Dodging the Rain with Megan

Megan had her appointment for senior portraits on Sunday. The sky looked ominious when we began the outdoor session and shortly afterwards it began to rain. Did that stop us? No way. We just drove around the rain. No kidding. It would be raining in one part of McKinney and we would just drive to a new location where it was dry. The rain chased us during her entire outdoor session, however,that just made for beautiful blue skies. Afterwards we went back to my studio for her indoor session and tried out some new backdrops that just arrived. You can see some of Megan's portraits below.

Hot Outside, Haute Inside

I had three portrait sessions on Saturday and because it was so hot outside, I was very glad that the first two were inside my studio where it was nice and cool. My first session was with Alaina who is very close [less than 2 weeks] from having her first bundle of joy and sleepless nights arrive. I type sleepless nights because neither of my daughters slept all night for many months [as I remember it]. This was an awesome maternity session. First, Alanina's and my mutual friend Kelly made a surprise visit and brought this slinky little dress that I'm sure she wears clubbing (making guys seriously jealous of her soon to be husband, Wes). Normally I would not be too excited about a using a party dress in a maternity session, but Alaina looked AMAZING in it as you can see here.



Here is a portrait of Alaina showing off one of her tattoos. Alaina reminds me of a pretty famous movie star, especially in this picture. Can you guess who it is?



As many amazing images as we made on Saturday, this has to be my favorite. To me, this embodies all the emotion and love that a mother must feel for her child during those long months of pregnancy.



Alaina was so easy to work with, which made sense when her mom explained she had modeled in the past. With Alaina's amazing posing, incredible outfits and movie star looks [have you figured out who she looks like yet] it may have been hot outside, but it was definitely haute inside my studio.

Senior Portraits for Stacy

I love it when seniors [girls that is] bring awesome clothes and Stacy did not let me down. She had alot of great outfits, but the pale green dress-- WoW! I had to remind my self to let her change to another outfit, but honestly, I could have photographed that for the entire session. Stacy chose both indoor and outdoor senior portraits. Below are a few including one of the DRESS.
