It’s no secret that graduating seniors are my absolute FAVORITE subjects for photography. These kids all bring their own personality and spirit to their sessions, and we have an amazingly fun time together.
Juliana, who will graduate from Katy Taylor High School this spring was so much fun to work with. Is she not ADORABLE with her flawless skin, big brown eyes and DAZZLING smile? Words fail me today, so we’ll just let the pictures do the talking. I think this is going to be a GREAT year for SENIORS!
2013 — BRING IT!

Even though we love love love to venture out to fun locations throughout the Greater Houston area and into some nearby smaller communities as well, Juliana chose to complete her entire session right at our studios. Here we’ve got a great assortment of background sets that are totally unique to SPCcreative Photography, and more are being made ready at this very moment. The class of 2013 will get to be the very FIRST kids to use these new versatile settings, and they’re not like anything you’ll find elsewhere. I am so super-duper excited to spend a few more days with with work-gloves and paint brushes because it’s going to be AMAZING!







Be sure to scroll through our blog and Web site for more senior portraits. If you like what you see and think that YOU might want what they got, don’t wait. Give me a call with any questions you may have, and let’s get to know each other. We run a small studio and our appointments are very limited. The best dates are already filling up. Don’t miss out.

It’s nearly the end of 2012 and now that the holiday craziness is settling down, I’ve started cleaning up my desk and sorting out some files.
While I’m going to be the first to admit that I’m a delinquent blogger, you’ll probably wonder like I do how I could have POSSIBLY missed a chance to blog this beautiful senior from… YES… I’m SO EMBARRASSED to have missed it… the class of 2012.
By now, Rachel has already finished her first semester at my own Alma Mater, The University of Texas, and is probably getting ready to go back. In any case, here’s a look back at a super sweet and oh-so cute Seven Lakes graduate from nearly a year ago.
For What it’s Worth… My New Years Resolutions include taking the time to attend to details like BLOGGING MY SESSIONS so that you don’t miss any of my favorite images like these in the coming year.

Okay… so yesterday I shared a post with images from a portrait session that we did with Ashley.
What you didn’t get to see was how we built a custom album for her.
Sometimes — oh, okay, nearly always, a session produces more images than you can feasibly hang on the wall, and it’s oh so hard to make a decision.
Fortunately, with our gorgeous professionally-produced hard-cover books, you don’t have to decide! Just pick your favorites and we’ll do the rest.
If there are meaningful quotes that are important to you — as Ashley did — we can include those too.
Pithy quotes, Bible verses, song lyrics, or even just a private joke that makes you smile. Every book is individually customized.
So… Here’s Ashley’s album! I hope she enjoys it for years to come… as for you?… Enjoy today!

Ashley, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, porcelain-skinned beauty, graduated last spring from Taylor High School. Her senior year was so incredibly full that the senior portrait session before graduation just didn’t happen. Next next thing we knew she was off to a summer studying in Paris — and NOW she’s living the dream as a Freshman at New York University. Just because we missed the traditional pre-graduation time frame, it ABSOLUTELY DID NOT mean that she and her family would have to go without some gorgeous portraits to commemorate this eventful year in her life.

Because of weather issues, we shot the entire session indoors at my studio. I tucked my own canine studio mascots, Addie and Lucy, safely into their kennels with pillows and chew sticks so that Bluebell, the adorable Shi Tzu, could feel right at home.





To top off our session, Ashley’s parents, Steve and Angela joined into the action for a few extra images.
Christmas cards? Check! Heirloom Wall Portrait? Check! Gifts for grandparents and a touch of home for the dorm? Check!





I had Sooooo much fun photographing Ashley and creating some gorgeous wall portraits and albums for her and for her family. Yeah… I really do love what I do!

Well… it’s the first day of school for most of the students in Texas, and we’re still playing a little bit of catch-up with seniors from the class of 2012. What’s a better way to celebrate Holly’s first day at Texas Tech than to share some of our favorite images from this session — not so long ago but still back when she was a Senior at Katy Taylor High School.


Rockin those red boots, Holly’s bound to be ready for anything that West Texas has to offer.

Best of luck in Lubbock, Holly. In the days ahead, may you learn new things, make new friends, and create memories to last a lifetime.
