When Ashley contacted me months ago to photograph a group of her girlfriends who were coming to South Padre Island, I was a little nervous since she was a photographer too. But I immediately got excited when I realized that we could trade services and that I could FINALLY be in some images with my family!

Maddie was SO sick the whole week leading up to the session so I was a bit nervous. To tell you the truth, I’ve never photographed a session so frazzled in my life!! Our hotel had us waiting for hours and then cancelled our reservation about 10 minutes before the time I was supposed to meet all the girls, so I was a nervous wreck and I was dealing with a toddler who had 102.5 fever in the lobby! NOT FUN!

Well, to make a long story short I photographed the sweetest group of girlfriends!! I’m so excited everything worked out and that I was able to document their friendship and trip to SPI. The wind was SO crazy that weekend, but I think it really lends to the model feel of these images! 🙂 Aren’t they are all simply stunning??!!

Ashley, thank you so much for contacting me and allowing you to capture you and your friends. I really appreciate you photographing my family. You were such a blessing to us too! 🙂

Enjoy your peek ladies!

AAAHHHH – I LOVE THEM!!! 🙂 They are SO fun and they make me want to cry just looking at them because I miss my girls! Thank you so much for creating something so special for us! Can’t wait to see the rest!

I appreciate it so much, Melissa!

Ashley and Dustin thank you so much for trusting me to capture your engagement portraits. You two make THE MOST adorable couple and were so much FUN to photograph! I had such a hard time narrowing down your sneak peek images, so once again, this will be a lengthy post. 😉 Ashley told me she wanted some of the images to have a “western romance” feel to them and I think we were able to capture that perfectly. Thank you for being so easy to work with! Enjoy your peek…

Ashley

Hooray! I can’t wait to see the rest. Thanks, Melissa!

LOVE these!! I especially love the close up of the ring – and what a gorgeous ring it is! Did you use your 24-70 to get this shot? How do you like using WordPress? (is that what your format is?). I currently use blogger, and it’s okay, but I would prefer my pics to be larger! Great job on these!

Paige

Wow, what a gorgeous couple. These photos are stunning! Great locations too. You really did a wonderful job capturing their personalities.

Thank you so much Ashley, Melissa and Paige! I appreciate your comments.

I’ve been photographing the S family since the start of my business and they were one of my first clients. Denise and Adam, thanks so much for trusting me to photograph your beautiful family again! 🙂 I was so happy to finally meet Miss L and take her 4 month portraits! She is a doll. I can’t wait until you see all of the expressions we got! Too cute! I photographed her big brother when he was about her age too. Enjoy your sneak peek! I know you’ve been waiting for it! 😉

And finally, who can resist a little sibling love? 🙂
