HAPPY BIRTHDAY Miss Piggy!!!! This her first birthday cake smash shoot. Too funny!

To book your cake smash session for your baby or your that special pet contact [email protected] for scheduling and availability.

This bulldog comes from the finest bulldog breeder out of Dallas Texas. DSK Bulldogs. Mike Tucker (owner) raises beautiful healthy family pets and has the highest standards for his dogs. He's a wonderful person and takes such pride in producing healthy dogs. He's an upstanding guy who truly cares for his dogs and for the new owners. He isn't one of those breeders that take your money and run. He's there for you whenever you have questions. I've called him for help with training, behavior and veterinary questions. He's actually saved me a few trips to the vet. When we got our Miss Piggy we not only got a sweet and lovable bulldog but also acquired a new friend in Mike. I can't say enough good things about him. Here is his contact information if you're ever looking for a bulldog puppy. DSK Bulldogs Website and here is his Facebook page. DSK Bulldogs Facebook page

Miller Family-South Padre Island

One of the things I love the most about photography is how lucky I am to be a part of memory making for families. To be allowed to interact with them, and be part of a moment in their lives, and to be trusted with such special memories, is such a privilege. Not to mention this is probably one the sweetest families I've ever worked with. I truly enjoyed spending the afternoon with them on the beach.

I normally don't show what goes into creating a composite fine art photography piece because I don't want to take away from the magic of it but I thought I would fill you all in to the work that goes into it.

Ok, so I really wanted to showcase a milestone in my daughters life while she was at this age of loving princesses and having long hair down to her waist. I had imagined Rapunzel sitting on the ledge of her castle window with her pet chameleon. I didn't have a castle to photograph her on, especially here in McAllen or really the entire scene. The whole thing needed to be created from scratch. So I went into my backyard and saw the tree house part of her swing set. Light bulb!! All these ideas flowed into my mind of how to create this scene. I went into my prop stash and picked out florals and greenery. Next, I braided her hair with ribbon and flowers. The problem was that her hair wasn't long enough, I didn't have a chameleon, or a castle. This is where I new I would have to composite some images in during post production. Oh photoshop!....the relationship we have,... is love-hate! That's another story.

Anyway, I researched some stock images online that I could use and studied how the light fell on the them. That way they would fit into my scene with the correct lighting. I also photographed her hair in several different ways so that I could composite several pieces to add length at the end.

Overall an image like this takes methodical planning and hours and hours of post production time on the computer. It's not just a photograph, it's a piece of art. The final product will be printed on fine art giclee paper, with hand torn and painted edges and framed.
