The Beautiful Brown Family

What a beautiful family. It wasn't so much the posed shots that I enjoyed the most from this family, but rather the moments at which their genuine love for one another spilled out as they played and laughed together.

Courtnee's Sweet Downtown Senior Shoot

Adrian and that Cold-Blooded Fedora Hat [Senior Photo Shoot]

A few weeks ago, I met Adrian at a coffee shop in Deep Ellum for his senior shoot. As he began to unload his car with the clothes he'd chosen for his shoot, I realized that he has a great sense of style! Enjoy these shots of Adrian and his cold-blooded Fedora.

 

The "Take Back Your Body Challenge" is a 12 week program designed to inspire and encourage individuals to fitness! Each week a hard working participant will win a cash prize by losing the most weight that week. In addition to the weekly prize, the person to lose the most weight total by the end of the competition wins a free "My New Body!" photo shoot to show off that new fabulous body!

The Spunky, Sassy, Sharp, & Sophisticated Chelsea Bedford

It's rare that I run across a student as sharp as Chelsea. From the moment she contacted me about her senior photos, I could see Chelsea's strong sense of direction and identity. She had a game plan for her senior photo shoot. Creative ideas flowed off her brain as she told me what she wanted to accomplish. Equipped with a colorful collection of Hollister® shirts, a sassy 1920s inspired dress, and all the Juicy Couture® you could ask for, we hit the streets of Downtown Dallas for a senior shoot unlike any I've done to date.
