Hi! It’s me. The one trying to raise little ones and still pursue her passions. 🙋🏻‍♀️
Because for me, motherhood means sacrificing necessary parts of me, not all of me.
(No momma martyr here)
In fact, I believe I’m able to be a better momma to my wild baby boys when I continue to nurture who I am along with my talents, my dreams and my goals.

Now, the time doesn’t come easily with a hubs who works a lot and no family nearby.
I often feel frustrated and defeated by having to fight so hard for an hour here and 20 minutes there. And having to leave so many ideas on the drawing board. I mean I’m not trying to build an empire, just attempting to feed my creative soul with a morsel here and morsel there.

But I remind myself:
This is a season.

One day I’ll be cashing in tiny toes and baby squeals for hours to myself. A day I wish for and also wish away.
(Oof just made myself cry 😭)

So I guess I just wanted to encourage myself while also encouraging you, fellow mommas. We are worthy of fostering our talents and dreams, no matter how little or much time we’re able to devote to it. Because caring for ourselves and caring for our babies are one and the same.

**And thank you dear photography clients for choosing this momma. Even when the communication isn’t always timely and scheduling a session can take a few tries.
You are helping me feed my creative soul and I’m forever grateful.

One day I’ll get around to sharing all the beautiful people (like these) I got to photograph this Summer.

I’m so so happy I was able to pack in a whole crap load of amazing family mini sessions during my vacation home - 16 in 8 days to be exact! 🙌🏽🤪

Now editing my little heart out.
Can’t wait to (over)share!

Loved this recent pretty Spring light-filled session.

This beautiful fam was just so easy breezy and mellow.
I love that that comes through in the images.

That’s always my goal - not to give you the exact same looking images as another family but rather photos that are true to who YOU are as a family. @ El Mirasol

I see you, momma.
Holdin it all down.
Holdin it all together.
Managing the tangible and intangible.
Most goes unnoticed.
But I see you.
And I’m in awe.

You’re a powerhouse.
Even on the days you don’t feel like it.
You’re doing the good work.
The really hard, beautiful, exhausting, but always-worth-it work.
And you’re doing a damn fine job.

Positioned not posed is my jam.

I set you up and let the beauty and the chaos unfold - directing you all along the way.

This allows you to feel confident that you’re in the right spot to look the best (I’d never expect you to know how to stand or what to do with your hands) and relaxing into who you are as a family at the same time.

That combo yields this kind of sweet, true, frame-worthy goodness.

Marriage is equal parts ‘I would die without you’ and ‘for the love of god do you have to sneeze like that?!’

Piggies loving people are my kind of people.

And no there’s no other appropriate word for a tiny person’s toes.
It’s piggies or it’s nothin.

Took a little photo break & now recovering from a nasty deviated septum surgery. Woof.

Just wanted to pop in to say how CRAZY GRATEFUL I am for all my Fall session families.
Thank you friends, new & old (yes I consider all my photo clients friends - it’s in your contract😉)

It is always my joy, honor & privilege to serve you. @ San Antonio, Texas

My hope for your images is that they capture your true connection as a family & the season of life you’re in

If your home is bursting with playful energy and giggles...
If you’re navigating the teens & tweens with all the love, grace and patience you can muster...
If you’re in the midst of the blissful & foggy newborn days...

I want you to be able to not only look at your photos and remember that time but FEEL it in your bones.

Sent off this sweet and spunky family session today
If only I bottle up these babes energy!

We’re going to continue with the SISSY LOVE over here 💕

Already feeling the weight of this week - stress, anxiety, it’s was all there to greet me this morning.

Going to focus on the beauty in this world like this absolutely stunning & fierce momma who’s awaiting her 2nd precious baby boy.

Sent off this beautiful fam’s gallery tonight.
Lesley check your inbox!

Makes me giddy for y’all to see your images!

PS this momma was worried about her boys forced & often awkward smiles. But I pride myself on getting people to relax in front of my camera so I can’t wait for her to see all these sweet & natural smiles ☺️

Spit happens, y’all.
We laugh, we wipe it up, we get some fun & real images just like these

I know you can feel a lot of pressure for things to go perfectly during your session. But chances are if you have kids involved, it just won’t right?! And that’s ok!

The sneaky bo**er pick, a few tears and a momma snuggle, spit up down Dad’s shirt, are all just as photo worthy, in my opinion, as the pretty smiles & sweet glances.

My heart and my hope is to capture it all! To tell your family’s beautiful true-to-life story

SoTX Fall is that you?!
No? It isn’t?
Alright. I’ll try again next week.

Sincerely,
A very sweaty & frustrated resident that would very much appreciate some reprieve 🥵

That sweet ‘poke you in the eye with a stick and then hold you when you cry’ kind of sibling love 💕

Almost felt like Fall with these overcast skies & pretty colors.
But SoTX - so it was 75° and humid as all heck

That light. This beautiful fam. Their Fall colors. *swoon*
If you have a Fall photo session coming up still, I’ve got a few simple outfit ideas for you in stories tonight
Wearing something new for your shoot can be fun & good outfits can definitely add a little somethin to your photos, but at the end of the day those stylish clothes will always take a back seat to your family’s beautiful, happy faces!
I promise!
PS - Is it a thing to be jealous of a baby’s eyelashes?
Because just LOOK! @ San Antonio, Texas
