emily • amarillo senior

Meet Emily. She's a senior from Highland Park in Amarillo. Miss Emily is not only at the top of her class, she's athletic, gorgeous, and most of all- really, really nice and easy to talk to. Go ahead, be jealous. :) This girl has such a bright future and is looking to become a dentist, which means she may be cleaning my teeth one day (yikes!). She and her family drove in for her photoshoot and we had a great time. Thanks so much, Emily, for being fantastic to work with! 

smith + family • amarillo, tx

I wish you all could hang out with little Smith- he is such an all-American boy! I loved his chilled out attitude and the variety of cute (and hilarious) expressions. We had a great session in the park thanks to his fabulous parents and grandmother, who made sure he was completely entertained at all times (thank you!). 

The lips! So precious!

These two may just be my favorite pairing. Is it weird that I find drool adorable?

I love that Smith seemed to smile the most when he was with his parents. 

Gorgeous family? Check!

kora • one year old! • amarillo, texas

Oh, I just love this sweet little girl (and her parents!). I've been honored to photograph Kora several times during her first year of life and this session was just as much fun as the others have been! Kora has the most precious, happy disposition- if you don't believe me- know she was getting over an ear infection when we did our shoot and she still smiled so much! Here are some of my favorites. Happy Birthday Kora!

I love all of her expressions!

My sister Layne made us some adorable signs that matched perfectly!

leslie • 2010 senior • borger, texas photographer

Leslie is another senior from Borger! She said she was nervous about her session, but she had no reason to be- we had a really great time wandering up and down 6th Street in Amarillo, and she totally rocked it! 

I had several favorites from her session, so get ready!

Have I ever been able to resist a yellow school bus? 

Yet another brightly colored vehicle! We could not confirm that there WASN'T someone in there at the time...so we kept our distance. :)

My favorite favorites!

Thanks Leslie, you are gorgeous inside and out!

jerad • 2010 senior • borger, texas photographer

Jerad is a senior at Borger High School, where I grew up. He did such a great job during his photoshoot- we did a lot of exploring and found some pretty cool spots. I did his sister's senior pictures a couple of years ago, and it's crazy how fast life has flown by since then! 

Jerad is going to pursue something I didn't even know existed- underwater welding. All in all, it sounds like a pretty cool job (although a dangerous one). I have a feeling he can handle it, though. :) Thanks so much Jerad!

This cowboy hat was his Dad's.
