Britney Takes Downtown

Cooperative, enthusiastic, and beautiful, it was such a pleasure to spend the morning with our exceptional model, Britney. :)

When you decide that you want to go exploring at 6:30am on a humid, Saturday, Houston morning, you really need to find someone who is willing to cooperate (and be awake for the pictures)! Cooperative, enthusiastic, and beautiful, it was such a pleasure to spend the morning with our exceptional model, Britney. :) We found an empty garage rooftop, and explored the heart of downtown, learning and having a blast the entire time! Thank you, Philip Emerson Photography, for coordinating the hang, and thank you, Britney, for being you!

Brianda's Maternity session

Josh previously worked with Brianda, and when she contacted us to have a maternity session, it was an easy and resounding "YES!" Brianda said that she loved the natural light and nature from our previous shoots, so we collectively decided to meet at Houston's Hermann Park- easily one of the most beautiful and lush areas of the city!  She looked absolutely angelic, especially with the light of golden hour peering from behind her through the branches of the trees. 

Brianda and Ricardo were both such a pleasure to work with, and their love for little Noel, and excitement to have him finally arrive were both apparent throughout our time together. Congratulations, you two! We're so excited to see your little one in a few weeks!

Joanna Class of 2017

As soon as we met Joanna for her session, I knew that we would hit it off great! Joanna was fun and exuded such joy and a great, Godly spirit.

As soon as we met Joanna for her session, I knew that we would hit it off great! Joanna was fun and exuded such joy and a great, Godly spirit.

She decided to have her session at University of Houston, where she will be graduating from on the 14th with a Bachelor's in education. We toured the campus together, laughing and clicking away the whole time. Check out those library shots- they were our favorite from the whole evening! And ironically, afterward, Joanna described the library as her "safe place" while she was in school.

Year 1

On April 10, 2017, we celebrated our first anniversary! We decided to celebrate by vacationing at the gorgeous Hotel Galvez in Galveston, and then traveled to Dallas to stay at the Fairmont Hotel. It was a much needed vacation, and we had a blast playing with our new Nikon D7200!

Brandon & TJ's Engagements

Brandon and TJ decided to have their photos done in their (and my) favorite Texas town, Galveston, where they both now live, work, and attend their local church. Their love for one another is undeniable, and their excitement and fun spirit was contagious the whole day. 

When Brandon spilled the beans to Josh that he was proposing to TJ, Josh jumped at the idea of being able to set up a shoot of our friends. I couldn't be more happy that we did!

TJ also endearingly themed each mini session after songs from Brandon's album! We love you guys! Check out their session!
