It’s interesting to me how quickly I can connect with some clients.  Like we’ve known each other for ages. Familiar, friends.  Sweet moments. Laughter.  Leeches. Yes, leeches.  But I’ll get to that. I worked with David and Ashley for the first time last Fall.  This beautiful blended family was 4… now becoming 5. Another son… […]

Family Beach Session | South Padre Island | June 2015

Beach, Beach Wedding, Children, Couples, Destination Wedding, Families, Family Lifestyle, Fort Worth, Fort Worth Lifestyle Photography, Looks LIke Film, natural light, outdoor photography, Portraits, South Padre Island, Women's photography

Though I’ve photographed these wonderful people several times, this time was different. Familiarity and comfort, combined with a picturesque backdrop, led to my ideal style of family photography. Minimal staging.  Lots of exploring.  Children playing. No perfected pose.  Wind in hair.  Genuine interaction. These are real moments.  Nothing contrived here.  They walk, I watched… and […]

This is my third year photographing The Proctor Family.  Every time, it is a privilege. Just as their girls have grown and changed, so have I as an artist. As I hone my craft, there are elements of risk required to grow. But you never know how it will be received. Will your clients appreciate […]

Fort Worth Lifestyle Session | Hine Family | Fall 2014

Beach, Children, Couples, Families, Family Lifestyle, Fort Worth, Fort Worth Lifestyle Photography, Lifestyle, natural light, Portraits, TX

The more I photograph people, the more I appreciate individuality. The uniqueness of each person, each family.  How they relate and interact… and the story they have to tell. I started off taking pictures of my own family, because I found the smallest nuances fascinating.  I think most parents feel that way about their little […]

Denton Family and Lifestyle Photography | Fisher Family | July 2014

Children, Families, Fort Worth, natural light, Newborn Photography, outdoor photography, Portraits

I love when people allow me to photograph them as they truly are.  Unposed, relaxed and natural in their environment.  Real, true images. This is one of those families. They have extended the opportunity to photograph them several times now.  Each time, more special than the last. I have watched them grow.  4.  Then, photographed […]
