Aiden!

This sweet boy is Aiden. We had so many ideas for him and he was such a trooper and smiled the entire shoot and through many clothing changes!

He also did this thing when he was on his back and smiling he would clutch his chest. Too adorable!



He wasn't quite sitting up unassisted when we did this shoot. I love this image because he was starting to fall and his mom grabbed for him and he never stopped smiling because he knew she'd catch him!

Matching feet!

Of course he needs to grow up an be an Aggie!

Next we went to the George Bush library to do some shots of Aiden fishing. Aiden's parents were married at the Library (under the gazebo)! Apparently you can't reserve it for weddings but if you show up you can use it. Bizarre and awesome, right?









Next up we shot Aiden at a Ford dealership because his Daddy loves Fords. Isn't he the cutest little truck model?

Jaxson

This sweet little man is Jaxson, he got pretty much the last bluebonnet shoot of the season.
Isn't he a lovebug?

His mom had read the part of my website about bringing things your child loves and came prepared! It was awesome!



Apparently Jax also really likes to fish the lemon out of water glasses when they go out to eat so we also go some pictures of him with some lemons.



Then we headed to the main area of the Bush library to shoot him and came across a proposal ( Bush at that time of year is THE place to propose apparently) This girl was in the same battalion as the young man about to get engaged and was helping set up the scene. She also agreed to pose for a picture with Jaxson and he was completely enamored with her!

Jaxson and his mommy. Props to Kristi for not planning on being on any pictures and yet still looking amazing.





Apparently Jaxson has a thing for Michael Jackson so when he was getting fidgety at the end of the shoot we put a little Michael Jackson on the phone and it left him entranced long enough to get a family shot or two!

Claudia

The first teenager I shot in College Station, was the lovely Claudia so I was delighted to do her senior portraits as well. She had the most lovely eyes! Although, i'm not really sure what color they are...teal? Golden? Hazel? All of the above?





Claudia's going to be an Aggie! Whoop!

We did a few with her boyfriend Jacob as well.

Jackson Bump Pictures!

I did a really fun maternity session with a couple who is about to add a Jackson to their family!

I think this picture is so fun, it's Meredith's view of her baby bump and other people's view. (We can see her feet, a feature that I understand is a bit hard to do when you're 8 month pregnant.)



This picture cracks me up because fur baby Gracie looks a little grumpy about being replaced!









This picture amuses me because in ten years Jackson will be looking at this picture and thinking, "Wow, mom really had a dinosaur for a phone!"

Reese, Sloane and Cohen

It started raining during this shoot, and since we were at the Bush Library, we ran under the gazebo and waited out the mini-storm and then continued on with our shoot. College Station is certainly giving me experience with different types of shoot conditions! This family were a bunch of troopers and we got some great shots despite how sticky and warm it got after the rain!

Here's an interesting fact about an older group of siblings, if there is one child that's going to be into posing and so very willing to please, it's going to be the oldest child. Interesting right? This is the eldest of this bunch of kids, Reese, and she was a great little model for me :)

This is probably one of my favorite jumping shots yet. Look at that form! Somebody get this girl into dance classes!

This sweet girl is Sloane, isn't she adorable?



Last but not least is Mr. Cohen.



Since it was so hot we cooled off at the end of the shoot in the fountain.
