Paik family Christmas photos… {Katy, TX – Family Photographer}

I love when I get the chance to photograph clients multiple times in a year.  Amy was pregnant when we did their family photos back in March and then Lauren was just a few days old when we did her newborn session, so it was a blast to have Lauren alert for this session.  Amy had told me a few weeks ago that she wanted to do a session with their Christmas pj’s!!  I had no idea what I was in for :)… we started the session out with everyday garb and grabbed a few photos by the tree and then outside because the day was BEAUTIFUL.  We then made our way back inside where all four of them, and even their dog put on their pj’s.  I have to say that I died when I saw them (they were ADORABLE and I LOVED THEM!!!!).  Amy, I love your creativity and spirit… and your family is ohh so amazing!  Thank you for calling me up again this year to photograph you guys, y’all were a lot of fun!!!  Here’s a few photos from the session...

When someone says “we’re really drawn to candid wedding photos,” I know exactly what they mean, but I also know it means something different to every couple. And honestly? That’s part of what I love about it. Because candid doesn’t mean chaotic, and it definitely doesn’t mean careless.  Candid means intentional presence. It means pausing […]

I took a trip to Knoxville, TN to document Sarah & Andy’s engagement session.  They wanted to do their session where they will be getting married in 2026 and it was the best decision ever!  Not only did I get to meet and hang out with Sarah & Andy, but I also was able to […]
