A few words about me, my style, my life... My name is Courtney Miller and I'm a photographer located in Dallas-Fort Worth. I spend most of my days juggling between my two crazy kids, one incredible husband, one over-grown yellow lab, and persuing this amazing adventure as a photographer. I've been photographing for years, but not until my daughter was born in 2003 did my interest in children's photography ignite.
I am inspired by the stillness of their souls and energy of their hearts. I strive to capture this quality not through static, posed images, but kinetic, spontaneous interactions. My style of photography is known as "lifestyle" because it's about beautifully documenting your child, your family, your life as you know it right now. I think if you stick around here a while, you'll see what I'm talking about. If this looks like something you're about, drop me a line. I can tell you right now, I already love your family!
Meet Mr. N, he’s one happy guy! And wouldn’t you be if you just celebrated your first birthday and got to move back to Texas?! Little N just rolled through his session like a trooper all smiles and all around! It was my kind of morning!
Peek-a-boo!!
Big boy…
love….
Thank you I family for such a magical morning! Enjoy your Sneak Peek! MWAH!
When you’re expecting baby number 2, the last few days you have with your first baby are so precious. There’s a part of you that knows that, for your little family of three, things are about to get very different. Good different, joyful different, so-incredibly-blessed-different, but different none-the-less.
With this in mind, I met with my favorite little red-headed baby planner last week. She’s going to be a big sister very soon and we wanted to capture her sweet, crazy, funny, stubborn, cuddly, playful, almost-two-year-old little self a bit before the big arrival. She has grown so much and is full of so much personality! We let her take the lead and I think what we ended up with was a gorgeous session showcasing an amazing family who is about to get a little bigger. This is what Lifestyle Photography is all about…making Art out of Life.
Thank you guys for an amazing session! I can’t wait to see you again in a month or so to welcome Baby A! Hang in there! MWAH!
These are so full of life! How beautiful the bond between a mama and her little one!
Adorable! I love how little sister was so much a part of this session 
Oh MY! These are so cute!! I love the interaction and I love that you captured them in her room. So sweet.
So beautiful, ethereal! Love the light and playfulness in all of these. Beautiful memories for this mommy!

Look who’s on the move! I just love watching baby planners grow! We got to visit with Miss M last week and boy has she changed in 3 months. Crawling, babbling away and loving her new walker toy that she just HAD to show off for me!
Hanging out with her obviously two favorite people!
Check out those new teeths!
It was so great to see you guys again! Miss M is an absolute doll! Enjoy your sneak peek! MWAH!
I spent the morning with this sweetie pie last week and had so a blast! There’s a lot of personality in this little 19 month old and he gave it all he had! First we played in his room a bit and he showed me all his favorite toys…
some mom and dad time…
then a bit of reading…
and ended up with some fun with mom and dad at the park!
Thank you M Family for a fun-filled morning! I had a great time getting to know your precious family! MWAH!
As I sit here contemplating oil spill and 100 degree temperatures in June, I am reminded of a special evening not long a go, when the air was still crisp, but held with it a hope of sunshine of the season to come. Inspired by this promise of warm, lazy days, we grabbed our bug catchers and embarked on a spur-of-the-moment-after-dinner-nature-expedition. And then magic happened.
Couldn’t resist sharing a few more.
After nine months of waiting for this sweet baby girl, I was so excited to finally meet Baby H last weekend! Her big brother has been a baby planner of mine for the last two years, so her arrival was met with much excitement around here! We grabbed a few maternity images at Big Brother C’s 2 year session. Isn’t mommy beautiful?
And one month later…
Isn’t she gorgeous?!
and a few of big brother showing off his big boy bed..
so sweet…
Hand in hand.
Congratulations again, W family! She’s a keeper! MWAH!
I can’t believe how fast 6 months flies by and how much a little newborn can change in that short amount of time! Miss M was just a tiny thing back last October, but look at her now! All full of giggles and expressions and lots to talk about! We got her all dressed up to do a Springtime session!
Thank you guys for a beautiful session! Miss M is just a doll! MWAH!
These two were just precious! All fun and mischief wrapped up in their springtime best outfits! I loved it!
And some sweet, brotherly love for his baby sister!
