Greater Houston Area Children and Family Photography | Christie Lacy

I don’t have much time to post today (it’s my hubby’s birthday!)  but just wanted to share with you this fantastic family session!

We were so worried. Worried that the temperture would be too cool, worried that it would be raining, worried for the wind. For 3 days prior I kept checking my weather app on my iPhone to see if there’d been any change to what was supposed to be a gloomy cold Saturday. Even that morning I begged and pleaded that God would give me beautiful blue skies and warmth.

I met them at our location with excitement. This family had won a silent auction item at the annual Wee Wuns Fall Festival. The grandmother had set it up so that I would photograph her whole family, including her two daughters and their families. One drove all the way from Austin and I’m sure she was just as worried as I about the weather!

But, in the end, the sun did shine, the rain did stop. And I do think we had a fantastic time! Here’s just a peek of the fun!

I wanted to share with you a slideshow of the I family (you saw a few of their photos a couple posts back). As I was editing them I was completely thrilled with the gorgeous light that was available and all the vivid colors! I couldn’t help but share that joy with you too! Please take a look! It may take a minute to load, but as always, totally worth it!!

Back in November, my friend Ashlee had asked me if  I be available to photograph her family for her mother-in-law.  While normally I have all of December off,  I  did make this exception. One reason is because I love Ashlee so much, another reason was because it was a surprise, but the most important reason was because this wasn’t just for Grandma, this was for them:

You’ll find me talking more and more about this throughout this year.  I love photography, and  I love  capturing  memories. But more than all of that, I want my kiddos to have something for themselves when they are my age. Something beautiful and creative, something that shows them how happy they are and how wonderful and beautiful life is.

I’m making this for your children so that they can have these same things. Because, afterall,  isn’t everything we do for them?

I hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving! We enjoyed the long weekend at home spending time with each other being grateful for all of our blessings. It was nice to just chill and not have any expectations put upon us! I am wrapping up my sessions for the year and only have a few more to proof before I call it quits for 2009! I can’t wait to come back in January and share some awesome promotions with you! If you are looking forward to a session with CLP next year, you’ll want to check the blog the first week of January for an awesome birthday celebration sale! It will only last 3 days but will be awesome!!

I just had to share more from a session I had with my trainer Kendall’s family! take a peek!
