…just because…

…I pride myself in being positive & I do not have the heart to leave that depressing post up as the first one you drop in on all weekend. This little face is way more fun. Taken yesterday. During our girls day. A rare serious moment between our tickles & giggles & game of peekaboo....

mama the night owl | how to survive

Ok. So if you follow me on facebook, you know that I often update at 2am. I am crazy like that. My brain doesn’t start really going until about 10pm…& my productive (for-mama-only) hours are 10pm-2am. You read that right. That is my very precious chunk of the day when everyone is sleeping & I...

Ask for forgiveness. Not permission. | San Antonio Family Photographer

Joy. Bliss. Emotion. That was her dream session. She wanted her family captured in the moment. She wanted to be in FRONT of the lens instead of behind it.
