Merry Christmas!

I hope everyone had a great Christmas and enjoyed time with family and friends!

I am so thankful for some "time off" this past week and the next 10 days. What a great way to end the year! I will be traveling with family and M.I.A. until sometime in 2009 :) Not really, just for about 2 weeks.

But there are lots of new updates coming when I get back, and several fun bridal shoots. As well as an updated blog!! By the way, sorry for the mess and the random words in Spanish you might see. It will be fixed soon, I hope.

Until then........peace out and have a Happy New Year!

the sampsons

Well, this one takes the cake. I definitely laughed more taking these pictures than any other time. This cute family is my sister, brother-in-law, and little nephew. And they are awesome. Besides my husband, no one in the world can make me laugh at really dumb things like Cyndea. And I mean REALLY dumb.





I love how tiny Gage looks...what a cute little guy!



The tongue cracks me up...


one of my favorites...



Dea and Shane are some of the greatest people I know and such servants for the Lord. I am so blessed to have them as family.

south texas

One of my favorite things about being out in the country is this......


...and random old structures like this...


...and nights like this...


...and nephews dressed in camo like this...


Isn't God's amazing creation just breathtaking?


And I love being able to capture it on camera. Almost as great as the real thing......almost.

katie & jake

This is my oldest friend, Katie, and her fiance, Jake. And when I say "oldest friend", I literally mean the first friend I have any memory of. Our parents were even friends in college, so we were destined to be friends. Even after 2 1/2 years of marriage, I still haven't spent as much time with my husband as I did growing up with Katie (or "Katlin" as only a few of us call her).

I can't even go into how special she is to me. I don't think I have enough room on here, and words would never do our friendship justice. Jake....you better take good care of her....or I'll come after you!

this one just cracks me up for some reason...maybe it's Jake's expression...

Katie looks gorgeous here!!

PG-13.....haha

one of my favorites

random, but very cool

I'm so happy for you guys and all that is just beginning in a few weeks! And I can't wait for the festivities to begin!! Oh yeah, and you know who's going to be visiting y'all in Scotland. Better not stay there too long....we will miss you guys!

gift ideas!

Gift certificates are ready and waiting! What a perfect gift for a friend or family member. It's even a great idea to add to your own Christmas list!


They can be purchased in any dollar amount or given as whole session or package. Endless possiblities! Just shoot me an email with your requests: info@peacock-photography.com.

Thank you Jennifer for getting me going on this!

Andy & L'erin

I know Andy from TBarM, a camp where I used to work back in the day. I also went on a mission trip with both of them to Iquitos, Peru....where I got to know L'erin. As you can see in the pictures, they're not only a good-looking couple, but they have contagious smiles and are the kind of people you really want to hang out with. And though my time with them was short that afternoon, I still had a blast. And I'm glad they could laugh with me when I made dumb comments or told them to do things that didn't really make sense. Good friends.








I just wish I could see you guys more often!

Barbie and Ken

I mean, Sarah and Ben. Just kidding....Barbie is a blonde! But it was Sarah's nickname in high school (at least to some friends).

These are some good friends of mine that are super photogenic. Sarah is one of those people you want to hate because she's so cute and stylish ALL THE TIME, but you can't help but love because she's just a really cool girl with a great heart. And I LOVE her new hair color!!

Ben's not too bad either :)

AND Kingston is the brother to one of my great danes....so this little family is extra special to us!


I mean seriously, look at the size of this dog....gotta love Great Danes!


Kingston actually kinda looks like a normal-sized dog here.

What a cute family! Can't wait to see what their kids look like some day!

maverick

This is Maverick, one of my favorite dogs ever. He is an 8 month-old German Shepherd with some pretty cool owners. I only say that because I have to (they may be our next door neighbors someday).....just kidding. They WILL be our next door neighbors....I'm sure of it!


He might just be the best-looking dog I've ever seen...

And the most photogenic.


Thanks, Efren, for being a good sport for Cyndi.....and for me. And you're welcome for not posting your "GQ" pictures :)
