Jack, Joy and everyone else!

I'd like you to meet this GREAT family...there are a lot of them. What a delightful family they were...and are! This was by far the biggest group of people I've photographed at one time. It was a challenge but I enjoyed every moment. These are a few of my favorites from the session.

**Priscilla** {Maternity Portraits] {Odessa, TX} {Midland, TX}

I think I officially have a fascination with pregnant women. They absolutely glow! I used to think that's just something people say...but it's true. Maternity sessions might be my favorite photo shoots...for the time being at least.

Meet Priscilla. Do you see the glow? Priscilla had her baby girl about two weeks after these pictures. I got to meet little Ambri a week ago and she's precious. But, for now, enjoy these beautiful pictures of a soon-to-be new mom.
Which one is your favorite?

**Leslie and Charlie Dog** {Portraits} {Midland, TX}

Wow. Moving is a challenge...and we haven't even packed a single box yet. My husband and I have been painting for almost a month now. It might be a challenge but we are so grateful to have this challenge in our lives. It has been hard to balance my photography business and the moving process at the same time. I have so many ideas bouncing around in my head but no time to make them a reality. Don't give up on me yet! Keep checking back to see what's new!

In other news my co-worker, boss, supervisor, friend--she has many names in my book-- asked me to take her Christmas pictures this year. We had fun exploring this new location. I think it has become my new favorite spot. I love the colors of the house.
Charlie was such a good dog model! He was pretty distracted most of the time by all the new smells and sights but can you blame him? He is a dog!

Leslie's grandmother died in September so she wanted to incorporate some of her things, like the ring and scarves. I think those pictures turned out beautifully! It means so much to me to be able to capture a memory like that. One day, fifty years from now, someone might be looking at these pictures day dreaming about what the world used to be like...

Gracie

I met Gracie and her mom through some good friends of mine. She's graduating in May and hopes to attend art school. This girl has a contagious smile and laugh. Not only is she a photographer's dream (because she smiles and laughs on command!) but I'm sure she brightens her friends' lives with her cheerfulness.

We had a blast taking these pictures...and finding beautiful fall trees in the most unexpected places. Thank you Gracie for being a fabulous model. I had a hard time picking my favorites but here they are!

Neil, Holli, Faith & Gracie

These girls have the most precious faces. I love it when siblings look completely different! But both of them have cuteness in common for sure. We tried a new location for some of these pictures. I love the way it turned out...so fun!
