Barnes ~West Texas Family Photographer~

I met Tammy years ago when I saw her at a park with her new twin baby girls. They were about the same age as my baby at the time and I had to talk to her. We've been friends ever since!

Life has gotten pretty busy for the both of us, so it's nice to get to see her and her family now and again - even if it is just for a photoshoot. They were one of my first families to photograph and Tammy gave my name out to anyone looking for a photographer. She is a huge part of getting my business started.

I look back at my early mom years with fond memories because friends like Tammy. I owe you a lot, my friend! Thank you!

Blakely celebrates 6 months!! We had a hard time scheduling this session. The weather was NOT on our side. We finally picked a date and the weatherman was about 15 degrees off and we were FREEZING!! We didn't long and decided to try again another day.

Look how much she's changed?

Those pigtails are just too adorable!

Hudson Turns 6 months ~Lubbock, Texas Baby Photographer~

I get so excited to see my newborns again and this family, I just LOVE!

It's fun to see how much they've changed and how much they've stayed the same over those first few months. I wouldn't have believed it possible, but Hudson may have gotten cuter.

And the fall leaves!! Oh, I love this time of year.

Swart Cousins ~Lubbock, Texas Children's Photographer~

Meet Brooklyn, Lexi, and Jax!!

Lexi and Jax are siblings and Brooklyn is their cousin. It's such a great idea to get the cousins together for a photo session for grandma, don't you think?

Lexi is 12 years old and already a gorgeous young lady.

Brooklyn is 9 years old and has the most darling freckles! Ok, so I'm a little partial to freckled faced little girls.

Jax is 10 months old. I saw him last at his newborn session, so it was fun to see how big and cute he had become.

Harris Twins ~Lubbock, Texas Newborn Photographer~

Meet Jack and Sam . . .

It was a lot of back and forth hoping to get both boys happy at the same time. First the darling Jack . . .

Then, sweet little Sam. . .

Finally, after several hours, we got both boys to sleep at the same time..

I shot this photo about 20 seconds before, mom and dad holding them in place. Less than a minute and they were awake again. It was all I needed.

Sam's thinking of a funny joke, I think.

The precious beginnings of this new family.

Hollis ~Lubbock, Texas Newborn Photography~

Look who's home!!

Hollis was born at 29 weeks and spent the first 3 months of her life in the NICU. To keep all germs away, her big brothers didn't get to meet her until mom was able to bring her home Mother's Day weekend. The boys had no idea the surprise Mom had waiting for them.

First time holding baby sister...

I love how big brother covers little brother's mouth when he starts coughing...

Later that week, Mom brought Hollis over for some newborn photos.

I adore those blonde eyelashes.

Blakely ~Lubbock, Texas Newborn Photographer~

 Lilly did such a great with her new little sister, Blakely! She was very curious as to everything, asking a lot of questions. It was fun having her around. And y'all, don't be shocked, but I'm LOVING these whites and off white.

Since the weather has been warming up, we decided to do their family photos in my backyard.  I may have to do this more often.
