grant. lifestyle family photographer houston, tx

happy 1st birthday little buddy! i loved taking your pictures. you had my heart from the start – with that pretty smile & those sparkly eyes…you have quite the personality! i liked when you gave me hugs in order to try to get close to my camera…maybe you’ll be a photographer one day! you got to eat a homemade cake, made with love by your mommy just for you! we went to the park (times two) & then went back to your house to play. that was yesterday. today is your real birthday. your momma said the party was FANTASTIC! i bet it was! call me tomorrow to tell me all about it, ok grant!? 😉

myra & jeremy, thanks so much for everything. you guys were so much fun & so accommodating. i loved my time with you guys! xoxo

letters to our children. may

when you’re done here…please check out this circle of friends & start with my friend courtney slazinik of click it up a notch.

dear miles & garrett…

there will come a time in your life when you will get very busy…life is full of things that will try to pull you in every direction & spread you as thin as you can go. don’t forget what really matters to you…be happy & fulfilled. take the time for the things that matter. make time for the people you love. try not to get stressed or overwhelmed about the little stuff because it takes away from the big things that matter. life is too short…enjoy it.

recently i read a fortune cookie that said: minutes are worth more than money so spend them wisely. this is true kids so don’t forget it. 🙂

i love you more than you know (always…no matter what) & will always be your biggest fans. xoxo.

don’t ever forget how much you guys loved each other in this picture below. i hope that adorable brotherly love just keeps on growing!

summer in the city minis

this has been in the works for a while. for those of you who follow me or know me, you know i really don’t ever do mini sessions. it typically doesn’t fit my shooting style to be quick. since i love lifestyle photography, i like to get to know people…i’m so chatty i usually haven’t stopped talking your ear off from the start of your session & we’re already 30 minutes in, so minisessions intimidated me a little in the past. i am 100% no longer feeling that way for so many reasons & truly couldn’t be more excited about this announcement. the location couldn’t be better suited for minisessions. this fresh, modern space has been my favorite find since i discovered it almost two years ago & i have dreamed of using it in this way for quite some time. for a visual of this lovely location i keep referring to, i will take you to a session i loved & still love: speedracer. i receive emails all the time asking about minis so i am happy to be able to share this new development with all of you!

without further ado…i’ll stop boring you & make my announcement already…

moving on up. houston senior photographer

this family is so special to me! they are the nicest, funniest, most hilarious, kind hearted, awesome people you could ever meet. i could go one & on but i know no one has that long to sit here & read my blog post. i met beth when dani was in 5th grade. she has been extremely supportive & kind to me through the years & i am so appreciative. i was lucky enough to photograph christie two years ago when she graduated & not their baby, dani, is graduating! i knew this shoot would be fun but their personalities outdid themselves again & somehow i had even more fun that i had planned on!

dani – congratulations on your new chapter in life! i hope you have a blast at a&m…i know you will!
if there were more andersens in the world, it would be a better place…i think all of you are so unbelievably cool & special! thanks for asking me to do this again!
