Sneak Peek – Abby {Dallas Fort Worth Children’s Photographer}

This image makes my heart overflow.  Abby just arrived from China and I was so honored to take her first photos!  This image is going on my new brochure and was also shot in my new natural light studio. Can’t wait to post pics of it soon!

Becky - What a beautiful baby! Great photo Heather!

Baby Mason – I’m a Great Auntie! {Dallas Fort Worth Baby and Child Photographer}

I cannot believe my oldest niece is now a mother – and I’m a Great Aunt!  I still remember when she was a baby and how excited I was to have a niece to spoil.  I’ve enjoyed watching her grow into the beautiful young woman she is and was so honored to photograph her new baby, Mason.  Here are a few pics of this handsome boy as well as one of my favorite pics of Amberly and I years ago.

I can’t believe I’m posting this but it’s too funny.  I believe I was about 16 here and she was 3.  Love her huge sunglasses!  Hilarious!

Rebecca is Expecting! {Dallas Fort Worth Maternity and Baby Photographer}

God is so good and is blessing me in so many ways – I woke up today to find out one of my child images will grace the cover of a fairly new local magazine! EEK! I can’t wait to show you which one – it will be on the March/April issue of Mansfield Magazine.

Secondly, he has blessed me with such an amazing friend in Becky (Rebecca).  I’ve had the honor of photographing her wedding, her family, her first born and now maternity pics for her second pregnancy.  Here are some faves from our sessi0n.  I mean seriously, what a beautiful woman! I hope I look half this good pregnant!  We had so much fun frolicking in the woods and I can’t wait to photograph baby Wyatt when he gets here!  Love you Becky!

First, some oh-so-sweet photos of her and her precious Walker…

Sneak Peek – recent fashion shoot {Dallas Fort Worth Senior Photographer}

I am in love with this photo shoot I recently did with my friend Beth Morgan.  There are so many awesome photos and outfit changes that I may do a series of posts and divide them up by girl.  Here are a few more teasers for you.  These girls are simply darling…

Julie – Headshots {Dallas Fort Worth Portrait Photographer}

Julie and I were in the same sorority back in college and I hadn’t heard from her in years.  Enter Facebook.  It’s been so nice to reconnect and hang out after all these years.  She now lives in Oklahoma as a successful attorney – sorry Julie, had to brag on ya! :)   She and her husband were in town a couple weeks ago and we had a great time – we grabbed these shots at my house as she wanted some new head shots.  Julie, you’re gorgeous!  Hope you don’t mind me posting these!  :)

Kayla is Expecting! {Dallas Fort Worth Maternity Photographer}

Oh my goodness, I hope I look this gorgeous when pregnant!  Wow!  This was a fun and challenging shoot because if you know my work, you know I typically shoot outdoors, using natural light.  It was so cold on the day of her shoot that we needed to shoot indoors.  But I still used natural light – the best, in my opinion. :)   I cannot believe we made a makeshift “studio” at the doctor’s office she works at.  It really goes to show that you can shoot just about anywhere.  And I absolutely love that part of my job!  Kayla, there were so many to choose from but these are some of my faves.  I can’t wait to shoot the birth and baby’s first pictures!  You are simply stunning girl!!  Enjoy!

Baby “B” is 6 months old! {Dallas Fort Worth Children’s Photographer}

This little chunky monkey cracked me up!  He is the cutest thing and I couldn’t get enough of him – thanks to his mom for letting me hang around to get a bunch!  His father is a police officer so we honored him with some images with his hat.  Thank you “F” family for selecting me to photograph “B’s” 6 month pics.  Hope we can work together again!

Some faves:

Couldn’t resist these photos of adorable big sister “M” in her pretty black dress.  I wish it hadn’t been so cold so we could have shot outside and had her dancing about in it:

frost11frost10frost12And last but not least, all three gorgeous kids, big brother “R” with “M” and “B” – precious.  Mom wanted this shot specifically.  Love it.
