  • When we've left this earth, what will we leave behind?

    What things will our chidren and our grandchildren...even our great grandchildren...have to remember us by?

    Photographs are proof of our lives. Proof of its successes, its failures and the moments in between.

    Photographs aren't just paper. They are windows and doorways to the past.

    It is so important that we preserve the here and now so that when we are gone, we still live on through pictures.

    It is for this reason that I got started into photography and why photographs mean so much to me. Taking pictures isn't just a job to me, it's who I am and it's what makes me smile and brings me warmth. It's God's purpose for me.

    I would love to photograph you and your brilliant smile. Please take some time, look around the blog or any of the three websites and if you decide my style is what you want your memories to be captured in I'm just a phone call away.

    With great love and thanks,
    Amber

Eeeeeric :D ~ Houston, TX Portrait Photographer

Ok, here’s the story on Eric.

My husband coaches high school boys volleyball here in Houston for HVA (and has been doing it for years!)  When he and I first started dating nearly 10 1/2 yrs ago his team was well on their way to whoopin’ some serious tail at Nationals the following year (which they did…finishing 3rd in the country!)  Anyway, Eric was one of the players on that team.

From the first time I saw Eric I dubbed him “Abercrombie”  The hair, his personality, how freakn’ tall he is!……everything just screamed it to me.  Well in 2002 he graduated high school, went off to play volleyball out of state and then off to play in the European circuit.  Last summer he and my husband played in a couple beach tournaments together (you may recall some pictures I posted of the guys last year on the old blog).  Anyway….l told Eric then that I just had to take pictures of him.  Unfortunately, last summer came and went and no pictures ever took place, so when he came home this year I wasn’t letting his butt leave the states without victimizing him first!!

It’s no surprise that we waited until the last minute to take these pictures (just 3 days before he leaves for Finland) but I’m just STOKED that we finally got to do it!  The hubs and the kiddos got to tag along for the fun.  We had a great time!

Eric,

Thank you my love!  You were a great sport and these turned out so much better than I could have hoped.  I hope you, your momma and your beautiful Maria love ‘em!  Best of luck to you with the new team and we can’t wait to see you when you come home for Christmas.  Maybe we’ll do some cold weather photos…(in that stunning African shirt and leopard, eh-hem, bottoms of course;))

We love you and are very excited for what Finland has in store for you!

ox,

Andy, Amber & the gremlins

Ladies and gents….meet the newest setter for Finland’s mens professional volleyball team!  Eeeeeeric!

Mini-session Take One ~ Friendswood, TX Child & Family Photographer

I’m a little behind on posting this, and for that I apologize  It’s been a little crazy with back to school and I’m finally winding down enough to get around to this post.  Here are just a couple shots from the day:)

Feast your eyes on these OOBER CUTIES!

Sales! Sales! Sales! ~ Houston, TX Wedding & Portrait Photographer

Like it or not, the holidays will be here before we know it.  First the start of school…then comes Labor Day…then BAM! Halloween, followed by Thanksgiving then the mad rush of people shopping for Christmas!  Well, I want to make one gift easy for you this year:D  The once a year HI-Res DVD sale is going on between now and September 30th.  If you didn’t purchase your Hi-Res DVD but wanted to, now’s the perfect time to do it!!!

Also, I’m taking bookings for seniors for the 2010/2011 school year and offering some rockin’ incentives for anyone who books and completes their session in 2010.  Just check ‘em out…..

The birthday party plans have begun!!!

My baby girl’s 4th birthday is fast approaching, and with less than a month until the big day I’m in full party planning mode.  I have teamed up with some AMAZING vendors that are going to help me bring my vision of Alice’s Wonderland to life!!

How do you get your guests to attend the royal party???  With invitations of course!  And these little gems were hand designed, from scratch, by yours truly:D  I am so proud of how they turned out.  They are more than I had imagined in my head and I can’t wait for people to hold them and touch the texture of the paper.  The pics just don’t do them justice!

And of course, it’s not polite to not thank your guests for attending….so momma made custom thank you cards as well.

So here is a sneak peek at these sweet little invites:D  I can’t wait for y’all to see the cake and all the decorations that will come to life next month!  I’m so excited…and of course so is my Bug!  (she hugged me super tight with a “thank you mommy” when she got a peek at her invitations)

xo,

Amber:D
