2008-07-05T20:28:00.002-05:00

Gosh she is beautiful! I can hardly stand it! (and, yes, she's mine...)

My guess is her sister will be participating in test photos in the future since everyone is gushing over this angel :) she's a bit jealous! hahaha

What better way to celebrate summer than with a new baby!

Maternity images are just so inspiring!
And look at the last photo - you can see baby's foot... ready to make an entrance??

Happy 4th! Celebrate!

This year's Hope Calendar!

2008-06-30T20:35:00.002-05:00

Tomorrow starts the process of selecting the models for the calendar and I am happy to say it is going to be a very difficult job! Who could imagine that there are so many generous families willing to take time out of their schedules to share their beautiful kids with all of us!!
Stay tuned for updates as we begin photographing :) I am excited because out of my norm, I have purchased a stack of various wings and have been knee high in tulle for matching tutus... I'll share some peeks in a few weeks!

Cousin to the baby below :)

blast from the past...

2008-05-23T14:32:00.001-05:00

I am told these girls like "window shopping" for babies on my website - which just thrilled me so much! And because I have since moved away I no longer have the pleasure of photographing them, so I wanted to post a blast from the past and say HELLO!!! Where did the time fly - this was nearly 3 years ago!

I have 2 shipments of child-sized wings coming in for this summer's photo shoots for the Hope Calendar!

Angel wings of every variety, fairies, butterflies...

That should give a good hint of what will be in store for the 2009 calendar kids :)

I can't wait to begin!

Special thank you to www.trendbus.com and www.nightmarefactory.com for their generous spirit helping out the Hope Calendar and Houston area charities!
