Stella and Dot Fall Launch

I was recently asked to photograph the fashion show and Fall launch for the the Stella and Dot jewelry line.  The event took place at the Silo Bar and Restaurant.  It was an amazing event - beautiful girls, fabulous jewels, and fun drinks!  See for yourself!

Didn't I tell you the girl were beautiful!?!

This necklace was my favorite piece of the night.  

They even had custom martinis for the event!

Shea & Morgan {Engaged!}

Have you ever met someone and felt like you have known them for years?  This is exactly how I feel about Shea and Morgan.  These two are so easy to be around.  It was the kind of photo shoot where after we were done, I wanted to ask them...so, what are you guys doing now?  Can I come?!

They are both so full of life and you can see why they fell in love with each other.  I am so excited to shoot their wedding in a month.  What an honor to witness such a special day between these two!!!!

LOOOOOOOOOVE this one!

I couldn't resist...

Poor Morgan was not too thrilled that I had my heart set on doing this picture.  She was a good sport!

A New Venture

I suppose every photographer looks for something to set them apart from the others.  Truth be told, I was inspired to try underwater photography after following (and admiring) a few underwater photography blogs and watching Jaws with my husband.  At first, I was a little apprehensive about this session. But then I realized, I live in Texas where it will be 100 degrees for the next 3 months and I will get to swim in someone else's pool...and get paid to do it.  I am absolutely thrilled at the final product.  If you are interested in an underwater session, call me.  This could be my new favorite summer activity.

A special thanks to my model, Annalyse, for doing flips, handstands, drinking out of a straw, and even wearing a Batman cape and mask, all for the sake of art.

Emily and Eli {Big Sister, Little Brother}

After making these two sit in the middle of the street for a few pictures, stand and lay in bug infested grass, and endure absolutely intense heat, I feel justified after seeing these pictures.  Wasn't it worth it?!?!
