My name is Wendi and I am a photographer from Houston, Texas. This blog follows both my personal and professional life. You will find images from my client sessions, and of my friends and family, as well as stories from my life as an often less than perfect mother and wife.

My husband is the only reason I am sane. We spend our non-working hours wrangling our two heathens...I mean wonderful children. The eldest is 4 and instists on being referred to as Mister Oliver, which no one will do, much to his dismay. The baby girl Audrey (also lovingly referred to as Pig), is trouble wrapped up in an adorable little curly haired package. This is our life; it is crazy; it is exhausting; I constantly get outsmarted by my kids; I keep my hair short so I can’t pull it out; and I cope by eating cereal…it is perfectly imperfect and I am trying to savor every moment.

Please buckle up and enjoy the ride!

-Wendi

happy birthday, reagan amani {houston birth photographer}

This girl knows how to make an entrance! I’m fairly certain that she is going to give her parent’s a run for their money!

I mean seriously, could you say NO to her? I didn’t think so.

(B & C – she is stunning, and you guys did AMAZING!!)

quick update {houston photographer}

August 27, 2010 – 3:52 am
I have a really full plate for the next 7-10 days – so please forgive me if I am not quick in responding to emails, messages and phone calls. I will be back in the game once I survive next week. :)

If you are waiting on a gallery, it might take me a few extra days to wrap them up, but I AM working on them.

Thank you all for understanding!!

PS – I haven’t forgotten about the holiday sessions…Santa is screening my calls so it is taking a bit longer than expected to get everything tied down. :)

julia: before & after {houston maternity/newborn photographer}

August 25, 2010 – 9:18 am

I know, I know…I have been really slacking around here.  I will try to blog my  way through the last few weeks (okay, I mean months) soon!

I photographed these two when they got married, and I couldn’t have been happier when they asked me to document the next stage of their life…

Fast-forward a couple weeks and little Miss Julia made her arrival.  She is seriously adorable and the kind of baby that makes you think “just one more might not be so bad.”  (And then reality sets in and you know that in insane!)  I can’t wait to watch her through this first year as she and her parents become a family.

I will be back to share her birth slideshow in the next few weeks.  :)

1.  I watch too much TV.  Is there a 12-step program for this?

2.  I LOVE her…like I want to squeeze her all day kind of love.  I can hardly stand the cuteness!

3. Just something about this I adore…can’t even explain what, I just do.

4.  You should all hop over to Smith Street Boutique and order yourself a “Story of Us” print because…

  • …they are super awesome and it would make  you WAY cool.
  • …the shop owner is my totally amazing  friend Beth Smith.
  • …I took the Smith Street picture in the store banner, which makes me WAY cool.
  • …I said so. (Hey it works on Oliver, so I thought I would give it a try. LOL)

5. I’m going to post my holiday/fall mini session schedule tomorrow.  The spots fill up quickly so pick your spot early!

6.

7.  I posted a video over on Facebook of Oliver talking…doesn’t seem like a big deal, but if you have ever met my son in person you probably think he is mute.

8.  My Pig will be starting preschool at the end of the month.  She will love it.  Her teachers will think she is sweet and adorable for the first 10 minutes…they will spend the rest of the year hiding from her in a closet.

9.  We finally worked through the ‘cheese’ camera face and now all I can get is a peace sign…where the hell did this come from??

10.  Mama Bear – always trying to make him alright.
