Happy Birthday Cameron!

Last night we drove in to Nav to surprise Cameron with a birthday dinner. It was so much fun to see all of his family and friends. We ate, drank and laughed. I love this group of people.

Beautiful

These photos bring tears to my eyes. If you don't already know how special family is, realizing their importance is a tough, tough lesson. I've been slapped in the face over and over again this past year and THANK goodness for it. I have always felt love for my family, but now I love them with my every being. I hope that I spend forever showing each of them how much joy and happiness they bring to my soul.

There are handfuls of precious people that aren't in this photo. We missed you.
My cousins. Oh, Em...you're with us every time we put our arms around one another. Miss you with my everything.
Bebe LOVES babies.

DeeDee & Tim. Real Devotion.Houston Wedding Photographer.

I didn't meet DeeDee and Tim until the day of their wedding. I already knew I liked DeeDee...we'd exchanged many an email. Putting faces to names and witnessing the love they share was fun and such an honor for me. It was so nice to have yet another laid back bride! We literally didn't have to look at the clock for over an hour. I loved this! Thanks Dee. The wedding ceremony was sweet and simple, the bride's face said it all...love comes in the form of friendship and takes you by surprise. Their reception was so much fun to watch! Everyone's face wore a smile and they danced all night. DeeDee, thank you for trusting a complete stranger to photograph such a significant moment in your life. I truly felt as though I was among friends all night and had a wonderful time. I hope that you LOVE these. Here are a few of my faves:

Derrick. Texas Aggie Baseball Recruit. Navasota Photographer.

I've already told both him and his parents, so I might as well share it with the internet. Internet, meet Derrick. I am lucky enough to have been his teacher TWICE: once his sophomore year and now his senior year. Never have I enjoyed a student more! For three years, a hundred students have graced my classroom each day but few have stood out the way that Derrick has. He works his tail off, mostly because he wants to be his best and partially because his Mama wants him to be his best. Derrick is talented, determined, smart, kind, respectful, and sweet -- all at the age of 18. He's a pleasure to be around which is hard to say of many 18 year old guys. I feel blessed to have had him walk into my teaching life. He will be one of those that stands out in my mind when I'm an old woman. Today was a big day in Derrick's life. Today Derrick became the newest member of the Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of '14. He didn't get a letter in the mail though. That would be all too normal for Derrick. Instead, newpapers and tv stations watched as Derrick signed a letter of intent to play baseball for Texas A&M next spring. To say that I am proud of him is an understatement. There are no words. As a teacher, I hope to see all of my students become successful. Few young men are chosen to step out onto Olsen Field...and I have taught one. I have known one. I have watched one mature into an amazingly successful man. Maybe part of my pride is due to the fact that Derrick is my first student to receive such an honor. Maybe my pride is because I'm an Aggie. With all my heart, I'm an Aggie and I understand that becoming an Aggie is the best feeling in the world.

Proud. Proud. Parents.

Yaaaaaaaaaaay! Derrick's an Aggie recruit!

Derrick, Mister Number Eight -I hope that I have made as much of an impact on your life as you have mine. I have had such FUN teaching you...thanks for the millions of yearbook laughs. Know that I am sooooo proud of you and for you and that I am filled with excitement to have a GREAT reason to make trips to Olsen Field. Tell your parents to save us a seat. Love and Luck to you and Gig 'Em!

Cassi & Michael

Because I love them and I love looking at them, I've created a slideshow for Cassi & Michael's wedding.


Without a doubt, the Walkoviak wedding is the BEST work I've ever done, and believe me when I say that I know this is both a God-thing and a bride-thing. Cassi placed her absolute trust in me. While this scared me to death at first, it actually motivated me to document this wedding as I would have documented my very own (if I could have!) I am so grateful to Cassi for her friendship and the amount of faith she placed in me.

Hope that you love it! To see all of their photos and to place orders, please click on the slideshow above or click on Client Proofing in the top right corner. Enter the coupon cassi and you'll receive a discount!
