the priest family | weatherford photographer

When I booked this family session, I had no idea that I actually knew them (the daughter emailed me via her married name...) They are from my hometown, which is one of those towns where everyone knows everyone.  I also was unaware of just how much they had going on in their lives as a family.  Their story is theirs to tell, not mine, but I can tell you that I am inspired by their love and courage.

It was wonderful seeing you guys  Love and laughter always come through in photographs, and you guys have both in abundance ~ thanks for letting me share in that for the evening.

It took us awhile to get this session to come together... like months!!!  Originally scheduled for during the Fall we had to postpone due to sick kids, crazy schedules and the holidays.  And then we had to make a last minute change of location ~ what more could go wrong, lol!  But these guys didn't let it get to them, we finally met up and got their family pictures.  You gotta love a family that just rolls with the punches - not to mention having some of the cutest boys around.

Just love those cheeks... from the very first time I met Aiden when he was a hand full of days old, he has been the sweetest little guy.  And soooo quiet!!!  He just sits there and looks at me and gives me that big ole' smile he has.  I can not believe he is ONE ~ time flies by so fast.  Happy Birthday Aiden, it's been wonderful getting to share in this first year of your life with you!

Look at all these girls will ya?!?  I thought having three daughters was a handful, lol!
The Holder Family is a big one ~ but the more people in a family the more love to go around, the more laughs, the hugs & kisses.  And my time spent with the Holder Family was fun, the girls were ready to have a good time and mom & dad I'm sure were happy to have their girls smiling and having fun together.  Thank you Holder Family ~ it was a pleasure meeting you guys :)

karter | weatherford, tx photographer

Karter is sooooo stinkin' cute.  Love that strawberry blonde hair and his great big eyes.
I can't believe how much he has grown... One of the things I love most about this job is watching babies grow from newborn to big kids.  Karter had some pretty cool threads, but I think my fav from his session are the shorts & no tee look (and who doesn't love a guy in shades?!?)

the denham family | weatherford, tx photographer

So, I may be bias here, but these guys are gorgeous ~ don't you agree?!?  As always I got the cutest expressions from the Denham kiddos.  They are always so happy, and freely give those scrunched up nose smiles of theirs which I am totally addicted to!  Mom & Dad are lookin' pretty sharp as well (as usual!)

the mastersons | mineral wells photographer

Fifty years seems like a really long time... but when you are spending that time with the one you love most, well then you know what they say:  "Time flies by when you are having fun!"  The Mastersons are fast approaching their 50th wedding anniversary.  Throughout their session they laughed and enjoyed just the time spent together; proving love can last forever!   Congratulations you two ~ and thank you for letting me be a part of your celebration :)

austin, toni & nicholas | weatherford, tx photographer

These three were the sweetest family... truly enjoyed my evening with them!
And although you can not tell AT ALL... this little family is about to grow :)  How exciting that in the not so far off future these guys will be a party of FOUR.  I just know that Nicholas is going to be a great big brother.  And Austin & Toni are adoring and affectionate parents, so their baby is blessed with a wonderful family.  Congrats guys ~ looking forward to the maternity session!!!

brittany | fort worth photographer

Brittany is/was a Senior this year... congratulations on your graduation missy!!!
She is as much fun as she is pretty.  I totally enjoyed the couple of hours I spent with her and her mom during her session.  Brittany is so NOT shy, she has an amazing smile, and I dare say she comes across as a little bit ornery, she is definitely no wall flower!!!  I wish you the best of luck Brittany!

laykin | weatherford, tx photographer

So... what do you do when you have 2 really cute ideas for your kiddo's 2nd birthday photography session?!?  Well, you do BOTH!!!  This little guy is as adorable as they come.  I LOVE his cheeks and his great big smile... and he never fails to give me a good tongue stickin' out picture every time I see him :)   I really loved both the ideas mom had for his session ~ love the fun of Dr Suess... and really loved how silly he was wearing his Cat in the Hat hat.  We also did a throwback type session... although I do believe Laykin was more interested in poking the cane pole in the water than anything else, lol!  Happy birthday little guy ~ hope it is as much fun as you are!
