beach bum baby zeb

Baby Zeb had his first big trip to Port Aransas! I met his mom just a "few" years ago while we were in college, so it was very special to photograph this precious baby boy! Enjoy the pictures of this tiny 8 week old...



One happy family...









Just Zeb and Daddy...



And Mommy's little boy...



All about me...











And the first two "kids" got to join in the beach pictures...



This is Sasha...



And this is Syndey...



Puppy love...



Thank you so much Mark & Jessica for introducing me to baby Zeb and letting me photograph him! It was so fun to see y'all down at the beach. I hope to see y'all again soon!!!

happy, happy holt family

WOW! 17 members of this exciting Holt family joined me in Port Aransas for a beautiful morning on the beach! They were in town for a family reunion, and I had the honor of capturing them all together! Enjoy...



The two that started it all...



The original Party of 5...



What a fun group! There are 7 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren...





The first Holt son and his whole family...





Carter is 12 years old and is going to be in 7th grade next year. He was so low-key and had a great time...



Christi and her family...





Madison is 10 and will start 5th grade in the fall. She was so happy, and you could just see that she is a wonderful big sister...



The youngest of the bunch, Abby, is 18 months old! I just wanted to eat her up...





The other Holt son and his cute blondies...



Jordan is 11 years old and will be in the 6th grade! She beamed with sunshine the whole time...



Jessica is 9 and will start 4th grade. I love how the sun shined in her hair...



And the only Holt daughter and her sweet family. I was asking her lots of questions on how she raised 3 extremely well-mannered boys!!! (Thanks for the encouragement!!!)





Still in love and having fun...



Grant is 13 years old and will be a big 8th grader this year! Thanks, Grant, for helping round everyone up for me...



Griffin is 10 years old and will be in the 5th grade. He is a handsome man with a great personality...



And Graham is 7 years old and will start 2nd grade in the fall. He's so cute, and he's just as sweet as can be...



Thank you to all of the Holt family for meeting me super-early on a super-sunny Saturday morning!! It was a pleasure getting to meet all of you! I hope to see y'all again in the future!

the olivers celebrate 35 years!

A sweet celebration! Mandy, one of the Oliver daughters, called me a while back to say that she wanted a family photo to celebrate her parents' 35th wedding anniversary! What a fabulous reason to celebrate!!! So, I met this wonderful family in Port Aransas for an evening of fun! Enjoy...





And here are the happy lovebirds, Paw Paw and Maw! 35 years and still going strong...



The Olivers have 2 daughters and 5 grandkids! It was a joy to watch them all interact with each other...





The Webb family was full of smiles and much love for that baby, Addi...



Big Brother, Alonzo, is 13!! He is one of the most well-mannered 13 year olds that I've ever met...



Allysa is 12, and has amazingly beautiful eyes! See what I mean...



Elizabeth is 10 years old. She was so happy to be at the beach and gleamed the whole time we were there...



And tiny Addi just turned 1! She was so good and sweet, as long as her mommy was close...



The Heine girls were so fun! (Mom is the one that contacted me with the neat surprise!)



And Brooke is 4 years old. She wanted to play more than take pictures, but I managed to sneak in a few cute smiles from her!...



Thanks Olivers for sharing your evening with me! And congratulations on a wonderful 35 years of marriage! What a blessing!!!
