H family | Rio Grande Valley family photographer | Melissa Rodriguez Photography

January 24, 2010 – 10:58 am

I’m so happy we finally got together so Mrs. H could make use of her Mother’s Day gift of a family photo session! I had such a great time photographing you all! The beautiful, sunny day was the perfect backdrop for this gorgeous family.

This first image just makes me so happy! It really portrays what a great relationship these grandparents have with their grandchildren. You can almost feel the warmth of the field at sunset.

Thank you so much for trusting me to capture these moments with your sweet family! Enjoy your peek!


Their “other” babies! :)

They braved one of the chilliest days of the year for this session and I’m so happy they did because we got some awesome photos…even if our noses were frozen by the time we were finished! ;) Thank you L and N for being such troopers. You guys were so much fun to hang around with!! You have such a fun, loving mother/son relationship that was a joy to photograph. Thank you for trusting me to capture your family!  N got a new puppy that came along too. Isn’t he a cutie?!! Hope you enjoy this peek!

Family | Rio Grande Valley family photographer | Melissa Rodriguez Photography

I’m still trying to catch up on blogging sessions that happened before the holidays. Forgive me! I wanted to share these because I think mom and son both look so awesome and so happy. Thank you so much for trusting me to capture the love that you share for one another and the special bond you have. I have to admit I was a little nervous about photographing a teenager, as I’m used to chasing kids, but T is a natural in front of the camera and made my job easy. He must get his good looks from his gorgeous mother! :)

Photographing such a beautiful mommy was an awesome way to start off my first session of the new year! You are just stunning in these photos H! I LOVE the way your eyes sparkle in that close up! Thank you both for allowing me to capture your pregnancy and your growing family. I can’t wait to meet the little one. Here are a few to hold you over until I have your gallery ready!

4 days new | Rio Grande Valley newborn photographer

January 8, 2010 – 1:06 am

Isn’t Baby E just beautiful??!! At only 4 days new, she was one of the most alert babies I’ve ever photographed! She really fought going to sleep, but I’m so happy she finally did…if even for a few minutes! I can already tell that she has a mind of her own and likes to do things HER way, but I think mom and dad already knew that! ;) Thank you so much for trusting me to capture her. I hope these images serve as keepsakes to remember how tiny and gorgeous she was after she was born! Enjoy your peek!

I wanted to post a couple more of this handsome little man. His teaser post is here, in case you missed it. I love his smile in this first one; he was such a happy baby for us! There is something about his expression in the second photo that I just love! Those little cheeks are too cute. I had such a great time photographing him and his mommy. Thank you all so much for trusting me to capture this special time. Enjoy your peek!
