Skate Park

Tue, 16 Mar 2010 08:55:46 -0600

This weekend James and I snuck out early to go to the skate park. There is one not far from our home and he generally loves to go early becasue the big boys are not there. Eventually he will get over this but right now he is secretly working on his killer moves.

Wouldn't it be awesome if we all walked around with smiles like this every day. Of course people would think you are crazy and sometimes that would be okay.

Lukas, you done good buddy! Hope you get to feeling better too!

Adoption Anyone ?

On April 10th we will be hosting another Dog Portraits Event with The Hollywood Frame Gallery. The only difference this year is that we have teamed up with the Houston Humane Society to help with food donations. Today Monica from the Humane Society brought in a few puppies for us to photograph for our information pieces about the food drive. These two little pups really clung to everyone's heart in the studio but unfortunately nobody could take them home. So if you are in the market for love this Valentine's season be sure and check out the great dogs and cats at the Houston Humane Society.

Zoe one year later

Zoe rocks and it scares the hell out of me that she has already been rockin for a year. That's all that needs to be said.

A Thousand Words

Wed, 20 Jan 2010 11:17:15 -0600

Every once in awhile I will see an image in a shoot that I think is rather funny, print it with the inscription on the back "1000 words". I usually give this to one of my staff that thinks I am crazy already.

Today I came across this lovely entry for 1000 words.

The Kegg family rocks the house and was a lot of fun to photograph. This was one of the first images I took to make sure the lighting was right. Fortunately for me I think it speaks a 1000 words about family. Its never a dull moment with lots of kids especially when one of your young-ins has four legs and refuses to look at the camera.

Enjoy your Wednesday everyone, and keep an eye out for 1000 words.

Zoe and the Oreo

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 12:15:40 -0600

For those of you that have more than 1 child, you will understand the phenomenon I call second child syndrome...in this case it is Third Child Syndrome. This is easily explained with an example. As a new parent, you want to ensure that your baby is given the most healthy of snacks and you would never introduce sugar (at least not in the first year). You carefully choose fruits and vegetables that are cut into perfect finger foodsFast forward to child number three and you get Zoe digging into an Oreo. Ohh and did she love the Oreo!

Merry Christmas to all and too all a good night!

The End

Thu, 17 Dec 2009 21:19:14 -0600

We had our last session for the year today and it couldn't have been a better way to cap everything off. Mary was the last on our list for the day. She actually graduated from high school last year but her mother still wanted to get a portrait done. We noticed that Mary had a real cool Meryl Streep look so we kicked out a few classy stage images that totally rock her beautiful look.

Mary was down with a little something different so we played around and decided not to worry about the details and just take some great photos. We had a lot of fun telling GREAT JOKES but I think everyone is tired of my jokes.

I love the next images. It is just real easy going and pretty much no frills.

Kristen thinks Mary looks like Dakota Fanning in the next images. I don't see it but then again there is a lot I miss on a daily basis. Good thing I have people like Denise, Kristen, Leanne and Keri to point those things out for me.

Thanks for kicking out the jams with us Mary. It was a lot of fun! Safe travels back to Chicago!

Mr. Frederick's First Day on Earth

Tue, 15 Dec 2009 15:54:49 -0600

Today we went out to Clear Lake to photograph the newest Texan we know. Mr. Frederick comes to us just before Christmas with squishy cheeks and a super dooper head of hair!

Mommy did a great job and the happy couple couldn't keep their eyes off the baby. Both Valeria and Fred were so easy going and happy. It makes my job more fun and rewarding to help record this very special day.

Baby's First Day portrait sessions are one of my favorite products we offer. Its cool to see dads get mushy about their little babies for the first time. Everything is new and everyone is getting to know each other.

Welcome home little big man! We are excited you have arrived to help brighten our world!

Snow Day

Fri, 04 Dec 2009 14:02:01 -0600

Yes, It is snowing in Houston Today. Little Man James was the first of three to get out early. He is hanging with us at the studio until it is time to gather the girls at their school. He is super excited about the snow but doesn't like the cold.

Too Many Kids?

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 08:22:49 -0600

Recently, the Weber boys came to the studio for their portrait. Monica is always fun to watch with these four boys and she manages them quite elegantly. She told me that her oldest was giving her grief one morning last week while getting ready for school. It was the typical battle that happens with most families on school day mornings. In an attempt to show his hierarchy in the family, he was disagreeing with the clothes that were handed to him for the day. Monica decided he was just going to be late for school that day and moved on to the other three boys. Her son ended up getting to school at almost 9 AM that day and Mom made him walk by himself to the office for his late slip and on to his classroom. That afternoon, when Monica picked up the kids she learned what her son told the school the reason for being late, "I'm sorry I am late, my mom has too many kids."

We feel lucky to have the Webers as clients. James is so happy to have "the boys" down the street. They are a great bunch.

Besides being an awesome mom of 4 boys, Monica is also an interior designer. She was responsible for helping us re-design our client review and consultation room with beautiful modern custom made furniture. If you are looking for an interior designer for your home or office, we highly recommend Monica. She can be contacted at:

Birthday Cake Anyone?

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 21:24:17 -0600

We are so lucky when we are able to photograph families as they grow over the years. I have been photographing the Robinsons since little Luke was being expected. If you have come to the studio and seen our album samples, you will recognize Luke and his family from the custom designed Baby's First Year Album in which Luke is shown as he grows up through progression in a cool red chair. He is now the big brother and we have been lucky to photograph his sisters.

The other day we had the whole gang back in for Emily & Abigail's first birthday session. These 2 cuties have thrived over the past year.

Abigail was quite dainty when it came to getting her fingers in the cake, but Emily on the other hand, ate enough cake for the both of them. Luke even got to get in on the sugar high. These birthday cake sessions are really fun and unpredictable. We never know if the kiddos are going to dig in. We always hope for a big mess. It is a good thing we have a big stainless sink for clean up. We hope you guys like the preview. We have had a lot of fun this year with one of our favorite families.
