I did a combo photo session for the Wanko sisters (Mary Clement & Michele Broome) with their daughters. These were Ellie Grace's (Mary) 1 year old & Kate's (Michele) 5 month old portraits. We got some stunning photos - the Wanko genes work pretty good, huh?

These are only a few of my favorite shots!

Thank you once again for having me do these!

The Burton Family Shot by TTP

02.23.10

Melissa contacted me a while back and said she wanted to get her side of the family together to do some portraits with all the "grandkids" together, plus this and that. I have always loved her - such a bubbly personality. She married my cousin, Christian Bourgeois, and they're residing in Florida now. A cool fact - she picked up some American Sign Language because they live in St. Augustine where the Florida School for the Deaf & Blind is!

Groovy family. We did her family, Tony's (Melissa's bro) family, their parents, all the kids, and all the above! Tony has five kids and Melissa has one - they're all an adorable bunch as shown below in this entry!

Enjoy the photos, and leave some comment love for them to read!

Thanks to the Burton & Bourgeois family for having me do such special photos!

Back from RIO!

02.22.10

We're back from Rio De Janeiro, Brasil! What a marvelous trip it was. I want to post tons of photos but right now I really need to get some work done for clients so I can stay on top of things. I'll play around with more photos tonight after my workday.

Enjoy these snapshots for now at least!

The two photos above were taken by our new friend, Pedro Bentes!

Below, here's a snapshot I took of Jesus from Antonia's bathroom! I love this one.

More to come as soon as we can!

Margo's Lola

02.10.10

Margo asked me to do Lola's two year old photos and I just love how they came out! Her birthday party the following day was Minnie Mouse themed so she wanted some in her birthday outfit as well.

Thanks Margo!

I love the fact her "bloomer leggings" are out of whack above. Gives it personality!

Michelle & Richie Engaged!

02.08.10

I met up with Michelle and Richie two weeks ago to do their engagement session at the LSU Rural Museum off of Essen Lane in Baton Rouge. What a nice place to do a photo session...... (minus the fee for photographers to use the place - it was pretty steep!)

I love how we got these captures! The weather was really overcast but that usually works for me because I have more control around the area.

I can't wait till their big day arrives in March - it'll be so wonderful photographing their wedding.
