Hey, there! Welcome to my little corner of the internet. You’ve probably found your way to my website because of my newborn photography, but while you’re here, settle in & learn about my love for family photos too. Allow me to reintroduce myself– you know me as Mel B, the Cypress Spring newborn and family photographer. For the last 6 years, I’ve drawn my creative juices from my personal experiences as a wife and mother. After 11 years of marriage and 3 beautiful children, I am well versed in the craziness of early parenthood. I know from my day-to-day life as a mom what moments you want captured from each season you’re in. I know first-hand just how quickly a moment becomes a memory, and I understand the importance of photos to capture those fleeting seasons.
Photographing Cypress Families
If you’re a mom who has spent any amount of time on the internet, you’ve probably seen some of the guilt-laced memes about taking all the pictures all the time. Not too long ago, I shared one on my Instagram stories that read, “Take pictures of everything and everyone. I don’t care who I annoy by constantly taking pictures, in the end, they will be all we have left. Every photo is a memory- capture it.”
This may be shocking to you, but I pretty strongly disagree with this sentiment. I know, I know! Mel, you’re a photographer, how do you not value photos?! Let me explain.
Photos are important, but so is being present so that you actually have the memory you’re trying to capture. Raising a family means a laundry list of distractions, and having a phone or camera out constantly during quality time shouldn’t be one of them. Family sessions allow you to be fully present in the moment while still giving you something tangible to pass down to future generations.
Natural Light Family Photography in Texas
As a local, I understand that the weather here in Houston is just as unpredictable as a toddler without a nap. For that reason, I like to accommodate my Cypress families with both outdoor and studio photo sessions. Your time is precious just like the memories we aim to capture together. I promise to do my due diligence to make your family photos an enjoyable session. With me as your Cypress family photographer, you’ll get a good mix of candid, authentic images of your crew along with posed & polished. Whether we shoot outdoors, in your home or a local studio, I’ll come prepared with my camera & all of my best mom jokes to entertain the kiddos.
What Cypress Family Clients Are Saying
“Trying to find a photographer that can capture the personalities of 4 wild boys year after year is no easy feat. Mel does it without fail every single time. She always has great locations and is super helpful with outfit choices. But beyond that, she’s able to capture my kids and their personalities despite them never seeming to sit still for a single photo. I’ve never been disappointed in a gallery from her and am consistently blown away at how perfectly she shows our family in pictures.” Summer P
“Mel has been our photographer for many years, and I could not recommend her more. She is fantastic with children (even the shy or frightened ones), patient with our family, and always makes sure she gets the perfect shots. We are so lucky to get to work with her.” Ashley B.
“If you want to capture your family the way you see them, you have to go with Mel” Kelly L.
Capturing Cypress Families & Newborns
We all know about the brevity of the newborn stage and how your baby will basically morph into a different kid every 3 days or so. The truth is, that’s just the beginning– especially if/when you add more children to the mix. Family photos are equally as important! I aim to help make the process as seamless as possible for my fellow busy mamas. Be on the lookout for my upcoming blog posts where I’ll share all of my best tips for family photo wardrobes & more!
