Easter Blessings | Flower Mound, TX Photographer



Every year Flower Mound puts up 3 cross at the top of "The Mound" a week or 2 before Easter and has a sunrise service on Easter Sunday.  We have yet to make it to the service, maybe one day.  I started making the tradition of taking my girls up for Easter snaps, yes snaps b/c they usually are uncooperative and want to run around.  So now I just go with the flow and capture their fun.

Cherishing Moments | Flower Mound, TX Child Photographer



A child's babyhood is such a short time in their life that it feels like if you blink you'll miss it.  When E's mom contacted me she stressed she wanted to capture her baby girl before it was too late.  Miss. E. will be turning 2 in just a couple months.

These images are considered "lifestyle" portraits, which by definition according to Wikipedia is "a style of portrait/people photography which aims to capture and document real-life events, situations, or milestones in an artistic manner."

Fairy Garden Party | Flower Mound, TX Child Photographer




When I asked my daughter about having a "Garden" themed party this year she objected and requested a princess party.  We used the princess theme last year so we came up with a compromise of a "Fairy Garden" party instead.  Once this was determined I was off gathering ideas from my favorite sites.  One of my favorite sites is Birthday Party Ideas.  This was always my go to site before Pinterest.  Here is my Pinterest board for a Fairy Garden Party.

I designed the invitation using graphics from My Grafico.


Flower Cupcakes

Flower Garden Cake, Fairy was added at the party.  This was a bit of a messy job as I quickly ran out of time.

 Dirt Cupcakes, made with chocolate cupcake, chocolate buttercream icing, Oreo Crumbs, and candy worm.  The cupcake wrapper is from The Posh Event.
 My Little Fairy, she choose a Unicorn Face Paint from Face Painting 4 Fun.


Big sister choose a purple & pink bow.
Pixie Juice AKA Lemonade

 Planting Seeds

Fairy Wands, we also had bugs on a log not pictured, and I planned on making these adorable Fairy Toad Stools but ran out of time.

More face painting from Face Painting 4 Fun.



The cake didn't travel well to the party and the top got a bit damaged.



Daddy had to help with the Pinata after several rounds of hitting from all the party goers didn't make a dent.

Making a Fairy Garden | Flower Mound Photographer



My youngest daughter had a Fairy Garden Party so of course we needed to make a Fairy Garden for the center piece.

It was a lot of fun gathering ideas and supplies.  Here is my Pinterest Board of my favorites.

Here is what you'll need:

1. Wide Planter, can be shallow or bucket.  I considered an oval metal tub.

2. Moss, I bought Aurea Scotch Moss and Irish Moss.

3. Other shade loving plants, I included an Impatient and Fern.

4. Soil.

5. Bird House or Fairy House.  We converted wooden bird houses and cut a door.

6. Paint and decorations for the fairy house.

7. Fairies, www.safariltd.com

8. Rocks and/or pebbles for pathways.

  

Primed with spay paint primer, this one will have a mushroom red/white polka dot roof.

Found these at Michael's Craft Store.

We used acrylic metallic paint.




We still need to cut the door on this castle.
