Indian Summer Princess!

We had so much fun on a perfect September day - the weather was cool and breezy, and the laughter was contagious! These are some of my favorite images from her session!

It's About Time!

This image was one of my favorites from last summer! I had to share it - the vertical composition, gorgeous colors and great smiles combined for a perfect portrait. I will be adding more of my favorite summer images in the next few days to inspire you - it's time to create some summer memories of your family, too!

Never a dull moment!

What a great year we have had at Lasting Images! We left our retail space in July after seven happy years there, to embark on a new creative adventure! It has been absolutely the most rewarding time I have had in photography working with my clients in their homes and treasured spaces to create "Art From Your Life". Look for a slideshow of some of our favorite images from the past six months. We are looking forward to a great new year filled with babies, children, seniors and families who really want to remember the moments and capture them in a fresh, creative way. The above image is one of our family in North Carolina this past summer. We had a blast! So glad we had an image to remember it with!!

Faces of 2011

We had a fabulous group photo session on location with our Senior Portrait Models - the Faces of 2011! They wore clothing from The Buckle and their new Faces t-shirts! It was so much fun to work with ten accomplished, enthusiastic and gorgeous seniors. This was one of our favorite images from the day - become a fan of our Facebook page: Lasting Images Photography to see more! We will be showing these and many more images from their individual sessions on Senior Portrait Nite, Thursday, November 11th, 2010 7 p.m. at Kelly Square!

Back from France and Italy!

After an amazing trip to Paris, Florence and Rome with my son, Jackson, and my parents, we are back for one of my favorite times of the year - autumn in Texas. The weather is perfect and the pie is always pumpkin, my favorite. Enjoy the football games, leaves falling and family portaits in beautiful settings for Lasting Images.

Who says it's too hot for Family Portraits?

Yes, it was hot. However, starting in the early evening, working with one of the most fun families ever, and photographing some of the prettiest land in Grayson County made for an amazing evening. These are just a couple of the images we created. . .

THE KING

Grayson, Mom, and Dad were so much fun to work with! He is a so sweet!

Art From Your Life!

We had a blast with the Rodriguez family this week as two of their young men leave for college! Having two seniors at one time has made life busy for everybody, but they took a moment to remember a milestone in the life of their family. These were just a few of the awesome images from their session!

Magnolia Gardens

Magnolia Gardens in South Carolina is one of the oldest gardens in this country! It was begun in 1676 and is still owned by the Drayton family who planted it all those years ago. We were surrounded by daffodils, magnolias, fruit trees and gorgeous views everywhere we looked. It was an amazing afternoon - full of inspiration!

Sisters in Springtime

We spent an afternoon on location in Magnolia Gardens near Charleston, South Carolina. This garden is gorgeous in the spring and I will post some of my landscape images next. I love the interaction between the girls and had a great time capturing all of the laughter and fun!

Check Out Our New Website!

After lots of hours of composing and thousands of images reviewed, we have unveiled our new website! We will be adding more images to our galleries in the future, and new music will be coming. I love the opening slideshow - it reminds me of some really fun sessions we have had. Enjoy and let us know what you think!

We did great at the Dallas Model and Talent Expo!

Garrett took top honors at the Dallas Model and Talent Expo for his Headshot and Comp card, both of which were created at Lasting Images! We are so happy for him and wish him the best of luck in all of his upcoming projects!

Sadie and Chase!

We were so blessed to be a part of this special wedding. Sadie was one of our Faces of 2008, and worked as my assistant before heading off to school to become a photographer. It was my priviledge to capture her lasting images at one of our most favorite weddings of all time. Special Occasions designed the stunning floral arrangements; and The Cake Stand in McKinney created a beautiful and delicious cake. Sadie and Chase are a truly beautful couple and so much fun!!! Enjoy just a few of our favorites. . .

Garrett - America's Next Top Model!

Garrett will be competing at the Model and Talent Expo in Dallas later this month. Last year, he took top honors and hopes to go for the gold this time! We loved working with him as he updated his portfolio. The Buckle helped pull together the perfect look with the blue and white shirts in the first image. We had a great time and look forward to hearing what the scouts and judges think!

Jordan

Jordan just had his hair cut by Patrick, at Garrett Patton Salon. All dressed up for a meeting, I asked if we could do a quick photo shoot! I love how these turned out!! I promised the scoop on a great new hair product for those who need volume and texture - it's called Dust It. It was demonstrated to us at Garrett Patton Salon when our Faces of 2010 went for a visit last week. It is amazing! Stop in for a demo and tell them we sent you!

Purrfect Pet Portraits Are In Full Swing!

Dexter was a perfect angel, contrary to his Halloween costume! We had so much fun with him! There is still time to book a session - we have a few openings left for Friday and Saturday!

Purrfect Pet Portraits!

Our daughter, Samantha, loves animals! She has been wanting to do something for her community this year. She came up with this special event idea for the studio! We will be donating a portion of the proceeds to Arfhouse Care-for-Life Canine Shelter. http://www.arfhouse.com/ Martha and her staff do a wonderful job with the animals they love and care for. They are one of the largest no-kill shelters in the country. We are so happy to be able to help with their work! Sessions are available for $25 per pet + 3 cans of Alpo or Pedigree dog food. This food is for the senior animals at Arfhouse who can no longer eat dry food. We hope you will call for an appointment today!
