A day in Galveston with Mathias and Parker

Are these two not adorable?!  I have had the luck of photographing these two over the years (Mathias since he was two!), and it has been awesome to watch them grow.  For a brother and sister to get along so well on a photo shoot is awesome, and makes for some truly great photos!  Soon I will share some very early pics of Mathias on the trolley in Galveston - that were shot on film, no less.  It was perfect to get to meet them in Galveston, and use one of my old favorite beach locations, as well as a new one I'd been wanting to use forever.  It was a very successful and fun shoot, overall.  It was just too hard to choose a few, so I added a bunch!

Galveston Island Witches' Ball 2014

This is always a fun event to shoot, and I've had the privilege of covering it for the last 3 years.  This time Christy got to shoot with me for a while, and as always, she got some great shots.  We also finally got to see Two Star Symphony!!  They made for a fantastic opener to the event.  The Witches' Ball is put on every year by Clyde and Kim Wood of The Witchery in Galveston.  If you don't know the store, go check it out.  It's one of a kind!  The proceeds from the event go to the Galveston Island Humane Society.  Great fun for a great cause.  This year's costumes did not disappoint.  Here are a few of my favorite images from the night.

Elizabeth and Spencer - A Wedding in Late Spring

A beautiful Spring day and the Tiki Island chapel made a nice setting for a lovely wedding for these two.  The amazing Aaron Soderberg assisted me on on this one, and did an excellent job (as always)!

Kaitlyn and Mikayla Senior Portraits - Galveston East Beach and Strand

*Special for seniors… Rate is $125 for a session if you book it before the end of April (The session itself can take place anytime throughout the year)*

Two of my cousins (who are sisters) needed some senior portraits, so I was more than happy to help out! I'd found a couple of really great locations on the Strand in Galveston soon before these were taken, so I used them to our advantage.  From there, we moved on to my favorite near-town area of the beach on the East end of the island.  It also happened to be a beautiful (windy) day, and I'm always appreciative of those.
