Sweet Weston's family is so dear to our hearts. We have known the Taylor family since I (Kristen) was in school, and we have been good friends ever since.
We photographed Weston's older sister's newborn portraits almost two years ago as well, so when I met him, I immediately recognized him. He looked so much like his sister, but he also has such a sweet disposition. Gentle, calm, and generally pretty content. You can't ask for much more than that in a newborn.
This was a hybrid session newborn-family, so enjoy their cute selves, because we do!

We are still playing catch up on our portrait posts, during the Christmas holiday we had the absolute pleasure of creating portraits for Senator Ogden and his entire family.
Also, this is the only baby girl from the grandkids, and I think Tim just fell in love. She has convinced him that life will be just fine with us having a girl on the way too:)
To a beautiful day, a beautiful family, and beautiful portraits to be enjoyed for years to come!
Here are a couple of my favorites of the entire family. The first one in particular came out gorgeous on canvas.
And how cute are these grand-boys with their mustaches and swords? What fun parents to bring toys (and costumes) for the boys during the session! I thought it was a perfect way to capture and remember their ages right now. What a treasure for their parents and grandparents.
Also, this is the only baby girl from the grandkids, and I think Tim just fell in love. She has convinced him that life will be just fine with us having a girl on the way too:) Speaking of the adorable baby girl, here is more where that came from...
We were also able to capture each of the families together.
Mr. & Mrs. Ogden on their Anniversary, what a happy couple. Sincerely, this family was such a joy to work with, and I hope you enjoyed their portraits too!

Meet the Aston Family. Also we call them some of the sweetest people we have ever met. No, seriously, salt of the earth type folks. I met Maite (that is pronounced mai-tay:) while hanging out with a group of close girl friends over a year ago, and just loved her from the start. She truly has the most sincere sun-shiney personality ever. She was telling all of us that she moved with her husband from Spain to California, and then from California to central Texas, where she is now. All of the ladies in the group are just going on about how hard that must be for her, and Maite just said, "no, it's an adventure, and I love my husband and family, so we live here now."
Totally impressed.
So, when asked if we would photograph her completely adorable family in the fall, of course I could not wait!
Enjoy these Texas sun-shiney family portraits of the Aston Family.
I just adore these portraits of their oldest son, Walter.
And here is a collage of cuteness. Walter is so sweet with his little brother, Liam.
Love, love, love these portraits of Steve and Maite!
When I look at this next portrait, it completely embodies how I want to mother. It is so tender and loving, and this one portrait, I am sure will mean the world to Walter in 20 years. When he can look back and have a visual reminder of how his mother loves him.

In mid November of last fall we hosted an all day mini-session event in the ft. worth area. We like to do this annually in that area of Texas as a way of serving all of our family and their friends too!
You may be familier with this kind of session, because they are growing in popularity across the photography industry as a whole. Something that I would like to clarify is that a mini-session is not for every client. For example, if you have never had professional portraits taken of your family, squeezing them into a mini-session will only leave you wishing you had more. A mini-session will NOT deliver all of the wonderful memories and benefits that you can expect from a full length family portrait session. We make sure to clarify this point with clients when booking, because if you have some idea of walking away with 30 amazing portrats of your family that is not going to happen.
A mini-session is very strictly one location (the photographer's choice) and 30 min in length. So, a mini-session is totally appropriate and suitable for a family who stays current with their family portraits as well as portraits of all of their children during those milestone moments. If you are only looking for one or two updated family portraits and a few of the children, this is totally the session for you! So, without any more of this chitty-chatting. Here are a few of the favorite portraits that were created this year.

Hello readers and clients from a far,
If you have been putting off booking a family session all year, or years, don't let your children grow another inch without letting us capture their unique personalities forever.
I do have family in ft. worth, so once a year, I like to offer a weekend up for our people in the D/FW area. Announcing the date....
Saturday, November 19th we will be booking mini-sessions! Contact ME for more info on reserving your session.
