I figured before and after says it all!<br /><br />The following images are an example of a before and after. They are also an example of a composite. A composite is when a photographer combines two images and blends them together to create one. In this instance, I took the image of the baby being supported by moms front arm and one where her arm was removed and blended them together. I then edited out her back arm, straightened the image, and then added a background to add depth. From that point, I did my normal amount of editing. <br /><br />Please remember that half of your photographers job is editing your images. It takes time and skill and know how to acheive a polished image. It is likely that when you see an image of a baby hanging from a tree, that image was a composite. Please don't attempt it!<br /><br />Remember that when you pay for your custom portraiture, you aren't just paying for my time at our session. You are paying for the time I have spent learning these skills and applying them to create unique images from your session!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4770437606/" title="renewborn_06_17_10-164sooc by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4074/4770437606_1505cebc34_b.jpg" width="533" height="800" alt="renewborn_06_17_10-164sooc"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4769797617/" title="renewborn_06_17_10-168sooc2 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4118/4769797617_f1c224583a_b.jpg" width="533" height="800" alt="renewborn_06_17_10-168sooc2"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4770437534/" title="renewborn_06_17_10-164edited by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4114/4770437534_856725eb8f_b.jpg" width="733" height="900" alt="renewborn_06_17_10-164edited"></a>Elizabeth Boycehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01300209694019547556noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783256071151977430.post-86854561848397368992010-06-10T05:44:00.002-05:002010-06-10T05:51:24.447-05:00{Beautiful Morning} Frisco- McKinney- Plano Child PhotographerI had the joy of meeting up with Eli and his parents for our 6 mth session. Time flies way too quickly! We were able to get some great smiles out of him. The funny part was when he was totally stone faced. A moving truck pulled up and the moving guys hoped out. He turned to them and gave them the biggest smile ever! We thought we were going to have to hire them to help us!<br /><br />He was an angel though and I am so happy to share a few...<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4687910472/" title="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-156 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1300/4687910472_1914afbbbc_b.jpg" width="630" height="518" alt="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-156" /></a><br /><br />Couldn't decide on this one...<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4687910528/" title="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-197bw by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4010/4687910528_c7fbbf9ffc_b.jpg" width="430" height="718" alt="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-197bw" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4687275717/" title="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-197 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4020/4687275717_0b9e18516f_b.jpg" width="430" height="718" alt="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-197" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4687275883/" title="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-237 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4068/4687275883_ecf5150f64_b.jpg" width="430" height="718" alt="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-237" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4687910552/" title="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-225 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4034/4687910552_55af38b633_b.jpg" width="430" height="718" alt="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-225" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4687275963/" title="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-288 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4017/4687275963_63ca76d95a_b.jpg" width="430" height="718" alt="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-288" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4687275917/" title="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-334 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4023/4687275917_b734a5fd83_b.jpg" width="430" height="618" alt="hrsixmonth_06_05_10-334" /></a>Elizabeth Boycehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01300209694019547556noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783256071151977430.post-26113604991089186712010-06-06T23:38:00.003-05:002010-06-06T23:45:33.575-05:00{A Hot Afternoon} Rowlett- Rockwall- Garland Family PhotographerThis session was originally scheduled for March, but this sweet little man couldn't stay well!

I get so much joy out of editing her sessions. She has incredible expressions that just make me laugh out loud. She put up with quite a bit as we did our session.

It was fabulous and we finished our session in 60 minutes this time. What a change! He was just an angel and up for anything we threw at him.

I couldn't believe that she was six months already! Time goes too quickly. We did some of just her and some as a family. We even squeezed in Grandma and Grandpa. We had a lovely afternoon with spring flowers blossoming everywhere! Not to mention she was wearing silk. Did you know silk has to be dry cleaned? LOL! We think she knew that, as she decided it was the perfect outfit to get dirty. Babies are the best.

I was blessed to do maternity and newborn photographs for their first and again now, as they are expecting number two! This isn't a maternity sneak peek, but I loved it so much, I had to share it. His mama just loves him so much and he adores her. What a blessing. I promise actual maternity images are forthcoming!<br /><br /><br /><br /><p align="center"><a title="rematernity_05_08_10-100 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4605041262/"><img alt="rematernity_05_08_10-100" src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1145/4605041262_d891ba52db_o.jpg" width="600" height="400" /></a></p>Elizabeth Boycehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01300209694019547556noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783256071151977430.post-23760250915909560382010-05-13T16:13:00.003-05:002010-05-13T16:17:55.905-05:00{Beautiful Ava} McKinney- Frisco- Plano Newborn PhotographerThis little girl threw everyone off and decided to come early!

I even went to her house and played with her toys and crawled around on the floor acting like a goofball. No luck. While I know mom was disapointed in the lack of laughter, I always come away from her sessions feeling like you could reach down and touch her very soul. Her face and eyes are so deep and she conveys great emotion even without a smile. I just love her to peices!!!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4582501624/" title="rksixmonth_04_28_10-101 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4039/4582501624_4087ed0897_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="rksixmonth_04_28_10-101" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4581871171/" title="rksixmonth_04_28_10-103 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4006/4581871171_ce285a4752_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="rksixmonth_04_28_10-103" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4582501440/" title="rksixmonth_04_28_10-100 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4070/4582501440_7fe5d3396f_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="rksixmonth_04_28_10-100" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4581871143/" title="rksixmonth_04_28_10-104 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4053/4581871143_bb069497e1_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="rksixmonth_04_28_10-104" /></a><br /><br />The only smile we got was in the swimming pool... our last ditch effort!!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4581871275/" title="rksixmonth_04_28_10-105 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4031/4581871275_f970337d32_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="rksixmonth_04_28_10-105" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4582501562/" title="rksixmonth_04_28_10-102 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4044/4582501562_efff0d0255_o.jpg" width="563" height="474" alt="rksixmonth_04_28_10-102" /></a>Elizabeth Boycehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01300209694019547556noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783256071151977430.post-9428004262279066542010-05-03T14:26:00.003-05:002010-05-03T14:34:28.663-05:00{Welcome Jordan ~ April 30, 2010} Dallas- Plano- Richardson Birth PhotographyThis little man was welcomed with love by his mama and papa on Friday morning.

I was honored to capture these moments for them as they welcomed two girls into their family. They weighed almost the exact same amout, only off by grams. They were strong and loud as well! They will be well cared for by their big sister I am sure. Three girls... what a blessing! Thanks you guys for letting me share it with you.<br /><br />OH!

What a trooper.<br /><br />We were blessed with some lovely images though. And once again, we got her to sleep. I will be shocked if we accomplish it at her one year session too!

I met her parents Saturday afternoon to do a maternity session. In the middle of our session, Mom's water broke! It was quite the adventure! Willow, however, decided she wanted to wait until Easter Sunday to come into this world.<br /><br />After a whirlwind, she was born by emergency c-section and I was lucky enough to be there to capture it all. She is amazingly beautiful and so alert. It was like she couldn't wait to get into this world and see what she has been missing. Mom and Dad just adore her, and they should!<br /><br />Watch the blog for those maternity peeks and her newborn peeks! They are coming shortly!<br /><br />My fav... told you she was alert!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4513568513/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-262 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2087/4513568513_6265e444f8_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-262" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4513568691/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-148 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2775/4513568691_cf6f535cf0_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-148" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4513568677/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-155 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2305/4513568677_2da0075f4f_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-155" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4513568649/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-181 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2686/4513568649_e7f79fa509_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-181" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4513568633/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-186 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4001/4513568633_3feb46fcc1_o.jpg" width="530" height="530" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-186" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4514209130/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-205 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2794/4514209130_591b01e8e8_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-205" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4514209100/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-230 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4023/4514209100_3d87fc01b7_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-230" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4513568565/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-271 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4041/4513568565_69ac8423c0_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-271" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4514209044/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-269 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4045/4514209044_cb4ba8f03e_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-269" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4514209252/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-296 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4003/4514209252_d9e55341a1_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-296" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4514209060/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-274 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2321/4514209060_57389fe87e_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-274" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4513568721/" title="tdbirth_04_03_10-337 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2270/4513568721_7fc7a9bfb4_o.jpg" width="530" height="530" alt="tdbirth_04_03_10-337" /></a>Elizabeth Boycehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01300209694019547556noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783256071151977430.post-64798787430894822362010-04-10T14:26:00.002-05:002010-04-10T14:32:34.399-05:00{Ducks & Bluebonnets} DFW Photographer- Bluebonnet PhotographerThat is right!

Due to schedule conflicts, I did not get to meet her mom and dad before the birth. She decided to make her arrival early and so we met for the first time at the birth. That is obviously not the ideal, but it was just lovely! They were so welcoming and I was excited to be there. In fact, Dad and I could have chatted it up all night. Good thing we had this sweet girl to switch our attention to.<br /><br />The love was just thick in the air and I am so honored to have captured these special moments forever. Mom is an avid scrapper and I hope to catch a peak at what she does with these!<br /><br />Enjoy you guys!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4476002616/" title="scbirth_03_24_10-140 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4037/4476002616_2550e7237c_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="scbirth_03_24_10-140" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4476002596/" title="scbirth_03_24_10-160 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4047/4476002596_e34c4a5515_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="scbirth_03_24_10-160" /></a><br /><br />Loved this quiet and important moment- a quick prayer before pushing.

They will now be help on March 27th and we may now have a spot or two open. Contact us for more details!</strong><br /></span></span><br /><br />That is right! March mini sessions are finally here. I apologize for the late announcements. I wanted to announce sooner, but I had to make sure I could get my baby bunnies. We have them though and are so excited for our mini sessions. They will be held Friday March 19th (It is spring break!) from 2-5pm and Saturday March 20th from 12-4pm. They will be at the Grapevine Botanical Gardens since the Arboretum won't let us bring in our bunnies :-)<br /><br />15 minute sessions (just long enough for the kids to love on the bunnies but not squish them) 3 digital images, and up to 3 subjects. For more kiddos, please book two sessions back to back. Session fee is $75 plus sales tax. Payment is due in full when booking.<br /><br />Can't wait to see everyone out there now that Spring has sprung!<br /><br /><a title="bunnies_blooms_03_2010 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4411166449/"><img alt="bunnies_blooms_03_2010" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4043/4411166449_00a51feae3_o.jpg" width="792" height="576" /></a></div>Elizabeth Boycehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01300209694019547556noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783256071151977430.post-46011955055295827452010-03-05T04:42:00.004-06:002010-03-05T04:51:11.619-06:00{Welcome Alexander} Wylie- Murphy- Plano Birth PhotographerThis birth was such a joy. Not only because it was incredibly fast, but because it was well deserved. This lovely family has a special place in my heart and they worked so hard to keep this little man healthy and strong while the waited for his arrival. Emotional rollercoaster! But he arrived peacefully and gently into the night to an amazingly strong mama who acheived her beautiful nautral birth. I know she was working hard, but she made it look so easy and beautiful. It was an honor to have been there. Thank you to both of you. He is just stunning.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4408588092/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-130 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4062/4408588092_66aa2b0286_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-130" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4407821395/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-161 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2763/4407821395_4a9debca66_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-161" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4407821409/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-158 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4030/4407821409_987d5b5246_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-158" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4407821379/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-172 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4008/4407821379_02f0f861bc_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-172" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4408588014/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-195 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2688/4408588014_cd223a25b2_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-195" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4408588002/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-224 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4062/4408588002_1eb5eb04a0_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-224" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4408587994/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-226 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4053/4408587994_1fd0a42100_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-226" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4407821317/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-233 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2427/4407821317_0fbe7aa9bb_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-233" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4408587946/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-261 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4007/4408587946_a831c5af3a_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-261" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4408587960/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-237 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4043/4408587960_2d42d51965_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-237" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4407821251/" title="rhbirth_03_02_10-276 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4035/4407821251_5246fc2267_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" alt="rhbirth_03_02_10-276" /></a>Elizabeth Boycehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01300209694019547556noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783256071151977430.post-77122937970539302852010-03-03T03:11:00.004-06:002010-03-16T18:35:58.851-05:00{Welcome Aaron} Mesquite- Garland- Dallas Birth PhotographerI had the joy of photographing the birth of a very special family. Not only did mom have to work so hard, but so did her support team. They were strong and determined and just amazing. I felt so honored to be a part of it.<br /><br />My favorite part about this birth, though, was the music. Mom was playing praise music. She would sing her heart out through the contractions, with her sister joining in. Admittedly, I sang too. How could you not! I think I had cried at least three times within the first hour of arriving. Such joy and emotion. It was beautiful.<br /><br />Here is an image of her singing through a contraction and raising her hands in praise.<br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-103 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4402911079/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-103" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4058/4402911079_682e72cc2b_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-199 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4403675894/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-199" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4049/4403675894_59ac427937_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-208 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4402911113/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-208" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2724/4402911113_1f80400b65_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-333 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4403675938/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-333" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2766/4403675938_08e112a383_o.jpg" width="539" height="530" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-372 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4403675832/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-372" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4031/4403675832_d9c0cbed7e_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-362 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4402911049/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-362" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2730/4402911049_24ee9a8842_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-352 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4402911067/"></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-401 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4402911019/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-401" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4058/4402911019_70ef5f0d99_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-412 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4402910987/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-412" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4040/4402910987_2f604fd1c2_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-476 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4402910961/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-476" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4050/4402910961_a84bd39315_o.jpg" width="539" height="530" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-487 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4403675758/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-487" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4047/4403675758_f89a411069_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-572 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4402910923/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-572" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4013/4402910923_f544189185_o.jpg" width="630" height="530" /></a><br /><br /><a title="dgbirth_02_26_10-587 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4403675730/"><img alt="dgbirth_02_26_10-587" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4051/4403675730_6e7bdd28a1_o.jpg" width="430" height="730" /></a>Elizabeth Boycehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01300209694019547556noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783256071151977430.post-55702583784051945862010-02-26T04:39:00.003-06:002010-02-26T04:50:54.169-06:00{So Cute} Dallas- Grapevine- Coppell Family PhotographerThis sweet girl was one of my favorite newborn sessions and somehow she has gotten big enough for her 6 mth session! How does this happen. Sigh.<br /><br />We went to the Gaylord to avoid the dreary and cold Dallas weather and enjoyed the controlled temp. She was an absolute doll, especially considering we woke her from a nap for her session. Plus we changed her outfit like 6 times!<br /><br />Either way, she was just beautiful and all smiles for me. It was a great session and we were rewarded with some beautiful images...<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4388909653/" title="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-195 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4021/4388909653_a50ff0bf67_o.jpg" width="400" height="600" alt="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-195" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4388909711/" title="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-224 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2765/4388909711_5d19b5e90c_o.jpg" width="509" height="400" alt="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-224" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4388913725/" title="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-185edit by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2735/4388913725_0e9721501b_o.jpg" width="400" height="509" alt="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-185edit" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4389677576/" title="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-138 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4052/4389677576_38f7f2a73f_o.jpg" width="600" height="400" alt="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-138" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4389677600/" title="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-427 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2709/4389677600_923a515971_o.jpg" width="400" height="600" alt="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-427" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4388909691/" title="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-364 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2782/4388909691_ff4e0fc3d3_o.jpg" width="400" height="600" alt="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-364" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12953473@N02/4389677560/" title="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-393 by Earth Mama Photog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4008/4389677560_ced1ec02e5_o.jpg" width="600" height="400" alt="lwsixmonth_02_20_10-393" /></a>Elizabeth Boycehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01300209694019547556noreply@blogger.com1
