Magin Grandkids * Chelsea Lietz Photography

I grew up with the Magin family and was extremely honored when I was asked to photograph their grandchildren.  They have been blessed 5 times over.

We had a blast with a picnic, some cane pole fishing (not shown), and some stylized shots at the ranch and studio.  Photographing four wiggly children is not easy, nor are infants that cannot yet sit up on their own.. but this was a welcome challenge!  Photoshop is my friend.

Meet Luke, Phillip, Paige, & Riley…

Baylor’s Birth Story * San Antonio Birth Photographer

When the Wyatt family prepared to bring their third baby boy into the world, I was so honored to be a part of his birthday.  Capturing these once in a (brand new) lifetime moments are such a treat and always fill my heart. Birth photography is truly something special.

Sweet Baylor arrived in peace with a calm mama who only pushed twice, a Daddy who provided steadfast support and comic relief, and a more than competent staff. He was soon surrounded by his proud and curious big brothers.

Congratulations Wyatt family and thank you for letting me photograph your very own miracle.

Welcome earthside, Baylor.

Chloe * Stone Oak Child Photographer

Sweet Chloe came to the ranch for a make-up mini session that was rained out.  This time we had a beautiful evening to go with such a beautiful child.  She made me work for some smiles, but it was worth it!  I even had Chloe’s mama and aunt acting silly to loosen her up… I am not ashamed to admit that I act like a fool on a regular basis in order to get real smiles.  🙂

Hannah is One! * First Birthday Cake Smash * San Antonio

Sweet Hannah came to see me for her 12 month portraits and she brought plenty of personality!  We enjoyed playing outside for the first half of the shoot and then headed in the studio. I adored her baby curls.

And she adored cake!  Her first birthday cake smash session was a good one.  Check out all of her (icing covered) expressions…

Texas Longhorn Newborn Portraits * Baby Boy Holden * Stone Oak Newborn Photographer

Sweet baby Holden came to my studio from Stone Oak and was the sweetest angel during his newborn session.   He even flashed a smile and dimple!  He was so content all curled up and swaddled.  By Mom & Dad’s request he showed some Texas Longhorn pride with one of my favorite newborn props, my Bevo hat. The Eyes of Texas are upon you, Holden!  Hook ’em!
