Sweet Sweet Baby

The McDonald Family visited my studio this past week and I had so much fun working with them and getting to photograph their new little package! Ethan was such a good newborn to photograph and he let me do all kinds of fun poses with him! He was content the entire time and was a 100% natural model! Thanks Ethan...and Kelly & Chris for letting me work with you! You have such a sweetie and so much to look forward to! BTW-Over the holidays, my aunt taught me how to crochet so that I could stop spending money on all my props, hats, cocoons, etc. So-she made this blue set along with a couple others, but now, I am on a role and I have since made them in about every color!! Thanks Cathy!

Little Ashlynn, 3 mos

I know I am long overdue in postings...but since I have been out of town the past 5 weekends, the studio has been closed thus no pics to post! I did manage to squeeze in a few sessions during the week in between travels this past week. I had the pleasure of working with this little doll, Ashlynn. She didn't want to smile unless the camera was put away, but she looks adorable regardless! Thanks Ashlynn for being such a sweet baby to work with and I hope I get to work with you again in the future!!

Bluebonnet Day in March

Hey Everyone! The studio has been closed the last couple of weeks due to me traveling way too much! I will be gone again this weekend so if you would like to make an appointment, please call my studio and leave a message or email me at lauren.simpson@ymail.com.

I am planning on dedicating a day or two in the spring to drive to Brenham and take multiple family/children/senior/engagement/etc. pics in a field of bluebonnets. These will be mini (20 minute) sessions and at a cheaper rate then a regular session.

I am looking at the last weekend in March currently. March 27th. If this is something that might interest you for a Texas tradition or just for the beauty of the bluebonnets, please email and let me know so that I can plan on how much time and how many days to dedicate to this.

Brenham is about 1 1/2 hours from Houston, so you will be responsible for driving there. You can feel free to bring a picnic and/or snacks to have while you are there to enjoy the scenery as well!
