Beautiful Day for Family Photos!!

Hello! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season!  We did!  Now it’s on to making 2013 amazing!!

Long Time Friends!

So it all started one morning my hubby asks me if I want to do a 5k Mud Run.  I look at him like he’s NUTS!!  First off, I’m a little out of shape.  Second of all, MUD…really??!!  I told him I’d have to pass.  My son, however, rose to the challenge!  I wasn’t going […]

Getting Into The Halloween Spirit!!

One of the great things about living in a new “old” place is the cool things that I’ve experienced that I can now share with my kiddos.  One of these places is the Ft Worth Stockyards.  I’ve been there tons of times.  It’s cool to think about the fact that during the late 1800’s millions […]

Getting Settled in Texas

So, I’ve been on a bit of a quest lately to find out my style of photography.  What I’m realizing is I LOVE to capture “real” moments, hence the name Captured Moments by Mel.  It’s been right in front of me the whole time.  So as I was doing what another photographer, Brooke Snow, suggested, […]

A Day at the Beach!!

Just wanted to share these photos from a session I had last week.  I’ve known this little gal for quite a few years now.  In the beginning she was very quiet and stuck very close to mom.  Let me tell you during this session, that all has changed!!!  She was so full of life and […]

Late Afternoon Fun!

This year has been flying by so incredibly fast.  Halloween is almost upon us, and I realized we hadn’t done anything for the holiday other than buying costumes.  We decided to take a much needed excursion to Lombardi Ranch and visit the Pumpkin Patch.  It was a  perfect way to spend a Fall Sunday morning! […]
