Captured by Cassandra Photography » Lubbock's Premier Child Photographer

Welcome!

I am so delighted that you have stopped by!

Children and photography is the only way of life for me. Even when I do not have a camera in my hands, I am constantly thinking about how I could capture what I see. My children bring me such joy, and in an effort to preserve everything about them, I constantly chase them around with a camera! I drive them crazy, but they know my heart is pure, so they put up with me quite well! :O)

Photography has always been something I have been obsessed with. I believe I caught the photo bug at a very young age. As a kid, my friends and I would put on elaborate photoshoots. Sometimes the camera had film, and other times it would not. I would spend every penny I could get my hands on to buy film and have it developed. I remember the joy I felt when I would pick up those rolls from the developer. In high school, I served on the Yearbook staff, where I shot in all kinds of elements, and I hand developed the film. I enjoyed everyday of that for four years.

Once I graduated, I began scrapbooking. I loved the creativity of it. My son was born in 2002, and I really went into photo overdrive. I took photos at social events, and I would give the prints to friends of their children. Friends began asking me to take their photos. Then, I began taking photos for friends of my friends. As the saying goes, the rest is history. That is how Captured by Cassandra Photography was born.

Currently I am a Photographer and Stay at Home Mom to two biological children, a foster mother to two girls and a boy, and a step mom to the two best kids anyone could ask for. We have fostered thirteen children over the past five years.
