Christina & Matt :: Engaged!!

For the past couple of years, Christina and Matt have become two of our favorite people. When we found out that they were engaged there was definitely some celebrating going on! Shortly after, they were eager to get their engagement pics done and came up with several great spots around Dallas to take them. We, or Christina actually, drove us from Breadwinners to White Rock Lake then finished at the Lakewood Theatre. These two are a riot together and in their presence you can't help but catch onto some of that excitement, as I hope these photos depict.
I can't wait to see where life will take this couple!
Jay and I wish you two all the best and our Congratulations!

Crystal & Andy

Last Saturday, Jay and I were able to visit our old stomping grounds around Denton, TX. We got to visit with some old friends, listen to a little music, and visit my all time favorite Italian restaurant, Luigi's, while we were there.

Our main purpose for the drive, though, was to meet up with my friend, Andy, and his wife, Crystal, to take some romantic pics around the square. These two have never been able to get photos taken together so Andy decided to surprise Crystal with this session for Valentine's Day. Andy and Crystal were so sweet together and looked so natural in front of the camera, they made my job super easy! We had a ton of fun hanging out with you two, thank you, Andy for asking me to take these portraits for you! Enjoy!

Walker Family + Paige's Maternity Pics

A couple of years ago, Paige asked me to take her maternity pics when she was pregnant for the first time. Since that was my first maternity session, I was honored to be her photographer. Now that she's due with her second, it was my pleasure to take some new photos of her alone and with husband, Zach, & daughter, Blake. Paige looked beautiful with the glow of motherhood.
I can't wait to meet the newest addition to the Walker family! Congrats Paige & Zach!

Esquibel Family Photos

Later in the same day as the Bolton family photos, I drove over to Dallas to meet the Esquibel family. I met this family through my friend, April, and I'm so glad that they asked me to take some pics for them! Valerie & Raul were so easy going and let me lead them through out this beautiful park in Highland Park, Dallas, TX. Baby Ayden made me work to get some smiles out of him since he missed his nap but I think these shots still turned out great!
You guys have such a gorgeous family and it was so good to meet you!
Can't wait to see more of Ayden as he grows up!

Bolton Family Photos

Thanks to my friend, Jen, from college, I got to meet and photograph the Bolton family last weekend at the Grapevine Botanical Gardens. This family was so cute & patient! Even though baby Addison wasn't in the best of moods, we got a few smiles out of her by the end of the shoot.
Thank you guys, it was a pleasure to meet and photograph your beautiful family!

Mrs. Van

After her daughter, Christina, posed for me at the end of last summer, Karen finally got her turn. I was able to take some portraits for Karen in their Allen home and am so excited that she'll be able to surprise her husband with some of these pics for his birthday! Just like her daughter, Karen is a natural beauty and these images depict the gift that the women in this family were blessed with!

Christine & Mirco :: Engaged!

Thanks to my dad (who works with Christine), Jay & I had the pleasure of meeting & photographing Christine & Mirco for their engagement pics. We met up at La Cantera in San Antonio at the end of my trip home last weekend. It was a gorgeous day & I'm sure the weather was only a precursor for what to expect at their destination wedding!
These two made a very lovely couple and Jay & I want to wish them all the best! Thank you guys!

Pullen Family House Warming

Last weekend while visiting family, Jay and I dropped by my older sis' new house before we had to leave San Antonio.
Heather and her husband, Jeremiah, were so hospitable and threw a fantastic get together for the family with great food and conversation! They just moved into their new place about a week before we came down but insisted on throwing this bash early just for us! Here are some shots of the family in their new place & the crazy kids along with some pics of the rest of us that attended & all the goodies they set out for us! Enjoy!
