We “heart” kisses
Posted on February 8, 2010
As soon as I found out the theme for the week at I heart faces
I knew exactly which photo I would enter.
This photo was taken on an engagement/new family photo shoot.
Jason and his two boys were very excited to be adding Kari to their family.
I thought a great way to represent this new engagement and new family would be
to focus on the hands of the boys showing their love for their family
with the “soon-to-be-married” couple in the background,
doing what “soon-to-be-married” couples do best…kiss!
I love this shot and can’t wait to try it again at other family sessions!

San Antonio Senior Portrait Photography: Elizabeth
Posted on January 30, 2010
I love finding new places in my city for photo shoots.
Elizabeth had some GREAT places in mind.
We went to San Pedro Springs Park (which is the 2nd oldest park in the nation)
and although it was a bally 35 degrees outside, Elizabeth was trooper.
We also went to the Central Library which is a HUGE library with 5 floors and it’s downtown.
I had so much fun working with you Elizabeth.
I had to get to these photos right away because they are all so beautiful.
I’ll have your proofing gallery up very soon,
but for now, enjoy a few sneak peaks!
I can’t wait to hear what you think!
Thanks for allowing me to capture this awesome time in your life!




She’s going to make one cute English teacher!

These last two are two of my favorites!

Book a Session – Help Haiti
Posted on January 23, 2010
I wanted to do something.
Rather than just sit at my computer and read the news about Haiti.
I wanted to do my part to help out.
But my part includes you.
For any photo session that is booked from now until Friday, February 4th at noon (CST)
I will donate 50% of the session fee to LCMS World Relief and Human Care.
Your session does not have to take place this week,
you just need to get it on the calendar and pay your session fee.


If you’d like to do even more check out my family blog for info on other ways you can help.
This promotion does not include wedding photography.

I heart faces – We are Family
Posted on January 17, 2010

I knew this photo would be perfect for the challenge over at I heart faces!
I took this photo at the end of my newborn session with Grant.
He was SOOO over the photo shoot and just ready to really sleep without all the noise of my shutter.
He seemed so content to be in grandma’s arm so I snapped a few of the two of them.
Then mom joined the party and it was an even better shot.
Three generations of family love!
They ARE family! And it shows!

Make sure to click on the camera above to see more awesome families!
