Christmas Cutie {Ft. Worth/Dallas Baby Photographer}

Melissa — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 23:04:22 +0000

Miss Lila is back for her 6mo photoshoot. I met her at her house to include some of their Christmas Decor. We also did some traditional 6mo photos as well. She did great and was full of smiles, especially when her dady was singing to her. We had a blast and got alot of great photos. I can’t wait to see her again soon.

Fun in Leaves { Ft. Worth/Dallas Childrens Photographer }

Melissa — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 15:07:03 +0000

I always try to take some pictures of my boys in the leaves when they change colors. Unfortunatly our trees did not survive a bug they got this summer and we didn’t have hardly any leaves as we normally do. So on my way to take Ian to pre-k one day I spotted a tree with lots of beautiful yellow leaves close to the ground in a field. I ran home got Brax dressed and we had a photo play date, just the 2 of us. I got alot of great shots and even one of Brax giving me a face squeeze kiss as his daddy calls it. Then on the way home from getting Ian from school we stopped again to get a few of Ian and them together. It was much cooler then so I didn’t get as many. But I love the ones I did get. I miss the leaves in our own backyard, but I’m glad I found some pretty and close to home.

Dirt Brothers {Ft. Worth Childrens Lifestyle Photographer}

My boys love dirt. And this summer they have gone crazy with it. Since it’s so dry, we have a few dirt patches in our backyard and that’s all they want to do outside is play in the dirt. Brax is obsessed with it and gets super dirty multiple times a day. Ian will usually only go out there in the evening when it’s “alittle” cooler. Since it was almost bath time, I took their shirts off and tried to capture them in the moment being dirty boys. Of coarse they decided to show off instead and be silly. I might try again and be more sneaky with the camera. But I still love these anyways.

Happy 4th of July {Ft. Worth Lifestyle Photographer}

Melissa — Mon, 04 Jul 2011 18:18:26 +0000

We celebrated the 4th of july last night at my Aunt and Uncle’s house. Everyone had a blast. Good food, water guns, cute tiny puppy, basketball and of coarse fireworks. Today we’ll be celebrating at my moms pool and then watching the local fireworks show. Lots of fun this weekend. I already can’t wait till next year.

Color Cousins {Ft. Worth Childrens Photographer}

I was at JoAnns the other day and saw that the color bubbles were 60% off. So we got a few bottles and had my niece and nephew join in the fun this time. My niece loved it. She colored her brother and Ian all green to be the hulk and didn’t want to wash the colors off. She’s really into art so I had a feeling she would love it. My boys had fun as usual painting themselves and each other.

Downtown Baby {Dallas Lifestyle Childrens Photographer}

Melissa — Thu, 23 Jun 2011 15:02:09 +0000

Meet McCartney, Sam and Jason. I met them at their apartment in Deep Ellum for a lifestyle session. McCartney is about 7mo old, a great age for portraits. Sitting up really good, but not quite crawling yet. She did awesome. So happy and full of smiles. The original plan was to explore Deep Ellum a bit, but it was just way too hot. So we took some outside in their courtyard and then quickly went back inside where it’s was cool. I had a great time and hope to see you guys again soon.

Color Me {Ft. Worth Childrens Photographer}

Melissa — Sat, 11 Jun 2011 22:11:13 +0000

I had seen another photographers pics of her kids playing with colored bubbles and it looked like alot of fun. When I showed Ian, he had to have them. So we made a quick trip to Target to pick some up. I knew they were very messy so I had them play with them in the pool. Once they figured out they could just paint with them that’s all they did. They had a blast and I got some cool pics. They loved to paint themselves and each other. And surprisingly it all washed off easily. Ian’s already asking to get some more. Maybe we’ll get different colors next time.

Mud {Ft. Worth/Dallas Childrens Photographer}

Melissa — Mon, 23 May 2011 01:43:43 +0000

My hubby took Ian on the go-cart to play in the mud. I knew they would be dirty, but I was surprised by how muddy they actually got. I had taken my camera outside to take some pics of brax when they pulled up. So I began snapping away to document their mud adventure. They both can’t wait to do it again.

Pretty Lashes {Ft. Worth Childrens Photographer}

Melissa — Sat, 07 May 2011 00:38:17 +0000

Just a few random images of my boys including their pretty eye lashes. As the weather warms up we spend more and more time outside and that means I have my camera ready to capture my boys being boys. Helping daddy work on the house with tools and just being cute.

Snow Day+Cabin Fever {Ft. Worth/Dallas Childrens Photographer}

Melissa — Sat, 05 Feb 2011 02:52:14 +0000

So after being stuck inside for a few days with all the ice and snow, we finally ventured out today to play in it. We were all getting cabin fever pretty bad. The boys loved it. And daddy had fun with the go-cart too. I just took pictures. I love to look at snow, but not really play in it. I did enjoy documenting the boys adventures though. But I’m ready for it to be dry and alittle warmer. I’ve had to reschedule a few sessions and hope not to have to reschedule them again. I mean it’s february…..it shouldn’t be snowing! But since it’s here we might as well try to enjoy it.
