Stella

Last weekend while in New Orleans, I also had the pleasure to take Stella's Christmas pictures. Her mommy and daddy are our family friends, so we were sooo excited to hang out with her while she let us take her pictures. She is such a happy child and I have to say was the easiest photo session I have ever had. Sorry Scarlett it took me so long to get these up!

Here is Stella telling me to tickle Scarlett with the flower

This is Stella's little dance after I did tickle Scarlett. She is such a fun child!

Talia's 1 Yr session

This weekend I also took my niece's 1 yr old pictures. We were in City Park, taking pictures of Little Stella, (pics to come soon), so we took Talia's pictures there also.

I love the cake pictures. I told my sister we had to do these, I think before she was even born. So, it was a must! Talia did pretty well with it. She just ate the icing, but she had a good time with it. Look at her cute smile.

Sean's SR. pictures

Here are a few pictures from my nephew Sean's SR. portrait session this wknd. We went to River Town again, in Louisiana. This time, I found a few more locations that I had not spotted before. I love this area! I was really excited when we found this old run-down Ice house.  enjoy!

Fall spectaular

If you are in Texas, I am available Halloween weekend and the 21st of November.   This would be a great time to get those long awaited family portraits done or take Christmas pictures. I also photograph newborns and children.

CS4 seminar

Monday I will be attending a CS4 workshop in Austin and I am so excited I can't speak! Granted I am still working off of CS2, but I plan on getting the new upgrade VERY soon. My co-worker, and a friend of mine will be making that back-roads trip to Austin on Monday, and it will be an all day event. We will going to classes on all of the applications included in the creative suite! So, hopefully I can take a turn for the better on some of my photo editing.

FYI.....
I will be having some holiday specials coming up soon! be sure to let me know if you would like fall/holiday picutres taken.

my new favorite blog

I can not explain how much I love this blog called "bakerella". My co-worker Heather told me about it and now I am hooked. she makes AMAZING cakes and anything you can bake and tells you how to make it yourself. LOVE IT! One post that I was reading she made a"Doberge" cake. I sooo miss my Doberge cakes from New Orleans and I was just talking about making one, when I saw her post. I want to attempt to make this cake and lots of other items on her menu. So be on the lookout for more food and recipe related posts.

she also made some some cake pops that I am going to attempt to make. Here's how cute they look.

Now if I can only get my kitchenaid mixer, life would be so much easier to bake. (giggling) My poor Hubby, I get to bake for fun and he has to eat all the goodies after I am done.

The Funky Cheveux

Friday I took photos for my new hair salon the "Funky Cheveux". These ladies are soo fun and I had a great time shooting their new pictures for their studio and website. Priscilla is the owner (she did my new hair) and she was such a blast to work with! here is a sneak peak at a few of the pictures!
