Courtney Roza | Frisco Texas Bridal Portraits

We've been posting about twins a lot lately. And so we thought it fitting to continue the trend with this beautiful bride who happens to be an identical twin. Meet Courtney Roza (now Boye). If she looks familiar, it's because we photographed her sister Kelsey last year. A few weeks before her wedding, I traveled to Texas for this shoot and I had a blast hanging out with Courtney and her family. Her brother even introduced me to the best little burger joint ever. This trip to Texas was made even more special by the fact that Courtney and her family shared stories and words of wisdom on raising to twins. As you probably know, this information has become ever more relevant to us in the past few days. We'll be posting photos of her wedding in the very near future. In the meantime, enjoy some of our favorite images from her bridal shoot.

A Premature Birthday Celebration

Say hello to the Thomas Twins. Pictured up top is Summer Joy Thomas and below, Weston Michael Thomas. We are so grateful for these two and for their (somewhat) smooth arrival into the world. The events leading up to their arrival however, have been less than smooth and at times, downright crazy. It's been a very stressful couple of weeks away from home but early Wednesday morning, the twins decided that it was time to enter the world and that was that.

Having spent a little over a week figuring how to do life in limbo and wondering if the kids were going to be born while I was away, I was anxious to...

June 2014 Update | What a week

To say that the last week has been crazy would be a drastic understatement. And yet, here we are with both babies still intact and growing in their womb. This past week, we managed to fit in a...

Kristen Thomas (aka Novo Girl) | Arkansas Maternity Photography

Say hello to Kristen Thomas. Many of you know her beautiful face from weddings over the years, where she would help photograph and also assist me. And if you’ve spent any time at all with her, you also know her sweet spirit, her contagious laugh and her absolute love for children. It’s probably good that she loves kids so much because she’s got two of them.

If you’ve been following our story at all, you know that last weekend, I rushed her to the hospital in the middle of the night because her water had broken prematurely. Right now, she’s on permanent bed rest until the twins get here. I’m so thankful we took a day last week to venture out into the great Arkansas outdoors and create some maternity photographs of her. She was a trooper the whole time and often ventured around against my wishes (typical).

Here are a few images from our treasured time together. Thank you again for all the love, the prayers and the support you have shown the two of us and our two kiddos. Pretty soon, they’ll be here!
