It was a gloriously perfect November afternoon. Rachel and Chris were both giddy with excitement to finally be husband and wife. Ever since I met them both this past May, I have never stopped being amazed at their electric energy. They are fun-filled to the brim and love life. This wedding was a perfect display […]

Dear Barrett, You’re 3! Oh my! I can’t believe how fast these past 3 years have gone. I just read over the last 2 letters I wrote you on your birthday. They made me all weepy because you’re growing up SO fast and I can’t seem to find the “pause” button. I made you take […]

Travis is a true outdoors man. He loves to hunt and it was a neat experience to be able to highlight his interests in that regard. They brought lots of neat ideas to the table including shooting his graduation cap and releasing a confetti gun. Travis has a contagious smile and it only got wider […]

Hope is one fun-loving senior and I loved having her represent the Bird & the Bicycle Photography this year! Her best friend Katie Grace accompanied us to each session and she was the best assistant always making Hope laugh! Hope is headed to Blinn in the fall to major in Horticulture. She loves spending time […]

When asked what he has been most proud of during his high school career, he shared that he is very proud of pole vaulting. I watched him pole vault in socks, and was equally terrified/impressed. I was really […]
