I met Sara when she was 16.  When we moved to Texas, J and I needed a date night, so we interviewed this bubbly, confident teenager whose cheerful smile and warm heart instantly won me over.  Needless to say, we left the kids with her as often as her schedule and our budget allowed:). I’ve […]

You just never know what the weather will be like in Texas. When I met Courtney and Cody for their session, it was a particularly cold (and windy) day. The sky was overcast, but there is no denying:  these two brought the heat! This Friday, they’ll be getting married at BRIK in Fort Worth, TX. […]

We have a daily allowance of minutes to […]

Tomorrow, forecast calls for Fall temps, and with it, the official goodbye to Summer.  Summers linger longer here in Texas, but every season must come to a close.  This Summer was especially precious, as our family took our first ever family vacation completely by ourselves.

I take photographs, I’m not in them. That used to be my truth. Passionate about capturing moments, freezing beauty all around me, I have collected thousands of memories.
