Welcome to another addition of the birthday series! My baby boy, Auden, turned five years old back in February, and as in true second child fashion, I am just now getting around to writing his blog post a mere three months later. Oopsies. We headed to the stunning Wild Oak Studio in Roanoke, TX for […]

We are back again at Murrell Park with another birthday post for our birthday series! My oldest son, Rowen, turned eight over the weekend and I am undoubtedly unwell. Third grade starts next week, it’s starting to sink in that my time with him is diminishing, and before we know it he will no longer […]

If you’ve been following me for any length of time then you know how I like to take new portraits of my boys every year for their birthdays. If you’re new, then welcome to the birthday series! My youngest son, Auden, turned four over the weekend and we had the best time celebrating him! Last […]

People always tell you before you become a parent how fast it all goes by. I never truly understood until I became a parent myself, and in the blink of an eye had a SEVEN year old! How?! Yesterday was his first day of second grade, and I can vividly remember when I was in […]

We are currently in February 2022, so naturally I am just now getting to Rowen’s blog post that I meant to write LAST summer! Typical working-Mom life fashion. As Forest Gump said, “It happens.” (Will come back to him later.) Nevertheless, my son Rowen turned six this past August, and what a special birthday it […]

If you’ve been following me for the past couple of years, you know that I take my own family’s photos every year. (You can peek at last years session here.) This is a project that I take such pride in year after year. Even though it can be overwhelming, it is by far the most […]

Well folks here we are. It’s March. I don’t know about you, but I for one am so ready for the warm weather! Winter is usually the slowest time of year for me, but this one has been a bit busy! I’ve basically been glued to my desk chair the past few weeks editing my […]

It’s that time of year again! When the temperatures in Texas cool off for a few days, and then jump back up to 95 degrees, when the pumpkin spice lattes return at Starbucks before even a single leaf falls on the ground, and my personal favorite: it’s the time of year when I pull out […]

The sweet, innocent spirit of a child is remarkable, but witnessing the growth of a child that you created is a treasure. Seeing them learn new things everyday and watching their personality shine on a day-to-day basis is such a privilege. For the past 1,842 days I have had a front row seat to this […]
