Georgia's First Communion




I mean, how cute are these? It's been a pleasure photographing the Cole family over the years & I look forward to photographing their weddings someday (don't worry mom, I know that day is a LONG ways away)!

Christine & Scott's family & engagement





Christine & Scott are getting married in Rome, Italy in a few weeks. They needed some family & engagement shots before they left & I was happy to oblige. What a great family they have. We took these at the Old Red Courthouse in downtown Dallas & some just outside of it. If I couldn't got to Rome with them then I wanted at least something that looked 'old'!

Preston's Collage Graduation






When Preston's mom Sherrye contacted me to shoot her son's graduation from UNT I thought, "Well, I hope we can get some good photos since graduations are usually crowded & lots of people take parking lot snapshots!". Good thing we met at Preston's fraternity where he was the Pres.! Then we all went to the library & found this cool fountain. Obviously these guys were having a blast & so was I (that's Preston's dad, Josh, with a mortarboard on looking like a professor - I'm just glad the SWAT team didn't repel down the side of the library to stop us dangerous criminals!

Norton Pregnancy






One of my favorites things is to shoot pregnancy photos of my bridal couples. Kim called me 5 1/2 years after I shot her wedding & asked me to photograph pregnancy/family photos with Andy & their daughter Katie. I was so excited to see them again & we got some great photos for their little boy & the whole family to enjoy.

Keshet & Family









Keshet had me take photos of her and her family for Mother's Day. This is one of my personal favorites. I was shooting in shadow & direct sunlight & didn't change my setting. This was not enhanced in Photoshop - pretty cool, eh?
The shot of Empress & son Micah made me laugh because it looks like he's choking or something and she's come to his rescue. I never know what expressions I'm going to get 'in between' shots.
