little miss lauren was one of the first little girls i photographed in houston a few years ago.

lauren was 18 months old back when I first saw her, and now she’s an adorable 3 year old!

AND- little miss lauren is a BIG sister to little brother luke.

HOW SWEET!

little mr. luke was a sweet 2 weeks old.

total milk coma.

i’m holding my reign as: mrs. *most* kids like me. these two seemed to approve.

houston texas// family session - newborn session

little lauren was one of the first kiddos i got to shoot here in houston only a few years ago during a babywearing session. i’d like to say she was one of the first posts on my old old old blog. her eye’s are still super bright blue and she’s just an adorable big sister. little luke kept me on my toes at first, but then settled into some amazing newborn sleep and i got to click away. gotta love a session with incredibly cute kids!

 recognize this family?

catherine + paula

ava picked flowers the ENTIRE session. i loved it!

a year later- ava is just SO sweet.

family session // houston, texas

perhaps you remember this darling family when they visited the blog last year. if not, refresh yourself by CLICKING HERE.  

back in april, catherine emailed me to make sure they were “in” for the holiday season. thrilled to have returning clients, and to also see little ava a year later i was for sure “in”. catherine and paula (aka: mom-mom and mom) told ava if she was a good girl she could get ANYTHING she wanted at target. what does a little gal do with such a proposal? she wanted 1 lunchable. how adorable is that?!? needless to say, ava earned her lunchable big time.perhaps a multi-pack she was THAT great.

ladies, i loved photographing you all for a 2nd time. we had a blast and i LOVE the images we got from this session!

xoxo

kelly, you’re an inch away from making a wish. ((I LOVE THIS NECKLACE))

little sullivan was last seen on this blog as a newborn– now he’s an adorable 6 months old!

and this is one of my new FAVORITES!!

i love the look a baby gives their older sibling.

sullivan is quite the serious fellow.

and harrison is just getting handsomer every time i see him.

even though it was little brother’s “6-month” session - i’m glad these two came for the ride.

 baby’s 6 month / family session -  houston, texas

WOW. what a journey it’s been with this family. words can’t express how thankful i am to photograph this family for the FOURTH time! going back into time, (on a blog long long ago ) i had the honor of meeting these guys for a family session back before little brother. (and if you clicked that last link… before you say it, yes, my work has come a loooong way on this photo journey of mine!)  kelly then contacted me not too long after to announce she was pregnant and couldn’t wait for a maternity session. LUCKY ME RIGHT?!? and if you missed it– click HERE because kelly was flippin’ GORGEOUS pregnant!  so once sullivan arrived i got to take his sleepy newborn photos. It’s just truly amazing to see him as a happy 6 month, crawling baby as well as see harrison turn into an adorable little boy. six months is going to fly by again- and you get to see sullivan as a 1 year old– so you’ll just have to stay tuned.

again, thank you-thank you-thank you, for letting me in your families life.

and ps. to my husband. i want that necklace with our little girlies on it. christmas is coming up!
