I’m so excited… I finally got a smiling baby. I know everyone says it is just gas… but I’ve always wanted a smiling baby. It was a good way to end the year. Photographing my favorite - a newborn.
Little Lily wanted to check out what was going on around her. She didn’t want to sleep. So I went ahead and composed a few with her eyes open. For a newborn… she already has her mom’s pretty eyes. You can’t tell in the previews.. but trust me, she does.
It’s been a fun 2007. Thanks to all of you!

I started my day at the Clifton Residence, where I documented Ashley and the girls get ready for the big day. The dress as you can see was beautiful with delicate bead work on the bodice and skirt.
The bride and groom wanted all the photographs taken before the ceremony, so as a photographer I decided to still capture the first time the groom set eyes on the bride in her wedding dress. In the image below, he has just finished saying, "You look GOOD". With a real long inflection on the GOOD.
The guys wore long jackets and cowboy hats. The weather on Saturday prevented us from photographing outside. The winds were cold, brutal and strong. There was no way the girls would go out. But I did take the guys out. The photograph below reminds me of the movie Young Guns (I know I am probably dating myself). I can hear someone screaming REGULATORS in that image.
And I could post so much more… but my competition was there and I don’t want to give her any more ideas.
Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Fuller. It was a privilege to photograph your special day!

You know.. sometimes I have the toughest job (BIG WINK). He had the most incredible piercing blue eyes. Though I know he and his family like black and white…. you just can not escape those eyes.
I hope you like these better than the ones from the other photographer (we won’t mention any names).
I had fun tonight - Good luck at the Texas Bowl!!

I was lucky to have four generations of this family in my studio today. After the family has seen these, i will be sure to post this rare occurance. Family bonds are so special. When I listened to the two sisters interact above - I couldn’t help but think of my own sister. To see the four generations in front of me was really so special and touching. I especially loved the interaction with the great grandmother and baby. It just really touched my heart!!
I hope you like the preview.. that is one cute baby!!

The studio will be closed for the next three days so that I can go learn some new stuff!! I’m super excited to be taking an intensive three day workshop from a nationally recognized photographer. I’ll be back in the studio on Wednesday, December 19th. I will be arriving early to package up all those last minute orders for you to pick up. I’ll give everyone a call as soon as I am done with your orders!
Be Good!!
