Eggs In A Nest | Sugar Shots Photography

March 30th, 2010 , Posted in Richmond Texas Photography, Sugar Land + Houston Photography: My Life, Sugar Land + Houston Photography: Random, Sugar Land Texas Photography

This is what you call Eggs in A Nest Breakfast (sort of):

So yeah…  I thought I was going to really get creative this morning and actually make a real recipe for breakfast…. No cereal.  No microwave outmeal.  A real, hot breakfast.  

Well, my first attempt at making a yummy looking breakfast with a cute name turned into a hot mess shortly thereafter!  I wanted to give this simple little recipe a test run before making it for my girls for breakfast; so, this morning after everyone was at school, I gave it a go!  Not quite what I imaged it’d look like, but it still tasted scrumptious.  :)

My review of this easy-peasy breakfast:  LOVE it!  Love the name, the look, and the taste!  I think I’ll make it a bunch this spring…  The girls will adore the fact that they can help me cut the holes in the bread and sprinkle the cheese… wow!

Ready | Sugar Land + Houston Family Photography

March 30th, 2010 , Posted in Richmond + Sugar Land + Houston Anytime Photography, Richmond + Sugar Land + Houston Family Photography, Richmond + Sugar Land + Houston Pet Photography, Richmond Texas Photography, Sugar Land Texas Photography

After being delayed for months with horrible weather conditions, this family’s photo session finally took place this past week…  Literally, the original appointment and all the various attempts at remake times just weren’t working with the weather’s plans.  So, finally, we had decided that no matter what, we’d finally make this thing happen!

And what do you think happened on the day of their session?

It drizzled.  Non-stop.

But, no worries!  This awesome family of troopers held out and created some fabulous photos indoors and out!  Thanks guys for braving the rain with me!

Never too old for a little mom/daughter love…  Adorable and sweet:

Grandma was there too…  So we could snap up some of the 3 generations:

And the cutie-pie puppies of the family:

LOTS more to come F Family…  Can’t wait to share them with you, SOON!  :)

There is no doubt about it… Spring is here and the flowers are in full bloom!  I LOVE this time of year…  I love the colors found in people’s yards, the colors of the wild flowers (and some weeds) growing on the sides of the road, and switching over from our snuggly winter wear to light and fresh spring clothing!   Spring is just simply gorgeous from any angle….  

And to help usher in the luscious sights of spring, Julie Martin from ZozoBugBaby is coming out with the most wonderful twirly, spring inspired outfits… Her designs make you want want to dress up all cutesy and go out for a walk in a garden!  Or, go out and sit in a field of full of wild bluebonnets.  Or, better yet, take your kids out for a fun picnic in a wide open field of yellow flowers and clear blue skies…  Just for the heck of it!  The color palette that Julie is using just makes my head spin and makes me love spring even more!

Here is one of her latest creations, The Addison Swing Top and Capri Pants…. This outfit will added to her shop some time today, so get ready!

Lovely little notted tie at the top:

And, matching cute little pink/cream capri pants:

This outfit is just too perfect for hanging out on a nice spring day!

This one is probably my favorite:

And, obviously this outfit must be fun to wear… My little A was in such a silly mood during this shoot while modeling:

That’s all for now…  If you like The Addison Swing Top and Capri Pants,

you should definitely go check out Miss Julie’s other fab creations in her shop

AND be on the look-out for this one to hit the store sometime today!  ;-)

Hello Adorable. | Richmond + Sugar Land + Houston Family Photography

Oh goodness!  That’s precisely what I thought as soon as I saw this little fella in his tiny manly outfit with his miniture glasses!  I knew, without a doubt, that this cute family’s images would be completely delightful!  

And, was I right?  Or, was I right?

You decide. ; – )

(However, be forewarned: the Ooooo! and Ahhhh! urge is going to be extremely strong

as your eyes fall upon these totally cute kids!  Don’t say I didn’t warn you!)

Adventurist is quite a perfect word to describe the oldest little guy…

Here he is on one of his many trips running away from the group to go do his exploring thang:

I loved all the shots I got of mom with her twins…  She’s insanely gorgeous and the twins are both so darling!

I couldn’t narrow these next few down, so here’s all 4!

Older brother again…  he was fascinated with this gravel road.  The rocks instantly became his prized possessions!

Change of scenery; change of clothes.

And, lastly:

I can’t wait to show you the rest, D + R!  They are super cute and I think you’ll be thrilled!

Hit the road, Jack! | Traveling Photographer: Austin, Texas

March 5th, 2010 , Posted in Austin Texas Photography Specials Sales

 

It’s that time of year again!  I’m heading north to the Austin area to do sessions again!  I’m super excited to try out some new hot spots and offer some GREAT things to my Austin clients!  Not only am I offering full and mini sessions, but I’ve also decided to give my Austin clients a FREE digital image of their choice with printing rights!  YAY!  Then, to top it off, they get a discount on all their a la carte purchases!  Talk about fun!

(Speaking of mini sessions…  I don’t offer these very often and I’m curious: Are my Sugar Land  / Houston area clients interested in these?  Hmmm… Drop me a line & let your voice be heard!! )

Anyhow, if you’re interested in meeting up in Austin, let me know – Session spots are limited due to the fact that I will only be in town for two days! And, also if you’d like to look over a full price list before signing up, shoot me an email and I’ll send it over to you!
