Family Urban Session Photographer | The Simpson Family

As a Family Urban Session photographer, one of my greatest joys comes from returning clients who want new pictures as their family grows (either with new members or just with progression of time). I love having the pleasure of seeing how tiny newborns develop into preschoolers full of personality and how big brothers and sisters adapt to their vital roles over the years. As a mother myself, I see a glimpse of my future as I capture families with older children. It reminds me of how quickly time flies and to really soak it all in as it’s happening.

There's A First For Everything

The Simpson family booked me for a baby plan when baby girl #2, Elena, was born in 2017. For her One Year portraits earlier this year, we decided to make it a family + cake smash session. I adore family portraits at this age. I truly think every family should have updated family portraits done when their babies turn one. It's such a huge milestone and fun age—they grow exponentially in those first twelve months!

We did this session in one of my favorite urban locations in Houston, and the creative results are so different but perfect! I really enjoy it when parents have unique artistic styles they want to try out for some out-of-the-box portraits. The abstract urban landscape gives dynamic dimension to the images, but it is also beautifully symbolic of the city where the Simpson’s have established their roots. If they ever relocate, they can look back on these photos to remember the place they first called home.

Camila One Year Photo Session - Houston Warehouse Studio

Happy Wednesday, friends! I am so excited to be sharing this sweet Vintage One Year session with sweet Camila. We went to the Houston Warehouse Studios. This worked well for this sweet family (and me!) because we got to avoid any crazy Houston winter weather.

This is also a great option for any client that may be on a time crunch and cannot really fit reschedules into their scheduling. Rain? No problem! Cold winter days? No problem! And yep, HOT Houston days? No problemo!

This sweet family and I went with a beautiful vintage vibe. We managed to get a ton of Camila by herself along with some family shots- I always recommend doing this for one year sessions. Our children are probably the most important thing in our lives (aside from our sweet spouses), so naturally we want to catch those fleeting moments of them. However, your babies will want pictures of you one day, so please- jump in the frames!

One of my favorite additions to this session was the floral crown and tee-pee that I use. It looked absolutely stunning in front of that exposed brick wall. The natural lighting paired with those natural elements made these images look soft, inviting and aesthetically pleasing.

Be sure to scroll below to view the highlights from this session. And as always- I want to hear from YOU! So if you are looking for a photographer to document your most precious moments in life, be sure to reach out and get in touch!

Best Birthday Photographer in Houston | Elena's First Birthday Session

Just look at those sweet pouty little lips! Who couldn't help but fall in love with this sweet girl? I know I sure did! Elena is a part of our Baby Planner program, so I've had the pleasure of seeing her a few times over the past months. Each time I get to see her, I am reminded just how quickly time truly does pass.

An Absolutely Adorable Session

Mom brought along the ride-on-lamb with her, which made for some absolutely adorable shots. Just look at that smile! Can't you hear the sound of her laughter fill the air? My favorite part from the session though had to be when Elena donned her sweet little overalls. Swoon! Do you think they make those in my size?!

As a mama myself, I feel as though I blink once, and an entire year has passed before my very eyes. It's for this reason that I truly adore what I do as a child photographer. I am given the unique gift of providing parents with a snap-shot in time. What an amazing gift it is! As I walk through the halls of my home, I am always reminded of the endless laughter-filled memories and quiet peaceful moments I've shared with my babies.

Houston Family Photographer | Baby A's First Birthday Beach-Side Bash

This family ranks high amongst my favorites! They are Baby Planner clients of mine, so I have had the immense pleasure of capturing their maternity, newborn and one-year photos! Getting to see this family (and families like this) grow in numbers and in love brings me so much satisfaction and happiness as a family photographer.

A Golden-Light Sunset Session

We decided on a secluded beach for our golden-light sunset session together to celebrate their littlest one's first birthday. Happy birthday Baby A! It was the absolute perfect location, with plenty of room to play and explore, but boy was it WINDY! Nonetheless, we were able to get some truly stunning images of this family of five. I love how thoroughly they enjoyed their time together. Baby A has the most striking eyes, that were highlighted by our natural light environment. Although this session was in celebration of A's first birthday, I was sure to capture some images of each child individually. After all, these little ones grow up so fast! How could I resist documenting their growth?!

Initially, we had hopes of getting a few more individual swimsuit images of little bit (speaking of her swimsuit, make sure you sneak a peek!! SO cute!!), but this Texas day was just too chilly! I know... chilly and Texas in a sentence together. Weird right?! The best tool a photographer can have in their arsenal is the ability to go with the flow and be able to think on their feet. Especially one that works with little ones! Plan B turned out to be just an equally gorgeous option, as we decided to snuggle Baby A up in the warmest, softest blanket we could find. The sweet snuggles made for some breathtaking images that I'm sure will be cherished for years to come.

Houston Newborn Photographer | Baby Zoe Wood

This has been an amazing year of returning families!! I always look forward to seeing familiar faces, catching up, and seeing how much the little ones have grown. The opportunity to develop deeper relationships as a Houston Newborn Photographer with these families might have secretly been the reason I started the Baby Plan. It’s working. ;)

Sleeping Beauty

Baby Zoe is a gorgeous baby girl! I had the pleasure of photographing baby #1 (a boy) for the Wood family a few years ago. I loved watching him develop his own little personality over the course of that year, and I am so excited to do the same with his baby sister. Plus, we made sure to include him in Zoe’s shoot, and I can’t believe how quickly he has transformed into such a handsome little boy! I almost didn’t recognize him. Zoe is so blessed to have such a sweet big brother to watch over her. I have no doubt that these two will have a close bond.

Mom loves all things floral and girly, so I made sure to do it up on this precious newborn session! I am obsessed with all of the color combinations and styles we used for this shoot. It was a lot of fun for me to be able to create some different looks so that the Woods have images they can use for just about anything—nursery décor, wall art, announcements, or even a mantelpiece display. I love the soft lavender blanket, rustic moss-covered basket, and pastel florals for the newborn portraits. They added a creative touch without going overboard. For the family portraits, we used a neutral background to really highlight the family as a unit and capture their interactions with each other.

I am so happy for this growing family, and I am thankful that they have chosen me as their photographer to document this special time in their lives. They are not just clients, they are friends. Congratulations Wood Family on baby #2—she is perfect!

Houston Family Photographer | Emma's First Year

Houston Family Photographer | Emma's First Year

Emma is such a precious little girl.  She was so expressive and excited.  It was a great time capturing her one year photos along with some updated family portraits.  I had the pleasure of photographing this family's maternity and newborn sessions, so I was honored when they contacted me about capturing Emma's one year session.

About this Session

Emma is such a happy, smiley baby.  Her sweet face, big eyes and giant smile made for some adorable pictures.  The big bows and accessories were merely icing on the cake.  Emma made my job as a newborn photographer such a joy!  The images of her in the high chair with the smash cake were just too sweet (see what I did there?).I love how she wanted to share with everyone, including her adorable puppy pal.  They were best buds!

Time to Clean Up!

After getting down and dirty in the smash cake it was time to get cleaned up.  Her bathtub images turned out beautifully.  The bubbles floating behind Emma and the was tub made for a great picture, but more importantly a detail that got Emma excited.  But there is nothing cuter than a happy baby being cheeky.  The images of Emma in the was basin from behind are precious. Their family portraits were a lot of fun too.  This family has so much fun together and the session was filled with laughter.  Their love for one another is beautiful and it shines through the images.2017-07-13_0059.jpg2017-07-13_0060.jpg2017-07-13_0063.jpg2017-07-13_0062.jpg2017-07-13_0064.jpg2017-07-13_0065.jpg2017-07-13_0067.jpg2017-07-13_0068.jpg2017-07-13_0066.jpg2017-07-13_0069.jpg2017-07-13_0071.jpg2017-07-13_0072.jpg2017-07-13_0073.jpg2017-07-13_0074.jpg2017-07-13_0076.jpg2017-07-13_0077.jpg2017-07-13_0078.jpg2017-07-13_0079.jpg2017-07-13_0080.jpg

Houston Baby Photographer | Grayson Turns One

Houston Baby Photographer | Grayson Turns One

I'm so excited that Grayson is one of my baby planner clients. It means I’ve had the pleasure of watching him grow up through the lens of my camera over this first year of his life. In this session, we captured his wide-eyed-wanderer, curious personality. It’s always fun to see what little characters those tiny babies from the newborn sessions turn into. Grayson was all the things you could dream for a little boy to be. Handsome, happy, adventurous, playful, cuddly with his momma, and brave like his daddy.

About Grayson's Milestone Session

By the time we reach the one year session with my baby planner clients, we have seen some pretty big moments together. As anyone would agree, a lot can change in a year.  This day and similar session are so evident of that. Mom had a fun little surprise to share at Grayson’s one year session…She’s expecting another baby and this time it’s a girl! We made sure to capture some of her adorable baby bump in one of my studio gowns.With one year under his belt, Grayson is going to make such a great big brother! He’ll definitely be able to teach his little sister how to dive into a cake and splash like crazy in the bath. Necessary talents for any proper one year old! <32017-07-13_0148.jpg2017-07-13_0149.jpg2017-07-13_0150.jpg2017-07-13_0151.jpg2017-07-13_0152.jpg2017-07-13_0153.jpg2017-07-13_0154.jpg2017-07-13_0155.jpg2017-07-13_0156.jpg2017-07-13_0157.jpg2017-07-13_0158.jpg2017-07-13_0159.jpg2017-07-13_0160.jpg2017-07-13_0161.jpg2017-07-13_0162.jpg2017-07-13_0163.jpg2017-07-13_0164.jpg

Houston Milestone Photographer | Happy Birthday Harrison!

Houston Milestone Photographer | Happy Birthday Harrison

Oh this precious boy absolutely stole my heart! Just look at that sweet little grin. I have to admit, sometimes I wish I could just snuggle these sweet faces during sessions such as this. But, we had one goal in mind. And that was to capture his sweet personality during this family's life. As Harrison's Houston Milestone Photographer, this was such a sweet treat! He was in such a wonderful mood during his session. It made this bright afternoon so incredibly enjoyable.

About this Milestone Session

This first year of life is so precious. I think that's why I was drawn to this style of photography in the first place. When my kiddo's first made their big debut into our family's waiting arms, I knew I wanted to document each milestone. No mater the size, first smile, first bath, first words, first steps. This first year is just that. A year full of firsts. For new parents, this is an incredible time of growth and learning. And even more so for baby!With every sound, every new sight, little Harrison was soaking up each new interaction. Like a tiny human sponge, the amount of information he is constantly learning is astounding. You could see his eyes light up at every sound. A bug would zoom by, followed shortly by his squeals of delight. I adored working with and spending this wonderful afternoon with Harrison and his sweet mama. After we were done with the cake smash portion of the session, I was so excited to capture some bubble loving images.What a great way to sneak some shots of true delight and get little man cleaned up! I LOVED how this collection turned out. It's easily one of my favorite first birthday sessions to date for me as a Houston Milestone Photographer!

Houston Milestone Photographer | Tessa

Houston Milestone Photographer | Tessa

Wow! One year old already! This sweet girl was on a baby plan with me as her Houston Milestone Photographer, and I have really enjoyed watching her grow over the year. It is so much fun seeing all of the new things she has learned from session to session. They grow up so fast, and that’s why mom knew it was important to capture every milestone of her first year, so they could smile back on it for many years to come!

About this Session

We completed her last session from this plan at the Houston Studio in downtown to create a different look. The first part of this session was a tea party theme to celebrate her birthday. I had a blast making the tissue paper flowers hanging on the walls. Doesn't it really make for a girly floral affect!?I could never forget this little princess and all of the laughs she has given me this past year! One of my favorite memories is how every time her mom would recite the words from the book Pout Pout Fish her sweet smile would light up the room! I am so thankful that I was able to capture so many heartwarming moments for this family! I hope to see little Tessa again soon!2017-05-02_0046.jpg2017-05-02_0047.jpg2017-05-02_0048.jpg2017-05-02_0049.jpg2017-05-02_0050.jpg2017-05-02_0051.jpg2017-05-02_0052.jpg2017-05-02_0053.jpg2017-05-02_0054.jpg2017-05-02_0055.jpg2017-05-02_0056.jpg2017-05-02_0057.jpg2017-05-02_0058.jpg2017-05-02_0059.jpg2017-05-02_0060.jpg2017-05-02_0061.jpg2017-05-02_0062.jpg2017-05-02_0063.jpg2017-05-02_0064.jpg2017-05-02_0065.jpg2017-05-02_0066.jpg2017-05-02_0067.jpg2017-05-02_0068.jpg

Houston One Year Birthday Photographer | Fabiana

Houston One Year Birthday Photographer | Fabiana

Goodness, how I adore watching these little ones grow! Fabiana was a newborn client of mine from last year. So needless to say, I was super excited when her family contacted me to take her one year portraits! I know it's cheesy, but I almost cried when I saw how big she's gotten! As a mama myself, I know how quickly that first year flies by. But for some reason, it still catches me off guard. Growth truly is one of the best things about this profession. It so wonderful seeing how much my clients have grown over that first year of life as their Houston One Year Birthday Photographer.I remember back to when she was just a tiny sleepy little thing. She was so good for her newborn session and continued that trend throughout this milestone session. Fabiana was full of spunk and smiles, constantly leaving me in a fit of giggles. Originally we planned to take these photos outdoors, but the Texas weather was uncooperative so we moved her session into my Pearland studio...and it worked out perfectly! I adore using this precious teepee for sessions just like this. It paired so incredibly well with the pink and gold theme we maintained throughout the entire session.Make sure to scroll down to see all of Fabiana's adorable sweetness from her first birthday celebration session! <3Houston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday PhotographerHouston One Year Birthday Photographer

Houston Child Portrait Photographer | Ivy Turns Two!

Houston Child Portrait Photographer | Ivy Turns Two!

Big birthday wishes to Miss Ivy who just turned 2 years old! I have had the pleasure of working with this family for three years now, and it’s always one of the biggest highlights of my year. They are the most adorable family, and are always so stylish. I always look forward to being able to see all of the fun outfits that they come up with for their photo shoot. The love that this family has for one another creates such a sense of pure magic throughout every single session that we share together, and this one is no exception! What a treat for this Houston Child Portrait Photographer!Little Ivy had so much fun with all of the props, which made me even more excited to see the results!  One of my favorite shots was with the giant swan, we were really able to capture her sweet and sassy personality, but it was pretty obvious that Ivy’s favorite part was being able to have that lollipop all to herself!We took these photos at Sugar and Cloth color wall, which is sadly no longer in existence. I am so thankful that I got to shoot some breathtaking photos there before they tore it down. As you can see, it was a great place to capture some vibrant photos. This was the perfect backdrop for a toddler’s birthday session!Houston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait Photographer2017-03-31_0072.jpgHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait PhotographerHouston Child Portrait Photographer

Houston Natural Light First Year Photographer

Houston Natural Light First Year Photographer - Sweet Little Daisy

 Oh my gracious guys…. This girl. How in the world could I possibly begin to express how incredibly adorable this little princess is?! As a Houston Natural Light First Year Photographer this session made me absolutely swoon! I love when sessions turn out as truly stunning as this one did. We were able to get so many adorable candid shots of Daisy at such a fun age. So many fun moments from the session, and such cooperative lighting that day! Between the ruffled tutu, vintage jumper or big-brother cuddles, there’s no way I could possibly pick my favorite! We approached this session as more of a lifestyle session and just let her do her sweet little thing. I wanted to start the session with her big brother so that she could get acclimated to her new environment and have the confidence to strut her sassy little stuff. Let me tell you, Miss Daisy did not disappoint! When it comes to this age, as a Houston Natural Light First Year Photographer, I have found that I really like to try and let them run the show. If she wanted to jump up and down, we jumped! When she wanted to cuddle, by George we cuddled! This approach really does allow for some great candid shots and organic smiles.A soft tulle tutu, precious golden crown, perfectly ruffled polka dots and a big ole’ bow to top it all off.  If this session had gotten any cuter we would have all magically morphed into a serenading band of Disney characters!Make sure to scroll down to see every silly giggle, every goofy grin, and one adorably ruffled bottom!Make sure to check out some more  Houston Natural Light First Year Photography from Taryn Melgoza  Houston Natural Light First Year Photographer2017-02-16_0032.jpg2017-02-16_0033.jpg2017-02-16_0034.jpg2017-02-16_0035.jpg2017-02-16_0036.jpg2017-02-16_0037.jpg2017-02-16_0038.jpg2017-02-16_0039.jpg2017-02-16_0040.jpg2017-02-16_0042.jpg2017-02-16_0041.jpg2017-02-16_0043.jpg2017-02-16_0044.jpg2017-02-16_0045.jpg2017-02-16_0046.jpg2017-02-16_0048.jpg2017-02-16_0047.jpg2017-02-16_0049.jpg2017-02-16_0050.jpg2017-02-16_0051.jpg

Houston Baby Photographer Studio | Camila

I hope everyone has been enjoying their weekend!  I was slow going with the blogs this week because I am on a special trip to mentor one of the leading newborn photographers in the industry.  I needed to make sure I keep my blog up to date, so being that I am a Houston Baby Photographer Studio in Pearland, what better way to kick off this week's blog than share this adorable one year session?!This client was one of my baby planner clients from 2015.  I photographed their maternity, newborn, four month session, six month (sitter) session, and then her one year session (this one)!!  Being a Houston Baby Photographer Studio, it is just such an honor and great pleasure to see these babies grow.  We shot Camila's session in my trusty favorite Houston field.  I styled this session with lots of soft girl tones, pinks, creams and some pops of color here and there.  I really did love this one.  We also incorporated some family shots into this session, as mom and dad needed some updated shots of them.  I also always encourage family shots for the one year, as it is just such an amazing time in a family's life.  We also wanted to do some singles of this sweet girl, because, hey... who wouldn't?!  Look at that face!!We had so much fun incorporating all of mom’s ideas into this session.  She also planned a bumble bee birthday party that was so adorable!  We incorporated this theme into her cake smash portion of her Houston Baby Photographer Studio session. The wildflowers were starting to bloom around this time last year so it made for a really beautiful session with gorgeous evening light.  Keep scrolling down to see highlights from this adorable photo shoot!Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgHouston Baby Photographer Studio.jpgBeautiful Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgFine Art Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgStyled Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgGorgeous Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgBest Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgStunning Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgDreamy Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgMagical Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgAmazing Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgLovely Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgPerfect Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgFantastic Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgFamily Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgCake Smash Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgOne Year Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpgFirst Birthday Houston Baby Photography Studio.jpg

Houston Baby Photographer Studio

Natural Light Houston Baby Photographer | Harper

Happy Hump Day!  Looking forward to the weekend and being able to snuggle my babies!  This session was done at my natural light location here in Houston that I just absolutely love.  Being a Natural Light Houston Baby Photographer, the options are limitless, really, so I find that when I use my favorite locations, my sessions are kind of unique to me.  Since I know the light so well there, it just allows my creativity to flow and really shine.  Any who, enough about me, and more about this session and why I love being a Natural Light Houston Baby Photographer!We incorporated big brother and he was just so incredibly sweet and adorable.  A precious relationship that these two already share that really is special.  We used light blues, pinks, and yellows to style this session.  The colors went so well with the amazing lemonade stand themed birthday party.   We used a few props that I and mom brought along to really allow for the idea of this session stand out.  We used a white bucket, lemons, and fresh flowers.  Mom even brought a full-sized lemonade stand that dad built to the session!    Of course, we also used real lemons and lemonade too! We finished the session with a cake smash and she LOVED the cake.  This was such a fun themed session and being a Natural Light Houston Baby Photographer, it really made my heart ZING! :)  And I love when my clients vision come to life and I can create what they have in their minds.  It was just absolutely perfect.Houston baby photographer.jpgBeautiful Houston baby photographer.jpgLovely Houston baby photographer.jpgFine Art Houston baby photographer.jpgNatural Light Houston baby photographer.jpgCake Smash Houston baby photographer.jpgStyled Houston baby photographer.jpgOne Year Houston baby photographer.jpgFirst Birthday Houston baby photographer.jpgStudio Houston baby photographer.jpgStylized Houston baby photographer.jpgHouston baby photographer Cake Smash.jpgtimeless Houston baby photographer.jpgbest Houston baby photographer.jpgGorgeous Houston baby photographer.jpg

Natural Light Houston Baby Photographer

On Location Houston Family Photographer | Miller Family

Happy Saturday friends!  Kicking off this blog post is the Miller Family. This precious bunch booked me to be their On Location Houston Family Photographer and I was so excited because they were out of state and were here visiting relatives.I just feel so honored that they trusted me enough to do this for them, especially since Houston just has so many other baby and family photographers to choose from. It’s very humbling and I am very grateful. OK! Now for the deets!We went to a local park in Pearland to shoot their family portraits.  This sweet family wore various tones of blue for their outfits. The goal of the session was to document sweet William and to document him turning 1. We even squeezed in a cake smash to just make this session the perfect session to celebrate his first birthday! It was a windy and crazy weather day…it started out sunny, then rained on us with lots of wind, then the sun came back out. We managed to work around the weather to make this a memorable session for their family. We also included some extended family photos with the grandparents and I know they will cherish those images with their sweet grandson.  The highlights from their sweet and perfect  session are below! I would love to be your On Location Houston Family Photographer and to be able to document your family's special milestones!On Location Houston Family PhotographerOn Location Houston Family Photographer propsOn Location Houston Family Photographer candidposed On Location Houston Family PhotographerOn Location Houston Family Photographer natural lightbest On Location Houston Family Photographerpremier On Location Houston Family Photographersweet On Location Houston Family PhotographerOn Location Houston Family Photographer by Taryn MelgozaOn Location Houston Family Photographer grandparentsOn Location Houston Family Photographer cake smashfunny On Location Houston Family Photographeradorable On Location Houston Family PhotographerOn Location Houston Family Photographer naturalsunset On Location Houston Family Photographergolden hour On Location Houston Family Photographer

Houston Baby Photographer | Sophia's Cookie Smash

Up next on the blog (I am SO enjoying going through these past sessions) is when I got to be sweet Sophia's Houston Baby Photographer. I just loved this session so much because it screams all things GIRL!!We took to my trusty favorite field here in Houston for sweet Sophia’s darling session. With soft girlie tones, pinks, creams, ruffles galore and even a chandelier that we hung in a tree, this session was meant for a princess. We also implemented my ruffle teepee, added some pink balloons and topped it off with fresh flowers. It was just incredibly soft… and as I said before, majorly girlie! I just absolutely adored this session.Another reason that I loved this one so much is that this precious family was from out-of-town. Being a Houston Baby Photographer, I just love having the opportunity to meet these folks from out of town and giving them just a slice of what I am all about. Sophia’s grandparents also joined us for the session and we snapped a few with them too. The wildflowers were starting to bloom around this time last year so it made for a really beautiful session with gorgeous evening light.Below are highlights from this sweet session, and if you'd like to book a session with me, be sure to reach out! I'd love to work with you!Houston Baby Photographer.jpgHouston Styled Baby Photographer.jpgHouston Mommy & Baby Photographer.jpgon location Houston Baby PhotographerHouston Baby Photographer familybest Houston Baby Photographersweet Houston Baby Photographeradorable Houston Baby Photographer

Houston Baby Photographer

Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studio | Harper

I hope everyone is having a great weekend and enjoying this gorgeous almost spring-like weather. Someone told me the bluebonnets were already blooming….in February! That tells you we have definitely had some warmer weather so far this year. I’m still catching up from all the blog posts from last year and here is another favorite. We did this session in Wichita Falls (we have family there) in March of last year. Having a Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studio, it was nice to see other parts of Texas and what it has to offer.  It was a simple and fun cake smash/one year and also a fantastic baby #2 announcement!! I was beyond excited when my cousin asked me to photograph her daughter’s cake smash session.   She knew I would be in town a month before her actual birthday and the timing could not have been more perfect.  We also had some seriously gorgeous golden lighting for the evening which made for dreamy images.This session was filled with creams, pinks, and a fun pop of teal green.  It was all things girl-y and it literally could not have been sweeter. I took to my the famous cream ruffled tee-pee and incorporated a Jenny Lind pink rocking chair with flowers.  I was sweet, yet delicate touches to complete this gorgeous one year cake smash session.Being that I shoot mostly in my Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studio, it was really fun to switch it up here by shooting in a completely new location for me…and if you keep scrolling, you’ll see just how adorable this little family is!!! By the way, baby brother was welcomed by their family in November and is such an adorable little guy, just like his big sister.Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studionatural light Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studiobeautiful Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studiobest Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studiosweet Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studiobest Houston Newborn and Baby Photography StudioHouston Newborn and Baby Photography Studio cake smashfun Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studiogorgeous Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studiobaby girl Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studiocandid Houston Newborn and Baby Photography StudioHouston Newborn and Baby Photography Studio portraitspremier Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studiofun Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studioperfect Houston Newborn and Baby Photography Studio

Baby Photographer in Houston Tx | Addison Turns One

Happy Friday friends! I hope everyone had a wonderful week and is ready for a lovely Valentine's weekend. I have been going through a bunch of my past Baby Photographer in Houston Tx sessions, trying to organize them, and trying to figure out what to blog next and remembered this sweet session…. Baby Addison’s one year old DONUT smash session!!! Yep, you read that right… she smashed donuts instead of a cake… and I L-O-V-E-D it!!We headed to my favorite field here in the Houston area to do this session. We focused mainly on sweet Addison but also got some family shots in there, too. Mom and Dad loved my ruffle teepee (a client fave), and we also used my mint green children’s chair and just a few vintage styled props. Have I mentioned yet how much I loved this unique baby photography session? I love all the props that we used, including the themed carrier from here, the soft colors of clothing that they chose… the creams… the pinks… the DONUTS, oh my! I just loved every inch of it. Mom wanted to do a cake smash, but without the mess…so she brought a variety of donuts for Addison to “smash”. I loved how different it was but still so incredibly adorable! And much easier to clean too! Win for all! <3  I think being a fine art Baby Photographer in Houston Tx is so much fun, especially for sessions like this!When I reflect on this session, it really makes me feel so grateful. Grateful for these wonderful clients of mine who are just so sweet, and who value documenting these beautiful photography sessions as their babies turn one year old.  I am so grateful that they choose me to be their Baby Photographer in Houston Tx.  And even though some babies are just a little unsure about the crazy/awesome lady with the camera (me), I still manage to get those beautiful smiles, their sweet spirit and capture who they are at such a young age.  And that's what this job is all about folks! ;-)Here are the highlights from this sweet session!Baby Photographer in Houston Txon location Baby Photographer in Houston Txnatural light Baby Photographer in Houston Txcandid Baby Photographer in Houston Txsweet Baby Photographer in Houston Txfun Baby Photographer in Houston TxBaby Photographer in Houston Tx on locationBaby Photographer in Houston Tx natural lightbeautiful Baby Photographer in Houston Txbest Baby Photographer in Houston Txpremier Baby Photographer in Houston TxBaby Photographer in Houston Tx amazingBaby Photographer in Houston Tx portraits

Baby Photographer in Houston Tx

Houston Tx Baby Photographer | First Birthday Fun

I feel so blessed to be a Houston Tx Baby Photographer. I especially love doing this job when I have clients who book me for milestone baby sessions during that first year.  I just love watching these sweet babies grow!Ava was turning one when these images were taken, so mom requested that I get some focusing on just her, a few with her big sister Maddie, and also a few family portraits.  Sometimes, being a natural-light family Houston Tx Baby Photographer, can be challenging with our frequent rainy conditions. While it did rain a ton during the days leading up to this session, we were able to work around the puddles and capture this special time for this amazing family.This session was taken at a favorite location of this Houston Tx Baby Photographer.  This session included some of my client’s most requested props. Some worth mentioning are: my cream ruffle teepee, small green chair, and one of my cream dresses from my baby and child studio collection.   Because I am a full service Houston Tx Baby Photographer, I offer wardrobe pieces to my clients to give that organic and timeless touch to each of my sessions.  We also incorporated Ava’s cake smash photography session in this collection.  Since she wasn’t feeling her cake smash, the whole family got involved to create some of my favorite candid family photos ever!Here are the highlights from this one year and family session!Houston Tx Baby Photographer on locationHouston Tx Baby Photographer in a fieldnatural light Houston Tx Baby PhotographerHouston Tx Baby Photographerposed Houston Tx Baby Photographerbest Houston Tx Baby PhotographerHouston Tx Baby Photographer natural lightsisters Houston Tx Baby Photographeradorable Houston Tx Baby Photographeramazing Houston Tx Baby Photographeron location Houston Tx Baby Photographeroutdoor Houston Tx Baby PhotographerHouston Tx Baby Photographer outdoorchild and Houston Tx Baby Photographerfamily and Houston Tx Baby Photographeradorable Houston Tx Baby Photographerorganic Houston Tx Baby Photographer

Houston Tx Baby Photographer

houston baby boy photography | baby blues

Sometimes, I have clients who request a location completely different than my usual outdoor field setting. When this family contacted me, mom knew she wanted something in the city, so I chose this location in downtown Houston to create more of New Orleans urban vibe. It made for such a fun houston baby boy photography session and I love how it turned out!I had the pleasure of photographing this family for little man's newborn portraits a year ago and then again for his one year houston baby boy photography session this past spring. He was such a smiley boy which made for the best images! Those blue eyes are definitely going to be lady killers in a few years. And, their entire family is just so photogenic and that it makes my job easy. ;-) I hope you enjoy a peek at his adorable “urban” one year & family session!I just love these unique and different houston baby boy photography sessions.  If you'd like to book a session with me, I'd love to meet you.  Please do get in touch via email, text, message, however.  I would love to document these moments for you too!! <3  Be sure to click on my website: www.tarynmelgozaphoto.com to get those contact details, and to view highlights from this session, be sure to take a peek below!houston baby boy photographyurban houston baby boy photographyoutdoor houston baby boy photographyon location houston baby boy photographyfamily houston baby boy photographycandid houston baby boy photographyhouston baby boy photography studioposing houston baby boy photographysweet houston baby boy photographybest houston baby boy photographyadorable houston baby boy photographyorganic houston baby boy photographypremier houston baby boy photographyhouston baby boy photography Portraitsstyled houston baby boy photographynatural light houston baby boy photographyperfect houston baby boy photographyhouston baby boy photography on locationstudio houston baby boy photographyfun houston baby boy photographyhouston baby boy photography on locationhouston baby boy photography styledcute houston baby boy photographybest houston baby boy photography
