Boys Will Be...BOYS!

When asked if I could do a photo shoot of four senior boys at the same time...I JUMPED at the opportunity. Most photographers know that boys very rarely like to actually have their picture taken, so photographers usually have an over abundance of girls and on rare occassions might have a boy.

These four have been on the same soccer team since they were little with the same coach, Coach K. This photo shoot was fun, hilarious, and insane all in one.

So without further adieu meet these Senior Boys....

Meet Colt...

Meet Gage...

Meet Shaun...

Meet Thomas...

The Crew...

The Goof Troops...





The Team...







“Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose.”
----Tennessee Williams

May we all choose those friends that love the same things we do, jump in green suits just for some good laughs, and make life a BLAST!

Boys, thanks for the laughs and allowing me to help capture memories to last a life time. I wish you all the best. An early congrats to you all!

XOXO,
Laura Loo

Client Spotlight: Andrea

Well, this session was very near and dear to me. It was of my cousin, Andrea, who will be graduating from high school May 28th! When did she GROW UP? I guess when she become old enough to drive, too old for mud pies, ditched the big hair bows, big fluffy dresses, and barbie dolls...insane in the membrane! She is turning into a woman right before my eyes and it just pulls at my heart strings. I love this girl, not just because I call her cousin, but also because she laughs at my jokes, is always happy-go-lucky when I see her, and she would give anything for anyone she calls family or friend. She has such a big heart of gold and a beautiful smile to compliment her sweet, down-to-earth personality. Now, let's get to those beautiful pictures shall we?

to watch a Senior embark on the journey of finding who they are in this big world, is just too cool...


now this is a girl that appreciates the cutest color of colors...PINK! I want these boots.


I'm beginning to think my camera has a little crush on Andrea, aren't you?


Okay, now i'm convinced my camera has a crush on Andrea...:)


I think the grass was crushin to...


a favorite, fo'sho!


confession:I want hair that blows beautiful in the wind like Andrea's...always have, I've begged her since like FOREVER to let me have it...check out the bottom left blowing hair picture...HOTT!


now this picture sums this photo shoot and EVERY TIME we hangout...LOTS OF LAUGHTER! :)


SO PROUD OF YOU DREAAAAAAAAAA! :)
XOXO,
Your bestest, coolest, funniest cousin, Laura Loo ;)

Sneak-a-roos: Meet Senior Andrea & Baby Hannah

As I edit these pictures I can't stop singing "WE ARE FAMILY"...because that's exactly what these two beautiful girls are to me. One is a graduating cousin that I can't believe is even driving and the other is a baby cousin that brings such big smiles to everyone who meets her! I loved spending part of my day with both of them yesterday...lots of laughter, smiles, and silliness filled the West Texas air! :)

I can't wait to edit more and show them off, but for right now these few sneak-a-roos will have to do!

Enjoy....

meet Andrea....



I asked her if I could borrow her hair, or know her secret to her luscious long locks...she said her secret is..."whatever shampoo her mom buys!"


One of my favorite things is making this girl laugh...she makes me feel so funny and laughs at my jokes so I'm not just laughing at myself, I HAVE SOMEONE LAUGHING WITH ME, or at me? Either way I love her so much for it! :)

Meet baby Hannah....
**warning she is ridiculously cute & round so this makes you want to squeeze her but she would rather just play around and laugh at herself...my kind of girl! :)**


Too cute to handle...am I right?


As always, there is more where that came from, so come back soon, leave some love & enjoy this beautiful day that the Lord has made! :)

XOXO,
Laura Loo

Sneak-a-roos of Senior Laura!

Well, this girlie automatically rocks because of her name and her sweet sweet pup just adds to her awesomeness! Her doggie is actually the sister of my sweet Jimi! So, after a fun filled morning of pictures we let Jimi & Lexi run around like crazies....there are few things in the world funnier than watching two Yorkies run around the yard like maniacs.

meet Laura...

Now meet Lexi....isn't her hair blowing in the wind precious....I wanted a picture of these two girlies walking away but Lexi just kept turning around staring straight back at me...SO CUTE!

Laura, thanks for such a fun day! Tell Lexi "good girl" for me, she is a diva! Wish you the best in all you do! Get excited because your big day is just around the river bend! :)

stay tuned, more to come!

XOXO,

Laura Loo

I spent the late afternoon yesterday with this beautiful young woman. She is graduating from Texas Woman's University in May!

Meet Brandi!

I am writing this post with a very full tummy, happy spirit, and thankful heart! I SO love Thanksgiving, especially with my sweet family! We ate until we were more than satisfied, laughed too loud, cheered on the cowboys and ate some more! Such a great holiday huh!?

Now, to my real reason for blogging...

About two months ago a childhood friend asked if I would take her senior pictures! I jumped with joy and said OF COURSE! I'll take any opportunity to meet up with good buddies and any excuse to get behind my camera, any day!

So, two weeks ago I spent a beautiful Saturday afternoon with Brandi. She is graduating from Texas Woman's University! That's right, like myself she is a proud T-Dubber! Graduating is now easy task and a huge moment in one's life, so I am very honored that Brandi allowed me to capture this milestone in her life. Brandi, we are so proud of you! We wish you only the best, honey, YOU HAVE MADE IT! CONGRATS....our hats are off to you, dear friend!

Now let's get to those sweet pics of her...let me just say, those fall leaves sure did love Brandi! :)


check out some of my personal favs from the shoot...


Can I have this outfit please, SO CUTE!



Check out her gorgeous baby blues!



The fall colors really compliment her baby blues, wouldn't ya say?






Her hair was on point during the shoot. If it flew into her face, it did it in that really flirty, sexy girly way. FUN!



Brandi, YOU ROCKED!

XOXO,
Laura Loo
