Texas weather is so unpredictable. These kids engagement session was set for last weekend but we rescheduled it to yesterday because of the weather. So I wake up in the morning and it’s a beautiful blue sky without a trace of a cloud! Then all of a sudden that Texas winter starts to creep in, and before we know it it’s completely overcast.  Normally this makes me sad; but Nicola and Jason literally turned on the heat last night so we didn’t need the sun!

I am SO incredibly grateful for SO many things this year! My wife for being so patient, my son for teaching me lessons, my parents for raising me to believe I could do anything, all my couples who have trusted me to document their weddings, DJ for showing me where the door to opportunity was, all of my clients from SMD who trust me with their web presence, and way way more than I could ever possibly put into one blog post.

We outsource our album designs now to folks who have a stronger passion for it than I do.  I mean I love taking pictures, but putting together an album….eh….I’ll leave it to the professionals. I started using Moka Album Design for our albums and they ROCK it! Totally recommended if you are looking to outsource your wedding album designs (which I totally think all photographers should do).  If it costs more (in time) for you to design the album yourself, then it needs to be outsourced to someone who can do it for less.

Before flying back to TX on Tuesday, I met up with Jennifer and her family for their 4th Life session! Along with the Volkers, I’ve been photographing these guys for years! Julia is getting SO big! She still has a mind of her own and will having nothing to do with the camera. Ryan is of course as cute as always! Here are a few of my favs from Monday evenings session.

While in FL, I met up with Ashley and her family for their 3rd Lifestyle session! I’ve been photographing these guys for years now! It’s so cool to be able to watch these kids grow up! Here are a few of my favs. Lot’s more on my Facebook page.
