New Family Portrait Style - "Real Family"

We now offer a different type of family session. Our Real Family session is a black background with dark clothing. All the posing is close and intimate focusing on the family itself, not the background or props. I recently did one of these session with my mother-in-law and all her grandchildren. Some of you may know she has brain cancer and we don't know how much time we have left with her. So these portraits were very important for me to have for my children when they get older (read note at bottom of this thread).

Here are a couple from that session.





And here is a family that had the Real Family session this week. These portraits make a stunning collection when grouped together on one wall with similar or same frames. Call us today for more info if you are interested in one of these session - 979.848.8400.







** If you or someone you know is terminally ill and you would like to capture these last few moments of your family together, please give us a call, we have a special program just for you.**

My New Muse

According to Websters Dictionary:

muse - a source of inspiration.

I have found my muse. It's the second time I've had the privilege of photographing this cutie. She never really smiles but I always fall in love with her! Sometimes parents are disappointed that we don't catch the real smiles (sometimes any smiles) from their little ones, but their honest, natural expressions are priceless and capture their personality. Here once again is Ava.



By the way, for all other at this Portrait Party, your sessions should be finished later on this evening.
