Abby and Michael


Bella Notte was the venue selected by Abby and Mike for their wedding and reception. Bella Notte means attractive night in Italian and what a beautiful evening it was! No flowers for this bride, she joined the hot new trend of using feathers. Her mother and aunt made all the bouquets out of peacock feathers. Easy and stress free was the goal for this wedding and it worked! Abby was cool as a cucumber on her wedding day. A guitarist played during the dinner and a delicious cake was served complimented by an awesome hot chocolate bar. The atmosphere was light and romantic.

Sweet Shelby


It is always fun for us to be the first to take professional photographs of a newborn baby. Shelby along with her parents, Robert and Kelly with big sister Emily came to visit our home studio. Shelby is a sweet bundle of joy that liked to have her clothes "on". Naked was not her favorite part of the session! Robert holding his tiny newborn in his big "football player" hands made for some great pictures. Enjoy viewing our session with this 2 week old baby.

Amanda and Jarrett get married in Tomball


It is the ultimate compliment when we are selected to photograph a wedding based on the experience of another couple. Thanks to Lindsay and Lewis for the referral! We traveled to La Tranquila Ranch in Tomball for Amanda and Jarrett’s wedding. Black, red and white were the colors of day. Amanda spiced up her look with some very cute red shoes. This is one of our first couples that elected to see each other before the ceremony. We put Jarrett in position then brought Amanda to him. It helped to make the moment special for them. The venue is surrounded by water, in Houston that means misquotes, and lots of them. Mark digitally removed hundreds that swarmed the groomsmen during the formal photo session! The reception featured good food, yummy cake, lots of dancing, very sweet toasts and the bride and groom departing to a massive shower of birdseed.

Shannon and Michael's Beautiful Creation



We were in the Houston area for a wedding and were able to squeeze in a photo session with two month old Kaelan. We set up a very make shift studio on the buffet tables at the wedding venue! Shannon is Vicki's second cousin once removed, so that means little Kaelan is the newest member of the family. Shannon and Michael own Paper So Pretty in Houston. They have the most awesome cards and invitations. You can visit their website at http://www.papersopretty.com/. We had such a fun time with Kaelan. He is just starting to hold his head up. His eyes are so dramatic. I predict a ladies man in the future. You can just feel the love and joy that Shannon and Michael have for this little guy. Congratulations to the new Mom and Dad.  See all of his photo session at http://www.photoreflect.com/pr3/thumbpage.aspx?e=5732111. Enjoy.

Meet William!


Less than three weeks old and precious! Mark and I had an awesome time photographing this beautiful baby boy. The wonderful sweet smell of a newborn and the soft wrinkly skin simply warms your heart. We have been selected to capture William’s first year and are looking forward to watching him grow and change. Babies are such a nice way to start people!
