old I feel confident enough to get back out there. Lauren and LD were such a joy to work with and congratulations go all around.

Congratulations to you two. I wish the best of luck to you both on a very happy and successful future together.
