{Naked is best} Mckinney- Allen- Frisco Child Photographer

Maybe it was the weather this last week. Or me? But I walked in the door to See Eli again for his three month session and he immediately burst into tears! I was a little worried about what that meant for the rest of the session. He did cheer up though (after giving us so seriously cute pouty faces) after we discovered that he was much happier... naked! We were great with that and happily did the session with him that way. The chub was too much! Enjoy these!

{Where are the smiles?} Frisco- Mckinney- Allen Child Photographer

I was so excited to see Miss Ella again. She has gotten SO BIG! However, she seemed a little unsure why I had invaded her house, dressed her up and stood in front of her with a toy acting like an idiot. ;) So she decided to stare at us for three hours. I think we got her to crack a few half smiles, but nothing like a real smile. I figure we just have to wait for the 6 month session. Either way, we got some beautiful images and the best part... a sleeping shot!











And last but not least, an example of how much she has grown...

{Stormy Afternoon} Garland- Rowlett- Rockwall Maternity Photographer

I had the joy of doing a maternity session for Gabrielle this week. Her session was a baby gift and we had so much fun! She is a budding photographer as well and we got to swap photos. It was a lot of fun. We had an amazing storm hit while we were working and it resulted in these beautiful window images with rain all over them. And can I just say that I WISH my belly was this gorgeous. Seriously, not even a stretch mark. She is just gorgeous, swollen ankles and "mango, mango" nail polish and all! LOL!

Enjoy hon!

The rain splatter ones...

I ADORE this one. It is so beautiful. She just looks amazing and sultry, just as every expecting mom should.

Then Gabrielle was brave enough to head outside in the rain soaked fields... barefoot!! Honestly, the light was amazing and so was her dress. The result was worth it!

She looks so calm in this one. Just soaking up the sun (ummm, that was hidden behind clouds ;)

{Off to the Circus} Trophy Club- Grapevine- Irving Childrens Photographer

I had the joy of going to the circus on Saturday! I was asked to Photograph Avey's first birthday in Trophy Club. It was so cool! Her mama put a lot of time and thought into it and I think it paid off. They had a photobooth, a wagon parade, pin the nose on the clown, a bubble machine, and much more. They even had peanuts, popcorn, and cotton candy!

Here are your sneak peaks! Your family is so wonderful... thanks for sharing Avey's special day with me!

This was probably one of my favs... we tried so hard to get the nose on her and everyone smiling at the camera. Instead she had her nose on and ripped g-ma's off! LOL! It resulted in this...

Avey really wanted popcorn. I mean, it was HER birthday afterall! But this little guy, no matter how nicely she asked, wasn't sharing. She would rub his arm, smile, and be so sweet. Grandma and Grandpa came to the rescue eventually, but not before we got this look of determination.

She gave up on eating the smash cake (vanilla) when she realized there was chocolate. Smart girl!

The amazing cake... although it came with quite the drama! Thank goodness for pre-paying.

One of the few smiles we got out of the birthday girl. Fevers on your birthday are no fun.

A quick family photo. With a balloon. Who invited the white balloon? Don't they know white is never a good idea for pictures? Sheesh.
