Theater-It Runs in the Family

I have never seen so much theatrical talent packed into one family! Sisters Christina, Mallory and Meredith wanted headshots for auditions plus some fun portraits. I split them up into two shoots and we had a blast.

Christina, 10, is just starting to become involved with theater and is a riot to photograph. She is not afraid to let loose and have a ton of fun. She also has a sassy side that we captured very well in her theatrical headshot.





Mallory, 11, sings like there is no tomorrow. In addition to her headshots and fun portraits, she sang with a mic so we could capture some promotional photos for her youtube page.






After we were done with headshots and individual portraits, I sent Mallory and Christina running into the yard for photos together. It was perfection, endless smiles and laughter.








A few weeks later, it was time for Meredith's headshot and senior portrait shoot. Not only was a gorgeous model, she pulled out some great moves for the dance portion of her shoot.

Senior Portraits-Olivia

Olivia came to me for senior portraits after being unimpressed by the typical senior portraits taken in a shoot for her school. She wanted more range and personality in her photos, so we worked together to capture a beautiful set of portraits to send out with her sorority applications.

Olivia was incredibly sweet and also stunning on camera. As a soon to be Fashion Merchandising and Marketing major at TCU, she brought many great looks to play with.

We started the shoot outside my studio for simple, relaxed portraits using natural light. Her adorable dress happened to match some flowers blooming in front of my studio. We were lucky to do this shoot before Houston's summer heat really set in.



In the studio, we added a little more drama with controlled lighting and fun jewelry.



This summer I have developed a slight obsession with bubbles, so at the end of the shoot we took a bubble machine outside and played. It was a great way to finish the day!

Andrea and Stephen: Engaged!

Shuffling back and forth from Houston to Austin has kept me very busy! During one of my trips to Austin, I took a detour to Georgetown, Tx, to photograph Andrea and Stephen. They both attended my alma mater, Southwestern University, so we all felt at home shooting their engagement photos in the Georgetown square and San Gabriel Park.

Stephen proposed to Andrea on a romantic evening walk in front of the Williamson County Courthouse, the perfect location to begin the morning.



We stepped into Sweet Serendipity, an adorable shop across from the Courthouse, for more portraits.



Our morning ended at San Gabriel Park. The rich greenery was very inspiring and matched Andrea's unique engagement ring.
