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.

Oh man, have I expressed my joy for sitter sessions?  If not, I want to go ahead and take the time to express it now: I LOVE SITTER SESSIONS! :)  Having this little one's parents hire me to be their Baby Boy Houston Photographer, I was just so thrilled to be a part of their story.  I also loved how baby sister hung out behind the camera to get those genuine smiles that I just love.  I love when siblings come to help because it gives them a chance to feel like they are a part of this big picture while being the "grown up one."We stuck to Cora & Violet's adorable hoodie rompers, warm wood tones, and my white wood backdrop.  I loved this session because since Maddox is a baby planner client, I had the pleasure of photographing his mom’s maternity session, and his newborn session.  So watching him grow is a true joy for this year.  They came back to visit me at the studio for his sitting milestone session and we had so much fun dressing him in my studio wardrobe clothing and getting him to smile!  I also incorporated one of the props from his newborn session to show how much he had grown.  We also used a wood bowl, my log bed that I adore, a favorite blue bear stuffed animal from his very own nursery, and of course, one of Luneberry's sky blue flokatis.Here are the highlights from this adorable session!

Baby Boy Houston Photographer

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

Hey Everyone!  I hope your weekend went well and you had a great July 4th holiday with your family celebrating this amazing country!  Besides the intense heat, summer has always been one of my favorite season.  We have been enjoying tons of water activities outside and I just love seeing my kiddo's smiles are just stretched from ear to ear!  We have all loved the quality time we have been spending together as a family during these warm summer months.  Mush-y feelings today, but I love it.  It's who I am and maybe that's why I love my job and owning my very own Houston Tx Newborn Photography Studio.  Up next on the blog is sweet baby Milo.This precious family was referred to me by an existing client of mine.  It really humbles me when my clients-turned-friends loved their experience with me that they decide to share it with their family and friends.  This is this sweet couple’s first baby.  And boy, is he loved!  This was one of my first sessions to use my new barn wood.  I just love the warmth and feel it gives to the images.  Mom and dad are also so gorgeous and super photogenic, so they really made my job as easy as it can get.We took to neutral colors- grays, warm wood tones, navy blue accents.  Basically- earthy tones that compliment baby boys so incredibly well.  Timeless. Classic.  Perfect.  Be sure to keep scrolling below for the highlights <3

Houston Tx Newborn Photography Studio

Summer is upon us, folks! <3  Summertime for me marks so many fun moments and I just love getting to enjoy it with my babies.  Speaking of babies, I decided to share a sweet baby girl Houston Tx Newborn Photography Studio session with you today!We took to my Houston newborn studio to do this session (where I do all of my sessions).  Let me set this up for you- mama and baby arrive, I find out that they follow the newborn prep to a tee, it's warm and cozy in the studio for baby, a little hot for me and mama and dad (haha), and it just all feels right.  This was one of those sessions where everything goes exactly as planned.  A sleepy baby girl, a cooperative big brother, easy posing, and a gorgeous family.  A newborn photographer's dream come true! <3I absolutely loved this entire session and will definitely remember it as one of my favorites from early this year.   This family contacted me as a referral from another photographer friend in the area who happened to be booked.  I love it when the local photography community works together to support each other!   It also works out that this family happens to live just a few minutes away from my former home studio so it was super convenient for them but also nice to make a new mommy friend in my area.  For her session, I made sure to use a variety of colors and props keeping it all girly and sweet.

Houston Tx Newborn Photography Studio

Hope everyone is having a wonderful start their weekends!  I am so thankful that Houston got some sun this week and we got through the rain and flooding!  I decided to share this super sunny Outdoor Houston Maternity Photographer session in lieu of this beautiful weather.We took to my favorite field here in Houston and when I started to talk with Danielle and her family about what they envisioned for their Outdoor Houston Maternity Photographer session, she wanted to do a maternity session and include family portraits.  Grace Ann (big sister) was also a focus in this session, and I just loved her.  We originally got rained out the first time we scheduled this session, so we had to reschedule it.  I definitely think we made the right decision in doing so, because these maternity pictures were just so dreamy!  The light gave this session an ethereal and dreamy look to them, which is what I strive for in all of my portraits.  Life with a newborn is so beautiful and the anticipation of meeting them for the first time really does feel dreamy and too good to be true.  Moments that you never want to forget.Danielle wore pregnancy so beautifully and big sister was at the perfect age to love on mama's sweet baby bump.  And at the end of this session, we were blessed with a rainbow just overhead. Of course I had to photograph it!  Over the course of baby’s first year, I had to honor of photographing his newborn, sitting, and one year sessions and it was such a joy to watch him grow!  I can’t wait to share his newborn session with you soon!

Outdoor Houston Maternity Photographer

Houston Pearland Newborn Studio

Happy Tuesday friends!  What better way to start your day than with this Houston Pearland Newborn Studio session?

Meet newborn baby Jackson!  All the heart eyes, guys!  Being that these were first time parents to this newborn baby boy, we decided to stick with neutrals to style his session.  It was a perfect, timeless, and classic touch to this adorable session.  This included many muted grays, blues, and some touches of tan and browns as well.  This was my very first session using my new barn wood flooring and I absolutely love the texture and warmth is adds to my newborn sessions.

This sweet mama is also a huge fan of Harry Potter, so she brought along her Harry Potter wand, a “Muggle Born” hat, and all of the books from the series to incorporate into a Harry Potter themed shot.   I also purchased the little white stuffed owl for the finishing touches on this themed set.  I just love adding these personal touches to a newborn baby session because it really creates an environment where mama and dad.  It just seems so orchestrated to who they are, and I strive to document that in all of my sessions.  We also used my log bed and the brown bear lovie to create a snuggl-y and sweet boy newborn session that these parents will cherish for a lifetime.

As a side note- these client’s purchased an custom accordion mini album from their ordering appointment as a gift to themselves and to each set of grandparents.  These accordion mini albums have quickly become one of my client’s favorite fine art products.  It’s the perfect little brag book to carry around and show off to family and friends!

Houston Newborn Studio Session

Happy Friday, everyone!  Here I am, still chugging along with blogs posts from 2015! If you have stayed up to date on my blog, I am grateful and thankful for you!  The next Houston Newborn Studio Session I decided was sweet Elle's.  She had the chubbiest cheeks that ever was and I just loved her so much.  I am so grateful to get to document these new lives.  Who knows- maybe one of them will be the next president, or the next Albert Einstein.  It's just so crazy to think how quickly time goes by and how fast these sweet babies grow.  I just sometimes sit back and think how awesome of a job I have.I first met this family when I had the honor of documenting their maternity session.  You can see that super dreamy and beautiful session here.  Elle's parents are some of the most beautiful and sweet people, so of course their baby girl is just as beautiful!  I wanted her Houston Newborn Studio Session to reflect just how gorgeous she is so I chose to use various girl colors including: mint, purple, rose pink and floral accents. This was one of the first newborn sessions that I ever incorporated flowers into and it quickly turned into an obsession for me!   Baby girls and flowers sure do belong together, in my honest but usually right opinion!  ;)Elle had an amazing full hear of black hair so choosing the perfect headband’s for her hair was so fun.  We finished the session with parents and newborn photos and I am so in love with how they turned out. Their love is just so palpable and it truly shows in their portraits!

Houston Newborn Studio Session

Houston Maternity Session

I hope that everyone's week is going well and I am so happy to get back to blogging.  I got a little behind to spend time with my babies and sweet husband over the weekend, but I wouldn't let it get me TOO far behind.  I understand how important it is for clients to not only see my newborn work, but also my Houston Maternity Session previews!  :)  I also strive to keep my content up to date and fresh, so that my clients can witness my growth.  It's super special to be able to grow as an artist and entrepreneur, and I am just lucky to be able to document all that beautiful growth!  Now, onto this awesome natural light Houston session!Meet Shayla and that glorious baby bump of hers.  Such a sweet and beautiful mama.  Motherhood is amazing, and she sure does wear it well.  We also made the focal point of this session about the big brother twins.  We had so much fun, but I sure had my work cut out for me with twin boys.  The best kid of work, that is! <3  It can be hard to expect a two year old to follow instructions, so its best to just go with the flow and let them have fun!  The results will mean so much more when you capture REAL life and let them be themselves.  It's one of my favorite things about documenting all these beautiful Houston Maternity Sessions, and I find that those are the images I cherish most.I have known this family for several years.  I had the honor of first working with them for their first maternity session when mom & dad were expecting twin boys!  I also photographed their newborn session and that was a huge milestone for me as it was my very first twin newborn session.  I am thankful they reached out to me to document their pregnancy and newborn session with baby #3…a sweet and gorgeous baby GIRL!We did this session last May and mom really stressed that she wanted to avoid the Houston heat.  My good photographer friend Catherine Lubbat has an awesome studio location in downtown Houston, and she was gracious enough to let us use this as our location for their indoor maternity session.  The clean white walls, stained concrete, and sheer window coverings create for a dreamy yet clean palate for sessions in this location.   And I absolutely LOVE the results!

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!

Houston Family Photography Studio

I hope everyone had a great weekend and got to snuggle their babies, relaxed, or whatever makes your heart happy.  This morning I am blogging this Baby Photography Studio Houston session!  Sweet Piper was 4 months old when she came to see me and just full of sweetness.  We took to my Baby Photography Studio Houston to do her session and I just loved every second of it.This tummy time session was from one of my baby planner sessions, so I got to watch this little thing grow from being in her mommy's belly all the way up to this session from January.  We used a bunch of floral touches, creams and pinks to make this Baby Photography Studio Houston extra girly and extra perfect.I have known this family for several years as I had the honor of photographing their first baby (big brother) a few years ago. Now I am so excited to photographing baby sister for several Baby Photography Studio Houston sessions throughout her first year. We did her tummy time session in the studio earlier this year!  She loved sticking out her tongue. At the end of the session, she had a little bottle and took a short nap so we posed her in my vintage pram.  We were able to get some of the sweetest sleepy baby images of her. I can’t wait to see her again for her sitting session in a few weeks!

Baby Photography Studio Houston

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!

Newborn Photographer Houston Tx

Hope everyone had a great weekend!!  I was very thankful for some sun this weekend after the torrential downpours last week.  Hopefully the weather men will be wrong and the weather will spare us Houstonians a few days of this crazy rain this week.  But to sprinkle sunshine on this gloomy day, meet Owen, who came to visit this baby photographer houston tx.Owen was such a sweet little guy and was super special because he is the first baby boy for this family.  His parents really wanted to incorporate muted boy colors to keep his session timeless and gender appropriate.  Being a baby photographer houston tx, this of course, was all fine by me.His parents are also huge Houston Texans fans, so they brought a blanket with the Texan's logo on it.  We also incorporated his big sister in some of the shots, and she was just as dreamy as this sweet baby boy.  It always makes a baby photographer houston tx's job easy when siblings want to be involved and are so well behaved.Be sure to keep scrolling to see highlights from this amazing and cute session.  And if you're in the market for a baby photographer houston tx, I am your gal!  I would love to meet you so get in touch!!!
