2017-04-09T12:07:00.001-07:00

The setting was gorgeous, the kids were adorable and the bunnies were fluffy...what more could we ask for?? I love our little Easter/Spring Mini Sessions...just enough time to capture the kids smiles and their excitement with the rabbits.

Here are just a few from the all day fun!

Spring has Sprung!

2016 Year in Review!

2017-01-18T08:09:00.000-08:00

Again...another year has come and gone and I was so blessed to have a wonderful clientele that continues to make my "job" fun, exciting, easy and creative! I love being challenged in creativity, love meeting new families, and especially love seeing all my little bitty babies grow up!

Thank yall!

Enjoy one picture from every session this year!

(there could be one or two of my kids...now that they are older they let me takes pictures more often)

2015 Year in Review...(New Braunfels Photographer)

2015-12-31T09:40:00.001-08:00

I can't believe that this year has come and gone so quickly. I remember as a kid it was always so slow and school just kept going on and on but as an adult it just passes by so incredibly fast! As a parent of two very active girls, I just keep telling myself to stop and enjoy every little thing we do as a family and all the little and big accomplishments the girls do because in only 8 short years our oldest will be headed to college...so crazy to think about!

But back to 2015...it was an incredible year for Caressa Captures and for our family. I had a record amount of sessions, got to meet many new families and saw my "regulars" and how big the kids have grown and welcomed many new babies into this world. I started offering Fresh 48 hospital pictures (which are one of my favorite sessions) and now these are a big request! As for our family, we had an awesome family summer trip where we explored a new area of the US (The Grand Circle), the girls are continuing to move up levels in gymnastics and we found a new home church.

Life just can't get much better it seems!

Enjoy the 2015 video below...it is one picture from every session
Caressa Captures had this year!

Happy New Year and Have a Blessed 2016!

Miss Audrey's Newborn Session {New Braunfels Photographer}

2015-09-15T19:18:00.003-07:00

Miss Audrey was right at 10 days new when we did her newborn pictures in her family's beautiful new home. She had to stay in the NICU for a few days but is all better now! She was a perfect model and even gave us a few little smiles. Her momma did a great job in decorating her fabulous room. It is just perfect for a little girl!

Thank yall for inviting me into your home and getting to meet sweet Audrey!

2015-09-15T07:47:00.001-07:00

Back to School has come and gone and we are all now in a routine...kinda! These were some of the cuties that I got to capture for their back to school pics. Everyone came ready in their new clothes and big smiles for pictures. Love this time of year! Now if we can get cooler weather it will be perfect.

Back to School Pictures! {New Braunfels Photographer}

2015-07-31T07:45:00.001-07:00

When summer ends it makes me sad...no more sleeping in, swimming the days away or snow cones whenever we want but all fun must come to an end. One of my favorite things about going back to school are PICTURES!! Join me for a fun quick little photo shoot that captures your kiddos as they begin their next step in life.

One Year Pictures! {New Braunfels Photographer}

2015-06-01T08:40:00.001-07:00

Love it when the Mom shows up with a fully styled theme for her daughters One Year session!

Quinn's mom rocked it! First a simple but hip cute outfit, then a few pics in the buff because what 1yr old isn't cute naked and then the ombre pinks with gold accents for the cake smash. She thought of everything!

Happy 1st birthday sweet girl!

Maternity/Fresh 48/Newborn {San Antonio Newborn Photographer}

2015-04-27T18:42:00.000-07:00

I met the Franklin family a few years ago when their oldest, Julia, was a newborn. Since then, I have watched Julia grow (and sometimes she wasn't too much into our photo sessions) and now into a big wonderful sister. They asked me to capture their journey from maternity, to the morning when Sophia was born and Julia got to meet her for the first time and then a week later for Sophia's newborn pictures. This family is so awesome...they laugh hard but love even harder!

Here is a little video that shows just a few images from each session.

Mini Maternity & Newborn {San Antonio Photographer}

2015-04-13T12:45:00.002-07:00

I met this family a few years ago when their oldest was just a year old. Now, she a big sister who absolutely LOVES her little brother!

They invited me back to their beautiful family property where we took their mini-maternity session. It was a beautiful evening of warmth, sun, trees and a perfectly round belly.

Then a month later, I went back to their magazine styled home to meet Mr. Will. He wasn't to sleepy that morning but sure did love cuddles from his family. His big sister couldnt stop kissing him!

This gorgeous family booked me for their Mini Maternity/Newborn package.

I love getting to see families grow year after year!

Maternity Sessions... {New Braunfels Family Photographer}

2015-01-23T14:27:00.000-08:00

I remember being pregnant and not wanting my picture taken but now I wish I had more big belly pictures to show my kids! Mini Maternity sessions are turning into one of my favorite types of photography. Mothers are glowing and excited about this next step in life and Dads think their wives are gorgeous and want them to show off the belly. I have so many maternity sessions lined up this Spring already. So excited for these family's to grow!

These are our immediate neighbors and they are expecting their first child, a boy, in just a few weeks. Our street is majority girls so he will have lots of ladies watching over him and telling him what todo. ha. It will be so much fun to watch him grow!

This next couple is from my hometown and expecting a boy! We met up in Gruene one gorgeous morning and captured their happiness during this 9 months process. I loved that she wanted to show off her beautiful belly.

2014....What a Year! {New Braunfels Photographer}

2014-12-31T11:59:00.000-08:00

I can't express enough how lucky I am to have this so called "job"! I get to meet new people, hold precious babies, play with kids, hear seniors future plans WHILE getting to capture memories that will be seen for years to come. God gave us each special talents and I truly feel that mine is to help preserve precious moments so future generations will not just see their family members sitting and smiling BUT feel their personalities through pictures!

Here is just a quick glance at one picture from each session from 2014. Excited to see what the Lord has in store for me, my family and my business this coming year!

Happy New Year from the Vajdos Family!

Fresh 48 {hospital newborn photography}

2014-09-25T11:53:00.003-07:00

ABSOLUTELY love these sweet intimate sessions! It captures the first surrounds of the new family, the love and excitement in the parents eyes, and the delight of others when they visit. The "Fresh 48" is done within the first 48 hours of birth in the hospital. This session captures all the details: the names on the door, the hospital bracelets, the loving exchange of looks between the parents of their perfect baby and possibly the first meeting of siblings. These are moments that are quickly forgot once you leave.

Remember...a Mini-Video Birth Announcement is included!

Summer 2014...{New Braunfels Family/Child Photographer}

2014-09-17T10:18:00.002-07:00

What a summer!! Can't believe it has come and gone and we are already in the fourth week of school. This summer sped by and I met a lot of beautiful babies, said "Congrats" to many expecting momma's, asked boys & girls if they were "Ready to Go Back to School?", and got to play and run around with tons of kids! These folks braved the heat and got pictures done early! I am so blessed to have met all of these families and become close with so many!

Now, the busy Fall season is upon us and hopefully cooler weather is in the forecast! Can't wait to meet new families and see how big previous client kiddos have grown!
Hope to see you! Spaces are very limited so email right away!

1st Birthday Photo Shoot {New Braunfels Photographer}

2014-03-04T14:43:00.003-08:00

I can remember my oldest daughters 1st birthday like it was yesterday! All of our family was there, she was wearing a pretty pink little dress, she didn't want much to do with the presents and then we brought out a big cake of cool whip! She started crying of course when we put her in the middle of the table while every one's eyes were on her just waiting to see what she was going to do. Well...she tried it one or twice and that was it. But, I have all the different expressions and emotions documented and now made into a book. I just love being able to share these memories with the girls now that they can thumb through the book and ask questions about that special time in their lives!

Maybe that is why I enjoy capturing other little ones who are getting ready to celebrate their very 1st birthday...especially with Cake Smashes! They have so many great looks...happy, curious, surprised, mad,or just dazed by all the sugar!

Hello 2014! {New Braunfels Children and Family Photographer}

2014-01-12T18:31:00.001-08:00

Wow...2013 sure came and went fast! It was a wonderful year for our family and for my business! I am just so thankful everyday that I get to help support our family by doing something I absolutely LOVE to-do. Now...don't get me wrong...during the crazy fall season I may seem a little stressed out BUT that doesn't mean I don't love it by the end of the day (or year)... because I still do! I met almost 200 families this past year...some new faces and some awesome repeat clients! I am very excited to see what 2014 has in store for me, my family and Caressa Captures.

Here is a little sneak peek of some of my Fall Mini-Session Families. I couldn't share all of them on Facebook so they would be a Christmas card surprise!

Thank yall for trusting in me to capture your family's personality in 2013!

ANA-Senior 2013 {New Braunfels Senior Photographer}

2013-03-12T08:34:00.002-07:00

Ana was my first senior this year and helped me to remember why I LOVE shooting senior sessions! She is gorgeous, funny, serious, full of laughter and ready to pose!! Spring is one of my favorite times of year for so many wonderful reasons but especially when I get to spend it having tons of fun with these graduating seniors!

Miss Bailey...{San Antonio Newborn Photographer}

2013-03-05T16:15:00.000-08:00

Miss Bailey was such a perfect squishy 9+lb baby! She was awesome and her big brother is so protective of her...she is one lucky girl. He kept checking on her and asking "is my baby Bailey ok?" Newborn photography is so much fun when you have a beautiful baby and family!

When Bailey was eating big brother Kaden and I got to go upstairs and play! This guy is full force ahead and all boy!

He loves her so!

Happy Valentine's Day! {New Braunfels Child Photography}

2013-02-13T14:12:00.000-08:00

All of my sweet little subjects were so perfect! They were full of love and cheerfulness for their Valentine photos!I hope your day is full of LOVE!

Mr. Michael... {New Braunfels Newborn Photography}

2013-02-07T19:58:00.001-08:00

Micheal was a little older then I usually shoot but he did perfect! It is amazing what a little space heater can do...deep sleep. He had so many great expressions and fell into many of his own poses!

Michael's parents are just in love with him! You can see and feel the joy and excitement in them (and the exhaustion right now in life...ha). This little guy calmed right down when he got into his parents arms...love that those little ones know who protects and loves them right away!

Cant wait to watch Michael grow!
