The Wedding | McKinney Texas Wedding Photography

If you know me, you know that I don't "do" weddings.  Now don't get me wrong.  I love weddings.  I love the gorgeous dresses, the beautiful flowers, the intimate moments.   But with all the fun comes a ton of stress!  Being asked to photograph this wedding was such an honor that I had to accept and I am so glad that I did. Tory is practically family.   I have known her since birth and always adored the fact that we shared a name.  It still amazes me that she is a grown up!   Here are some of my favorites from their big day.  Enjoy!

 

Costume Contest 2011 ~ Halloween Mini Sessions Coming Soon!

Bring your pirates, your fairies, your monkeys, your..... I can't wait to see what costumes everyone is going to have this year. If you participate last year, you know how much fun this can be.

Siblings can be added for $10 each or book additional sessions for only $20.

The weekend of Halloween, I will post one picture from each session on facebook and my blog and voting will begin! This year's winner will receive a FREE 8x8 Organic Bloom frame in the color of their choice and a mounted print to put in it.   I absolutely love these frames and I know you will, too!

Little J | Newborn Photographer Irving Dallas McKinney TX

It was such a pleasure seeing this family again, especially with their new addition! It is so much fun watching families grow.  Their big sis will be the focus of our next session.  I can't wait!

Zoe | Senior Photographer McKinney Dallas TX

The beginning of your senior year in high school is exciting on so many levels.  It is going to be a year full of firsts and lasts.  Zoe was a true pleasure to photograph.  She is stunning, with her long red hair and picked the perfect outfits to compliment her beauty and her personality.  I enjoyed her sense of humor and listening to her talk about her life.  It was a very eventful session, but totally worth all the unexpected places and visitors!  Thanks, Zoe!

Finally! | McKinney Dallas Baby and Family Photographer

I had been waiting to get my hands on this little doll since she was born!  Mom, dad, and sister braved the incredible heat and I am so glad they did.  We were all more than toasty by the end of the session, but it was definitely worth it.  Looks like this little one is going to have the same stunning blue eyes as her sister.  I'm not sure how daddy is ever going to be able to say no to these two!

Home Sweet Home | Dallas Irving Newborn Photographer

This is the same little man from the birth I posted not long ago.  And yes, I am a bit behind on my blogging!  It was so nice to see him again.  I loved how attentive his big sister was and how his big brother was still trying to figure out why another baby was there.  LOL!  They were all so cute!  It is so much fun watching a family grow.  It seems like yesterday I was taking SJ's newborn pictures and now the house is full of love and laughter (and diapers and crying...but that part of life will change all too soon).

The Carbajal Family | Mckinney TX Family Photographer

I love this family.  Their oldest daughter was in my kinder class at church and she was the sweetest thing.  I couldn't believe how much they had all grown since our last session over a year ago.  I'm sure their oldest son felt the same way.  It was his first time back home since I last saw them.  He has been off serving our country and I have no doubt that they were glad to have him home.  Maybe the next time he is on leave I can get some shots of him in uniform.  Thank you for braving the heat with me! 

See the look of adoration?.... I saw it on each one of their faces during our session.
