The Calm before the Storm

As Hurricane Gustav approaches the coast, we have decided to take precaution. The storm Rita in 2005 made a big dent in our lives here, so why not make the safe choice and evacuate? We are going to head to Dallas, for a few days. And hope that nothing happens to our home, or our families homes. I will try to get back with everyone as soon as I can and return calls and emails soon. Be safe!

Tanna and Richard {e. session}

This {e. session} certainly had it's obstacles. We originally scheduled for last Monday, but rain, or let me say the flooding kept us in. So we decided on Friday morning, and ended up with Sunday being the best! Just about all Sunday I had a horrible headache, and not really looking forward to the shoot because I was not feeling good. But I sucked it up and took some Tylenol and went on. Then, when I got to original location, the field was mowed the evening before, so it was just short ugly grass, not the picture perfect field it had been all week long. I was thinking "Come ON!" So once the couple go there we opted for another grassy location that worked perfectly, and then traveled a bit around town.
There were so many people honking and yelling at us while doing the shoot, I think it's because this couple is so cute and their love is very obvious! You can defiantly tell they are in love. I love doing engagements, the couple are so much fun, and are always willing to show their love and affection for each other!
I am so glad that my headache went away and things got better, but you know after all the things that happened to us before the shoot got started, it just made the images that much better and was well worth the wait if you ask me! Enjoy your sneak peek!

This image symbolizes the rain that rained us out the first time!


L.O.V.E. Can you see it? Being a little silly!


Can't you see his Love for her here? Oh I just LOVE it!


Looking oh so HOT. This is when we got the most stares and honks!


XOXO,

NEW WEBSITE!!!

YEA!!! My NEW Website is LIVE! Go Check it out! All the Galleries are not filled, I just haven't had time, I still have 3 sessions to edit! But I wanted to get it back up because I just hate not having a "Home." So you will probably see a few changes and adds from time to time in the next few weeks, but it's just to perfect it!

Meet Senior Rep. SHELBY

She is Just Gorgeous!! Shelby and I met today, well... yesterday now...(Tuesday) We had an awesome time taking pictures, even though we started at 7:30 am! hehe.. Rain was in the forecast and it rained out my engagement session on Monday, so we went for the morning and I am so glad that we did! We found some killer locations that I know I will be dragging someone to. Here is a sneak peek from today's session, I will post more soon, but I am running on about 4.5 hrs. of sleep... SO this will have to do.

**By the way... notice something on the pictures? It's my new watermark designed by Sugar Shots Photography. Thanks Reata!! It's also a sneak peek as to what is to come with my new website that is in the making. It should be up and running very very soon! Maybe even by the end of the week... Fingers Crossed!

Meet ROSSI Senior Rep

Thursday I met up with one of my Senior Reps. ROSSI. Isn't she just beautiful? This girl has so many looks, and she rocked everyone one of them! You will be seeing a bunch more of her, I am going to order her Sr. rep cards soon, and she just might hand one out to you! If you receive any Senior Rep card from a Sarah e. Evans Photography Rep, bring it your session for a $10 print credit! (only one per session please)

Construction Going on...

There is going to be a little Construction going on around here... Please don't mind my mess. I am going to be getting a new website, so it will be down for awhile, so PLEASE PLEASE bookmark my BLOG so you can keep up to date with the progress.

Tell everyone that while my website may be down, I am still up and running. If you need a price list of the sessions contact me at evans61706@yahoo.com and I will send you one!

Out in the Country...

These are from my Monday Session. We had such a great time, I love taking shots next to old vintage things, as you can probably tell lol. Thank y'all for being such great models! I hope you enjoy the sneak peek, These are the only ones I have had time for!

* Also I guess i should say that I do some editing to my pictures as well, so much of what you see on my BLOG is not SOOC (straight out of the camera.) I apply textures, actions, and all sorts of things to them if I feel that compliments the picture.

Three Lovely Ladies

Sunday afternoon I met up with these three Lovely Ladies, and they were such naturals! I loved photographing them because they were up for anything and made silly faces at each other to get some smiles! The oldest is leaving for college in a few weeks so Mom wanted to get a few pics of the three of them before she leaves and to surprise Dad! I chose just a few to share. Enjoy your little Sneak Peek as to what is to come!!
Now back to editing....

Riley Turns ONE!

Saturday I had the pleasure of capturing Riley's First Birthday Party! It was so much fun! They had pools set up for all the little ones and they loved it, some of the older ones jumped from pool to pool, as you can see in th last pic. Thank you so much Lindy and Brain for allowing me to take part in Riley's Big Day! I picked just a few of my favorites to share. Believe me there are many more that are wonderful.

*I did a family shoot yesterday, and I have one today too, so I will try to get the other peeks up as soon as I can!

Hey Katie!

"Hey Katie I saw the capitol!" I met with one of my friends Katie, who lives there in Austin for lunch one day, and I had told her that I wanted to see the state capitol. She had said "Sarah, you have to go see it." So on our way home we detoured and went by the Texas State Capitol. It truely is beautiful. Although it was a scorcher out! It was like 102! We didn't stay long at all, just long enough to get a few pics and evidence that i went hehe..


I just love this for some reason.


The timing was all wrong while we were there for pics. but we didn't care we got them anyway!

Many do not know what the "Day After Bride and Groom Session" is or a Boudoir. A Day After session is a chance for the Bride and Groom to interact and not worry about keeping the dress white or wrinkle free for the wedding. Most often it a chance for the couple to have some creative images that are not possible to get the day of the wedding when everything is rushed or on a schedule. These sessions are meant to be romantic and fun for the Newlyweds! A Boudoir session is a beautiful, tasteful, sexy, session for the Bride-to-be or any woman needing a "self-confidence boost". They are images that you will want to look at for years to come. This session is done in the home or a private location of your choosing. It is the perfect gift for your Husband to be, the Man you married years ago, or just for you to treasure. For more information on Boudoir sessions please contact me.

I hope this Post really helped you out! Now don't Delay booking for your Wedding!

Miss "J" the Little FIRECRACKER

On the 4th of July I had the chance to have a session with Miss "J" who is about a week and a half. She was a firecracker! Between the three potty accidents, and pulling her "pappy" (aka pacifier, but we call it pappy at my house) in and out to get some shots without it, we had a great shoot! :) Her parents are wonderful and the Whole family is BEAUTIFUL! Thank you again for such a great afternoon F and J! Here is a Sneak Peek!













There is something about this one that makes me LOVE it!
