Memorial Park Headshots: Alicia Pyne Photography

Seven months, one week and five days ago, Dylan and I left the comfort of home and family to move 1,800 miles away. We traded Wegmans for Randalls, pizza for tacos, and friends for, well, no friends… Moving to a state we’d never been, with faces we didn’t recognize wasn’t easy, but we’ve been so blessed to develop some amazing friendships during this past half-year. Many of them are clients or other Houston photographers. But Alicia Pyne is both. I had the honor of meeting Alicia during her mentor session a few months back, and was instantly smitten with her sweet heart and readiness to laugh at my stupid jokes. :) Last weekend, I had the additional honor of shooting Alicia‘s new head shots. But it was more like hanging out with a friend. With one epic teal-tufted chair..

Alicia – Thank you SO much for the opportunity to shoot your beautiful face! I am blessed by your friendship. And I hope you enjoy your images!! XOXO!!

Introducing the teal-tufted chair. Read *THIS* post by Alicia to hear the backstory. It’s pretty fun. :)Do werk, girl!
Alicia, you’re so fabulous, I can’t even stand it…Oh sweet, beautiful haze. How I love thee.Favorite, and faaavorite. Can’t you just hear her laugh?Windblown looks good on you.This was likely when I began freaking out about the possibility of rattlesnakes in the grass. This is Alicia all, “Puh-lease, New Yorker!”This light was divine.And then I stuck her in some weeds. The following two shots are probably my most favorites!Special shout out to Miss Kaley Gross, who shadowed us on our shoot! XOXO!!How gorgeous is she?!And one more just to show off those stunning eyes.

Happy Thursday, all! :)

    Blair Pyne - What did you do with my wife! That is not my wife up there! This women is a Model. Alyse if these pictures you took are really of my wife than God darn it I am one lucky man!!! I married a Model and an Artist, who would have ever thought a small town boy of 598 people in 1980,674-1990 could have ever managed to find such a beautifully women like Alicia. Thanks for taking great photos of her, but I told her I could have done it with a disposable camera. Needless to say she thought that idea was not a good one, and wanted a bit more professionalism to show in her head shots than what I had to offer.
