The Fort Worth Stockyards are such a fun backdrop for an engagement session! Between murals, historic buildings, animals, and huge old oak trees, there's as much variety as you could ever hope for. I would love to shoot there again sometime soon! 
While most photographers seem to shy away from them, I actually love photographing extended family portrait sessions! I love seeing the loving (and often funny) interactions between cousins, siblings, in-laws, and so on. With this particular family group, it helps that I've known some of them all of my life! Chris, one of the thirty-something men in these photos is my big brother's lifelong best friend.
This was such a fun family session at the Heritage Museum in Frisco, Texas! These old homes and other historic buildings always make the perfect outdoor backdrop for portraits. Do you think her sequin horse dress comes in my size?! If so, I need one. 
Caty has been telling me for years that she would one day hire me to photograph her wedding. Mission accomplished! I'm so looking forward to capturing Caty & Will's wedding next year, especially after having so much fun with their engagement session in downtown Denton earlier this month. We wandered the storefronts and alleys around the historic downtown square on a quiet weekday morning, and wandered into Recycled Books (with advance permission) for some fun photos in one of this couple's favorite stores. I don't make it over to Denton for any occasion other than work very often, but next time I'm in the area and have any time to play, I'll definitely be visiting Recycled Books again and leaving with a big haul of new-to-me used books. It had been a while since I'd photographed downtown Denton, and it was nice to get back out there! There are so many great backdrops to work with. I'd love to work there more often.
I love watching this family grow! I've been working with them a few times a year since their eldest turned 1. This was my first time to meet the newest addition, and I'm smitten. He's not camera-shy at all at 6-months-old, and was certainly more on board with the session than his two-year-old big brother! It may seem odd, but toddlers are actually my favorite age group to photograph. Their personalities are huge, and I love capturing that stage. It requires lots of running around in a crouched position and playing peekaboo. This little guy wasn't exactly won over by my charm, but I love the photos of him Not Having Any of This.
