it was recently wohs homecoming and i was in charge of taking the pics of my younger brother and his girlfriend. we had an engagement shoot previously scheduled so they were good sports and willing to meet at 3:00pm in the heat of the day so that they could get some pics. i think they turned out cute but i am a little biased.
i love their color coordination:

aren’t they cute:

we have been really busy lately! we have several shoots waiting to be blogged so be on the lookout in the next few days. we are also looking forward to shooting sandee and patrick’s wedding this week and to posting our favorites from the wedding!

have a great rest of the week!

I know its been a while since we’ve posted, so to make up for it, we have a loooooong post here. You might remember these two cuties from a few months back when we took their newborn pics. Well, Reyd and Avery are now 6 months old, so their mommies wanted updated pics. And these babies are just soooooo adorable, so we were more than happy to oblige :). And I think its so neat how the mommies (they’re sister-in-laws) both had babies so close to each other.

First up, Reyd….

This little boy was just sooooo animated. Seriously, he made the funniest faces! And isn’t he going to be a heart breaker when he gets older ?

I love this picture with him and his baseball and bat… doesn’t it look like he’s ready to go play. Such a serious face (and I don’t condone tobacco products in ANY way, but it looks like he has a big wad of dip in his cheek too, and it just cracks me up):

One of the whole family:

Such a daddy’s boy. He just laughed and laughed when Stephen would blow on his belly:

Two of my favorites:

But of course you can tell that he just adores his mommy too:

And here’s little Avery…she had the biggest smile and laugh I think I’ve ever seen:

I just love the way she sticks her tongue out when she smiles:

precious little baby feet:

And here is one of them two together. I always wonder what babies say to each other…

We have another shoot today, so be on the look out for those pics soon.
Have a good Saturday and GEAUX TIGERS

Let me preface this post by explaining that we took these pics in about ten minutes due to the massive thunderstorm that we barely missed by a matter of seconds (literally…it started pouring on us the second we got back in the vehicle). So considering the circumstances, I think they turned out nice.

I love the expressions in this below picture:

the beautiful girls Bria and Addy:

This is when we were leaving. Check out that sky in the background!

Mama’s little boy:

Or maybe Daddy’s little boy?

I seriously love, love, love this picture .

All-in-all, we had a great time on our trip to Destin, FL. Thank you Darla and Michael for taking us along on y’all’s family vacation and letting us stalk you with our cameras .

So we made it back from Destin, FL safe and sound and needing a vacation from our vacation . We had a great time at the beach and just wanted to share a few pics from the trip. We also took some family beach photos that we will post in the next few days once we go through them all. Most of these photos were taken with the simple point-and-shoot camera and not our professional cameras, so that’s why the quality isn’t the best on some of them. But anyways, here we go:

Check out this little doll, Dawson. He was soooo sweet and good on the trip. He would just smile at anything. Here we are at Fudpuckers:

But he wasn’t too happy the first day on the beach. he was just so tired and sleepy and hot (weren’t we all though ). Look at this poor little man. Even not smiling, though, he is such a cutie:

and let’s not forget his adorable big sisters Addy and Bria:

Other than hanging out at the beach and pool, we also went to The Track family fun center. The girls loved the go-carts. Check out Bria’s face in the below picture….sheer joy.

and here’s me and miranda in the arcade:

And finally, i tried out surfing again. As you may remember, I tried surfing while in Hawaii last summer and failed  MISERABLY…you can read about it here

Luckily, I fared much better in the significantly calmer and smaller waves of the Gulf. I even rode a few waves the first day; but the second day the waves were larger and I was on a more difficult board, so I wasn’t so great the 2nd day (and I was on my own without an instructor). 

Me right before my lesson the first day:

check me out riding those waves !

That’s all for now, be checking in later for those family beach pics. 

thanks!

To my good friends Serena and Chris on their new blessing - baby Hadassah. Isn’t she beautiful!

Y’all may remember the maternity pics that we took of Serena a while back, you can view them here.

We’ll be heading over to their house to take newborn pics in the next few days, but I couldn’t resist posting these few hospital pics.

Hadassah looks just like her mom:

And one with the proud new Daddy:

check back soon for more!

- heather

first of all, we haven’t forgotten about the other wedding pics from a few weeks ago. we are still editing away and we’ll post some more when we get them all done. be patient
but for now, a little bit about serena and chris… We took some pics of them before christmas for christmas cards; but unfortunately, it was raining. but this time, the weather was perfect for us! serena is expecting a sweet little girl in a couple of months, so these are her maternity pics. they are just a beautiful couple, don’t ya think? i can’t wait to shoot the baby when she arrives!

cute lil’ belly:

and even being about 7 months pregnant, she can still manage to walk in these shoes. i mean, seriously, there’s no way i could EVER manage to walk in these, especially being in my 3rd trimester of pregnancy! kudos to you serena

being ever so fabulous:

ok, time to get back to watching american idol and editing pics. (i know…i embarrassingly admit that i’m addicted to that show)

-heather

we had some 4×6 postcard-like business cards made and we absolutely LOVE them. the quality is great with the glossy finish and thick, postcard paper. the pictures are on the front, and our contact info on the back.

so whatcha think?

i’ve been going through some pictures i took over the holidays and thought i would post a couple. i took so many pictures over thanksgiving and christmas and they’ve just been sitting on my memory card. these are my only two cousins, noah and emily.

noah is having a birthday party this weekend so we will be shooting a couple of pics out in the sticks next weekend. he is one of the most loving little 5 year olds i know!

here is one of noah from christmas:

and here’s one of emily that i took way back at thanksgiving:

i hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. mine certainly went by fast, so i am glad to get tomorrow off!

well… now that the holiday rush is over, i thought we should get caught up on a few shoots from the end of 07 that we never had time to post. amy called and she and her family needed some last minute Christmas pictures so we shot just a few.    

hope you enjoy! check back within the next few days for a recent newborn shoot.
