A maternity photo shoot can be a lot of things: Sweet. Sexy. Sporty. Fun. Family-oriented. Today I’m sharing photos from a recent Dallas maternity session that manages to be all that and more. This mama-to-be included her elementary-aged daughter as well as her...
Is there anything cuter than newborn girl outfits? I have a son and a daughter and let me tell you, there are so many more options available for baby girls. When I talk to a pregnant mama about her soon-to-be newborn photo session, we always discuss outfits and...
A baby makes love stronger, the days shorter, the nights longer, savings smaller, and a home happier. There’s nothing like it and my work as a Dallas newborn photographer is all about capturing the love. Today, I’m sharing in-house newborn photos of a...
When I was growing up in the 70s and 80s, family photos were synonymous with corporate studios. JCPenney and, here in Dallas, a place called Olan Mills were the place to go. Everybody would dress in their Sunday best, little girls and mom hitting their curls with...
The photo session I’m sharing today is a lot of things: portrait photography. Black and white images. Child photos. Maternity session. But most of all, these are photos that celebrate a family’s love for each other. Because I enjoy poetry, I’d like...
I meet some pretty special wee ones in my work as a Dallas baby photographer. It’s particularly meaningful when I get to work with a family over time, like the one-year baby photos I’m featuring in my blog post today. Last year, I took newborn photos of...
Last week, I shared fun family photos of a family of five, including one-year-old twin boys. This week, it’s twins again with two girls, their parents, and a beautiful day outside. It made me think of the Mother of Twins Prayer, which I’ll share with you:...
I love seeing my clients’ families grow and change, and today I’m sharing a favorite Dallas family of five. A while back, I shared the maternity photos of this mama when she was awaiting the arrival of her sweet twin boys. She looked stunningly beautiful....
Babies are absolutely adorable: so tiny, so squeezy, so kissable. What’s not to love? Many parents want to get professional photos taken of their newborns, and it’s one of my most popular age groups as a Dallas baby photographer. But I love the toddler...
“One of the luckiest things that can happen to you in life is, I think, to have a happy childhood.” —Agatha Christie Truer words were never spoken — a happy childhood is a gift children carry with them their entire lives. It often creates for them a happy...
Autumn is finally here! This is such a nostalgic season when a few flowers are still blooming, leaves on the trees start turning, and we break out our long-sleeve shirts and fall outfits. I’ve gotten in the habit of sharing poems that relate to that week’s...
Deep Ellum photography offers a fun and vibrant alternative for Dallas family photography. This time of year, lots of people want to get outdoors to capture memories as the temperatures cool down. Many choose a local park as a beautiful spot, and that’s a great...
“A daughter is one of the most beautiful gifts this world has to give.” — Laurel Atherton I’ve been working in Dallas newborn photography for over 20 years and no two sessions are ever the same. Every baby has her own personality and every family...

“Making a decision to have a child, it’s momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.” — Elizabeth Stone When women contact me about maternity photos, I love to hear the stories about how they decided to become...
Black and white maternity photography offers a beautiful addition to color images from your photo shoot. Monochrome images (another name for black and white) might seem like an anachronism in our modern age, like watching a silent movie, but in fact, they offer a lot...
How time flies! Last week, I published a post looking at the six month baby photos of one seriously adorable little girl. This week, the one year baby photos of the same girl. She’s still got those killer curls and big, brown eyes. What a cutie. Children are...
One of my favorite parts of being a Dallas baby photographer is the relationships I form with people. An example of that is this week and next week’s blog posts, the six-month baby pictures and one-year baby pictures from a local family. Most parents think of...
If you’re thinking digital images are the way to go after a professional photo session, I encourage you to reconsider. Lots of people imagine their options are greater when they buy digital images and print hard copies/frame on their own. But the opposite is...
