Gonzalez Family

Have you ever seen a family look so good? You wouldn't know the wind was blowing 30mph the day we went out!! The pictures were shot at the TCU campus in Ft. Worth, TX. We had a great time laughing with the Gonzalez family. We enjoyed being a part of your day!

Blue Eyes

I had to post these from a recent session with the Rogers Family. Too cute! I guess all girls love their pearls.

Kiddos

We made our first trip to the Arboretum in 2009 this weekend with my brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and our neighbors George and Courtney. I think spring fever has officially set in the Cobbs household. We've been hibernating all winter - so much so that I wore my Hawaiian shirt 2 weeks ago the minute it hit 60 degrees here in Dallas (though, it was right in between 2 days where it was in the 30's and 40's). But, as Jenny just pointed out, it was me that's been held up all Winter; she and the kids have been outside regularly on good days. Regardless, the kids loved being able to run around freely for the day with no worries of cars or concrete. Afterwards, we went to Chuy's for some of the best Mexican food in Texas. What would the world be if tacos or chips & salsa had never been invented? I snapped a couple pics before we went to eat...

Beautiful Bride

I had to post these beautiful images of MY bride. After 5 years of marriage, she is still stunning. And she still strikes a pose for me...when I ask nicely. I was able to attend an all day seminar in Dallas two weeks ago of one of the best wedding photographers in the world right now, Australian Jerry Ghionis. I learned so much about lighting - especially how to take the ordinary and turn it into extraordinary. These images below are straight out of the camera - taken in our master bedroom. The only exception is that I sharpened both of them for the web and turned the 2nd into a black&white image. Enjoy.

One Year

We took Hayden's one year pictures last week. I've determined one year is the hardest age to shoot - you never quite know what they're going to do. Hayden was quite content, though, through most of it. We kept feeding him cheerios to keep him happy! A couple of our favorites:

Madelyn

Don't let this shy face fool you, Madelyn is as spunky as any 3 year old. After her shoot this weekend, while Jenny and I were visiting with her parents in our living room, she and our son Cooper climbed on our bed in the other room with their riding toys (think tricycle with 4 wheels)... we knew something was going on with the amount of giggling coming from the master bedroom. When we all walked in on them, they each grinned from ear to ear. When we asked Madelyn in our "stern" parenting voice, "Whose idea was this?," we got an immediate response, "Cooper's!." lol

Playful

Caroline was my model last weekend as I was playing around with new lighting and background colors. She's not as stationary as her brother when Dad is taking her picture, but I love her smile. I didn't know how the red background and dress would go with her hair...as I know from experience that us red heads usually clash with red clothing, red cars, red furniture, red anything...but I think she pulled it off:-)
