Last weekend my husband's whole big family went to Surfside Beach near Freeport, Texas, for a relaxing little getaway.  We all packed into a beach house and spent our days swimming, sunning, fishing, eating, and laughing our heads off.  It was a pretty nice beach and a really great time, so of course I came back with lots and lots of photos to share!  Consider this the obligatory "what I did on my summer vacation" essay--but with pictures!

(By the way, Typepad seems to have implemented some sort of color management that I think makes the photos' colors look a bit wonky; if you think so too, click on the image and a larger photo will pop up--the color in the pop-up window looks loads better!)

Yesterday I got to shoot maternity portraits of one of my very good--and very beautiful--friends!  We've been planning this session for ages, and she's now about 34 weeks along and looking absolutely spectacular, so we finally made it happen.  We had a blast and got some really great shots in the process!  Here's a preview, but there are many more to come!

On Saturday I got to witness the marriage of my brother-in-law's wife's sister . . . but to make things a little less complicated, let's just call her the sweetest girl in the whole world!  The wedding was at a gorgeous cathedral in downtown Fort Worth and the reception was at the old Texas & Pacific train station.  And even though I was not (and am not!) the wedding photographer, everything was so incredibly beautiful that I just could not resist whipping out my camera.  Here are some of my favorites!
