The Woodlands Photo Session for Sophia Martinez and her family
I was also impressed by how easy the family made my job. They were patient, relaxed, and willing to try different poses and locations. It's always a pleasure to work with clients who trust your vision and allow you to take creative risks.
Black-and-White vs Color Portraits for Emily’s family
The white background works best for families with children, as their healthy skin and bright eyes are perfectly enhanced by the bright light bouncing around the room. Just add an elegant pose and voilà - a perfect portrait!
Christmas Mini-Session for Katie and her Extended Family
This family knows how to do Christmas right! All family members came together in The Woodlands, Texas for a day filled with laughter and joy. The weather was sunny and warm, the perfect backdrop for their formal and informal group Christmas card photos.
Christmas Album for Nancy and her Family
Just wanted to give a shoutout to Nancy for booking a fantastic family Christmas photo session with me at the beautiful William Goodrich Jones state forest near The Woodlands, Texas. The Houston fall foliage in November was stunning and the blue sky reflected in the lake waters made for some truly breathtaking photos. I can't wait to share these gorgeous images!
Courtney’s Maternity Session in Houston Museum District
I’m getting more and more maternity sessions recently. This means that the world is finally recovering from the pandemic.
It always brings me joy to see an expecting father-to-be worshiping his wife for carrying this gift of a new life.

Family Mini-Sessions: Christy, Morgan and Sam
What a gorgeous family - so much love and tenderness in every smile.
Capturing different love stories is probably the most enjoyable part of being a photographer.
Family Mini Session In Houston Downtown
We had a blast creating candid photos for Amanda Norris and her family while there were still 3 of them. Hope to see them soon for an updated family photo. ))
Family Mini Session for Anna Chrabaszcz
Summer mini sessions.
Some families are all so handsome and photogenic that it’s hard to believe that they are real people, not professional models. We created a few headshots for Anna Chrabaszcz as well. Just beautiful!
A Sunny Mini Session for Noah Robbins
Spring and summer mini sessions in Pittsburgh’s North Park.
Love working with this family - young Noah and his adopted parents Michaela and Dave Robbins. They wear creative and colorful outfits and are always a feast for the eyes to look at. The positive energy radiating from these three is contagious!
Family Mini Session in Pittsburgh for Lauren Perlis
Mini sessions in Pittsburgh’s Mellon Park.
It was a pleasure to meet Laurel Perils and her family on a bright sunny morning in Mellon Park. The kids really enjoyed running around and the parents’ task was to react quickly when an opportunity to pose as a family presented itself. I had to be fast enough to find myself in the right place at the right time, expose, compose, focus and press click. No pressure. ))
Winter Mini Session at Phipps for Leanne Elliott and her family
Family Mini sessions at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens.
Have you ever seen a 9-months old baby smiling and looking at the camera for all 30 minutes: no tears, not even a trace of dissatisfaction, just a pure bundle of joy? I now have! It’s Leanne Eliott’s little son. We were able to create so many photographic memories for this family, what you see here is just a small fraction of their gallery. :-)
Winter Mini Session at Phipps for Noah Robbins and his family
Family Mini sessions at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens.
It was the second time I photographed Noah Robbins, his parents Michaela and Dave. It was great to re-connect with them again. Noah made great progress and looked strong, happy and handsome! This time the family came with the grandparents, all dressed in themed, beautifully created costumes - Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, Captain Hook, John Darling and Mr Smee. We had a blast creating a story for their family album.
Winter Mini Session at Phipps for Spencer Kingman and his family
Family Mini sessions at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens.
Spencer Kingman brought his family fully prepared for the inclement weather, armed with five umbrellas in case of the forecasted torrential rain. We got lucky and had a blast creating group and individual portraits for all the family. Love their outfits in jewel colors - a perfect way to look gorgeous in any season.
Winter Mini Session at Phipps for Andrea D’Alessandro and her large family
Winter Mini sessions in the City.
Andrea D’Alessandro presented me with a special challenge that day: to photograph her extended family of fifteen. They did a great job of dressing in one style and the children were incredibly cooperative, so we had plenty of time to create a few of all family portraits, photos of just the kids, every family individually and even a fun time running around for the little ones.
And of course, Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens are gorgeous in any weather and any season, even when the skies look menacing.
Winter Mini Session at Phipps for Zach Reed and family
Winter Mini sessions in the City.
Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens look gorgeous in any weather and any season, even when the skies are threatening with rain any minute.
Love how Zach’s family played with the earth colors in their outfits. I personally have a weak spot for light dresses combined with cowboy boots. So fitting for winter and just gorgeous!
City Mini Session for Crela Frye and her family
Mini sessions in the City.
Some shoots look better in black and white. Pittsburgh’s signature yellow bridges are spectacular but sometimes you just want to focus on the emotions, not the surroundings and thus black and white perfect.
