tickles and giggles

Meet the Morales family! I have to admit that I had a really great time shooting this adorable trio. The entire session was filled with laughter and giggles. And I was able to capture the love that this family has for one another through their genuine interactions between each other. Here are some of my favorites!

I just love the way Joey is gazing at Zulma here. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words...







and this is one of my absolute favorites. I love the emotion in this one!



Lots more coming your way soon! Till next time!

Otis and Sally - Part 2

Two weeks ago, we did the urban portion of Otis and Sally's engagement shoot. We had such an awesome time at some of our favorite signature spots as well as several new ones! And in seeing these two interact with one another, I gained a real understanding of the mutual respect and love that they have for one another. Congratulations again! We love you!



Here we are at one of my favorite spots to shoot. You don't know how many requests we get for pictures at this wall! And yes, it really is blue in real life!







We shot the following one in the dugout at the Edinburg Roadrunner's Stadium. Otis played baseball for UTPA all four years of college, so this place holds a special place in his heart.



and last but not least..one of my personal favorites from the bunch...

The RGV Kids Calendar - September

Meet Andrew! He is representing the month of September in the 2010 RGV Kids Calendar. I have to say this is one of my most favorite images from the lot. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE all of them, but there's something about his expression, the sunglasses in his hands, the mood of the clouds and the yellow airplane that are just captivating to me as a whole. Thank you to the McAllen Miller International Airport for allowing us to shoot with their amazing airplanes!
