Lubbock, Texas Portrait Photographer and New Mexico Portrait Photographer

Saturday I hung out with the McWilliams family. This is a super sweet family I met at Byron and Lindsay's wedding back in August.  Lauren (below) is Byron's sister.  It was nice seeing Lindsay and Sassy too!McWilliams family Lubbock Texas, portrait session

Let me just say if I looked like this when I was a senior, or even now, then I would be living on cloud 9.  I would first have to get a tan though :)  This beautiful girl is drop dead gorgeous.  And ya know what she told me?  She said she wasn't very photogenic!  Say what!!  I am gonna strongly disagree with that one.Clovis NM 2010 senior

Albuquerque, New Mexico family

I love visiting Albuquerque. We used to call it "home". We lived there for three years while Ben went to the University of New Mexico Law School. It is a beautiful city and I miss the scenery, but not so much the traffic. I sometimes crave bagels from Einstein's. And the thing I miss the most is the 5k trail around the Academy School. It brings back great memories of my quiet times with God as I pushed myself to run the entire 3.3 miles. I'll be honest though, I haven't done that in a very LONG LONG time. So, while we were in Albuquerque back in February I had a session with the Boyd family. They have a precious little girl who gets lots of love from her parents AND grandparents. Thats a baby who is loved :)

Morrow Family. Clovis, NM Family Photographer

The Morrow family, oh how we love the Morrow family. Katy is so creative. Take a look at these pictures and you'll see what I'm talking about.

New Mexico Photographer.Baby Megyn

I couldn't stop saying "she is such a cute baby" at baby Megyn's session today. Her mom dressed her in the cutest outfits with leggings. I want a baby girl JUST so I can put leggings on her!Here is a little teaser... sixth month old baby. Clovis, NM

Texas and New Mexico Photographer

I had a very fun filled newborn session last Saturday in Amarillo, Tx. And yesterday I photographed the beautiful Jenna from Portales, NM.I am running a bit behind on my blog post people, but don't worry I will catch up. I hope these two lovely faces below will make you smile today.

New Mexico Photographer.Jacob

Jacob is one stylish boy, thanks to his sweet and beautiful momma. This sweet family drove in from Hereford, Texas for his one year birthday pictures. We of course had crazy wind, but because Jacob is so awesome he didn't seem to care. He has grown quite a bit too from the last time I photographed him.

New Mexico Photographer.I love organization

This is the fourth time I've photographed the Morrow's and everytime is wonderful. I love working with Katy because she is so organized and plans out every detail, making my job easy for me to concentrate on taking the pictures. Their little boy turned one in February and here is one sneak peek for you.More to come after next week. I will be going out of town to Vegas for a photo conference. I'm very excited to see some friends, but it will be hard this time because I have Ben and Benson staying behind. Also, my grandma is very very sick and has been in the hospital for about two weeks now. Please keep her in your prayers.

And yesterday I had a session with one of the sweetest little boys.  He would hug on me and climb up in my lap while I was taking his pictures.  Such a sweet heart.  He reminded me of my little BB.

Aimee, Mike and sweet Meryl.Dallas Photographer

Let me just say that I LOVE this family. Aimee is so sweet and dear to me. We grew up together in Texas, painting our toenails like water melons, going to church camp together, and crafting it up in the summer sewing shirts for the 4th of July.Back in November I was able to see Aimee, Mike and Meryl (meeting Meryl for the first time). And I had the pleasure of photographing their family for two days. I LOVED it. I just hung out with them and had my camera with me to snap shots in a laid back atmosphere. While Meryl selpt, Aimee and I went to Anthropologie twice. And THEN, Mike made us a very delicious breakfast. Can you say monkey bread! Oh it was so so so good :)

Take a look at the mobile Aimee made for Meryl's room. Everything Aimee touches turns to a fabulous peice of creativeness. She and her sister are some of the most creative people I know ;)

Looking back on 2009

I started looking back on all of my 2009 weddings and sessions and I just want to say a HUGE thank you to all of my clients and friends who supported me in 2009. I've grabbed some 30 plus favorites, but I want you to know that I have 100s. I would list all of them, but the dishes in the sink are calling my name and they HAVE to get done :)Enjoy some of my favorites from 2009 and again, thank you all so much for a blessed year.

You can also see some of my most favorites in the flash header at the top of my blog! And feel free to take a look through my archives of 2009.

Jacob.Texas Baby. New Mexico Photographer

The thing about a small town is you realize that everyone is related. Jacob is cousins with the Douma's and the other Tuls family.  So fun! And not only that, but I took pictures of all three families in the same weekend. Totally not planned either :)Here is sweet Jacob, a sweet 9 month old baby whom I might add is very stylish thanks to his beautiful mom.
