When I saw this sweet illustration of my friend’s family I HAD to have one of my own silly crew. And now one of you will too! Check it out…


Kelly Christine from Local Honey is a wonderfully talented illustrator and photographer here in Dallas. She captured us to a T with all the personal touches like Rick’s Ranger’s cap, Clare’s mermaid and Quinn’s princess dress. I mean really, can you take the sweetness of these littles? Along with creating unique personal illustrations, Kelly Christine has a true knack for capturing the most precious moments in photographs.
My approach to photographing kids and families is to capture them in a very natural way. I love to photograph in people’s homes and try to get real personalities to come out in the shots.

On March 31st Kelly Christine will be doing a Spring Small Shoot in Dallas. Guess who will also be there for a session, yours truly! These short and sweet 20-minute sessions are a perfect way to get new family photos. They even have live baby chicks to pose with. How cute is that? If you are interested and want more information just click this Spring Small Shoot Download. I’ll bring the mimosas!

Want Kelly Christine to turn your family snapshots into a one of a kind illustration? Today she is giving away a Custom Family Illustration with up to 5 family members (pets included).
