Must have photography related products

My top list of must-have products!

I get asked all the time about my camera equipment, backdrops, dresses, and other props/items that I use for photography so I thought I would take some time to create a list of my absolute favorite products that I use (sometimes on a daily basis) for my photography business.  *Disclaimer:  As an Amazon associate, I earn from qualifying purchases



Camera & Studio Equipment

  • Canon EOS R6 Full-Frame Mirrorless Camera- I LOVE this camera. It's incredibly sharp and has a super quiet shutter. I rarely have an image that is out of focus! Highly recommend this camera.
  • Canon Mount Adapter EF- If you don't want to buy all new lenses for the Canon Mirrorless then you will need this adapter!

My go to Lenses for Studio:

  • Canon EF 50mm f/1.2 L USM Lens
  • Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens
  • Sigma 35mm F1.4 Art DG HSM Lens


My go to Lenses for Outdoor:


  • Canon EF 200mm f/2L - my all time favorite for outdoor.  This one is discontinued at the moment but here is a used option on Amazon
  • Canon EF 135mm f/2 L- 2nd favorite (just behind the 200).  This one is a used option on Amazon as well
  • Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens
  • Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II
  • Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye

Mommy and Me photography sessions are a beautiful way to capture the special bond between a mother and her children. These sessions are designed to create timeless, elegant portraits that showcase love, connection, and warmth. Featuring dreamy backdrops, luxurious gowns, and delicate floral elements, these sessions highlight the beauty of motherhood in an artistic and sophisticated way. Mommy and Me photography captures fleeting moments of childhood and motherhood in a way that can be treasured for generations. I am offering Mommy and Me minis (in my Magnolia studio) for those that want to keep it simple with one look and Mommy and Me full sessions for those who want the entire motherhood experience, which will include gowns and the opportunity to photograph all four setups offering a variety of looks for mom to enjoy.

Christmas...already? It's only Spring, why would I even be thinking of Christmas pictures at this time of year? Well, since I am an Ambassador for a backdrop company and they are getting ready to launch their new holiday line in a few months, we have to start photographing these gorgeous sets early! So...this is an excellent way for you to get some beautiful Christmas pictures done early and at a super discounted price. These will be done at my Montgomery, Tx studio (in the Magnolia area) meeting during the week (Monday-Friday) at a time that is convenient for you and your family. I am needing 2-3 families to photograph for a couple "family" setups and then I will need a few child models (between the ages of 4-9) for some different holiday setups that I will be photographing over the next couple months. Child models must be cooperative and take instruction well so if your little one is camera shy I don't recommend applying to be a model until they are a little older. **Modeling sessions are $175+tax and will be due on session day.** What's included: 20-30 min studio session 2 different Christmas backdrops/sets 3 digital images (w/ option to purchase more) Child gowns to use during the session (depending on size needed) Dates will be discussed upon selection so if you are chosen, I will reach out to you and we will discuss when we can meet for the session. Family model sessions will be done within the next couple weeks. If you are interested in modeling for me please fill out the contact form below, answer all questions and submit a picture of who will be photographed to be considered for this modeling session. Thank you!

It's been awhile since I have offered Carnival sessions so it's about time we do these again! The carnival will be coming to the Conroe area in April and I'm so excited to create some gorgeous carnival magic! Carnival sessions create a vibrant and whimsical experience filled with colorful backdrops, glowing lights, and nostalgic charm. The mix of bright colors, twinkling lights, and joyful expressions creates a storybook-like feel, making every photo look straight out of a dream. You won't want to miss this unique and one of a kind experience!

Springtime in Texas brings a breathtaking sight—rolling fields of vibrant bluebonnets blanketing the landscape. These stunning wildflowers create the perfect backdrop for photography sessions, making them a highly sought-after setting for capturing unforgettable memories. Whether you're looking for timeless family portraits, children's milestone sessions, or senior portraits, bluebonnet fields offer a dreamy, picturesque environment that beautifully enhances any photo. The contrast of rich blue hues against golden sunlight creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, making for naturally stunning photographs. Children love exploring the flowers, making for fun and genuine expressions that turn into cherished memories.
