**“The Codashians”, as we call them.**
**“The Codashians”, as we call them.**
These two sweet & sassy sisters contacted us so that they could surprise their parents with canvas prints for Christmas from their secret “sister session”. We have watched Meaghan and Morgan grow as we have worked with the church youth group, and boy are they a BLAST to work with!
Not only are they beautiful, but they can laugh on command! (#winning) If you don’t know these two, you should get to know them- they will brighten up your day every time.

Our 2nd Anniversary!
April 10, 2018 marked our second year as husband and wife! Our celebration included a stay at the immaculate Hotel Alessandra, a movie date, massages and relaxation time at Fiori Day Spa, being chauffeured in a Maserati (SO FREAKING COOL) to dinner at the impeccable Potente Restaurant in downtown Houston, brunch at Bosscat Kitchen & Libations, which is now one of our favorite brunch spots, and ultimately, just enjoying each other's company. :) Also, we couldn't celebrate a milestone without some pictures, so in true Josh & Mikala fashion, we set up our tripod for some fancy selfies. ;)

Josh said it so well in his Facebook post when he said, "We're new to the married club and know it's only been two years, but we're here to stay. Here's to many more."
^^^AWWWW, I LOVE YOU BABE!^^^
We are proud of how far we've come in our marriage, and are excited to see where God takes us in the future, and can't wait to share highlights of our life with you! Before you look at our adorable (am I biased?) photos, I'll leave you with this scripture that we had engraved into Josh's wedding band, and we do not take lightly:
"So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate." Matthew 19:6

Welcome Baby Talon!
Baby Talon, welcome to the world! We met you in your momma's tummy a few weeks before you decided to join us, and we were so excited to finally see you!

Talon started off the session a little fussy (turned out he just wanted to eat 4 times as much as he normally does!), but once he settled down, we were really able to get some gems for his mom, Christine! Especially that Easter bunny one.
O. M. G. SO CUTE!
Christine, we're pretty excited about how these turned out, and we can't wait to see him grow!
Christine's Maternity Session
Christine lost her father in late 2017, so when she decided to do her maternity photos, Christine had the wonderful idea to honor and dedicate the photos to her later father. Seeing as he had been the pilot of Apache helicopters during his time in the military, what better way to honor him than to take photos with the very choppers that he flew! We knew that this was a very special and powerful session, and were all in when she pitched us the idea. I am glad that we were allowed on base, because we LOVE her session and the meaning behind the setting!

Emmy's 7 Month Update
It's been so fun to watch little Emmy and her bubbly personality grow! We had the pleasure to take some 7 month progress pictures of her, and in the words of Josh, "She is such a DOLL!" And once you see her pictures, I don't think there will be any disputing that!

Preparing for Baby Samara
Our dear friends, Samantha and Tito, are expecting baby Samara in March, and it was our honor to be part of this step of their lives! Sam looked so beautiful, and the boys were too precious in their matching outfits. ;) ALSO, Josh gained IV's favor when he stumbled upon a trick to make him laugh! (You can see IV just dying laughing in some of the pictures!)

We have absolutely loved being able to watch and photograph this growing family! Samara, you are truly so loved already, and I can guarantee, you are being born into such a wonderful family! We can't wait to meet you soon!
Much love,

Azzams in the Pumpkin Patch!
We had such a fun time at the pumpkin patch with Brittany, Mitch, and their two cuties, Cooper & Brielle at their mini session! Cooper was SO GOOD at saying "Cheese!" We have to give him major kudos there, for sure. ;)

The Ellisons' Little Pumpkin!
Let me first say, we have absolutely loved being able to see little Emmy grow! (even if it only has been 3 months! haha) This little pumpkin was simply adorable in her strawberry costume, and in the words of Josh, "What. A. Doll!" You know you can't deny it!

Micale, sorry that Emmy just refused to smile for us, but that makes her no less precious! I mean look at that little sleeping angel! We can't wait to see this precious little face again soon!
Happy three months, little Emmy! Mikala & Josh love you! :D
