They celebrated their nuptials at the gorgeous open air event center, <a href="www.laplacitapharr.com">La Placita</a> . It was such a heart-felt ceremony and I have to admit that I got teary-eyed more than a couple of times. <br /><br />Here's a glimpse into their special day....<br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4074/4792665760_119994caa6_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4082/4792665916_d42f279e17_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4115/4792032107_178aba9591_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4117/4792666192_afbf359b74_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4119/4792666278_d7267c5eb0_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4098/4792032465_e194dcaa7a_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4118/4792666658_3c86f0bbe1_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4116/4792666920_3b27d618a6_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4122/4792667052_09b9d6461b_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4141/4792033171_3340d958e1_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4139/4792033371_bbb9fbb8c5_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4097/4792667510_bd309f3c61_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4080/4792033793_65a3b2d915_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4094/4792032729_7cc985775e_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4120/4792667864_02551c2abe_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4095/4792034157_642730c8b4_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4100/4792034347_86c02ccdff_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4095/4792668712_899bffe105_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4141/4792034965_5789983f1b_b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4118/4794936557_1f043b4559_b.jpg"><br /><br />-LizbethSignature Collections Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08332078971939447028noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6854799567975657835.post-32731684663880116302010-06-22T23:17:00.004-05:002010-06-22T23:51:38.383-05:00the Guevara'sMeet the beautiful Guevara family! I first photographed this bunch a little over two years ago when they were expecting their first bundle of joy.

This session was so much fun. Not only was it our first session shooting together since last summer, but it took place at sunny South Padre Island. It meant so much that Carmen and Danny chose us to capture their beautiful family and it felt so good to be back at Omar's side, doing what we both love. Here are some of my favorites!

It was an honor when I was called upon Liz and Jeremy to capture their beautiful daughter, Gabriela. <br /><br />Baby Gabriela is a true angel from God. She was born with a condition called Zellweger Syndrome. And for the past seven months, she has been defying all prognosis. Through amazing strength, love and faith by many friends and family members, baby Gabriela continues to amaze us every day.<br /><br />Not a day goes by that I don't think of her. And I feel truly blessed to have been able to capture the adoring love that Liz and Jeremy have for her.

At just twelve days old, she was as tiny and as cute as can be. I'm not going to lie, she made me work for every image I got. She fought me on every hand, foot, finger and toe that I tried to move.

Just thirteen days old and oh so sweet! This little one put up a fight in the beginning. My studio was just too interesting to go to sleep! But once he did, he did not wake up through the rest of the entire session. I must have tired him out because he did great.<br /><br />So here he is in all of his sweetness! Oh, and check out the head of hair.

Meet Eric and Chelsea! They are one of the cutest and tallest couples I've met!! They both must be over six feet tall! You can imagine, at 5'-3", how short I felt standing next to them both and Omar, my 6'-4" tall husband at their clothing consultation. Ah, but alas, we can't all be super-model tall in this world :)<br /><br />Here are a few of my favorites from their shoot!

They were so happy and I could see the love they shared for one another in every glance and embrace. It was a very endearing and sweet session. Carlos had Elizabeth laughing throughout the entire session. I have no idea what he was whispering in her ear, but I got some very genuine moments out of them. Here are just a few of my favorites.

She is a true icon in the world of newborn photography. From her amazing newborn posing, to her flawless editing, I admire every aspect of her work. This past weekend, I had the privilege of attending one of her baby posing classes in her hometown of Omaha, Nebraska. I, along with fourteen other photographers, experienced first hand, the amazing ability and precise technicality of both Kelley Ryden and her sister, Tracy Raver. It was an experience I will never forget! <br /><br />Here are a few images that I captured during the workshop!<br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4053/4477657113_2b44f43c2b.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2736/4478281140_5b47146ee3.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4022/4477656937_b1a17fd200.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4041/4477656847_7f38f4179a.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4002/4477656261_9e13306a07.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2696/4478280840_8d125892d9.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4055/4477656613_c7e3c99a6a.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4010/4477656379_a7a38182ed.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2739/4478280594_74d1ee4151.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2804/4478280252_1df0163f8b.jpg"><br /><br />-LizbethSignature Collections Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08332078971939447028noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6854799567975657835.post-63824588819281818092010-03-21T22:05:00.002-05:002010-03-21T22:24:56.530-05:00Kamila's Urban ShootNext month, we will be shooting the 15th birthday celebration of Kamila. She is one of the sweetest, and coolest teenagers you will ever meet. Last week, we took her out for an urban shoot. She was such an amazing sport.

Especially me. This was the wedding of my little sister Sally. It was very difficult for me to shoot this wedding because I was emotionally attached. It was hard shooting through the blurry view finder because of watery eyes. I almost broke down during the father and daughter dance. All I could think about is my little Bella getting married. I am excited to have gained a little brother in all this. Otis is a good man and I am sure he will be a great husband to my sister and a great father to their children. Here are a few images of their wedding day.<br /><br />-Omar<br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2778/4442630150_7e7ccd8470_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4017/4442630262_c0d51741ba_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4024/4442630452_ce8b901496_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2727/4442630890_903356e01f_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2681/4442630616_d7ffaeddb8_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4021/4441850773_ee45cefbf1_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2684/4442630978_655fefeacb_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4068/4442631200_98933222a5_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2732/4442631120_ae5526a17b_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4020/4442631408_991c53553d_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4035/4441851703_27f72c7aac_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4026/4442632004_4e31c8a8ca_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2685/4441851839_c721df44ce_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2734/4441851999_6eb5df8f40_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4067/4441852229_9c8143a3a9_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2753/4441852349_d61be6a414_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4025/4442632296_1e0a617312_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4062/4442632432_2b6b188f99_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2692/4442632518_c4b50d56c1_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4006/4441852787_5db738c11d_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4035/4441852883_dd8d8f4bba_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4048/4441853053_6a903bfe3e_o.jpg">Signature Collections Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08332078971939447028noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6854799567975657835.post-17509399455223743222010-03-08T18:08:00.003-06:002010-03-08T18:14:42.363-06:00Sally's Bridals...We shot the amazing wedding of Otis and Sally this past weekend. But before we post images from their special day, we want to share a few of Sally's bridals with you. <br /><br />She really loved the rustic feel found within some of our images, so we took her to some of our favorite rustic locales. Here are some of my favorites...<br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2695/4418634968_df62e3543f_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4052/4417868129_67435a55d2_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4002/4417867939_aa1fa05b47_o.jpg"><br /><br />and here is her absolute favorite!

Meet Lyra and David. They are truly one of the sweetest couples you will ever meet. I had an amazing time photographing their excitement, happiness and love they share for their soon-to-arrive bundle of joy. (We really have the most wonderful clients in the world!) We started off in the studio and then went outdoors for a little colorful fun. Here are some of my favorites!<br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4007/4404912875_c461c55356_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4068/4405675440_1fb90b93a1_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4037/4405676238_66b57505c3_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4053/4404913445_6e897ddd4e_o.jpg"><br /><br />-LizbethSignature Collections Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08332078971939447028noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6854799567975657835.post-21145348488379889812010-03-01T23:17:00.003-06:002010-03-01T23:27:31.856-06:00meant the world to me...Meet the Anderson family! I was so humbled when they contacted me to photograph their newest bundle of joy, Owen. Not only because this would be their second session with me, but because they were willing to drive all the way from Houston down to the valley just for the session. It really meant the world to me. And I hope that the moments we captured that Sunday morning will be cherished by their family for a lifetime. Here are a few sweet moments from their session. Enjoy...<br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4065/4399888745_bd0a080547_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4002/4399888559_4970cbdbec_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4011/4400654796_cb73fbaed3_o.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4022/4400654598_a0c5f3493f_o.jpg"><br /><br />-LizbethSignature Collections Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08332078971939447028noreply@blogger.com0
