Galveston, TX Pleasure Pier Maternity: Davanie + Billy

You haven’t SEEN stunning until you’ve seen Davanie & Billy’s maternity session. This Galveston photo session was so dreamy, with the natural light setting just right through the pillars of the pier, and Davanie & Billie were absolutely glowing.

Galveston, TX Pleasure Pier Maternity: Davanie + Billy

You haven’t SEEN stunning until you’ve seen Davanie & Billy’s Galveston maternity session, and I can’t believe we are so behind is sharing it!

To commemorate their love for the ocean and their time in the Houston and Galveston area before a big move, they decided to do their maternity photos at the Galveston seawall, right by Pleasure Pier (one of our favorite spots). This Galveston photo session was so dreamy, with the natural light setting just right through the pillars of the pier, and Davanie & Billie were absolutely glowing.

Webster, TX Family Session: Garcia Family

Everyone loves a good family session around Christmastime, including us! The Garcia family was gorgeous and so easy to work with- even with 5 kiddos!

Challenger Seven Park, a personal favorite, was a perfect backdrop for their session and never disappoints! The day was perfect, the smiles were golden, and the rest is history. Check out their session!

Urban Downtown Houston Engagements: Kassie + Ryan

Kassie & Ryan were sooo cuteee, y’all!

We chose downtown Houston as the location for their portraits- Kassie wanted something a little city-feeling, and as we explored, we found some great spots along the way! We ended the session on top of a garage rooftop at sunset to put the icing on the cake of their killer urban session. Kassie’s outfit was perfect for upcoming NYE, and we can’t wait to celebrate their wedding at The Springs- Wallisville later this year!

Webster Maternity Session: Zarahi + Silver

Little Julieta has arrived, but we are still ooing and ahhing over Zarahi’s maternity session! <3<3<3

Little Julieta has arrived, but we are still ooing and ahhing over Zarahi’s maternity session! <3<3<3

Zarahi and Silver wanted nature-filled photos, and that’s what we gave them in this Webster, TX maternity session. (Who would have thought that such beautiful nature could be found in the suburbs of Houston?)

This session was extra special, because it was a much anticipated time for this couple. In 2018 we had the pleasure of photographing announcement photos, but were later told of the heart wrenching news that Zarahi had lost her precious little one early on in her pregnancy. To say that Zarahi and Silver were excited to find that they were being promised a little baby just a few months later would be an understatement. Although we never shared their first announcement photos, we are OVERJOYED to be able to share this lovely maternity session, and to announce that Julieta is a happy, healthy little girl (that even played Jesus in this year’s Christmas production!).

Do you or does someone you know need maternity photos? Let us know! We’d love to be part of your beautiful memories. :)

Galveston Pleasure Pier Maternity Session: Heather + Justin

We LOVE Galveston, so when Heather said that she wanted a beachy maternity session, we were 100% here for it!

Heather wanted some photos under the pier, and some on the jetty, so that’s exactly what we made happen for her, and boy am I glad that we did. The day was perfect, the colors were just so vibrant beautiful, and if you didn’t know Galveston, you wouldn’t even be able to tell- I’d think Cali if I didn’t already know better!

Heather chose a dusty rose colored dress for herself and a teal shirt for Justin, and I don’t know if she could have made a better choice. The colors truly complimented each other and the background, and helped to add a little bit of color pop to each photo.

Heather, you truly looked like an absolute angel, and we can’t wait to meet your little girl next month!

Santa Fe, TX Maternity: Kristina + Greg

When Kristina first reached out about a maternity session, she mentioned bringing baby goats- Wait, what?! How cool, yes please! I could already tell that Kristina & Greg were going to be a ton of fun!

Although we didn’t end up with the baby goats, lol, we had a blast with this awesome couple, and can tell that they’re going to be cool parents. Not only do they breed goats at their farm, but they incorporated Jimmy Fallon books into their session, which is pretty great in itself!

Kristina & Greg, the love that you guys show for each other is just going to be multiplied for baby Evelyn, so Josh and I know that she will be abundantly loved! Can’t wait to see baby E!
