So, I've abandoned all fantasies of catching up on my blog. Instead, I'm going to try to keep fairly current at least! lol
If you didn't know it, I was born in Del Rio, Texas. In fact, all of my father's side of the family still lives there. I don't visit as often as I should but I was ecstatic when my beautiful cousin Karla informed me that she was getting married and wanted lil' ole ME to be her photographer. So last month, I made the 4 hour drive to Del Rio to meet the lucky guy and snap some engagements of them. Karla and I are only like a month apart and grew up very close. We used to love to spend summers together so getting to hang out was an added bonus to doing the job I love so much! Not to mention Jaime is just perfectly charming and wonderful in every way. I'm so happy for these 2 good lookin' kids and can't wait for the big day! What a gorgeous bride you will make my dear! <3>
When Nina called and said she wanted me to photograph her wedding and bridal portraits I was ecstatic! I've known Nina a few years and I was so glad to be a part of her special day. Even more excited that she finally found her prince charming! We took these back in July and had a great time. Her mom came to help us out with all the fluffing of the dress and hair and what not too. I had offered to help Nina with her makeup but when she arrived she looked so beautiful I assumed she had already done her makeup. As we got to shooting, she made a comment asking if I had forgotten about makeup. "no, it's in my car, I assumed you didn't need help anymore since you already have it done". I died of shock when she responded. "I don't have any makeup on" she said. Whhhhhhhhhhhat!??! You mean to tell me you are just that beautiful naturally!?!?! That's right, this gorgeous bride doesn't have a stitch of makeup on in her bridals and looks fantastic!
I was super excited to meet little miss Khloey & her sweet parents for her first birthday shoot. We started out with some family pics and some traditional portraits before moving on to her cake smashing fun! She was such a sweetie pie! Oddly cooperative for a 1 year old! We got some great shots of that precious smile of hers. I hope to see them again to see how this little darling grows.
Khloey wasn't too sure about her cake at first but with a little help from mom finally dug in! (cake also by ME)
