eila cake smash {babies}

there's nothing quite as cute as an adorable little girl playing with cake and getting it all over the place.  my god baby turned one and her mom and i thought it would be fun to smash some cake and watch her laugh.  eila really loves the camera and poses for it.  she had a great time and so did we!  it also didn't hurt that my aunt and uncle have one of the greatest kitchens ever for photography.

dallas blooms {landscapes}

'it's spring fever.  that is what the name of it is.  and when you've got it, you want - oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!' - twain

spring and summer are my favorite times of the year.  the flowers, the sunshine, the dresses and flip flops...it doesn't get any better.  i love the arboretum and dallas blooms.  this year was a lot of fun going with some friends and all of us taking photos.  starting with one of my lovely friend cortnye who i'm sure will hate me for posting this =)

the fonts {families}

in honor of mother's day i decided to post some pictures that i just finished editing....the font girls.  these three girls were so much fun to photograph!  running around, laughing, jumping on each other....just having a great time together.  they could all be actresses the way they were hamming it up at times.

happy mother's day to their mom kristie and all the mothers out there including the wonderful woman that gave birth to me!  love you mom!
