Plano Portrait Photography: The Farberow Family

I photographed the Farberow family back in April, but somehow their session is only just now making it onto my blog. I have a lot of fun with family sessions with adult "children", especially when everyone is enthusiastic about participating. The Farberows were a joy to work with. We tromped all over Arbor Hills Nature Preserve, capturing keepsake portraits and a few intentionally silly "awkward family photos" as well. When my subjects have a good sense of humor, the photos should reflect that!





I crack up every time I see this photo:

Denton Engagement Portraits: Ariana & Logan

In April, I met Logan and Ariana at the Old Alton Bridge in Denton, Texas. We didn't run into any of the ghosts Old Alton Bridge is allegedly known for, but we did get some cute engagement portraits on and around that old truss bridge. I particularly love the shots featuring some of their favorite books. We tried to finish the session on the Denton square, but alas, some event had every last bit of parking claimed and too many people to work around, so we drove across town and arrived at the TWU campus right at dusk. We fit in a few more formal shots there in the fading light. I'm so looking forward to photographing Ariana and Logan's wedding in October!

Addison Circle: Hammer Family Portraits

I met up with the Hammer family at Addison Circle on little Miss Sophia's first birthday. Her grandparents were in town for the occasion, so it was the perfect time for an extended family portrait session! I've been shooting more and more of these sessions that include the whole family, and I really enjoy the challenge. Heck, I've shot two extended family portrait sessions in the last week, with groups of 10 and 14, including numerous small children. The Hammer family's session was comparatively very easy with only one baby to cajole smiles out of! Isn't Sophia such a cutie?
