Continuing from yesterday’s conversation… 🤍

First, I just have to say THANK YOU for all the love I received on yesterday’s post. The messages, encouragement, and just the amount of respect you guys showed for the boundaries I’ve chosen for my business meant more than you know. Truly, making this change four years ago has been one of the biggest blessings for me and my family.

And I know weekday sessions can be tricky!

But protecting our weekends for family time, church, and just being together is something that has become really important to me.

If I’ve learned anything over the last four years, it’s that the families who really want to work with me usually find a way to make it happen — and I’m SO grateful for that.

For my families with school-aged kiddos, a lot of my moms make it a fun afternoon! They’ll check the kids out a little early, grab a snack, get everyone ready and head to photos. I’ve also had parents take a half day from work and turn it into a little family afternoon.

And if mornings work for your family, whether your kiddos are in school or not, I LOVE a good morning session! I currently offer Tuesday + Thursday mornings, and honestly, kids are usually in the BEST moods. They’ve slept all night, had breakfast, and we’re catching them before the tiredness of the day sets in. There is just something about a fresh, happy morning kiddo that I love. 😂🤍

I’m also doing my very best to avoid booking on school holidays. Those days are precious family time too, and I really want to protect them whenever I can.

I completely understand that weekday sessions aren’t accessible for every family, and I never want to pretend that they are. But I’ve been so thankful to see how many of you have been willing to make it work year after year.

This business truly is one of the biggest blessings in my life. It allows me to do something I LOVE, serve families I absolutely adore, and still protect the time that matters most to me.

The fact that you guys continue to support me, respect those boundaries, and allow me to build my business around my family instead of my family around my business is something I will never take for granted. 🤍

A little calendar update because fall is coming in HOT 🤎

October is extremely booked, with only a couple spots left in September, a few in November, and quite a bit more availability still in December.

I’m currently talking with about 10 different families trying to find dates on my calendar, so if family photos have been on your mind, this is your sign to reach out ASAP. Fall always fills faster than I think it will!

And just a little reminder as we head into my busiest season… I photograph sessions Monday through Friday and locally to the Humble/Kingwood/Atascocita area.

I made the decision to step away from weekend sessions about four years ago, and while it felt like such a big change at the time, it was also one of the easiest decisions I’ve made for my business.

Because before anything else, I’m a mom. 🤍

One of the greatest gifts this business has given me is the ability to build my work around my family instead of building my family’s life around my work. Protecting our weekends and that special time together is incredibly important to me, especially during the busy fall season.

I’m so grateful that you guys have continued to support me, work around my weekday availability, trust me with your families, and keep this little business of mine so dang busy year after year. I truly never take it for granted.

So… consider this your friendly reminder: if you’re hoping to get on my 2026 calendar, don’t wait! 🤎📸

Hi, friends! 🤍

With so many new faces around here lately, I figured it was time to introduce myself again.

I’m Deven. 🤍 Wife to my best friend 👮🏼‍♂️, mama to my two sweet girls, Piper & Poppy, and a family photographer in the Houston area who truly loves what I get to do.

This October I’ll be celebrating 10 years in business, and honestly, it still feels surreal. What started as a dream has turned into something I never could have imagined, and I’ll never stop being grateful that I get to serve so many amazing families.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me with my girls, out for a run, working on a home project, decorating a space, or searching for the best budget-friendly finds. Around here you’ll get a little bit of everything. Photography, family life, home projects, workouts/running, and all the little moments in between.

One thing that’s always been important to me is making family photos feel easy. I know getting everyone dressed, out the door, and smiling can feel overwhelming. My goal is for your session to feel relaxed, fun, and full of genuine moments you’ll actually want to remember.

As I get closer to celebrating 10 years in business, I can’t help but look back with so much gratitude. This journey has been more than I ever dreamed it could be, and it’s only possible because of all of you. Whether you’ve trusted me to photograph your family, shared my work with a friend, cheered me on from afar, or simply followed along over the years. I don’t take a single bit of it for granted. Your support has allowed me to do what I love while raising my girls, and that is something I’ll always be thankful for.

Whether you’ve been here since the beginning or you’re brand new, I’m so grateful you’re here. 🫶

There are some sessions that are extra special.

Not just because they’re beautiful (and trust me... this family is 😍), but because they’re dear friends. Getting to watch friends grow their family and then preserving these first little moments will never stop feeling like such an honor.

These images were just begging to be shared in black & white. Timeless and Full of love. 🖤

A little reminder while you’re here... my Fall calendar opens July 1st! 🍂

If you’ve been thinking about booking, don’t wait too long. Fall is my busiest season, and I typically book the rest of my year by the end of August.

I’ll also be releasing my Fall Minis, Christmas Minis, and Santa Minis throughout July because... Christmas in July is absolutely a thing around here. 🎄✨

I can’t wait for another season of documenting your families.

Don’t wait to book your summer photos. ☀️

I know it’s hot in Texas, but that doesn’t mean you have to put off updating your family photos! We have some fun indoor studio options that keep everyone comfortable while still creating beautiful, natural images.

This sweet mama and her boys are proof. We laughed, played, and had an absolute blast during their session.

If you’ve been thinking about booking, now is the perfect time. Use code SUMMER at checkout for a little savings on your session.

Link is in my stories to reserve your date before my calendar fills up! 🤍 Book now, pick your date later! (These can be used for Fall sessions too)

Little me prayed for this life, and somehow the Lord gave me more than I could’ve ever imagined.

Getting to be their mama is the sweetest gift and one I never want to take for granted. These girls are my whole world, and I thank God every single day for the privilege of loving and raising them.

Forever grateful for this beautiful calling. Happy Mother’s Day. 🤍
