Spokesmodel Kickoff

This year over at BSP - we had a big spokesmodel team kickoff event at the White Sparrow Barn in Quinlan Texas. Each model was asked to bring along a friend. We had games and prizes and tons of food donated to us - a florist who donated all kinds of fun bouquets and flower crowns - just over 30 models, 7 stylists, 1 boutique, 2 kittens and a few baby piglets! It took a lot of planning and coordinating, but we pulled off a fun day and ended up with so many great images! 

Maggie kept everyone - models and stylists - on time and in the right places, Tim handled lighting all day long, and Tommy was the work horse/pack mule who did all of the hauling and errand running throughout the day! Thank heavens for my family and the support they give Big Shots Photography!

Steve & Mark Visit!

My oldest brother Steve and his hubby Mark came to visit just after Baby Emmitt was born. 

They live in South Carolina, so we don't see them as often as we would like - here are a few pics and a video gem of my mom!

Attempting to float the Comal river - notice the rain on the car window? It was a bust...
We shopped Gruene instead!

a friend challenged me on fb to post a pic of my husband everyday for 7 days. I knew I wouldn't keep up with that, so i cheated and posted this collage.

pre Emmitt photo that they texted me while they were visiting friends in Utah. I think this was Ethans first time seeing snow?

I work with a local  high school each year, taking their cap and gown yearbook photos. My partner snapped this beauty while we waited for the next batch of kids to come through -  I borrowed these glasses from one of the boys - we were a little bored...

My goal this year is to make the perfect Macaron - I'm struggling...

Maggie and Charlie and I stopped into the Magnolia store in Waco on what was possibly the hottest day in the history of EVER!

JJ takes Texas!

Maggie bestie Jaylynn has come to Texas! 

JJ is from California - they are roommates in Hawaii - but now she knows that 

Texas is the place to be!

She even bought some boots! This was from the FaceTime video while they were shopping - getting my opinion - JJ is very tall - just check those legs!
