This shot is from a post on my Facebook page.

I just spent two hours at Legacy Prep School in The Woodlands with KS Tennis since it was the last day of the season. Kids are adorable but have ZERO filter, so these are the questions I was asked;
Kids: Are you rich?
Me: No.
Kids: Are you sure? You look rich.
Me: Pretty sure. I am wearing Chanel lipstick in “Arthur”…so I guess I look rich.
Kids: Do you have kids?
Me: No.
Kids: Why not?
Me: Because Coach Ken is too old.
Kids: But he’s really good with small kids!
Me: Well then if someone leaves one on our doorstep, I guess we’ll keep it .
……..so then these kids start explaining how to foster babies and sometimes you get to keep them! I’m good…I promise!

We were excited to be invited to a VIP party at the new Del Frisco’s Grill in The Woodlands last week!  The views are amazing,  the food is top notch and we had a really, really good time. The restaurant design is fantastic and it’s a very romantic, yet industrial look and feel. I will be doing a blog posting on the new Hughes Landing area of The Woodlands very soon with more photos.

SENIOR GLAM TEXAS STYLE

A little over a week ago, I was able to catch up with my beautiful (and sweet and smart) cousin Samantha to do a fun glam senior photo shoot so I’m sharing some of the shots here!

She is more of a “sporty spice” type of girl so it was fun to do her hair and makeup for this session.  (Of course, she abruptly wiped off the red lip color the minute we were done!)  However, for that hour, she let me play and take as many photos as I wanted, and I had a blast!

Fun senior photos that are based on a theme are a really big deal with most people having to scout for various picturesque locations.  In our case, we didn’t have to go any further than her family farm.  I thought it would be the perfect place for her Senior shots, using one of the old barns on her grandfather’s farm as a backdrop.

One of the things I notice every time I do make up for people who will be taking photos, is that they are always surprised how much work it takes even to get a “natural”  look.   Photos usually wash away any natural definition your face may have, so you have to add a bit of color and contour back in.  Of course, it usually doesn’t all show up, it just protects you from getting washed away!

Photography is something I enjoy working on because it’s an opportunity to be creative.  You can check out some more photos and make up I’ve done on the PHOTOGRAPHY by LUXOR  page of this blog!

I try not to use any photo shop effects.  The last thing you want is to show someone your photo and have them say, “Is that you?”  I believe in being the best you possible, but I’ve seen so much photo shop that people don’t resemble themselves at all.  To me, that’s just cartoonery. (A word from my personal dictionary.)

I hope you enjoy the pictures and feel free to leave comments!
