pink pink pink.

This sweet pink bundle is baby sam's cousin :) And she was as sweet and SLEEPY as could be. But I got those gorgeous baby blues in too!!

And seriously I have the best clients - if I have to leave my family on Sunday mornings for sessions, I really couldn't pick more fabulous families to go play with. Thanks for inviting me into your amazing home!!

And you might recognize this sweet mommy too - she is a pediatrician with Humble Peds!!

some sweet daddy & mommy lovin.

And check out handsome big brother!! He turned 3 the day I was there!!

ENJOY!!

mr serious.

This little guy and his parents were the nicest people ever! So enjoyed a gorgeous morning in Market Street with them - and finding out that we have like 50 mutual friends - some more good Aggies too.

He was all about the seriousness and trying to figure out who the crazy lady behind the big camera was.....

and I love it when I can see me in their eyes - this next shot is a zoomed in shot of the picture on the right :)

and some of mr smiley...

ENJOY!!

sweet miss.

Little 'S' kept me super busy this Saturday morning in Hermann Park. It was a gorgeous day so it was packed and the sun was bright!! We had fun running around and I know mom and dad will LOVE these shots.

They are really such a great family - and some Aggies too!! And mommy is a pediatrician in Houston. Check out the ad below her pics - yes that's my baby boy with his baby blues!! Check her out - she is the sweetest gal - you will definitely feel like you are a friend when you see her!! She has lots of new and fun ideas coming to her practice too!!

 

 

ENJOY!

baby sam.

I am going to have to let these AMAZING pictures do the talking of how incredibly adorable this little guy and his parents are. I am laid up in bed trying to crank out these sessions.

I have a double ear infection and both eardrums ruptured from my flight home from Denver Monday night - so I am in PAIN. And in need of a nap now....

 

 

ENJOY!  

adding some blue.

Such a fabulous family! The pictures say it all!!

This session of beautiful blue colors in their outfits was taken 5 days before they found out that little baby in mommy's belly is a BOY!!

check out a new spot we tried - Rice University - with all the gorgeous oaks and architecture - daddy is an alum :)

ENJOY!!!

And have a great spring break...if you don't hear from me for a week...it's because I am out in the snow in Colorado :)

Hoping to get one more newborn post out before I leave.
 

love all the meaning.

ok - is it possible?? I adore this family more and more after every session...I think we are on session 7 now :) And it just keeps getting better. Baby Hudson was a dream for his session - he kept his eyes open for some good eye contact, then closed them and fell off to dreamland so we could play :)

I just LOVE looking through their session - we have a million great shots but what I love most are all of the things we did to make their pictures even more special to them!!!  keep scrolling down to see..

before...

and after...

 

mom and dad saw this next shot on Tara Whitney's site - she is fabulous - I want her to take my family pics - she takes tons of famous photogs pics - 2 of which have mentored ME - Patti Schmidt and Audrey Woulard :) And the VIDEOS on her site.... check them out - they are to die for!! Got to do this!! But back to this shot - it turned out PERFECT - I LOVE it!!! And mom wants to do some grow with me shots like this each session so look for more later - maybe 6 months or so :) Their house is amazing - they just moved in last Fall - so I was super excited to come and have my fun around their house. 

 

tried to cover his hiney with the hat, but he moved, but it turned out to be a great shot - cute hiney and all - he covered up the important stuff! and look closely at the shot on the right...the framed picture at the top of this picture was taken at their old house in front of their bookshelf of big brother when he was 4 weeks old - and same blanket too.

and this next one is AMAZING!! Ok - so we have all seen how the hats and bowls are so very popular for newborn shots. I like the look, but LOVE when it is their own hat that grandma knitted (we have one of those for this guy too, well his great-grandma knitted it) and then this bowl....it has been passed down in mommy's family and was actually used as a dough bowl by his great-great grandmother so many years ago and now here he is as a fresh newborn laying in all that history!! oh and on his dining table at the house he will grow up in!!

and one more to see mom's great decorating taste!

some brotherly lovin!!

some sweet momma time!

and a close up to soak up all of baby Hudson's preciousness!

 

and my favorite shot of big brother hanging out in his room! 

 

Enjoy!!
