welcome. Thanks for stopping by!  This is my brand-new, totally amazing blog.  I am pumped to be able to share my voice and my photography with the whole wide world.  My name is Julie Wilhite and I am a portrait/wedding photographer based out of Houston, TX.  That's right, I'm a Texan...and I promise I don't ride a horse to work everyday.  Feel free to take a look around, maybe even drop me a note.  Would love to hear from you!

On Chris and I's quest to eat more local and organic food, we decided to head out to the new Haven restaurant in our neighborhood with friends. It is the first certified green restaurant in Houston and was absolutely delicious! You are surrounded in super modern surroundings and offered a menu of ever-changing seasonal meals. They are a "farm to table" type menu, which basically means what it sounds - your food comes directly from the farm. If there is an item they can't find at the farm, they take the item off the menu and replace it with something else that is in season. Basically, you are eating the way we were meant to eat.  In seasons. Before we started shipping fruits and vegetables from halfway across the world...

I promise I won't go on and on, but I will encourage you to support the movement and go enjoy an amazing new restaurant! I had the long fin white tuna and it was soooooo good. I also strongly recommend the squash bisque. Oh, and the shrimp corndogs! Yum!

introducing - temper trap.
12.17.09
I apologize for my lack of blogging this week.  :( Our house has been lovingly under construction, which for me, meant no tv and no internet.  What is a girl to do? THEN, I got sick. Sigh. Sometimes life throws everything at once.

One thing that has kept me upbeat is Temper Trap.  My sister Cindy (congrats on her music taste!) introduced me to them. The song Sweet Disposition (my absolutely favorite) is also on the movie (500) Days of Summer.  It is heaven.  I promise, they are the answer to your prayers to make it through a dreary day or an entire dreary winter.  Check them out here.

sneak peek from the weekend.
12.15.09

I had a wonderful weekend...filled with family, friends and BABIES. Now before my Mom starts getting all excited about baby fever, I want to say aloud that I am not ready to welcome my own little wee one to the family, but I definitely enjoy snuggling, kissing and loving on babies.  I went to Dallas this past weekend to meet my cousin's new baby, Moses, and one of my oldest friends new baby, Wyatt. Both babies are so adorable.  Since I wasn't there when they were both born, they are both around 3 to 4 months and giggling and laughing up a storm. Moses was even holding himself up!  His muscles were amazing!

Here is a sneak peek of my favorites.  Here is little baby Moses:

Just wanted to tell everyone happy Friday!  I am off to hang out in Dallas for the weekend with my cousin. Time for relaxation and meeting the new babies that have joined this world. Don't worry, I'm bringing my camera. I loooove shooting babies.

Here is a little jumping action to get your Friday started. Just in case you were wondering if we were happy to be in South Africa...

Due to Mallory's early morning chanting, I decided to post the lion video. :) All of the other safari videos you see with corny statements and "WOWs" escaping multiple times is true for my video as well.  I also do not plan on a career in videography, so I know my video won't be winning any awards. But I promise, it will make your jaw drop!
