{Welcome LJ~ July 30, 2009} McKinney- Frisco- Allen Birth Photographer

EMP is pleased to announce the birth of LJ. After a bumpy ride, he made his appearance Thursday afternoon. By then, I am pretty sure I was falling asleep standing up ;) Mom worked very hard and labored all night and through the day. She was amazing. She had a great support team too. In the end, he ended up being born by c-section and I was blessed enough to be allowed in both the operating room and baby nursery. Yeah! Enjoy you guys and I can't wait to see him again!

Walking the halls and resting inbetween contractions...

I wish I could remember what they were so excited about. I have no idea. It is all a blur. But I loved this picture anyway...

Finally... the little person we have all been waiting to meet!

The official weight...

Look at all his hair. It was just gorgeous.

I adore this shot. The first feeding. It exemplifies love in so many ways.

Hi mom! Nice to meet you!

{Yearbook Family Photos} Mckinney- Plano- Allen Yearbook Photographer

I had the pleasure of doing yearbook photos for one of the homeschool groups that we belong to. It was so much fun! Can I brag a little and say that homeschool kiddos have to be the most delightful children on the planet? They are so polite and kind. I seriously enjoyed myself. Not only that, but they are so used to being together as siblings that they are very natural in photos.

So, I decided to do a sneak peak from each of my mini sessions. I had to reschedule and so we lost quite a few families. Hopefully we will get everyone next year! Everyones proofs will be up soon, but in the meantime, something to tide you over!

{Bluebonnet & Duck Mini Sessions Round 2 sneak peaks} Plano- Dallas- McKinney Childrens Photographer

Here are the sneak peaks from Friday's Mini session. I was so thrilled that the weather held out for us and we were able to get some beautiful images. Although I was a tad disappointed as I had several families willing to come in the rain with boots and umbrellas and do their session anyway. How cute would that have been! Maybe I'll still try.

So here they are, in order of session time...

Can I just tell you how hard it is to get 3 babies to all look at the camera (never mind smiling) when they are sitting in bluebonnets with ducks? Nearly impossible. We were SOOOO close with this one though.

This might be one of my favs of all the BB sessions... I just love the lines and curves. Plus, "D" was a REALLY cool kid.
