Bricen | Ft. Hood Newborn Photographer

The so called "ideal" age for shooting newborns is within the first 14 days of the precious little lives.  After this time the can get baby acne, colic, less sleepy, ect.  I say photograph babies of any age!  Why?  Because the are precious at an age and have something different to offer at every age!  Meet Bricen!  He was almost at the big 6-weeks-old mark here.  Sleeping was not an option as he was alert and awake the entire session, but why would I want to miss those big blue eyes?  And old enough to give me sweet baby boy smiles?  I love it!  

Bricen did a great job and I really enjoyed meeting his sweet mom!  We want to welcome dad home (although alittle late) from a year in Iraq and hopes he's loving his time with the family.  We meet many families with loved ones deployed or about to deploy and I really think pictures mean just a little something extra to our military families!  Scroll to the bottom of the post for a link to FREE military pictures!

Do you or someone you know need family pictures done and they happen to be military?  We have a great program that gives one family a month free pictures!  Follow this link.

If you're reading this post in January and have been thinking about booking a session with us, think quickly to obtain the current rates!  We will be announcing out new pricing soon!  Thanks!

Roozen Family | Killeen Family Photographer

We truly do get to meet some of the nicest families through photography!  I can't believe I haven't blogged about their session yet (at least I hope I haven't).  These lovely pictures belong to the Roozen family.  We met in Salado at the old schoolhouse and used the historical cabins next door.  We had a characteristic crazy hot Texas heat to deal with but the kids did wonderfully and staying in the shade helped!  

The Roozens are also one of our Military Appreciation Families that received free pictures as a thank you for military service.  This program has been very popular this year and we are already filling up for next year.  Next year will hold a few changes for the program.  We will only be accepting one family a month but will take families for a waiting list in case we have spots open.  Sessions will now be 30 minute minis with 10 images on a CD with print release.  Additional images will be available and will include a military discount.  Email normanphotography@ymail.com if you're interested in this program.

Shannon & Matt | Killeen Maternity Photographer

Meet Shannon & Matt!  Shannon was due the day before Thanksgiving and baby Hadley is being a tad bit stubborn making her debut!  We took these back in September and I am just super behind on blogging!  Anyway, this baby is the first for these two and I am super, super excited she is going to be on the pink team!  We have a ton of boys running around and I really needed all my kids' clothes to go somewhere :).  And I can't wait to do her newborn pictures!  Headbands, cute blankets, so excited!

For this maternity session, we went to one of our farms in Topsey where my grandfather grew up.  The house is barely standing but it's still special to us.  We went there all the time as kids to do your typical farm activities.  We've all baled our fair share of hay let me assure you!  I told you I have a ton of family here right?  I've also included a sample of the baby shower invitation we made for Shannon to show what cute, simple things you can use pictures from your session for!  So, until I have pics of Hadley to show, here is Shannon & Matt's maternity session...

Easton | Killeen Newborn Photographer

I didn't get newborn pictures done of Avery or Mallory when they were born other than on my point and shoot camera and my iPhone. That was before Norman Photography began.  Before I even knew about newborn photography.  I wish I had sweet baby pictures of them like Megian will have of Easton.  You look and remember how wrinkly their little fingers and toes were, how peaceful they were when they slept, how soft their bald little heads were and just sigh.  Almost makes me want another one.  Almost.  Eh, I'll just cuddle a client's every once in a while!  

Easton's momma and I go way back to my days of working my way through college at Killeen Parks & Recreation.  I use to be the Day Camp Coordinator (my self-given title).  It was a big help in preparing me for teaching though and I made many new friends and learned about the on goings of how a city services it's citizens.  Megian was my boss for a time and there was never a dull moment.  She's one of a kind and anyone who knows her will vouch that that's what makes her special and why so many people love her.  And this little guy will be loved by many too!  He's a sweet, sweet baby boy and I can't wait to see him grow and give his momma all kinds of trouble!

Barclay Family | Ft. Hood Family Photographer

Meet the Barclays!  When I received a call from Lydia about family pictures I was a little surprised because we did family pictures for them in January.  Then, I soon learned she discovered she was pregnant with baby boy #2 right after they had them done.  So, here they are again!  Sarah did their session last time, but I was lucky enough to meet the sweet family this time.  Their blonde hair, blue eyed  handsome boy was so happy to show off his baby brother.  And why not?  He is such a sweet, darling little baby!    I'm so glad I was able to do photos for them, for William is home on R&R long enough to meet his new addition before heading back overseas.  Gotta love military life huh?  Lydia is a fabulous mom though, so I know she'll be just fine!  

For the Barclays session, we headed to Salado.  Salado is a popular place for pictures, but I tell clients all the time that with each family we get a totally different look each time.  I brought along my mom's old saddle for a little pop next to the red barn I knew I wanted to use and it turned out perfect!  We did half our session at the barn and then traveled up the road to a historical monument with some rustic cabins.  I love the cabins, I've even used them for my own kiddos.  The session turned out lovely and I know I've said it before, but we really to get to meet the nicest families through this business with the cutest kids!  Take a look through a little highlight of their session...
