One Year Pictures! {New Braunfels Photographer}

Love it when the Mom shows up with a fully styled theme for her daughters One Year session!

 Quinn's mom rocked it! First a simple but hip cute outfit, then a few pics in the buff because what 1yr old isn't cute naked and then the ombre pinks with gold accents for the cake smash. She thought of everything! 

 

 

Happy 1st birthday sweet girl!

1st Birthday Photo Shoot {New Braunfels Photographer}

 I can remember my oldest daughters 1st birthday like it was yesterday! All of our family was there, she was wearing a pretty pink little dress, she didn't want much to do with the presents and then we brought out a big cake of cool whip! She started crying of course when we  put her in the middle of the table while every one's eyes were on her just waiting to see what she was going to do. Well...she tried it one or twice and that was it. But, I have all the different expressions and emotions documented and now made into a book. I just love being able to share these memories with the girls now that they can thumb through the book and ask questions about that special time in their lives!

Maybe that is why I enjoy capturing other little ones who are getting ready to celebrate their very 1st birthday...especially with Cake Smashes! They have so many great looks...happy, curious, surprised, mad,or just dazed by all the sugar!

It is already February and Love is in the Air! We had such fun at our 1st ever Valentine Mini-Sessions! So many cute guys and gals came out to show off their smiles and shared their love. 

Hello 2014! {New Braunfels Children and Family Photographer}

Wow...2013 sure came and went fast! It was a wonderful year for our family and for my business! I am just so thankful everyday that I get to help support our family by doing something I absolutely LOVE to-do. Now...don't get me wrong...during the crazy fall season I may seem a little stressed out BUT that doesn't mean I don't love it by the end of the day (or year)... because I still do!  I met almost 200 families this past year...some new faces and some awesome repeat clients! I am very excited to see what 2014 has in store for me, my family and Caressa Captures.

Here is a little sneak peek of some of my Fall Mini-Session Families. I couldn't share all of them on Facebook so they would be a Christmas card surprise!

Thank yall for trusting in me to capture your family's personality in 2013!

Fall 2012 Mini-Sessions {New Braunfels Photographer}

Here is a glimpse from each of my Mini Fall Sessions. So many wonderful fun-loving families greeted me with their smiles. We laughed, were silly and tried so hard to get "that moment" for each family. And my favorite part of all was getting their Christmas cards...I love to see how everyone uses them in different ways and which pictures they like!

  

 

  Thank yall...cant wait till next year!

 

Sneak Peek... {New Braunfels Family Photographer}

Here is Jenny, Steve and Adyson!

This 1yr cutie is so independent! She didn't care for mom & dad to hold

and cuddle her but was on the go the whole time!! I love her big teeth smile. 

Super Star with her pearls!

Happy 1st Birthday to Brinlee!

I took Brinlee's newborn pictures one year ago (twice...first time she cried for 2hrs but a few days later she finally ate and was so happy). I love getting the opportunity to watching newborns grow and change into little people!

This cutie patootie was so happy this morning...she loved playing with mom and dad, she totally loved the colorful balloons and she ate up my pearls...but it all changed at the very end when we broke out the cake smash...

she was NOT happy! ha

 

 

 

It was wonderful to hang out with yall again. Thank you for sharing your sweet girl with me! Gig 'em

Back to School Pics... {New Braunfels Children Photography}

This session was so much fun..even with my own kids...ha! They usually blow me off and give me fake smiles when I say "we are doing a little photo shoot" but they totally got into it this year! I am sure it because I let them pick their favorite books, write their name in the chalk board and wear silly glasses. But..wow...how old am I getting having a 2nd grader and my baby is in Pre-K...guess I need to start growing up too!

 

Doing this fun back to school shoot made me think that next year I am for sure doing this for others...it is so much better then the generic school pics.

 

Thanks for letting me show off my kids...they are such sweet girl.

 

Brody...aka...Clark Kent {New Braunfels Children Photography}

 

It's a bird, It's a plane, It's Superman!

If this little Clark Kent isnt one of the cutest superheros you have seen then I dont know what is! His momma had some great ideas with all the props and outfits...and his big personality really shines through in these pictures!   

  

 

Brody loves his puppy dog SAM too...he even has a superman dog collar!

The Edwards Family {New Braunfels Family Photographer}

This was an hour full of laughter and pure silliness with this little firecracker...Whitney! She was ready to pose and smile at every turn...not to mention as a whole this is a gorgeous family too. We met downtown and then ran over to their house and captured this beautiful sunset lighting and her awesome red curls!

 

 

 

Thank yall for making it a wonderful fun evening!

Miss Kinzley's 1st Birthday {Gruene Family Photography}

Kinzley's Mom brought lots of props...love her vision and double use of birthday decorations!!

Cant wait to see her grow!

Cute Breelyn...{New Braunfels Children Photographer}

I met up with this sweet 18 month old and her momma. She was full of questions. I love this age...they are like little sponges soaking up everything they can! She was constantly pointing and asking "dog?"   So darn cute!

   

And Finally...Breelyn had enough of the camera in her face so we took her to get a cupcake at 2Tarts in downtown New Braunfels. She was so excited and grabbed it and began eating...which made her REALLY happy!
