PHOTO CONTEST!

To thank all of you who read my blog and to celebrate the (soon-to-be) launching of my new kids site, I'm having a PHOTO CONTEST!!

I absolutely adore old photos. The older and more faded, the better! I also absolutely adore Jessica Hughes' line of photo jewelry and gifts. If you haven't seen it, just wait for the new site to launch. Roxy and Kai Photography now carries almost everything Jessica makes! Bracelets, necklaces, cute as can be magnets and wall plaques. You're gonna LOVE her stuff! And one of you lucky blog readers is going to win my very favorite Jessica Hughes bracelet : the Green Apple Rock Candy Bracelet. These puppies will be selling for $225 once the site is launched, so this contest is HUGE!

The AWESOME-O prize :

Some of my favorite (semi) old pictures of me and Henry ...

How cute are Henry's old pictures?? Henry, his mom and stepdad and his old dog Brownie ...



I was a hula girl with attitude and my brother Matt was a clown (haha!)



This is me with my dad at the beach. I look like Roxy!

Pigtails and Lollipops!

I just won a new website from BluDomain! YAY! They have great photo contests all the time. Last week they announced the new contest title was "Pigtails and Lollipops." Anyone who visits the blog knows I had the PERFECT picture! Roxy's 2nd birthday party invitation picture ...



So now I have a nifty new website to design. I haven't decided what to do with it yet. I like the one I have for my wedding work but might turn the new one into a Children's Photography site. Any ideas?? Leave me a comment!

I HEART BLU!

Sooooo much stuff coming up!

Within the next week or so, I'll be posting about Alissa and Bret's wedding, Adam and Amanda's wedding, my friend Nichole's awesomely cute family and about our Easter at my grandma's house. I have tons of sessions coming up in the next few weeks, too, so stay tuned to the blog to see new pictures!

Here's one cute picture of Kai from yesterday. He pulled that wagon all over MawMaw's.

CUTE!

I love photographing children! Kid's sessions are always so much fun - especially when you have two adorable models like these little guys. They were so sweet - they kept picking flowers for me and invited me back to play the next day. Here's a few of my favorites from their session ...
























This is the younger boy throwing his shoe at me! Don't worry, it was a playful attack. I got the shot and then dodged it!

Karen & Scott!

Last weekend I got to shoot a really, really sweet couple - Karen and Scott. They're already married but wanted some cute "engagement" style shots, so we headed over to the McNay early Saturday morning when the weather was PERFECT. Somehow all my recent shoots have managed to miss the rainstorms.

Here's some of my favorites ...













Bridals!

I looooove doing Bridal sessions! The only thing I don't like about Bridals is not being able to show anyone until after the wedding. Darn snooping boyfriends :) Here's some of my favorites from recent Bridal sessions ...

Here's Alissa, who was married last weekend in Austin:







And here's my friend Amanda, who just got married this past weekend:
