Another senior close to my heart, who I was honored to photograph last weekend. I watched this one grow up too, and I couldn't be more proud of her!

I've been so bad about sharing sessions. Here's a favorite from a senior session this past weekend. And oh my heart! I've known this one since she was a year old. What a gift to watch her spread her wings and launch.

I had the privilege of photographing a couple of sweet friends at one of my favorite locations for their senior sessions.

This gorgeous mama rocked her maternity session despite frigid temperatures and hurricane strength winds (okay, not really, but man was it windy!). I did her bridal session a few years ago, and what an honor to now do her maternity pictures.

I'm praying many blessings and lots of strong coffee over you guys as you step into parenthood. It is such an amazing adventure!!

Oh my goodness you guys. I have many sessions I need to share. But for now, as I head to bed, I HAVE to share this image of a gorgeous mama to be! Her session was perfection. I'm hard-pressed to choose a favorite, but this is one of them! I'll share a few more tomorrow!

Hi friends! For anyone who might try to visit my website at www.melanieswanphoto.com, I wanted to let you know that it will no longer be available after March 3rd. My email address, [email protected] will also not be available. HOWEVER, I will still be here on FB. I'm just going to take some time to re access my online presence apart from FB and how I want that to look/work. I do have some big plans for sessions later this year, so stay tuned. :)

I'm so thrilled to have the honor of photographing some amazing 2022 seniors this year, and Nick is no exception. He brought his truck and his cowboy hat, which I loved! I have a lot of favorites from his session!

This sweet family is new to Texas and wanted some family pictures at their new home. I LOVE it when clients want a home session!! And I especially love adorable, smiley babies like this one! 🥰🥰

I have honestly lost count of how many times I have photographed this family. They are, without a doubt, some of the best people I know. It is such an honor to call them friends!

This is a sweet maternity session I shot late summer that never made it onto my page here!! There's no way I can not share this first-time mama and dad as they waited for their precious boy to arrive. These are a few of my favorites! 💙💙

I have known this sweet girl since she was in diapers. I've told her over and over again that she isn't allowed to grow up, but clearly she does not listen. Thank you for an evening full of laughs, Danixa!! You are so very loved!!!

I need to play catch up you guys! I have sessions to share, but first, I HAVE to share a few more favorites of this sweet family. When you have little ones, it's all about soaking in those fleeting years, days, and even moments. You can't get them back, so please don't miss them!!

Two quick favorites from this sweet Saturday morning session. Repeat families are simply the best! Each session I've done with this family has added one more boy to the pack, and ya'll, it just gets better and better with each precious face. 💙💙💙

This precious guy's mama grows the sweetest babies!! He is the bittiest of five and guaranteed to be loved BIG.

Today I bring you an absolutely stunning senior!! This sweet girl was a DREAM in front of the camera. I didn't want to stop, but an enormous storm with huge hail forced us to call it quits. I hated to walk away, but I'm so thrilled with all of the images we got. I can't wait to deliver her gallery to her!

I was honored to be asked to photograph this family under an old oak tree that is on Grandma and Grandpa's property before the property is sold. And not only was there a magnificent Oak, but also a gorgeous restored truck!! A photographer's dream, ya'll! Here are just a few from this session.
