inspirational woman | Cypress Headshot Photographer
If you’ve ever been lucky enough to hear her talk, you’ll agree that she is inspirational. From her yearning to be a missionary as a young woman, to acting that out and doing it as a grown woman, and now leading Cypress residents in doing the same…Yes, she’s definitley inspirational.
I’ve only known Laura a few months, but she’ll agree that the moment we met, it was as if we were old friends. Laura is so sweet, so genuine, so full- full of faith, full of dreams, full of hope and full of love. I am truly blessed to know her and am inspired by her every time we talk.
A few weeks ago she asked me to take a photograph of her as she is being honored as an inspirational woman with an organization here in Houston. I happily obliged and the following are a few shots we got that day. You know how sometimes you have to force yourself to smile, and smile your real smile? Laura didn’t even have to try. I think she’s so happy (even though she might say she’s pessimistic), that her natural smile just comes out. take a peek:

check out my little guy | Cypress family photography
A few weeks ago, I asked my friend and fellow photographer to come out to my Andre’s flag football game. Now, I have to admit that I tried my hand at this sports photography thing. But you know what they say: stick to what you’re good at. So, with that being said, you can understand why I called Sonny out to come do his magic 
Sonny Cantu owns Gametime Photography and has been shooting action and sports for a long time…long enough to perfect it, which I think I won’t ever be able to do…I like my subjects sitting still (well, as still as they can get, anyway).
Check out Sonny’s work here: http://gametimephotos.com/ and leave some blog love for my little man Andre
Boys and Girls Country Fest Cancelled | Houston Family Photography
I’m heartbroken to have to share this news. I know the Boys and Girls Country work so hard throughout the year to make this event happen as it’s one of the biggest fundraising events they have to help care for their 88 boys and girls. Below is an email I received with more information. When I hear the news I’ll be sure to let you know!
After Quintes Stark, our Director of Operations, walked the grounds this morning after the downpour of rain last night, and vehicle-tested the possibility of parking 2000-3000 cars in an already soggy, muddy field that won’t be dry for a week….and with the likelihood that rain may continue as it has today….we are canceling the Spring Festival on-site event — for only the second time in almost two decades.
We had to make the decision today. Aztec Tents & Events was packed and ready to send their crew out here in the morning to set up all of our booths and tents. We felt relatively comfortable that we could get most of the event set up on mostly dry land, but we have no place that you and the friends you have recruited to volunteer with you could safely park.
We considered re-scheduling, but with the hundreds of volunteers and logistics involved, we knew that was not feasible.
We considered shuttling our guests from a paved parking lot further down on Roberts Road, but know that getting 3000 people back and forth to our festival would be a logistics nightmare.
But we also know that we desperately need the funds that would have been raised on Saturday.
So, what are we doing?
v We are canceling all the things that will cost money to save on expenses
v We are planning a Silent and Live Auction on line and through mail
v We will design other creative ways to communicate with our friends and donors to let them know how they can help.
I am so sorry that we cannot control the weather — or the land that floods around us. Other than that, we’re on it! Stay with us and stay tuned!
