My Main Man | San Antonio Child Photographer
Posted on September 13, 2011
When it comes to photography, my son is absolutely neglected. He’s so difficult to photograph I end up just wanting to toss my camera in the ocean. Ok, not really. But he IS difficult, so I rarely even try.
I decided to take him out this evening and just let him do what he loves to do. GET DIRTY!
I love these shots.


I think this is my favorite

The Birth Of Roy Alexander | San Antonio Birth Photographer
Posted on September 3, 2011
On Tuesday, I had the HUGE honor of photographing this family’s new addition. I have never had such a great time at a session before but this was awesome. We shared so many laughs that day I think I gained a few more laugh lines. It was so great to spend time with such an amazing family.
I’ve posted this video several times on Facebook, but I keep getting reported for Copyright Infringement. I’m not sure how that applies since the images belong to me and the song I have permission to use (Renee & Jeremy). I’m sure it’s just someone trying to get under my skin.
So anyway, I decided to post it on my blog since no one can pull it from here.
Enjoy!

For those of you that are photographers, you know that photographing your own kids is the hardest thing in the world. Seriously, every time I try, it turns into the worst experience ever and makes me want to toss my camera into the ocean.
Anyway, I was desperate to shoot ANYTHING and ANYONE, so I took my kids out. Of course like always, trying to photograph the other two was a massive fail. So I settled with just shots of the baby. I love them.



I think this one below is going to go on a huge canvas.

I’m baaaack! The Lovely April | San Antonio Maternity Photographer
Posted on July 14, 2011
Before I get to the good stuff, just want to update you guys on some stuff.
It’s been a long two months. I had surgery, I had a ROUGH recovery but I’m better now!
I’m going to be taking a very limited amount of sessions from here on out. Until further notice, I’m only able to schedule the following type of sessions, Maternity, Births, and Newborns (Under 2 weeks old). If you would like to book a session feel free to shoot me an email or contact me using the contact form above or on my main website.
Also, EMAILS. For some reason, my email address michelle@michellelugo.com isn’t receiving a lot of emails. I’ve noticed that I’m receiving emails WAY after they are sent. So if you have emailed me, please know that I’m not ignoring you, I probably haven’t received them. I’m getting this all worked out, but in the meantime, please email me at info@michellelugo.com if you need to contact me.
SO! Now onto the fun stuff. PICTURES.
I’ve known April since middle school! When she got pregnant we both knew that we wanted to get together to do her portraits. We FINALLY made it happen and met last week for her maternity session. I can’t wait to later photograph her birth and newborn photos!

I just love half faced mamas and their bellies! I’m queen of half face shots, lol.


Beautiful Family

And this is Abby! Isn’t she beautiful?

Happy Birthday Giulia | San Antonio Baby Photographer
Posted on May 15, 2011
I can’t believe it’s been a year!
Wanira was a beautiful, glowing mama to be. You can see her maternity pictures HERE.
Then about a week after her maternity session, I get a phone call that Miss Guilia was here. We schedule her newborn pictures and she was just as beautiful as her mama. Newborn photos HERE.
Six months later, Christmas rolls around and we schedule holiday pictures with Guilia and her cousin. It was one of my favorite sessions EVER and two beautiful babies make ANY job enjoyable. You can see those HERE.
THEN, it came time for Guilia’s baptism and I was so honored to get to spend the day with them and capture this special time in Guilia’s life. You can view her baptism pictures HERE.
So now, Guilia is about to be a year old. We met up yesterday at the park and did portraits along with a cake smash. It was amazing.



I mean REALLY?! How beautiful is this face?!

And the fun stuff!

These are so awesome! Totally remind me of my son – and probably the only type of photos mine would cooperate for – LOL! Love that first one.
Your black and white conversion is striking!
Boy…can I ever relate to you! I sat down to scrapbook the other day and only had a handful of photos of my own kids and tons of beautiful images of other people’s kiddos.
He is so sweet Michelle. I just love him. These are great shots, love the dirt.
Hi. I found you over at CM. I am of a mom of 3 boys, so I really appreciate these candid portraits of him playing in the dirt. I absolutely love the PP on them as well. Were these shot with an 85mm? your bokeh is simply amazing, so is your depth of field.
