Beautiful family...beautiful setting...fun morning!

Fall Colors for Family Photos {McKinney Family Photography}

The peak fall colors only last a week or so and you have to grab them while you can.  We took these images last week.  I drove by this spot yesterday and all the leaves are gone.  It is so sad to me how short the beautiful colors last.  Love this precious and GORGEOUS family!

Goodness gracious...could you be any more beautiful?  This was from our Ho Ho Ho Studio Mini Sessions last week.  So precious!

I'm Cute and I Know It {McKinney, Allen Children's Photography}

Love these sweet kids.  They had so much personality.  What a fun time we had together!

What a cute and fun family!  I love the expressions I got out these cutie pies!

Sidney, McKinney Christian Academy Class of 2013

Sidney came to me looking for something totally different.  We decided to do an after dark senior session and write "on the water" with light while we were shooting.  This was harder than it seemed, but totally fun.  Here is one sneak peek from her fun and "different" senior session!

Ho Ho Ho Mini Sessions {McKinney, Allen Children's Photography}

Our set is ready - all we need is your children (and our mantle which is being stained as we speak).  We have a couple of sessions available on Tuesday, November 20 between 11-1 and several available on Sunday, December 1 between 11-2.  We can still promise Christmas delivery and Christmas cards with these sessions.  They are our last slots available for 2012 Christmas deliver.  Grab them while you can!

Shhhh....I have a secret... {McKinney, Allen Children's Photography}

Look who came to see me at our Tucker Hill Pumpkinville Mini Sessions last weekend.  I think his mommy has something to announce.....

Trey - Class of 2013 LoveJoy High School Senior {McKinney, Allen Senior Photography}

Meet Trey  - a brave guy that let his mom take him on a two hour photo session.  It was totally worth it as we got in two locations and the perfect sunset in the field.  I am totally loving my new "guy" chair so that I have more options with the guys.  I think I need to distress it a little bit more ;-)

Aubrey - Class of 2013 Lake Travis High School {Lakeway Senior Photography}

Meet Aubrey - a stunning senior at Lake Travis High School in Austin.  Her mother Darcy was one of my best friends in High School and it was a really emotional moment for me when she asked me if I would photograph her daughter.  We had lost touch other than Facebook over the years and I was really honored.  They drove to McKinney for their pictures - a very long drive but fun for Aubrey to have unique locations for her images.  They hired our personal stylist Nadine to do Aubrey's hair and makeup before the session and to come along on the shoot to style her hair and clothing and keep her makeup fresh.  Nadine's giftings always take the senior sessions over the top.  I usually only post one sneak peek until the seniors choose the images they like, but I just fell in love with these images and had to post more! 

Lovin' my new chaise lounge by the way!

 

Halloween Family Fun {McKinney Family Photography}

I love this totally FUN family that dressed up as Alice in Wonderland for Halloween.  They wanted to do something different this year for family pictures and Christmas cards and asked me to do their pictures in costume.  I just HAPPENED to pick up my "new" vintage chaise lounge yesterday and knew it would be PERFECT for their picture.  Add a sunset in the fields and this picture rocks!  I added the strange color tones per Johnny Depp's request ;-)
