Alice and Wonderland



So a couple of months back I joined a website called Model Mayhem in order to get some fresh faces for some projects I was working on. My big dream is to be a fun fashion photographer of sorts and get my work published that would be a huge highlight of my life if that would happen! So I posted a casting call for Modern Day Fairy Tales which is something I've wanted to shoot for awhile and Kali Ann was interested and we went from there. Kali was great, we worked really well together and I got tons of amazing shots and can't wait to work with her again. She was my modern day Alice in Wonderland!

Random


So this will be officially my last post of today, I know I have posted alot and you all are probably overwhelmed but after being sick all day today I feel I've accomplished alot!
Now my husband and Chris are playing Left for Dead directly behind me and I can no longer concentrate on the computer... apparently killing zombies is humerous and fun all wrapped into one game!!
So here is the last post dedicated to the random things I like to make lol. The onesies I made for Tiffany and Chris's new baby who will be here in a few weeks! And the comic book bow I made for John. I wrapped Catcher in the Rye and Where the Wild Things are in an old spider man comic and handmade a bow to go on top!

Karissa and Will December 20th 2008



Karissa and Will were married December 20, 2008 in Weatherford TX.
They are an amazing couple with a cute little dog named Hurley who tried all day to still the show!

Karin Wymer Family Portraits









Karin works with my mom and once again after seeing some other family portraits I did she wanted some of her family. But instead of doing traditional photos I met up with her at her husbands familys home in Haltom City when they were doing Christmas. All the kids had opened gifts and we stepped outside for some large group pictures.

My Family

My family on both sides is extremely close. My dads mom, my granny died young, and so my Aunt, my dads oldest sister kinda was who my dad looked to for his motherly type advice once my granny was gone. Well our families are close and when my cousins wanted to do a huge family portrait session for my Aunt Connie and Uncle Thomas and also for Malcolm and Lynn I was super excited to do them. It was a big hush hush project because the pictures were going to be Christmas gifts so Kim kept everyone on date and we met up at my favorite park in Rockwall and for an hour we just took tons of photos.



On Christmas day the gifts made everyone cry. Plus they made a slideshow and that made everyone cry harder lol. I was glad I could help with such an amazing gift for some amazing members of my family!

Karissa's Bridals and their engagements!


Karissa found me on Craigslist as well I believe and we hit it off right from our first meeting. We did their engagements and her bridals on the same day. We started at the Dallas Arboretum for her bridals and then moved to downtown Dallas for their engagements.

Randi's Family Session


Randi is great, she is the best model when I have a crazy idea and she always makes the photos turn out phenomenal! She wanted some beautiful Christmas family portraits of her amazing little family and I was happy to do them for her!
