Newborn photographer – Memorial Houston – MJ’s Photography
Sweet Karmyn during her newborn session. Mommy drove her and her family all the way from Killeen to my studio in Fulshear. Over 3 hours, thats dedication!
Isn’t she a doll? I love her in this color. Of course we had to include daddy’s army uniform. I love Army babies! They are so fun to capture.
I am so in love with this bucket pose. Those little hands on those cheeks!
Look how gorgeous momma is. Her little mini me. Look how perfect they are.
Sibling portraits are always the best. We all know mom just wants a portrait of both of her babies. It is no easy task when big brother is under 2, but we did it. And I love how they turned out

Daddy and his baby girl. Isn’t it perfect?
Their first family portrait with a family of four.
Here are some more favorites from her session. I love the little bear ears! And her little smirk is so perfect.
These black and whites!!! <3 I love black and whites so much.
MJ’s Photography is a Wincrest Falls – Houston photographer.
This family is seriously magazine worthy. They just give me all the feels!
Look at these two? He is the sweetest big brother and I love this one of them two! It’s going to look amazing on their wall in my imported wood blocks!
Doing family portraits is so important! We all know how fast our babies grow and it’s so important to capture them with you. When they are grown, they will look back on these and smile.
My clients love displaying their wall art in different wall art options. From Wood blocks to metal prints, I will make your dream wall decor! This wood block collage is going to look so amazing on their walls. I have wood, metal, acrylic, framed with glass, and framed canvas pieces to choose from.
Look at those smiles. So in love with this one.
Momma with her babies. We all know how often us moms get behind the camera and get that picture with our babies. Not…very…often. Let’s make that happen! To inquire click here
Look at this proud daddy with his baby girl.
Momma and her girl.
Momma’s boy! The way he is looking at her is everything.
I love capturing just mom and dad. Usually when I ask when the last time you got portraits as a couple they say….ummmm our wedding! Time to change that! Look how gorgeous these two are.
This is my favorite family portrait from their session!! I just love everything about it! Look at that sibling bond.
It is never to early to book. I am booking into February of 2020.
3.5 years…. 42 months…. roughly 1,260 days…. It took less time than many couples who are plagued with infertility to have a child, but we still felt every moment of that wait. After trying to conceive with IVF last spring and being told at 32 that my egg quality was similar to that of a woman ten years my senior, we immediately decided to pursue adoption.
We became active with our agency August 9, 2018, just four months after our failed transfer. In January 2019 we attempted to get licensed with a foster care agency because there was 5 year old girl we desperately wanted to adopt- Aubrey. I had dreams for months after our IVF transfer that had a little girl, about 5 years old, that was our daughter. When I saw Aubrey’s face in a news story searching for an adoptive home I immediately recognized it. It was her. The little girl in my dreams…. our daughter. Since the embryo we transferred was a female, I had always assumed the connection was my subconscious telling me she was okay and that it was okay for us to continue to pursue adoption. When I saw her face everything in my soul told me this was more than a coincidence. We put our names on hold with our agency and decided to pursue foster-to-adopt in the hopes that we could become Aubrey’s parents. I just KNEW that she was meant to be ours. She resembled me when I was little in addition to being identical to the girl in my dreams. Getting licensed through foster care takes months and by the time we were close to having everything completed, a home had been selected for Aubrey. We were heartbroken. We called our agency and asked to have our names put back on their list in March. She told us the previous two months had been a very busy time with the agency and that she had placed multiple children in that time frame. I remember being so frustrated with our detour and doubting our decision to take a two month hiatus.

On April 23 my husband and I were both at work and I got a call. I didn’t recognize the number and I was in a patient’s room so I did not answer. I finished up with my patient and went into the break room to check my voicemail. It was our agency asking me to call back ASAP. My heart was racing as I hit redial. She didn’t answer. I was so anxious that I could barely catch my breath when the number showed up on my caller ID again. I answered with my voice quivering as she told me about a “unique situation” she had and asked if we would be open to it. It wasn’t an infant, but it was a little boy that was 5 months old. She had already talked to my husband (which is why she didn’t answer the phone when I called) and he said he would rather her talk to me about it. To spare details I will say the adoption had some risk of us not being able to keep him.
It was a risk I was ready to take without hesitation.
My very logical husband wanted to discuss every angle and possibility, but ultimately said the decision was mine. I called the agency back and asked when we could pick him up. We drove 3.5 hours each way to pick him up the very next day and he has been our son since the moment we laid eyes on him. Legally we remained in a risk period until the end of August so the first four months we were on pins and needles waiting for a call that could potentially turn our wold upside down- either we would be able to keep him through the next legal step, or that we would have to return him to his birth family. We soaked up every moment we could with him.
When the end of August came and we finally finished the legal battles, there was an overwhelming sense of relief. In the state of Texas it’s required that a child live in your home for six months before you can finalize their adoption. October 24 marked six months and the judge ordered that he was officially our son on November 7, 2019. The wait was long and we doubted ourselves and our decisions at every turn, but ultimately we had to endure it all.
Every little turn, every detour, every time we felt we took one step forward and two steps back- it was all part of the journey to our son.
Our perfect baby boy who has his Papa’s grin and my innate ability to fall asleep 3 seconds into a car ride- just one different step or hesitation could have thrown us off our course to him. We are thankful for every second of this journey, thankful for every sign that the universe sent telling us to keep going and not doubt ourselves, and thankful for the love and support our family and friends have shown and continue to show for us and our son.
Most especially we are grateful to his birth momma, C, who put his needs before her own and made one of the most difficult decisions a mother can ever have to make. We cannot imagine life without this precious gift that she so selflessly gave us, and she will always have a place in our hearts!
Here is the adoption day through pictures! MJ- Houston Photographer
Waiting for the Judge to come make us official!
It is TIME!!!
When they asked “Are you ready to be his mommy forever?” We all teared up. She didn’t hesitate and said YES!!!!

Sweet newborn Blake with the sweetest wrinkles.
Drew is now the sweetest big brother to Blake. Do not be fooled, this portrait was no easy task. Big brother wanted to ride around a tricycle instead of take pictures, I mean who wouldn’t.
Are they not the most gorgeous family you have seen? I’m so in love with their portraits!
Daddy is a State Trooper in the Galveston / Houston area. You guessed it, we had to include a setup with all of his gear. I’m so in love with how they turned out.

Jiamyiah traveled over 3 hours to me for her maternity portraits with MJ and I am so glad she did. I found this gorgeous location in Katy, Texas and I just knew it would fit her maternity session perfectly.
Jiamyiah will be welcoming her sweet baby girl in the next couple of months and I cannot wait to capture her newborn portraits. They are going to turn out amazing.
Such a stunning momma. That golden backlight just adds that perfect look!
How cute is he? I cannot handle him! Mom said he perfect on the car ride and he was surely perfect during the session.
Hidden Falls photographer – MJ’s Photography
Look at that smile.
This golden light!!! <3 Isn’t it stunning?
Their gorgeous family. Soon to be four.
We ran to the waterfall at the last minute to capture the last bit of the sun!

Guancarlo came in at a week old and so much hair! Look at how much beautiful hair he has.
I am in love with his perfect little pose. What is cuter than a baby cuddled up on a pillow?
Brothers. A forever best friend. Typically sibling photos are a hit or miss. Either big brother or sister loves holding their new baby or they want nothing to do with them. Adrian LOVES his brother and was all about posing and smiling with his baby brother. Mom had plenty to choose from.
I’m so glad mom decided to get into some portraits as well. She is simply stunning and I adore the color gown she chose to wear.
Mom loved the digital composites during our newborn session consultation beforehand, so I made sure to include a couple of sweet Guancarlo. She chose these two newborn composites and I’m so glad she did.
This sweet little pose of him and his little hand under his face…I simply cannot get enough of it. I would love to stare at it all day!
Mom chose this wall art for her home! She did so well choosing her Wooden portrait blocks. Her walls are going to be beautiful with this display!

Melissa contacted me before I moved to the Katy area about her maternity and newborn portraits. Once I moved down to Houston, we had a wonderful consultation at her house in Conroe, Texas. We got to look at possible wall art locations, get to know each other, look at products, as well as try on lots of gowns! The fun part!
Melissa’s favorite was the Burgundy gown. I love this gown on her. It is such a perfect color for the scenery she envisioned. She is 33 weeks and looks so perfect pregnant. I love the deep and beautiful colors here.
How gorgeous does she look in this forest? Her hair and makeup was done by the amazing Aventa. Check her out for all of your beauty needs!
Kevin’s favorite gown was the rust gown. He said that she looked like a “nature goddess.” I do love this one on her. It goes perfectly with the crown that she made! Isn’t she glowing. The sun is stunning too.
I’m obsessed with this one. This dress, this pose, and that perfect baby belly. I can’t wait to meet little Auiden. He is already so loved. The excitement his momma had just showing me his chubby little cheeks in his 4D ultrasound photo, just made me even more excited for his newborn session.
Here are some more favorites. These maternity portraits were taken in Katy, Texas. Maternity photographer Katy TX
The last gown is the gold gown. The fancy gown as we called it. Kevin was all dressed up to match his beautiful wife. I love these so much! I would put these all over my walls if they were me!
Kevin tossed the gown for us to give us that flowy look. On one toss he threw it completely over her head! He practiced just a little to hard for this maternity session.
Which maternity portrait is your favorite? Can you guess which one was moms favorite? I’ll post it below! I love the dress flow in this maternity portrait.

Isn’t he handsome? His perfect little newborn lips are puckered in the cutest way. I adore him on the hunter green backdrop by Hello Little! It looks so great with his olive skin tone.
Big brother was the cutest! He was so in love with his brother and you could tell. Mommy is so lucky to have two beautiful babies!

Momma loved the digital composites in my newborn session consultation. I made sure to include a couple of them for her to choose from. This one with this sweet baby boy sleeping in a wreath is my favorite! Digital art is such an amazing way to display your baby’s newborn portraits on your wall.
Here is another favorite of moms. He looks so peaceful in this composite. This one is going to look amazing displayed in their home. This is a newborn picture that her visitors are going to oooh and ahhh at! Which is your favorite?
Including a little pillow in a newborn pose, in Fulshear Texas, has got to be my favorite. Look how sweet he looks cuddled up with it. His little newborn toes just make me smile.

I love when moms decide to be included in the session. How often are we the one’s left taking all of the pictures of our babies and we are not in them? It’s so important to get in the portraits! Our babies are going to want to see pictures of them little with their mommy!
I know looking back at my newborn baby pictures, there are not many with my mom. I would give anything to be able to see one of her with me as a newborn. It’s such a special time for baby and for mom. Let me capture it!
His sweet little hands on his newborn cheeks give me all of the feels! Such a perfect baby boy. Baby lips, baby toes, baby cheeks, and baby fingers. Top ten favorite things.
I could stare at him all day long. What is your favorite thing about this newborn portrait?

I had the honor of photographing the Forrestier family this past week. Tabitha is the owner of Annie Banannie Clothing. She made the girls dresses and the boys vests in this portrait. Go check her out!
This momma rocks being a mom of 6, homeschooling, and OWNING her own business! How incredible is that. Dad owns his own business as well!
Daddy and his babies. The golden hour is so stunning. I love the deep orange and saturation that it brings.
Momma and her babies. All six babies.
Fun fact: Annie Banannie is named after their oldest daughter…Annie! This dress is releasing this week…better run!! Aren’t all the dresses stunning?
Mom wanted a special portrait of just her and her girls. They are absolutely stunning during this Texas sunset.
Here are some more family favorites. I just love all of the candid portraits of them together. I am a huge black and white fan, these really speak to me in black and white!
All 6 of their gorgeous babies. They are so well mannered and extra sweet.
Of course we had to get some of them as a couple. Aren’t they perfect? I love getting images of just mom and dad. How often does this happen?

Cypress family photographer – You can’t possible see the beauty of this mountain through a portrait. I tried my best, but this scenery is jaw dropping.
The anxiety of getting this perfect portrait was over the top. Being flown over 2000 miles and knowing that they want a 30×45 acrylic print of this in their house, made me extremely anxious! But we got it! <3
We did two locations in front of Mt. Rainier, this was another. We only had around 3-4 minutes because there was a big group of landscape photographer behind us trying to photograph the sunset on Mt. Rainier.
Aren’t they perfect? Can’t imagine a better couple.
While waiting for the sun to be perfect for the mountain shots, we went into a valley to capture some other family portraits.
I can’t get over Carson’s face here! <3
Day 2 we did another session is a field. Just wait for these! I am so in love. Cypress family photographer
The smiles and the happiness you can feel from looking at their babies sweet faces, make this session everything. There will be a time when you can no longer hold them in your arms, swing them in the air, or kiss them all over. When that time comes, it will mean everything to look back at these portraits and feel the memories.
(Just typing that, I had to run to my babies and kiss them all over…go ahead and do it to yours) <3
Momma and her girl. My main goal on day 2 was to get an amazing portrait of mommy with each of her babies.
Now this one I am SO proud of. If you know Carson, you know he brings Wild to the nickname Wild child lol! He is so fun and full of energy, so getting him to snuggle for a picture is not on his agenda. So this one is everything! And isn’t momma gorgeous? Mannnnnn she looks good!
Momma with both of her kiddos! I love this one showing Kaleigh’s missing tooth!
Here are some more family favorites! Such sweet smiles.
