We took the portraits near August Lakes in Katy. She chose two different gowns to take her portraits in. This ivory tulle lace gown looked stunning on her!
Avesta did her hair and makeup for her session. She looked stunning.

Momma took the time to write out a letter to her sweet son….cue the tears!
A letter to my son.
Junie,
I cannot express to you enough how much I love you and how much better my life is with you in it. I have been hoping and praying for you since before you were even born. Before I was even in high school, I knew in my heart I would be a mother someday. Even more so than that, I knew my heart would be filled through adoption. As a child myself, I dreamed of who you might be. I imagined life with you. I imagined what your first steps would be like. I imagined what our bedtime routine would be. I imagined how loving and kind you would be. Before I was a foster mom, I knew someday I would be your forever mom, I just did not know you yet. Every single day through the licensing process I held onto the hope and prayer that someday my forever child would come through those doors. Through each high and low of fostering, I held onto that truth that you were out there somewhere.
In April of 2019 I received the message, “blind 2-year-old in shelter needs home.” I did not know if you were a boy or girl, what you looked like, or who you would be. I did not know then that you would be forever. All I knew that was that a child needed a home, and something in my heart told me without a doubt my home was yours. The first picture I received of you was a hospital picture as you were very sick. I studied every inch of your face and how beautiful you were. I looked at your picture each night and prayed for your healing and that you would thrive in my home as I awaited your arrival. My heart ached that you were in the hospital without a mom to hold your hand.
In May you finally moved in, but by then you already had my heart. From the day you arrived I struggled with the idea that you would someday leave and began to pray we would both be at peace however your case ended. From the second I saw you I knew there was something different about you. Everything in me knew you were meant to be my son. The worker who dropped you off from the shelter was in awe at how quickly you clung to me and snuggled into my chest. He explained that no one had been able to touch you because you were too scared, and that you must have sensed something in me to feel safe so quickly. I like to believe you sensed that I was meant to be your mom, too. Every second from that day forward was filled with joy. Even on our hardest days you radiated joy. Over the next year, I felt a wholeness in my heart that I never knew existed before – like everything was truly right.
In March of 2020, the biggest relief imaginable came when the judge ordered we move to adoptions! This child who I had imagined and dreamed of, this child who I prayed so hard for, this child who I hoped for each and every day, you were here! At first it was so surreal and almost seemed impossible… What I knew in my heart for the past year was finally a reality. Just 6 months later our adoption was finalized! September 29, 2020 will always be the day the light of my life became my forever son. I can not fathom life without you. Every single time I look at you I am in awe at how perfect you are. Every smile and every laugh ignites joy beyond measure in my heart. Every night I hold you as you drift off to sleep I am overwhelmed with feelings of peace. Every step you take, every milestone you reach, every new skill you learn, I am inspired. You are everything. I am beyond grateful to call myself your mom, and will wake up each day for the rest of my life blessed with your presence and excited to see what adventure awaits us!
With all the love in the world,
Mommy
Here are some more pictures from Junie’s adoption session! We travelled to San Antonio to capture these in front of the Court house that his adoption should have been at! Sadly Corona made it virtual.
Houston family photographer
Junie is seriously the sweetest little boy I have ever met. He kept running up to me and asking for a hug. You are just drawn to his kind and caring soul.
These in front of the courthouse are so special! I adore how these turned out.
His smiles are priceless.
Junie LOVESSSS his matcha drink. So what did we do after the session? We went to STARBUCKS! He was so excited!
Look at his face when he stole his momma’s coffee. MJ’s Photography- Houston family photographer

Annie Banannie makes the most beautiful and vintage dresses! If you haven’t seen her designs, you need to go look!! —-> Annie Banannie Website
She custom made this dress for our family portraits and I cannot wait to have Stephanie Ratto photography fly down to take them. Yes you read that right…I’m flying her down!

Of course before family portraits, I had to do a little session with Elise in her gorgeous Annie dress. Here are some of my favorites.
Which is your favorite?
I think this dress is the perfect neutral vintage dress. The built in petticoat just makes it perfect and gives it the right amount of “poof.”
The pockets are Elise’s favorites!
Photographing a two year old is a challenge, but the results are the most rewarding. You have to figure out what makes them happy. Each child is different, so it is my job to figure out how to make them come out of their shell in the small amount of time I have.

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.

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.

Same rug, same wrap, same baby. 6 months later! Oh how she has grown.
Look at this smile!
Beautiful Lottie joined us as well. She is such a sweet big sister. Look at these two. Two under two! I love doing outdoor child portraits as well as indoor!
