Fine Art Newborn Photographer Houston

I am so excited to share this sweet Fine Art Newborn Photographer Houston session with you all.  If you missed this sweet family's maternity session, you can find it here!  It was such a b eautiful session, so to say that I was super excited for this newborn session, is a little bit of an understatement. 

About this Newborn Session

This sweet baby was a doll to work with.  I know I say it often, but it really takes me back to when my kids were just little and tiny.  And for that, I am so grateful.  When I was a little girl, I never envisioned myself being a businesswoman.  I never envisioned myself being anything, really... but I always knew that I wanted to be a mother.  I pictured my house filled with the sounds of little laughter, of my curly headed little girl running to greet her daddy from a long day of work, the heavenly squeals that erupt from her now are something that were made from my dreams.The way her fingers curl around my neck when I am rocking her to sleep, the way she rubs my cheek when we lay in my bed is just a touch of what I could possibly imagine when I was little.  And when we snuggle in the bed, and she leans over to kiss me, just to say that she loves me... I am convinced that that is what heaven on earth must FEEL like.I am so excited for this journey for you, Everleigh and for your sweet mama.  You, my new friend, are seriously what dreams are made of and I am so honored I got to be one of the first people you met.

Houstons Best Fine Art Birthday Photographer

It's incredible how many babies and families I get to meet with my line of work.  Sometimes, I think to myself how blessed me and business are.  These are tangible memories my clients and I create together, and it's such an honor to play such an integral role in their lives.  Sweet Clara and her mommy saw me a bunch this year so it was so fun to watch her grow and I was so excited for her last session to complete out the baby plan that they chose.I loved this session so much so, that I have one of them hanging in my studio (the wedding shoe shot)!!!  This family was a complete dream to work with.

About this Houston Child Session

I look back on my children's first year of life.  The first couple of weeks- adjusting to the sleepless nights.. partly because the babes needed fed, but partly because I was terrified of the newness.  I blinked and before I knew it, they were crawling.  Between being a newborn and crawling, I got to see those first smiles, the way my babies lit up when I would pick them up, the safety and comfort I provided was a feeling I cannot ever forget.After they started crawling, it seemed like I blinked again and they were walking.  This first year is so easily forgotten and goes by so incredibly fast.  So when these sweet mamas choose a baby plan, I know that they will cling to these images in the same way that I do mine.  It's such an honor to be this person for them. <3  Be sure to scroll below to see the highlights from sweet Clara's session!

Houstons Best Fine Art Maternity Photographer - Jessica W

Happy Wednesday everyone!  Its been a busy week of sessions so I think it's safe to say the fall crazy busy season has begun!   Always tough deciding which sessions to blog, but this one was so beautiful, so I naturally picked it.  This was one of my most memorable Fine Art Maternity sessions and I just loved everything about it.  Let me paint the picture for you.

About this Houston Fine Art Maternity Session

Golden evening light, pink flowy dress, your prince charming, beautiful mama... it's seriously something out of a fairy tale.  So much so, I would go as far as saying this reminded me of Cinderella and Prince Charming.  I remember watching this movie as a little girl.  It was my favorite Disney movies.  To me, it just felt magical.  And what little girl doesn't dream about magic.  Little did I know, when I was watching that movie, one day, I would create my own fairy tale.  It was much different than in the movies, but a fairy tale none-the-less.The pitter-pat of tiny little toes running through the house, the look my prince charming gives my babies when they are snuggling on the couch, the softness my daughter has when she plays with my hair, it's seriously what dreams are made of.  This sweet mama and her prince charming will get to experience that when their new arrival comes and I just want to jump for joy for each client who walks through my doors.  It's hard to describe what that overwhelming sense of the purest of love feels like.  And it's only to be experienced when you have children.  It's just... everything. <3Hair and makeup (which I always recommend) by: Bridgette Stockton of Beauty Call Hair and Make-up

Houston Fine Art Newborn Photography - Baby Landon

Welcome to my little, humble spot on the web.  I am so glad you're here and reading this.  Blogging is something that is very time consuming but also very important.  Important to you, as a potential client, and important to me to keep myself accountable and present in my galleries and to monitor (and appreciate) my growth.  Over the course of the years, I have done a multitude of types of sessions.  And over the years, I finally figured out what my favorite and specialty is- the art of newborn photography.  After this realization, I also knew that aside from just a newborn photographer, I wanted to specialize in Houston Fine Art Newborn Photography.

About this newborn photography session

You know what I love most about newborn pictures?  The smell of their sweet fuzzy little heads.  That's different, right?  haha, I embrace my uniqueness and let me explain.  You see, I have two kids of my own.  And each time I do a session, it makes me remember my own babies.  It helps me to hold onto those moments that I desperately cling on to.  Moments that, at the time, didn't necessarily register how HUGE they were going to be, but moments that I desperately NEED to remember.That first cry.  The first glorious cry that you hear when your baby is born.  That warmth when you do skin-to-skin for the first time- physically and a warmth in your heart that is so overwhelming and so time-stop worthy- all you can do is cry when you look at this little human in your arms.  The toe curling pain when they latch on for the first time, but you keep doing it because that's what our bodies are designed to do and you'd do anything for this little thing.  And if you chose not to nurse, let me not forget those sweet little noises that our babies make when they drink milk of any kind.  That noise that sounds like comfort and love all coming from this tiny soul.  And then the smell of their fuzzy heads.  The freshness, the smell that I'll never forget... I can't forget it.  The smell that reminded me that they once lived in my belly, but now, I hold them in my arms.  The feeling of comfort that only I or my husband could provide.  Those moments- let me never forget.  Pictures take me back in time and I am so grateful for them.  Thank you for bringing your babies to me so I can go back in time and remember just how much moments mean. 

What makes me different than other newborn photographers in Houston?

What exactly is Fine Art Photography?  When you come to me, I want to make your experience like no other that you have had.  I want you to remember our time together and my clients leave my studio at the end of their session clients-turned-friends.  We meet and talk on the phone to plan each session together, spend as much time as we need at your session and after.  I help from wardrobe all the way up to which pictures you want hung in your home.  It's an experience that I know I want to offer to every person who walks into my world.

Houston Fine Art Maternity Photographer - Edna

Have you ever gone through images from your past?  When you do, do memories come rushing to you?  The smell of the house that the picture was taken in, the way it was decorated (beautiful to you despite how dated that image looks these days to others), the sounds that were going on around you.  It's incredible what one image that you hold in our hands can create.  In your heart, in your mind, and the tangible memory that just a single portrait can do for you.  I met Edna and her sweet family back in May.  Being a Houston Fine Art Maternity Photographer, my goal is to create these tangible memories for each one of my clients. 

What do these documented memories look like?

Perhaps these memories will be for big sister.  The way her mom looked that evening when we did this session.  Having two kids of my own, I can completely relate to the feeling of extra weight, love wrinkles, some on my hips, some on my thighs and on some days... just not feeling beautiful-especially because of how quickly our bodies change during pregnancy.  But good heavens, the way that her oldest looked at her that night.  I think in that moment, big sister thought her mama was the most beautiful woman to walk the face of the earth.  And I agreed that night.  But those looks.  They demand to be documented.That happiness, the smell of the new summer blooms, the sound of the crickets, those annoying mosquitoes that aggravate nearly everyone, but the laughs we all got from it, and the pats coming from mama's tummy of a new life that soon will be earth side.Let me not forget the daddy!  They seem, sometimes, to get lost in the hustle and bustle of this new baby and new everything.  I will never forget the way that my husband looked the day he met my kids for the first time.  He explained to me that the tears that rolled down his face each time, were not only pure and perfect love for my children.  But that they were overwhelming sense of relief, happiness, and of course love.  Love.  Dad's provide safety and a love that is immeasurable and like no other.  Very unique to a man, but very needed.I am so grateful I played this part in this documentation of this part of their lives.  I hope sweet Edna and her beautiful and perfect family cherish these memories for many years to come. <3

Houston Baby Girl Photographer

I have started to catch up (again) on blogging and am so extremely excited to get into the fall craze with client pictures that is coming very soon.  Being a Houston photographer, juggling work, family life, and everything in between, there is just always a bit of crazy!!  I would not have it any other way! ;)  Up next on the blog is this Houston Baby Girl Photographer session, sweet Charlize. 

About this Houston Newborn Photography Session

We took to my South Houston (Pearland) studio to document this fleeting time for this sweet family.  This session was shot in May and I just loved the way it all turned out.  Charlize was SUCH a beautiful baby and I was honored when my husband's cousin reached out to me to be their Houston Baby Girl Photographer!  We did this session in the studio about 10 days after Charlize was born, which I have found to an ideal time to photograph a newborn session.  Photographing a newborn around this age is important because it’s easier to create those adorable posed photos while they are still sleepy and squishy.It is SO essential we document that newborn phase before they grow out of it (which happens insanely fast).    Charlize had a lovely head of hair which made it fun picking out headbands for her session.  I loved her froggy pose on the mint color blanket so much, its now a 20x30 canvas in the studio for all to see!  The family and parent photos from this session are some of my favorites too.  They chose one of my popular Baby Collections with multiple sessions throughout baby’s first year, so I will be seeing them often over the next few months and I can’t wait to watch Charlize grow!

Houston Fine Art Newborn Photographer, Mac

Whew!  Blogs, blogs, and more blogs.  I just want to take the opportunity to shout out to the rooftops how incredibly proud of my colleagues I am.  You know, when I decided that I wanted to pave the path to become a Houston Fine Art Newborn Photographer, I did not wholly recognize how much work goes into this job.  From blogging, to staying relevant on Google, to emailing, to styling each session for the parents, from sending contracts, retainers, invoices, and sooooooooooo much more, I feel like anyone who owns their own business really deserves a huge pat on the back.Do not get me wrong, I would have it no other way, but I do feel it is important to note that when you book a session with me, it goes far beyond just clicking a picture with my camera.  Literally, my blood, sweat and tears (some happy, some not so much) has gone into this career and I am SO happy you're here and you support this hard work.  So for that, thank you.  And to all my colleagues in the industry... you ROCK, you really do!  Up next on the blog is sweet Mac! 

About this Houston Newborn Photography Session

We took to my Houston newborn studio to document sweet Mac's arrival and very first few days of his new little life.  We included parent and sibling shots, which are always a joy to me.  Mac was such a sweet little guy.  He is the first BOY for this family so his parents really wanted to incorporate muted boy colors to keep his session timeless and gender appropriate.  His parents are UT fans so we made sure to incorporate some burnt orange into his session with one of the prop shots.  Big sister was so excited to be included and was just so easy to work with.  I love it when siblings make my job easy!When mom and dad hired me to be their Houston Fine Art Newborn Photographer, I was over the moon excited.  I especially love that since I am a full service photographer, that their experience does not end at the session.  It goes beyond that.  We meet a couple short weeks later to go over their images together, and also to pick out collections that fit their needs best.  We talk about the first few weeks of their new life and it gives us all a sense of knowing one another better.  I love my job.  I love my clients.  This really is a dream and I am so grateful for the trust they have in me. <3

Outdoor Houston Maternity Photography by Taryn Melgoza

Happy Thursday everyone!  I am so excited to be sharing yet another maternity portrait session (I cannot get enough of these baby bumps, you guys)!   I think for me, I love these Outdoor Houston Maternity Photography sessions so much because of what's to come for these amazing families that I get to see.  New life, new baby, new everything.  It's incredible to watch the growth and love and see it right in front of my very eyes.  Man, I got a little mushy there for a minute, but that's ok.  That's how I roll.  And have I mentioned lately how much I love my job?!

About this Outdoor Houston Maternity Photography Session

We took to my favorite field that's on private property just south of Houston.  Of course, with all these Outdoor Houston Maternity Photography sessions, I just love using natural light.  It creates an ethereal and dreamy feel for these beautiful maternity pictures.  Since this was their first baby, no other siblings were photographed (maybe one day, right?!).  We used a maternity dress that mama brought and also one of my blue gowns from my studio wardrobe.This couple was so excited to meet their first baby, a sweet baby girl.  They wanted to document their pregnancy with a beautiful maternity session that focused on their love and excitement surrounding the arrival of their baby girl.  Mama is absolutely GORGEOUS so it made my job too easy.  We chose a favorite location among my clients located South of Houston on private property.  The location was perfect as it allowed us to focus on the connection of this lovely couple and also gave us some beautiful dreamy evening light.  It was shot in May of 2016 and they just welcomed their baby girl in late June.  I photographed her newborn session and can’t wait to share it!  They booked one of my popular Baby Collections with multiple sessions through baby girl’s first year of life, so I will be seeing them again very soon (and I cannot wait)!

Houston Styled Children Portraits

Happy Wednesday, everyone!  I hope you are all having an amazing week.  This week has already been busy with several newborn sessions, a one year portrait session, and a fun girl's night (or mom's night) out watching the new hit movie: Bad Mom's.  For us mom's, it was such a funny and relatable movie.  I highly recommend!!  We've also been watching the Olympics every night and its been so much fun to see these amazing athletes compete!  Any who, next up on the blog is sweet Caraline and her Houston Styled Children Portraits and documenting her big 6th birthday!!!

About this Houston Photography Session

I have been photographing Caraline since she was 6 months old.  I am beyond honored that I have been able to watch this beautiful girl grow in front of my eyes and document her growth in front of my lens.  She is fun, gorgeous, and sweet as pie!  Her mom is insanely creative and always has the best ideas for her yearly styled sessions.  This year, mom brought along pink flamingo float and the mint colored bicycle with a floral basket to use in her portraits and they were both PERFECT!   Caraline’s portraits are hands down some of my favorite children portraits to date.   If you would like more information on how to book a Houston Styled Children Portraits photography session, be sure to get in touch!  And if you'd like to see the highlights from this perfect session, be sure to keep scrolling below.

Baby Girl Cake Smash Houston Photography, Elle

It seems like I have not blogged in a while.  So welcome, how are you guys doing and I sincerely hope that if you are following along in this journey with me, you are enjoying seeing me grow as an artist.  Up next this week is sweet Elle and her Baby Girl Cake Smash Houston Photography session.  We took to my favorite field to document this sweet time in her life for her cake smash and family session.  We shot this session a couple months ago and we had so much fun. 

How we styled this baby photography session in Houston

Since this was this precious' family's first baby, I really wanted to style this shoot well and intentional.  Because that first year milestone is so imperative and so special, I wanted my clients to feel how special this time really is.  I had the pleasure of photographing this family’s maternity and newborn photos in 2015.  So I was honored when they contacted me to document Elle’s first birthday portraits.  It's always such an honor.  Mom had a lovely themed picked out for Elle’s party.  She brought several of these items to use as props during the session.  We started the session with some family and parent poses.  I believe these are always mandatory to include in a first birthday session.Then the rest of the session focused on sweet Elle!  We incorporated several floral touches and the popular ruffle teepee (a client favorite!)!  We wrapped up the session with a cake smash…Elle wasn’t too sure about the icing but that is common since it IS a sugar overload!  I absolutely love the way this session turned out and I know the parents will treasure these images for years to come.

After blogging all things baby for a while, I figured it would be a great opportunity to blog this Maternity Photography Session Houston!  We took to my handy dandy favorite field here in South Houston and it complimented this session so perfectly.  This was mama and dad's first baby so it was just such a fun session to be a part of.  The newest and truest of loves is when you welcome a new baby into the world.  I.can't.even.  <3Stephanie wore my purple maternity gown from my Houston Studio for this session as well as a more simple and casual look to give it a couple different vibes throughout the session.  We shot this session in the morning at my favorite private field location just South of Houston.  Morning time is not my preferred time for natural light portrait sessions….but I loved the outcome.  Mom brought two amazing outfits and then borrowed my purple gown from my studio collection.  She looked so amazing and could totally tell she felt amazing, too.  She had her hair and make-up professionally done early in the morning a few hours prior to our portrait session, which I always highly recommend (if you need someone, be sure to let me know!  I have been using the same girl for a while now).Professional hair and make-up photographs amazing, holds up well in the intense Houston heat, gives my clients some much needed pampering, and makes my clients feel their best for their session.  For more information on how to book a session, be sure to get in touch or drop me a line.  I would be thrilled to hear from you.  And for highlights from this session, be sure to keep scrolling below.

Maternity Photography Session Houston

Happy Wednesday everyone!  I just love doing Baby Photography Houston sessions.  If you couldn't tell, it's probably my all time favorite thing to shoot.  Although, it seems, that all of my sessions that I do- maternity, baby, sitter, and milestones sesssion... well, even family sessions... it all surrounds my favorite- newborn baby photography.  I don't know if it's the new life, the precious time, the organic nature of a newborn, the purity, or what, but newborn sessions just give me all the feels.  So as I blog this, if you haven't noticed- it sure is giving me all those feels.  ;)  Anywho... enough about me... and more about this perfect session.Maddox was born in July of 2015.  Since shooting his newborn session, I have also done some milestone sessions, so I figured- why not blog where it all began?!  So here we are!  Big sister joined us on this session.  She was so amazing- patient, kind, loving, and obedient.  She understood why we were doing what we needed to do and listened very contently.  She will be such a great influence on him.Mom contacted me about photographing her maternity and newborn sessions last summer.  You can see her gorgeous maternity session here.  Thank goodness we were able to photograph her baby bump before Maddox arrived as he decided to be born one week after her maternity session.  Big sister Grace Anne was such a sweet and loving big sister and I adore their sibling images.   Maddox was born with an amazing head of hair so that was super fun to photograph!

Baby Photography Houston

This week has turned into a great and productive week.  I am so grateful to work and be an entrepreneur.  It definitely has it's pros and cons, but mostly pros!  Up next on my featured sessions is this Baby Girl Houston Photography Studio session!  Meet baby Campbell.  Campbell has a big brother but mom and dad decided to showcase this little love all by herself and brother stayed home.  It made this time with her super special and we had so much fun with her cake smash!  We took to my studio for this session and we used an adorable floral romper from my studio wardrobe, a purple lace romper, and a pink and gold sequin dress from Little Trendsetter.This was one of my loyal clients in which I did their first child's maternity session.  I was so honored and grateful for the chance to reconnect with them and share their amazing news for baby number 2 being on the way.  They wanted me to document both Baby Girl Houston Photography Studio session (both newborn and one year old session).  So it felt right to share her one year old session with you now!!They chose the studio as the location and I planned several sets to work with Campbell's mom's ideas.  We started the session with my favorite….flowers!  Then used the popular purple floral bonnet for a few shots.  These are always some of my client’s favorite images.  Who doesn’t love a baby with a flowers on her head?!?  Mom then had a vision to create a pink and gold themed set similar to Campbell’s first birthday party theme.  She brought in gold balloons and a smash cake to finish off the look.  This was such a fun and unique shoot and I hope you love scrolling through the highlights as much as I loved putting them together.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Memorial weekend with their family!   We had some gloomy days this past week so I'm thankful the sun graced us with its presence on Saturday.  I can't wait to blog that session, but first, this Houston Lifestyle Maternity Session is up next on the blog.  We did two maternity sessions for this sweet mama.  The first one, we took to the outdoors and used a gorgeous cranberry gown coupled with a beautiful outdoor Houston location.  To see highlights from that session make sure you click here.During our time communicating and planning this session, mama mentioned she would love a Houston Lifestyle Maternity Session as well.   I loved her vision for the lifestyle session.  She also wanted to incorporate her two dogs into a few of the images.  These indoor lifestyle maternity images have easily become some of my favorite Houston Lifestyle Maternity Session pictures to date.  It also helps that this client’s home is absolutely stunning.  We finished the session with a few images in baby’s girl’s amazing nursery which was decorated mainly from Restoration Hardware and Pottery Barn.  Swoon!  I just adore this session!We styled her outfit with some adorable lace shorties from Amazon.  She also got a large slouchy sweater that showed off her adorable baby bump.  Be sure to keep scrolling to see more highlights from this session.  And be sure to drop me a line if you're interested in a Houston Lifestyle Maternity Session.

It's Thursday you guys!  We almost made it through another week.  I am so blessed to do what I love and going through these sessions just reminds me day in and day out how grateful I am to my clients.  So if that's you, or if that is going to be you... thank you.  From the bottom of my heart.  I will forever be grateful.  Ok, onward from the mush! :P  Next up on the blog is this Houston Newborn Photography Studio session!  Meet sweet baby Emily.We took to my studio here in Pearland (map below) to document this amazing session and this fleeting time for this family.  We did this session in February and I am so excited to share it.  Earlier this year I had a vision to create a floral wall for my Houston Newborn Photography Studio as I am obsessed with flowers.  It took me a few weeks to determine how to put it all together and I love how it turned out.  I happened to finish it the night before Emily’s newborn session.  I just had to use it when she came to visit my studio for her newborn session.  Emily is the first for this couple and is so incredibly loved.  We used the floral wall, a lovely blanket from Modern Burlap with a scripture, and even incorporated some antlers for one shot (both mom and dad love hunting as a hobby).To see more from this classic and timeless Houston Newborn Photography Studio session, be sure to scroll below.  As always, if you'd like to chat more about sessions with me, drop me a line.  I would love to hear from you! <3

Up next on the blog is sweet Grady!  I was so thrilled when Grady's parents decided to book me as their Baby Boy Photographer Houston.  They decided to go with my most popular baby planner packages.  These packages are so super fun for me because I get to watch these adorable babies (and families) grow.  Being that Grady was the first child, it always makes each session really important and memorable.We took to my Baby Boy Photographer Houston studio to document this sitter session.  I provide wardrobe for my clients to choose from (all the from maternity gowns up to children's options).  For most of Grady's session, we used the wardrobe from my studio collection.  I love to provide clothing for my clients because I know the colors that will photograph nicely, makes for a cohesive collection throughout the year, and just really helps to relieve stress on the parents...and it's just one less thing to worry about for their session!  All we need is the sweet baby and perhaps some food/milk to keep baby happy and I have the rest covered! :)  However, if my clients have a certain look or outfit in mind, they are always encouraged to bring that as well!Grady was super smiley and had rolls for days (the cutest kind).  We had fun playing dress up.  Mom also brought in a baseball cap for Grady to wear and I loved how those turned out.  It just really made this session personal, yet beautiful.  I always encourage a few naked baby photos in my milestone sessions as well.  It's always good to document their rolls at this age because they are adorable!  We all know those sweet baby rolls don’t last forever (until they come back into adulthood ;) ).If you loved the highlights from this session, be sure to drop me a line in the comments!

Chugging along this week and decided to post this sweet Houston Family Photography Studio session this morning.  Meet the Haywoods! Marissa and I met while we were both working at BP years ago and we have kept in touch through Facebook.  As life progresses, we both became moms and our families have expanded.  It had been several years since we have seen each other.  I was so excited when she contacted me to photograph her family early this year.  She wanted to document her youngest son’s fist birthday as well as capture their family at their current stage in life with her two adorable and handsome little guys!  Because I love to document families having fun and being themselves, these are some of my favorite kind of pictures to take.  We were even able to include her grandfather in some of these shots.  Pictures are true treasures and I know that her and her family will treasure these images for many years to come.We styled this session with earthy navy blues, grays and organic colors that photograph really nicely.  We used our natural light location for this Houston Family Photography Studio session and I just loved the way these turned out.If you'd like to book your very own session with me, please get in touch!  I would love to hear from you.  And for more information on each type of session, drop me a line.  I'd love to chat!

I hope everyone's week is going well.  I am enjoying going through these sessions from last year.  It really humbles me to know that all these families, new mommy's and daddy's trust me to document the most precious times in their lives.  I am so grateful!  This particular session was from last April.  This was Melissa and Rod's first baby and we decided to go with a natural setting coupled with creams and navy blues.  These colors paired so well together and I just loved how this Maternity Photographer Houston session turned out.This couple chose to keep the gender a surprise until the baby was born.  By doing this, it just keeps a level of excitement there and makes that 'labor' day so much more intense.  Since this session was over a year ago, I am not 'spilling the beans' by saying that they had a baby GIRL!We shot this session in my favorite field with large oak trees and Spanish moss.  This has become a regularly requested location for my clients as it is beautiful and majestic.  I love that I can shoot there many times and each session looks a little different than the last.  This couple was super sweet and in love.  It was an honor to photograph them during this exciting time in their lives!Below are highlights from this gorgeous maternity session!

I hope everyone had a great weekend!!  I know I did and I was so thankful that the rain was not as bad as the weather man predicted.  I shot this Newborn Photographer Houston Tx studio session back in April of last year.  Sweet Grady was mom and dad's first addition to their precious family.  Grady's parents were just so in love and had some wonderful ideas to incorporate into this session as well.  I just loved the sweet details from this session.We used a variety of props from my Newborn Photographer Houston Tx studio.  Those props included crates, buckets, and Dr. Seuss books.  Mom brought some antlers because they loved rustic tones and fun colors.  With those themes in mind, I did love the extra touch that these antlers gave to the session.  Dad also brought his snowboard that we incorporated into it.  I loved how personal this session was to them while tying my own personal Newborn Photographer Houston Tx style into it.  A true collaboration with mama and daddy and their super awesome photographer ;) !Grady decided to wake up at the end of his session to hang out with us…and we didn’t mind!  A happy and awake baby is always a treat to photograph!  Parents appreciate having some shots with baby’s eyes open.  If you would love to see highlights from this adorable session, be sure to keep scrolling.  And if you'd like to book a session, be sure to get in touch, as I'd love to have you!
