Here is Caleb. At only a year old, he has already mastered the art of walking AND running. This was one of the few times I caught him sitting still. He was a very active and happy little kid.
 

Today's shoot with Jenna went really well...much better than last time. (Our last session ended up with a trip, and fall, and a broken little foot.) Nothing but smiles all around this time.
 

We spent our MLK holiday at the Fort Worth Stock Show and had a great time. This was totally out of the norm for our family, but the day couldn't have been any better. We saw the cows, goats, pigs, chickens, rabbits and much, much more. Kate wore her pink cowboy hat and Laura got to show off her heelies...we saw several perplexed cowboys watching her zip around. We were quite the site to behold. We listened to some cowboy poetry and campfire songs before settling down to watch the calf roping. We sat on the front row and the girls got face to face with some real cowboys and their horses. It don't get any better than this. :-)
 

I had an opportunity to shoot my first maternity session today. The Ripley's are expecting Hannah in just a few weeks. Big brother, Chase, did a great job of being excited and showing off his smile. Be watching for pictures of new little Hannah in a month or two.
 

Julia was a lot of fun today. She was a smart, sweet, energetic kid that was just a lot of fun to be around. We got some great images that I think really captured her unique personality. I hope her mom agrees.
 

I had a chance to shoot my second engagement session this afternoon. I met Andres & Karime in the Arts District in downtown Dallas and spent a few hours getting to know them and capture some really nice pictures. They are a really fun couple and we had a great time. I will be shooting their wedding on July 5th. Watch for Karime's bridals to be posted in March.
 

I have known the Gelbers for quite some time. Stephanie is an Instructional Technology Coordinator whom I have worked with since moving to Irving. I had the great fortune to have Rachel in one of my Web Mastering classes while I was teaching at Irving High School. I remember at the time hoping that Laura and Kate would grow up to be as fun, responsible and easy-going as Rachel was. After spending some time with their family yesterday, I was reminded again at what great young people Rachel and Austin are. Wonderful family. Great kids.
 

Of these five cuties, two of them belong to Karri, a good friend that teaches across the hall from me. As you can probably tell by looking, these six cousins really know how to have a good time when they get together! They did great as we trekked across the Gaylord Texan this afternoon. This is the line-them-up-against-the-wall-and-shoot approach. I thought it turned out kind of cool. Their individual pictures (click here) turned out very nice as well.
 

I spent some time with my nephew Hunter and his girlfriend Rachel this afternoon getting some pictures for them. We shot out at an old abandoned work truck on the family farm. I really like how they turned out. It looks like this is my last official shoot of 2007. Its been an awesome year for my photography, and 2008 looks even better. What an exciting time!
