Outdoor Family Portraits in North Houston Texas | Child, Baby and Family Photographer

“In family life, love is the oil that eases friction, the cement that binds closer together, and the music that brings harmony.”

— Friedrich Nietzche

Howdy, folks! I hope you're having a wonderful Friday and gearing up for a spectacular weekend. Spring Break is almost upon us. My little girl, Emma, is really looking forward to a week home from school and I'm excited about several upcoming shoots. For example, as a Cypress photographer, I document all things bump, baby and family. This is what makes my heart sing and being there to capture your family milestones is beyond rewarding. Thank you for entrusting me! It's an honor.

This morning I'm previewing one of my very first clients. They took a chance on me three years ago and have stood by me as I've grown and expanded my business. They're sweet as can be and I have nothing but love for them. For their session, I had them meet me in The Woodlands, an area about 30 minutes north of Houston. This location is fantastic! It features a classic bridge that works as a wonderful focal point and it also has lovely evening light. It's warm, golden, magical - everything you need to encompass your family. Here are some of my favorite images! Hope you enjoy! xoxox!

Let's get in touch. I'd love to work together!

"Up" Photography Session | Cypress TX Children's Photographer {Tomball, Houston and The Woodlands TX}

“So long, boys! I’ll send you a postcard from Paradise Falls!”

— Carl Fredricksen

There's something magical about childhood. You're who you want to be. Anything is possible. 

I first met L when was 6 months old. Since then, I’ve been photographing him a few times per year. You may have seen him on the blog before, as Mom and I have tried locations inside the 610 loop such as Herman Park or the Energy Corridor, like Terry Hershey Park.

Who is Lucien? He is a spunky toddler who is both adorable and inquisitive. Like most little boys, he enjoys exploring and often keeping me on my toes during the session. That’s okay – it’s important to let the little one be who they are, so for his sessions we always pick an open area with lots of room for him to run. You could certainly say little ones keep me in shape since I’m often running after them, ha! Anyway, L’s favorite movie is “Up”. If you’re not familiar with it, the premise is simple. Carl Fredricksen (Ed Asner), a 78-year-old balloon salesman, is about to fulfill a lifelong dream. Tying thousands of balloons to his house, he flies away to the South American wilderness. But curmudgeonly Carl's worst nightmare comes true when he discovers a little boy named Russell is a stowaway aboard the balloon-powered house.

This in mind, Mom and I worked together to come up with an array of props to preserve L’s favorite childhood movie. We thought of many details from objects that are special to Carl, to the balloons and basket, airplanes, vintage suitcases, the mailbox he and his wife create, their pet dog, the jar they use to save funds, their adventure book. And perhaps that’s why this session was so lovely is because Carl embraces the spirit of adventure…just like Lucian. When you’re a toddler, everything is an adventure. The world is a big place!

I'd love to photograph your sweet little one and capture their spirit of adventure!

Ivy's Super Sweet One Year Session & Cake Smash | Houston Baby Pictures

Houston Texas Baby Photographer: First Birthday Portraits + Outdoor Cake Smash

There's nothing more sweet than turning the big one! This is a beautiful milestone because it's a time to celebrate all the lovely things that have happened over the last year from the birth of baby, bringing him or her home from the hospital, seeing them grow and change daily, ect. This in mind, what's more fun than a sunset one year old photography session complete with a festive cake, pink tutu and even an adorable bow?

Here's to keeping things sweet! 

Her beautiful eyes are one of the first things I notice about her! I cannot help but smile. What a fun one year old cake smash session! Cypress is a great location because it feels rural (and it is!) but it's also close to all major highways so traveling is a breeze. 

I love the "in between" moments of a baby's photography session; Mom often has a precious hat for little one to wear and sometimes the kiddo does not want to wear it. As you can see, this cutie was teasing us! Her facial expressions are darling. I hope Mom loves these!

Another part of a outdoor cake smashes I really enjoy are the details. Baby reaching for the cake is the best! Their little fingers get messy and their eyes widen once they realize the cake is sweet...and all for them. We always take our time and let Baby explore. The photos are meant to be beautiful; this is achieved through patience and just letting the baby be little. 

Hey! That looks delicious! I don't think she's going to share, but that's okay because you only turn one once and you deserve a cake all to yourself. It's hard work being a precious little! ;)

It's not a cake smash if someone doesn't get their toes dirty! We had a wonderful time as you can see. The messier the better. There's no time to be a little lady when you have cake in front of you.

I'd love to have your baby on my calendar. Let's get in touch.
