…I married the man of my dreams…who soon turned out to be my bestest friend ever! 

Happy A Day, baby!  Love ya crazy.

Last weekend, Sam and ‘her posse’ of friends came out to do her fall session and we had a great time.   Sam’s always fun to photograph because…well, because she just is!  There’s several times where she just takes off, doing her own thing and I happen to come along with the camera, lol. 

Sunny-girl, hope you enjoyed the day and that you start feeling better!!  luvya!!

I had the pleasure of meeting Jordan a few weekends ago.  The day was beautiful but we fought the wind as a cold front blew in.  Jordan was a trooper…flashing that million dollar smile, in between shivers and chattering teeth!  But we were able to get some gorgeous images of her…not hard at all since she’s so cute!  It was hard to choose just a few for the blog.  Jordan…hope you had a good time and enjoy your images.  Erica, you did a fabulous job being “The Light”  for the day!! 

***Check out the last 3 images of the post***   I’ve posted a few sample page layouts to show seniors what an artbook designs look like.  Our “My Life” artbooks are One-of-a-Kind, custom designed hard-cover books.  Using  several of your images, and graphics that compliment them, we’ll create an awesome book for you to remember your senior year.   If you are interested in more information about these books, give us a call or email!

You’ve heard of making hay while the sun shines?  Well… I guess in Texas you play in the dark if the snow falls!!  Right as we finished up a session, Jeff runs in to tell us that it’s snowing and sticking.    Sar decided to build a snowman from the snow on her car.  I grabbed a light and headed out in the dark to snap a quick pic of her playing in the snow.  Grabbed this one too looking in on one of the trees. 

Now…back to editing!!  Have fun & stay warm…

The Spillers had their family session recently.  It was a pretty day with some good-looking models…what more can a photographer ask for, right?  Andrea, Andy & Hannah… congratulations on winning the gift certificate for Diboll Day and thanks for giving us the opportunity to work with y’all! 

‘Tis the season for families!!  Chuck, Lisa, and their twins Ellie & Eule went out with me a couple of weeks ago for a family session when I needed a few sample images.   I met Lisa several years ago when I worked at the school and simply love her personality…little bit of sugar and a whole lotta spice…she cracks me up.  They’re such a sweet family and Ellie & Eule are too cute.  Chuck, Lisa…had a great time!  Thanks for coming out for the session and hope you like them.  (Luvya chicky!!)

Here’s a quick glimpse at the Karber’s family session.  A cold front came through right as we arrived to do the outdoor portion…very cold & very windy.   Soon Annie & Alison were shivering…So we snapped a few quick images, then headed inside so the girls could warm up.  This precious family is expecting a new addition in the coming weeks.  Lauren & Kenny came back in this weekend to do their maternity session.  I’ll be posting a few from that session soon.

Remember…through December we have a family special that is great for sharing with friends and family this Christmas!  Buy a 16X20 mounted wall portrait and receive 3 gift prints of the same image free!  And if you bring a donation to the Diboll PD toy drive or the Diboll Christian Outreach, we’ll waive the session fee.  Hurry…this special is ending soon!

Meet Ashtin!  Ashtin cheers for Diboll’s JV squad.  She’s a gorgeous girl with alot of spirit.  Ashtin…hope you have a great year and alot of fun!  Hope you like your collage.
