One of my favorite parts of spring is the emergence of beautiful flowers. Here’s a digital bouquet from across the country. Make sure you get outside this week and take time to stop and smell the roses!
April showers bring May flowers!

Rehearsal moments
We like to show up to wedding rehearsals. It’s a great way for us to learn the layout of the venue, and get some great candid shots. Not every couple chooses to have us there for the rehearsal, but we love it! Let us get all those special little moments and details that often go unnoticed.
Bit of art, bit of life
Here are more highlights from Samantha’s travels around our country. She likes shooting something that is cool to start with, but then has a hint of life to it. In these, you’ll notice some interesting architecture, pretty vistas, and at least a peek of people.
Welcoming little sister
What a joy to see this family through the years! This time, a baby sister is added to the mix. It was fun to see the twins’ reactions to their little sibling. Again, being at their house made the shoot flow easier.
Hoppy Easter!
Ask most kids what their favorite thing is about Easter, and I doubt you’ll hear suggestions of nice clothes and church services. Today, kids love the egg hunt! At our house, it’s a tradition to make tie-dye eggs (which we’ll eat later – yea for sustainability!) using science. Give it a try! Make a paste by mixing baking soda, water, and food coloring. Glob the paste on your eggs. Then, slowly pour vinegar over the eggs. Voila!
Views from Mexico
We saw Samantha’s photos from New Mexico, now for a trip south of the border. She enjoyed seeing the sights of Chichén Itzá, Día de Muertos decorations, and even the beautiful surroundings as she flew away.
Family photos +
Look at all the joy in these photos! This family showed up to Queeny Park with a few extras in tow. The kids brought along some of their cousins to join in on the pictures. The smiles are so genuine, it’s infectious.
Views from New Mexico
Samantha has traveled to New Mexico several times during the last several years. Her in-laws lived at the edge of a canyon overlooking the Rio Grande with national forest on the other side. The views are stunning, even in mountainous deserts aren’t your thing.
Colors and leaves abound
Mother nature shares such beautiful wonders with us. This family decided to take their photos at the neighborhood golf course. What a great area it turned out to be! Throw in kids and leaves, and you can’t miss.
McKinney Falls winter beauty
Samantha’s travels recently brought her to the Austin, TX area. While there, she was able to explore McKinney Falls State Park. She found beautiful old trees covered in ball moss, an ancient rock shelter, and water features running low during the winter.
