It oozes country chic living. Leah is a great antique shopper as well as decorator so I had to photograph a few of my favorite pieces of her home too.Take a look! I also love the photographs she chose to display in her home (shown below).

Thank you Curtis family for coming all the way from Kansas to Clovis, New Mexico for your family session. I know you have family to visit while you are here, but I really appreciate you choosing me to be your family photographer. Your kids are darling, and so beautiful.

She is like my older sister that I never had. Her kids call me Aunt Cristy. Our husbands are great buds. What can I say, this shoot was a wonderful hang out time and I just happened to bring my camera :) "Like" the McAden's family session to share on Facebook below, and help spread the word of Cristy Cross Photography.

Madi's Summer Flare Clovis, New Mexico High School Senior Photo Shoot

Happy Saturday! Madi's shoot this summer was on a perfect day...well maybe a little hot and sticky, but perfect lighting. She chose some of the best outfits, too. I love the simplicity of the first one, the hat and shoes with the second outfit, and I loved the flowy country girl look of the third outfit. Yay! Thanks Madi for choosing me to be your Class of 2013 senior photographer. You looked beautiful!

Lexie's Summer Glow Clovis, New Mexico High School Senior Session.Class of 2013

/

Lexie, a 2013 high school senior representative for Cristy Cross Photography, is looking very lovely in her high school senior photographs. She invited me out to her home for her session and I LOVE how they are turning out. Yowzers! I have been photographing Lexie for 4 years now. First in her brothers wedding, then a photo shoot with her and her sister, she was my Alice in Alice in Wonderland photo shoot, and now. I can't believe she was 14 years old when we started, because back then she looked 18. Now that she is 18, she looks 22. She is one amazing girl, and I will miss her when she goes off to college. Stay tuned for more from Lexie's session.

Class of 2013, I'd love to work with you this summer for your senior session. Taking only a few more spots for summer appointments. Contact me to get pricing and book your shoot. Take a look at the current 2012-2013 H.S Seniors here and get ideas on your own senior shoot.

Baby Aaron Turns One

Baby Aaron turns one this weekend. Thanks Valdez family for letting me be apart of your sweet family. And thanks to baby Aaron for giving me a workout. I'm not kidding when I say this kid is FAST. He walks/runs all over the place, and I'm telling you I was tired when I got home.I just ooo-ed and aaahhh-ed over your pictures as I downloaded them Thursday night. I can't wait for you to see the rest at your viewing and ordering session.

Carrie and Barrett's Odessa, Texas Couples Session

/

Carrie and Barrett invited me to make a journey to Odessa, Texas for their Couples Session. On my way, I passed down memory lane as I drove through Tahoka, Texas where I grew up from a baby to 8 years old, and then made frequent visits to see my grandparents. Then I passed by this super awesome sunflower field that was a sea of yellow. So gorgeous! And when I arrived to Carrie and Barrett's they were getting all of their belongings and props ready to go for our sand dune photo shoot. And then after the shoot (I have to brag a little) they bought us dinner from Texas Roadhouse where Carrie use to work. So when I asked her what to get she quoted almost the entire menu. I chose the ribs, with green beans, and sauteed mushrooms. Is your mouth watering yet? Mine is. I also slept in the most comfortable bed, and woke up to yummy cinnamon rolls and fruit. I felt so welcomed :) Thanks Carrie and Barrett!! I just have a few for now that I want to share, but believe me, you will want to come back and see the rest. This couple doesn't take a bad picture, and we have LOTS of awesome shots of these two.
