Out for a dew days

Starting tomorrow my husband and I will be super busy with our cousins wedding!
We're super excited and can't wait for all the fun to begin.

After the wedding events end Friday, I'll be right back at it Saturday second shooting for Brandi Tejeda at a wedding in Brenham. I'm looking forward to working with Brandi and will be able to share a few pictures soon.

I should be back to blogging Sunday or soon after!

Have a great weekend!

So Long Kelley....

Kelley (AKA, my cousin "Cuz") is leaving her company of 3 years in Arizona and moving to the great state of COLORADO!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited for her, but jealous at the same time. My dream 'retirement' home is Colorado. The good thing about her move is that I'll get to visit every year. In fact, they are moving to the same area where my other side of the family lives. This is going to be the best vacation spot yet!

I would actually be more depressed if she was moving to Colorado from Texas, so good thing it's from Arizona! I've been trying to convince them for years now to move back to Texas, but as you can see they aren't budging on that one :(....

She asked me to make her a little goodbye card via email, so I put this together with a picture they took from lunch.

Enjoy, Cuz....I Love you and Miss you always!

Haley's 5 year old shoot

Today I had the pleasure of photographing my favorite little cutie pie - Haley! She's turning 5 at the end of the month and Patty wanted to make sure to capture her 5 year old pictures. Haley is too cute and definitely fun to photograph. The 3 of us had a good time today, especially laughing at Haley's funny faces.... (:

Here are a few of my favorites.

Brandi Tejeda Photography Business Logo & a Baby Announcement

I was contacted by Brandi Tejeda, who is also an old friend, to make her Business logo. After several designs, this is the one she chose. Check out her website and blog.

It's been a pleasure working with you Brandi, and I know we'll be talking daily now (:.

Along with working for Brandi, I've been working with my Cousin-in-law, Ashley to design their new baby boys birth announcement. This is still a work in progress, but this is what they like so far

Oil Ranch Grand Opening Pictures

Today my husband and I went to the Oil Ranch, located in Hockley Texas. Lynn, the owner asked me to come and take pictures of the place so she can use them on her website. We had never been or even heard of the Oil Ranch, so we were looking forward to the visit. This is a really cool place to take your kids for a fun, family environment with tons of different things to do.
