A Names

Check out this beautiful bunch that I was lucky enough to point my camera at yesterday. All of their names start with an A - I don't know how their mom keeps them straight!



Anthony, Aalisity, Aalizae & Alliah...




Just for fun, a totem pole!



And my favorite of the bunch...



Thanks for bringing your kids over for picture day, Adriana! Oh my gosh, another A name :)

Arian

Meet Arian. This beautiful gal will be graduating from Tech next month with her BS in Human Developement and Family Studies. She'll be going on to get her Masters in Dallas soon, but we're lucky to have her with us here in Lubbock for a little while longer. Arian lights up a room with her gorgeous smile and sweet personality and she's always ready to laugh, but I have to tell you folks that she is a little bit directionally challenged. I think we can overlook this one little flaw, don't you?

First stop, Texas Tech...



If only Arian was wearing jeans, I so would have had her climb up on the horse!



Off to the park...







Then back to the studio...



Graduation attire :)




Love these two...





Sweet smile...



Thanks for spending your Saturday evening with me Arian!

It's wonderful to have great friends, a fabulous husband, a loving family, and to live in this great country of ours. I am a lucky gal! Hope you all had a safe and happy 4th of July!

Baby James

I don't get to shoot babies very often, so I was really happy to snap a few pictures of this scrumptious little one a few days ago. James Harley (what a cool name!) is so sweet and good-natured, he had a big smile on his face the whole time, and he's very photogenic to boot! Thanks for letting me take your picture James!
