{Limited Edition} Campfire Mini Session | The Woodlands Tx | Family and Child Photography | Holiday Mini Session

Fall is here in The Woodlands, TX and I am so excited to be sending out my first set of mini session galleries to all of the wonderful new clients, and of course my existing treasures! Meeting your family and having the opportunity to watch the grown is one of my greatest joys in life. The holidays always bring new faces and old favorites so I like to keep things exciting!! The Fall mini sessions I offer are a more traditional portrait that encapsulates the loving bond between your family without the distraction of an elaborate set or props. Shortly after I do always promise a fun styled set for the littles and I am happy to present that to you today! This year's theme is a warm and cozy campfire complete with sweet treats and rustic props. These are best suited for toddlers through young children and will take place in The Woodlands. The set is rustic with dark stained wood tones and red plaid decor. Warm blankets and a rustic bench with a fun reindeer friend, a joyful horn, and sleigh bells. There will be marshmallows, milk chocolate and graham crackers for the children (and parents!) to enjoy and incorporate into some fun images. I do want to note that safety is always of my utmost concern and there is NO FIRE on set, this is enhanced in post processing- but the children have fun helping me collect logs for the "campfire" and pretending to roast their marshmallows on long sticks. Dates and packages will be listed and updated as they become booked. Message me via the contact form or directly to BLetsos@uspluslove.com with your time and package preference for booking. A 50% retainer is required to hold your space on the calendar and balances will be sent 1 week before the session and due 48 hours prior.

The Woodlands | Family Photographer | Belden Family at Kleb Woods Nature Preserve in Tomball, TX

Every year on Mother's Day I invite you all to tag a wonderful Mom who deserves to win a free family session. This year our winner was the lovely Danielle and her sweet family. I am so glad her dear friend thought to tag this stunning lady because her graceful spirit warmed my heart this instant we spoke about styling her sunset family portrait session. We chose a fun new location that I had yet to explore and it proved to be lovely with lush green foliage , rustic barn backdrops and some quaint little historical homes as well. Mom choose a color palate of deep blues and lighter aquas that poped against the more natural colors like green and brown that the location provided. The shutters on one of the little house were even painted blue- how perfect! Below I have shared some of my favorite images from this shoot and I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I have. If you are interested in your own family portrait session, I am booking into this Fall and would love to have you!! Have a look at the pricing guide and contact me if you have any questions at all- I am here to walk you through every step of your heirloom portrait experience. We're also on #instagam

Senior Portrait Session | 2016 Senior Model Emily | The Woodlands, TX Portrait Photography

Working with seniors is always a fun and rewarding experience. This year I wanted to start off the year with an amazing team of senior representatives that were outgoing and engaging, so I put out a model call on my facebook page. One of my regular clients quickly tagged Emily and I couldn't be more thrilled that we were able to work together. Her mother Melinda and I discussed all of the details and I was happy to find out that I seemed to have found the perfect candidate for my program this year. I developed a point system that rewards you for interacting on social media outlets like facebook and instagram. You'll also earn big points for any direct referrals from your friends or family! These points will translate into monetary credits that you can use toward digital files, graduation cards, or any of the professionally printed products I offer. Did I mention that your *entire* session fee is also waived?  I always have some extra outfits and accessories available to look through and choose from. You are welcome to bring all of your own styling- but I do like to give a few fun extras you might not have thought about. We were honored to have Paulina with Luca-Love Bracelets stop in and provide some extra styling as well. I want my senior girls to feel as beautiful as they are- professional hair & make up is provided for every session! Cristina is my Go-To girl for enhancing their best features while staying age appropriate. The outpouring of tears when Emily saw her look completed speaks volumes. I think we all shed a tear when she couldn't hold hers back. Just me? :) It made my heart very happy to see that she felt so beautiful and I could not wait to get her on location at the gorgeous spot I had chosen for her here in The Woodlands, TX. When scouting I immediately thought this would make a great Senior Spot. The light during her sunset portrait session was absolutely breathtaking and made for a lovely, warm backdrop. This location provides an amazing set of steps, a modern pergola with tons of vines and greenery, some great colored backdrops and more! Emily was a natural in front of the camera and we had a great time working through poses. I've compiled my favorites for you to enjoy- and I hope that you do!! 

Mommy and Me | The Woodlands, TX | Family Photography

As a mother of three, one of my absolute favorite types of sessions to book are the oh so special Mommy and Me portraits! These are the images that will document the everlasting love you have for your children, and the love they have for you in return. When photographing these session I aim to capture the connection and bond you have.  I love when you play and interact and talk about what you love most about each other. The little faces and expressions you get are beyond adorable and I hope they are what will tug at your heart strings when looking back on these heirloom images. When Nikki and I had our initial styling consultation she said she wanted a bohemian feel that incorporated some femininity. She choose a long crimson dress with delicate straps, and a flowing cream top with floral print leggings for her little one. The both looked stunning! All of my sessions come with digital files for easy sharing online, and most include a print credit as well. I urge you to print the images you wish to pass down. Discs and USB drives can often fail, but the paper images that I rummage through at my grandmother's house have never failed us. A yearly family album is a great way to archive your growing love for one another.
