Seth + Erica • Engagement Session • Houston • POST I

This is a repost of a previous session that I sadly had to take down a while back.  Now I am able to show these images again & with a few tweaks here and there.  We ventured out to the Wortham Falls, next to the Wortham Theater for these pictures.  I love these waters.

Brandi • Portrait Session • Warehouse District

LOOOOVED this photo shoot!  I wanted to experiment with a new location and time and model, so Brandi was a doll and helped me out.  She was so awesome and patient with me.  We took these back in November when I was 7 months pregnant... I laugh now because Brandi had to help me up from the ground several times.  Thanks girl!

There are two versions of the following image. First one has a warm yellowish tone & the second one is in a cool tone.  I love both, but the first fits my mood for night time fine art photography. 

The last image is one of my favorites.  I played around with textures & cannot decide which looks best, therefore I am posting the variations that I came up with & letting you tell me which one is to your liking. The first is just color enhanced, no textures. The second is color muted, no textures.

The next set of images are black & white with textures, except the first one is just classic b&w.  You can't go wrong with the classic look.

Once again you decide which is your favorite.... leave me a comment to let me know your opinion.

Emily • Baby Portrait • Clear Lake

My good friends asked me to take pictures of their 3 month old and I could not refuse.  Baby Emily is so adorable.  She was born just a few weeks before my little one.  

Bumble Bee Baby Shower

My sister-in-law had her baby shower the other day and I just loved the theme.  She had Gepedo baby dolls dressed as bumble bees and the colors throughout the room were yellow and lilic.  It was a fresh and modern style, which goes well for a June shower.  And the cup cakes were AMAZING.  My SIL is due at the end of July.  Summer babies are so much fun.  We can't wait to see the little bumble bee baby next month.
