2016 Fall Mini Sessions in the Heights, Houston, TX

Posted on September 25, 2016 by photocacophony

Heights Minis copy copy.jpg

It’s the one time of the year when all of us like to update our family photos and what better way to do it than with an affordable and hassle free mini session!

What is a mini session? Usually, a limited, only a few times a year offer, where the photographer determines a fixed location, a predetermined day and time slots and the families come one after another. This has always made me a little nervous. What if a family is a few minutes late? Their already limited time will be cut even shorter or they will run into the next family’s session. What if rains? Multiple families will have to be rescheduled.

So my goal this year was to provide a stress free experience for both my clients and me. I have decided to make my Fall 2016 Mini Sessions tailored towards each of you. You and I agree on the day and time (Oct 1 through Nov 20). We will meet for 20 mins and I will provide you with 10 fully edited high resolution images in both color and black and white through a download link. And the only condition is that the location is in the Heights, Houston, TX, but you can take me anywhere you’d like in the Heights – in a park, by the bayou, at a gazebo or a graffiti wall or even just on 19th street to capture the old town feel. It’s up to you!

Booking is now open – I would love to hear from you at denitsa.zinsmeister@gmail.com.

And don’t forget to look at all of my packages that I offer year around if you are looking for a different location or longer sessions at http://www.PhotoCacophony.com/Info

Maggie is 1! {Eagle Springs, TX Kids Photographer}

Posted on February 1, 2015 by photocacophony

Miss Maggie is one of the happiest little girls I have met. To mark her 1st birthday we had an outdoor photoshoot in Eagle Springs, TX as well an inside cake smash session. She lasted through it all with a big smile.

And once we tired Maggie off she was ready for a big sweet treat to get her energy back:

Baby Noah { Houston TX Newborn Photographer}

Posted on December 9, 2014 by photocacophony

Meet baby Noah! His parents opted for a lifestyle newborn session combined with staged poses which is one of my favorites. It’s so difficult for parents who had their little one just days ago to bring themselves to be in the pictures, but it’s so very worth it years from now.

Noah was just an angel – he was calm and quiet for the shots in which he was awake and alert, and so sweet during the sleepy poses:

And let’s not forget the tiny details:

You are so loved little Noah!

Harper is 1! { Humble TX Kids Photographer}

Posted on December 8, 2014 by photocacophony

I was blown away when I saw the balloons that Harper’s mommy had picked for her session. Aren’t they adorable? They complement wonderfully the birthday girl’s outfit and the picture setup altogether. Here are some more favorite shots from this session held in Summerwood.

Harper’s smile was so infectious but she did give us a couple of serious faces too:

And the long awaited cake smash!

Later, I also had the privilege to capture Harper during her 1st Birthday party:

Miss P is 7! {Sugarland TX Kids Photographer}

Posted on October 17, 2013 by photocacophony

It was so nice to meet miss P and her dad! He had thought of the smallest detail for his daughter’s magical session: from the matching hairpiece and earring, to the dress.

We met at Oyster Creek Park in Sugarland, TX. The crowd was starting to pile up, all these anxious people trying to get their morning exercise in 🙂 Most of them were so nice and let us have a private moment at the bridge that is also the entrance of the park – love people in TX – everyone is so warm and friendly.

Miss P was a little nervous in the beginning – at her age I would have been a complete wreck in front of the camera – my chin would have been trembling non-stop and my face would have been frozen in a smile. She however got more and more relaxed as we moved to the waterfall area and I could really see the sparkle in her eye.

At the end of our short session we discovered a log in a shady area – when we took the pictures there I had no idea that those would turn out to be the most mysterious and magical ones of the session:

Embrace the moment and let it surprise you, Miss P. 🙂

London turns 2! {Humble TX Kids Photographer}

Posted on September 25, 2013 by photocacophony

What a sweetie pie! I was super excited when I met London in Old Humble TX for her 2 year old session! We captured some quick family photos at the beginning of our session and after that it was all about London!

London’s mommy had amazing ideas of how to make it a fun experience for her little girl!

First it was pearls and an adorable princess dress – London couldn’t keep the smile off her face:

Then she changed into a more playful outfit and while mommy went to grab the balloons, London and I squeezed in a couple of test poses that turned out to be adorable.

Can you guess what is London’s pet at home?

Someone really really loves her pup at home! London was such a trooper throughout the photo session and left with a big smile. 🙂

The Sutton Family {Spring TX Family Photographer}

Posted on September 15, 2013 by photocacophony

It’s always a thrill for me when my clients suggest a location I have never been to before. It’s like opening a new present. I make it a priority go get there much earlier than our appointment time, to walk around and look through the view finder and imagine what the final picture will look like.

The Sutton family loved the Gleannloch Farms entrance in Spring TX and off we went for their photo session there.

Breathtaking momma-to-be, Alison was radiating.

How much fun are these two?

Little Madison, big sister to be, literary stopped me in my tracks with this look:

We were amazingly lucky as the sun started setting and the golden hour arrived. The light turned very soft and flattering. The images to follow carry such a different feel – more sensual and leaving you with the feeling as if the rest of the World retracts and it’s all about the bond this family treasures.

I loved meeting this family. Thank you David, Alison and Madison for showing me this amazing location and letting me capture you before baby sister arrives.

Photo Cacophony New Client Packaging {Humble TX & The Heights Houston TX Family Photographer}

Posted on August 10, 2013 by photocacophony

As part of my packages I have always offered an instant download of the fully edited high resolution images. However, a lot of you have asked me for CDs – a tangible, meaningful home for the memories we captured together.

And so I am SUPER excited to introduce a special BONUS for all “Classic” and “Oh Baby! Newborn” sessions:

1/ a CUSTOM DVD with the images from your session:

2/ or if you prefer the instant download instead of the custom DVD, I’d love you to have my personal favorite – a KEEPSAKE 4×5 PROOFBOOK with 20-30 images from your session:

These bonuses are included only in the “Classic” and “Oh, Baby! Newborn” sessions. The “Short & Sweet” and the “Fly on the Wall” sessions come with an instant download only. However, you can choose the custom DVD and/or the keepsake proofbook as addons to those at $15/each!

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. 🙂 In fact I miss the era before digital photography with the photo albums that we had on coffee tables, and in photo boxes. I am on a mission to go through my personal digital albums and order keepsake books for each trip, event, milestone we’ve marked with my family.

Maggie – 6 months session {Eagle Springs Kids Photographer}

Posted on July 26, 2013 by photocacophony

I met Maggie during her sister’s Emerson photo session earlier this year. She was so quiet and delightful the whole time! When her mommy called me to schedule her 6 months session, I couldn’t wait to capture her peaceful demeanor.

We headed over to a field I had loved for my son’s fall pictures with the idea to tie it with Maggie’s adorable butterfly dress. My heart was literary broken when as we approached the location, we discovered that it was torn now by construction – a new neighborhood was going in. Very few patches of grass were left, yet the pictures that we squeezed in there are some of my favorites as they carry such an intriguing variety of color in them.

Thankfully, next to the field there was a park that welcomed us with its cozy woodsy feel. Baby Maggie was so happy to be out of the weeds 🙂 All we did is put a blanket down for her and she wowed us with her big smiles and playful character.
