yay! this is the last, but certainly not the least, of my dallas area mini-photo shoots. and it definitely ended on a high note!
as I mentioned a while ago, I was SUPER excited for this session because of the two super-adorable twin boys. and their curly hair. and their cuteness!
and? I happen to be a twin. An Identical Mirror-Image Twin, to be precise. And older by eighteen whole minutes. So I kind of think twins are pretty spectacular...
but, back to the session:
So, it was somewhat rainy out that Sunday morning and our original choice of location wasn't open yet (we'd just picked it at the wedding the evening before and didn't confirm that it would be available)--so we went to the park just down the street and we couldn't have asked for anything better--talk about serendipitous!
check out this handsome twosome. I LOVE the smirk and the smile!
such a precious, loving family
I happen to think most feet pictures are terribly cute, but this one takes the cake!
and here's the whole foursome. isn't that tree on the right fantastic?! and I love the boys' expressions
this family was my last of my frisco minis. and what a cute one to end with! I've met Heather a couple of times over the past 9-ish years, so I was thrilled to do her session! And I saw Abby when she was a tiny tiny baby last year at our mutual friend's wedding, so I enjoyed seeing the whole family! :)
this is abby--cute, huh?
and this is sophie. she's pretty adorable too!
and here's everybody!
abby has SUCH a sweet disposition--she was so happy and easy-going. she enjoyed her rocker, the bubbles and playing with sophie.
and it is clear that she looooooves her parents!
here's sophie again
and this is my favorite picture of all. SO precious. so, so, so!
okay, so it's september and I took these pictures in JULY. two months ago to the day, actually. they got their pictures long ago--I have definitely put all my efforts into editing and meeting deadlines! just means there are lots of goodies for you to see. :)
anyway...
so, zoe and killian were SO cute. she definitely plays the big sister role. and it is obvious that they LOVE grams and papa steve! they were taking care of them that weekend while the parents were away--but I'm excited to meet mom and dad when I come to Dallas to shoot this November!*
meet zoe: so precious!
and here's killian
all four
adorable!
doesn't she have a precious smile?
blowing bubbles with papa steve...I love this one!
but this is my favorite--proud big sister and little brother not really knowing what to make of it. :)
I'm SO excited to see y'all again this fall! *what, Dallas in November?!! YES! I will be doing mini photo shoots in Dallas in November. Details VERY soon. If you are in the Dallas area and are interested in a session, please email me ASAP!
what a lovely family, yes? It was so much fun working with this family--they were full of life and enthusiasm and so easygoing!
the kiddos with mom
this waterfall was fantastic--and kind of hidden! I am SO glad we found it!
such a cute couple!
will and hope really wanted to take a picture with the statue. I have no idea how he managed to climb on it though--it's metal and in full sun and it was already over 90 degrees. Definitely the Texas heat. But they were determined! And I love this picture of brother and sister, don't you?
they look like they just "fit" together, I think.
and this is my fave from the entire session! Sometimes I suggest a jumping photo and people are very hesitant--but not this family! They went in whole hog, cheesing it up for the camera and I LOVE it. Well done, well done! And an extra high-five to the parents, 'cause they're even more enthusiastic than the kiddos!
Laurie suggested I hold these shoots in Frisco's Central Park, and boy-oh-boy, was it worth it! We were a bit overwhelmed by the Texas heat, but the weather was beautiful, and the smiles were a plenty. I'm an Oklahoma girl through and through, but this little piece of Texas sure did make me happy!
we started with some family shots
LOVE the reeds in this one
and then they broke out the guitars. or gee-tars, if you prefer. :) Bill taught Jacob how to play, and you could tell it was something special for them.
and a little birdie told me that this is one of the most treasured photos of the whole shoot!
and I made sure to get a few of just Laurie and Bill, too!
I traveled all the way to Dallas, Texas to photograph this fantastic wedding on the 4th of July! It was HOT outside, but other than that the day was simply perfect.
(and to my other and upcoming brides--this kind of turnaround for teasers isn't normal!!! I just had about, oh, seven hours in the car to catch up on editing, and that put me a little ahead!)
I've known Leanne for eight years now--she and I share a best friend--and I was so thankful to be a part of her big day! I was actually there when she and her now husband started to "hit it off" so-to-speak, so it was such a pleasure to share in their celebration!
This couple was all about the details! check it:
detail of the dress
dress. shoes. kisses.
I took a billion pictures of their gorgeous rings! You'll notice that a tie is featured in a bunch of these--it was this tie that was the theme for their entire wedding! It came along to check out papers, look at dresses, the whole shebang.
mmmm cake! As a friend-vendor I got to eat some of this deliciousness, and mmmmmmm. seriously the best wedding cake I've had all year!
and the beautiful flowers on the cake, in the vases, in the hands of the maids and the lapels of the men--all by the fabulous Cindy.
after the ceremony the chucks came out. I loooooove converse. I wore them pretty much constantly in middle school and a good bit of high school (exchanging them only for toe shoes, basketball shoes and softball cleats!) Jarrod loves them too--and these custom kicks were a gift from his fabulous bride!
this is their exit-to-bubbles, and then that's Leanne twirling with her flower girl. The story goes that when she saw Leanne in her dress for the first time she kept saying "twirl, Lee-lee, twirl!!!" we had to capture it, don't you agree?
