The summer is rolling!!






Well it is definatley summer here in Texas! I think the highs for this week are 103 everyday! All I know is that it is hot hot out! Haley and I had fun the other evening snapping some pics inside the garage. The lighting was too great to pass up so I went and grabbed her from inside the air conditioned house.hehe. I got several cute shots! Haley just celebrated her 4th birthday and Mason will celebrate his 6th tomorrow. I can't beleive how big they are getting! We had a great party with friends and family this past weekend with a nice cool pool nearby! You can't have a party in Texas without a pool to jump in! Chad thought it would be fun to throw me into the pool fully clothed, he went in too though! It was all in good fun, he is also lucky my cell phone still works after the swim! Anyways, here are some shots of my big 4 year old girl and a couple of the party! As always I am still looking for new faces to build my portfolio and would love to book some sessions. Shoot me an email or give me a call!

Baby T, Candice Thomas Roanoke Ft. Worth, TX Photographer






I had the pleasure of having a session with this sweet 4 week old baby boy. He was so good for his Mom and I! He is my second newborn to shoot and I have to say I am loving doing newborns! Of course both the ones I have done so far have been real good sleepers! So here is a sneak peek of his session today. I hope his family enjoys them!

Summer is getting closer! Candice Thomas Keller Roanoke,TX photographer






Only two more days until we are officially on summer break!!! It is feeling like summer here for the past few days too. The mornings have been nice and cool thank goodness but it has been getting into the 90's by afternoon. The boys spent all weekend outside helping Dad do yard work. They are hard workers! I snapped some pictures of the gorgeous flowers that are blooming in the yard and Haley played. I did get some cute shots of the kids enjoying the outdoors this weekend. Oh and the best part of the entire weekend was that my awesome in laws bought us a patio set for our anniversary. Chad and I celebrated 10 years! I am looking forward to sitting in my set this summer and watching the kids play on our land. So much space to explore!

Slowly getting there





I have committed myself to my photography this summer and pray that I will have a site running by the end of it. I ran accross this site explaining custom photography and enjoyed it so much. It is all so true. Here is the website for anyone interested, http://www.professionalchildphotographer.com/information/?p=6. I know I thoroughly enjoy capturing those special moments in life whatever they may be. I love to come home and upload them to see exactly what moment I caught. It is amazing how many things a little picture can say or what they mean to one person. I just enjoy photography so much. I have a newborn to do this week and I am super excited. I had done one before and she was so much fun. I think the end results were great and Mom and Dad really loved them. For me to offer my perspective to someone is just amazing. Here are some of my favorite pictures of my newborn back in January. I can't wait to share the one from later this week!

The countdown begins......






Only one more week until the boys are out of school and summer is officially in full swing. I am excited and of course the kids are too!!! We have been busy with baseball these past few weeks. Mason finished his season but Tyler has a bit to go. We had a great Memorial day weekend with friends and family. Mason got to go with Dad and Papa fishing, he was so excited that he had no problems getting out of bed at 5 am to go. Now that is a true fisherman there. No way you could get me out of bed at 5 am to fish. I have been getting the camera out more and using my only half way willing model to do some mini shoots. Haley wanted to wear her gold princess gown the other day so we went out back and had some fun. I managed to get a few cute ones. Mostly though Haley had this horrified look on her face because there were bugs in the grass.haha. My sister is flying in today so I will spend the rest of the week with her and my niece, and hope to get some great pics of them as well!

Gorgeous weather





I am enjoying being out of school and having free time to work around the house. On top of it all the weather here has been gorgeous with perfect temps! We have done so much yard work around here and the place is starting to look really great! I snuck in some pics of Haley in between all our jobs around the house.
