About Sabrina K. Photography:

Welcome to my blog! I'm Sabrina Koogler, and I love photography! I always have my nose in a photography book, camera to my face, working on a challenge, workshop, or contest (in between sessions and processing!) becoming the best photographer I can be! I used to teach high school Spanish, and now I'm a stay-at-home mom to two adorable, rascally boys. Sabrina K Photography is my third baby, born of the need to document all of the milestones, wild times, and quiet moments of my children and others. My style is fun and natural. I seek to document the authentic "you" in my images. I offer custom portraiture in the Houston area, and I'm based in Pearland. I enjoy working with natural light and studio lighting--it's fun having a dual-sort of personality! And it certainly keeps things interesting!

    Chicken Littles

    Wednesday, March 28th, 2012

    So here is my super-belated sneak peek from my Spring/Easter mini-sessions from a few weekends ago. I guess it’s only 11 days ago, but I’ve been so busy it feels like eternity!

    I have to say that I enjoyed me 48-hours as a chicken-rancher. I really enjoyed the sounds of their sweet peeps. I love how my boys loved them. I love how all the kids really thought they were pretty awesome! But I also love that they went to their new home to peep (and poop) and lay eggs and scratch and crow the very next day. I always was hesitant to do a “live animal” session because I was not sure how humane it was. I can tell you with complete confidence that these chicks were treated with kid gloves and it was very humane. I purchased them from a hatchery that agreed to take them back, but one of my friends saw how cute they were and added them to her existing brood of hens. (Is that right, brood? I have learned a LOT about chickens, but maybe not all the finer points!)

    Well, enough of my yammering and on to the chicks! Here is a massive share!!!

    I LOVE the progression with every child with the chicks–there was some uncertainty, curiosity, and then usually lots of happiness!

    O my goodness this big smile is one of my top two favorites from the WHOLE DAY!!!!!!

    Okay totally my favorite of the day. Her face his is absolutely PRICELESS!!!

    Whew! Did you get enough cuteness! I really enjoyed these mini-sessions and hope they become an annual event! Cheep cheep!

    Spring/Easter live baby chick Mini-sessions

    Saturday, February 25th, 2012

    If you’ve seen my posts on Facebook, you know I’m offering Spring/Easter mini-sessions this year with live baby chicks. I cannot wait to cuddle with some sweet cheeping yellow fluffiness! I hope you’ll join me this year taking some adorable portraits of your precious little ones!

    Here are some details:

    The background set will be a combination of spring pastels and white, easily coordinating with your child’s Easter/spring outfit. Once it is assembled, I will be emailing out a sample portrait so you can see it.

    Feeling lucky?

    Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011

    It’s March! Where is this year running away to??
    March. St. Paddy’s! Luck ‘o the Irish! Kind of a bittersweet time around our house with my husband’s dream-of-living-in-Ireland-and-getting-to-live-there-(and-play-football-again!)-only-for-it-to-be-cut-short thrown back into the mix with the celebration of St. Patrick’s Day. Sometimes it’s hard to look around Houston and remember those rolling green hills (and the rain. and the cold. and the black ice. and the lack of public restrooms, which, when you are hugely pregnant are VERY important, let me tell you!) Wait, am I ranting?
    Just pass me a green beer and I’ll be fine. (It’s been that kind of week!)
    I woke up yesterday with strep throat. Fun! So this week has been turned on its head.
    Entered this image in a contest today with the theme of “green”. It was fun.

    Oh, and I almost forgot! (Actually, I did forget and am coming back to edit!) Kelly Willette is offering another FREE workshop this month: Joy of Luck! Click the link here to go to her site to sign up!
    So get your greens and your pinching fingers ready for later in the month! I’m looking forward to feeling better!

    Will You Bee Mine?

    Wednesday, January 26th, 2011

    (If you’re looking to enter the free portrait session contest, visit the post below or click the link here.)

    What’s the buzz? I’ve decided to do some “Bee Mine” Valentine’s Day Mini-Sessions. Yes, it’s somewhat last-minute, but if you know me you KNOW I can’t resist the opportunity to take portraits for a holiday!

    Quick, 30-minute session on February 5 at my in-home studio (yes, I MUST get the house unpacked by then!). Session fee includes one digital file of your choice with print release (you will view your proofing gallery early in the week to allow for time for cards, etc.).  Plus some fantastically discounted offers for prints and products from the session! $50+tax. Reserve your session now! Contact me at info@sabrinakphotography.com.

    What can you expect? Have fun with some props (mine or yours–think lipstick kisses from mom, giant lollipops, box of candy, bows, pettiskirts, lots of red, white and pink!). We’ll aim for around 6-8 fantastic images of your cuties. This limited set can accommodate 3 kiddos max.  Contact me to book your session today!

    Here’s some fun I had with my munchkins the other day:

    Oh heavens, I pray for the day that I stop loving selective color. Until then, I will still offer this throwback to 1996. So if you love it too, let’s join hands and sing “Ice, Ice. Baby” like we mean it.

    All we need is. .. LOVE!

    I heart storyboards!

    Yes, this is an “outtake”. But I love it! Just because they’re my kids certainly does not mean they enjoy being in front of the camera all of the time! Little Man seems pretty fed up with all this “love” stuff anyway!

    Here’s the one I’ll be sending out this year. My three-year-old has discovered his “cheese” smile. *sigh* Otherwise he’s not looking at the camera. At least not when the baby is! I still love it!

    We can add a little bit of “whimsy” to your images if you’d like.

    Oh, my, I love this little man. And I sure would love an assistant to have kept these glasses on for one nanosecond longer! But I’m glad to see those baby blues as well!

    Gotta love these Babylegs. I can’t get enough of them. I mean, I would consider trying to have a girl just to put her in babylegs all the time. Okay, so I’m totally joking. Well, maybe not totally! And Little Man crawled around in these for a little while–I figure they are gender-neutral enough!

    So that’s just a sample. See anything you like? Contact me to book your mini-session today!

    (And did you notice? Two blog posts–and two big promotions!–in one day! Can you tell I got some reinforcements with the kids this morning? Thanks, Dad!)
