You know your kids are going to be the cutest ones on the block.
After all, you’ve been planning their costumes since before the Fourth of July.
Do you really want to trust these precious memories to a telephone snapshot? Of course not.
Come on out to the park and let’s do this right.
Once you reserve your time slot, we’ll meet at a Katy area park on Sunday afternoon, October 24. The exact location depends upon who signs up and of course, weather and park conditions. Come dressed and ready to go because we’ll only have about 15-20 minutes per child. That’s long enough to relax and mug for the camera, but still quick enough to accommodate most young attention spans.
Afterward, you’ll receive your very own online password-protected photo gallery and a coupon for two five-by-seven prints per child or an equivalent value that you can use toward larger prints or gift items.
Now that’s one sweet deal!
Call 281.773.7465 or e-mail to reserve your time. We’ll have a SPOOK-Tacular time.

“Didn’t I just walk them into Kindergarten last week?”
It’s something I’ve heard my friends all across the country saying over the last few days as they’ve sent their kiddos off to college. Truth is, the time really does fly and our nests begin to empty before wer’re really ready. Betty, however, is a very wise mom. She knew that her college age daughter who was home for the summer would be out the door again in a few short weeks and that her two younger sons would be right behind her in the blink of an eye.
We met at Peckham Park for a portrait session earlier this summer, and our portraits with all three kids together will only become more and more precious over the years.
I absolutely love to see how different families interact with each other. They laughed, shared private jokes and all had a wonderful attitude.
Barefoot portraits are something I love for a number of reasons, and that’s what we chose to do for this session.
Still the flip flops that we used to move from one location to the next were just hard to resist.
And there’s nothing more fun or endearing than a memory of kids who aren’t afraid to ham it up for the camera.
Kudos Sis! Thanks for the eyes! And guys, thank you for playing along.

No big assignments to report on from this weekend because Mothers Day weekend was all about family. Moms are important, but we also celebrate our grandmothers, aunts, cousins, in-laws and out-laws. We think our men are pretty darn special too.
I thought my niece making kissy faces from the back of the pickup truck was cute enough in its own right, but the fact that her daddy’s face is reflected in the rear-view mirror makes it priceless. Sometimes I enjoy trying out different effects on the same picture and putting them all back into one single composite.
She LOVES her Daddy
You probably haven’t really lived unless you’ve thrown rotten eggs from the back of a pickup truck or stood in a low-water crossing laughing at the BOYS who wouldn’t take off their shoes. 
We gals love the feeling of cold water rushing past our ankles, fuzzy green moss between our toes, and laughing until our sides are about to split. Yep — I’m right in there, thanks to my brother who took this picture so I could be in it too.
Cousins — just horsing around on Saturday afternoon. It’s something everyone should do at least once a year.
For those who were at the farm — or those who just wish they were, click this link http://www.spccreative.com/Family-and-Friends/Holiday-Gatherings/Mothers-Day-2010/12134291_qs8tn#862794685_xSb6B to enjoy the rest of the pictures from the weekend.
