Benjamin - {18 months} - Sneak Peek!

Are you ready to have your heart melt? This little guy is SO cute! We met up on a very chilly day that was quite foggy and overcast. We were originally supposed to have a morning session, but had to change it to the afternoon due to rainy weather that morning. Benjamin pretended to be shy for the first few minutes (you can see some of the first photos he has this adorable bashful face). But then he quickly decided I was a-okay and he gave me some great expressions! It was so much fun chasing him around during the session! His mommy was so sweet and even played in the leaves with him at one point to get him interested. 

Here are just a few of my favorites!

Mark & Patricia - {Just Because} - Sneak Peek!

I met with this gorgeous couple last month. They had never had a professional photo session together before, so I was very excited that they decided to use me for their first one! You wouldn't be able to tell at all that they had never done this before. Mark & Patricia were total naturals in front of the camera! I am totally jealous of Patricia's gorgeous hair - if I even try to curl mine, it ends up looking like curly sue. It was so easy to see that Mark truly adores Patricia. Such a loving couple. :)

These are just a few of my favorites from their session!

The Tanners - {Family} - Sneak Peek!

I met up with this adorable family a few weekends ago for their family session. The location we chose happened to still have some beautiful fall color! All four of them looked fabulous. I love their coordinating outfits! Justin & Sally are wonderful to be around and their kids were a hoot! They definitely showed off their personalities during the session. It was so much fun being around all of them! During the session, Justin & Sally mentioned they had never had family photos done "like this" before. They went on to explain that all they ever had done was something of the Sears variety with the fake backgrounds, big umbrellas and bright flashes. I think my sessions are way more fun than that! When else do you get to run around outside & act silly? :) But in all seriousness, it makes me so happy that people choose me as their photographer! 

Now for the good stuff! Here are a few of my favorites from their session!

Austin, TX - {Fall/Holiday Mini-Sessions}

Can you believe it is NOVEMBER?!?

That is just crazy for me to even wrap my head around. It seems like it was July last week and now we are headed full steam ahead right into the holiday season. If you are in the Dallas area & haven't booked your mini-session yet, don't delay! There are only a few spots left!

After seeing if there was interest in the area, I have opened up a morning of mini-sessions in the Austin, TX area. This will be the LAST time I am in that area this year. If you want to book a regular session or mini-session with me, please contact me ASAP as spots fill up very quickly. Sessions are available on Saturday or Sunday, November 19th & 20th. The mini-sessions will be held the morning of the 20th. This is prime time to get photos done for the holidays!

The specific location of the mini-sessions will be in the north Austin/Round Rock vicinity. After booking your mini-session, you will receive information on the exact location. These are offered every half hour beginning at 8am and go until noon. Some of the time slots are already booked, so as I said before - don't wait to book! Feel free to pass this along to friends/family/co-workers. And don't forget: If you refer someone who books & completes a session, you get a $25 print credit!

Lish - {Professional Headshots}

Lish is a dear friend of mine & such a beautiful lady! She also happens to be a fellow photographer located in the Austin area. I was so excited to be able to do a few photos of her while I was in town (and had her do some new photos of me!). Check our her site at DeLish Images and show her some love!

These are my two favorites!

 I never noticed how gorgeous her eyes are until she was up against this green wall! 

So pretty!!

Jaxi & Buddy - {Fur Babies} - Sneak Peek!

If you know me, then you know I am a big time animal lover - especially when it comes to dogs. Jaxi & Buddy were both rescued and have the most loving home now! They really are like children to their owners. :) Jaxi & Buddy are highly energetic doggies, but are also really sweet. Not everyone has children in the traditional sense, so it is so great seeing someone love their fur baby as much as they would a child! It is always fun to do sessions that aren't necessarily the "norm" for me - although this really wasn't that much different than most of my toddler sessions because most of my time was spent chasing after these two. hah! 

Here are some of my favorites from their session!

Kyla - {Baby} - Sneak Peek!

This past weekend, I had a day full of sessions in Austin, TX! My first session of the day was with Kyla - one of the most beautiful baby girls I've ever seen! Before her session, I had seen a few photos of her on her aunt's Facebook page, but nothing could prepare me for how utterly adorable she is. (Seriously - how do I end up being able to photograph the cutest babies/kids/people ever?!) Her aunt contacted me earlier this summer and wanted to purchase a session for Kyla's mommy's upcoming birthday. I thought that was such a cute idea! 

Kyla's mommy & daddy are obviously in love with her and adore her (rightfully so!). Throughout the entire session and many outfit changes, I think she may have fussed one time for approximately 4 seconds. It's unreal how laid back she was! And her expressions --- pretty sure I can't describe just how great they were so have a look! 

I tried to narrow it down, but there were so many great ones!!

I love when clients bring something special or meaningful to them for their session. This baby doll is her mommy's first baby doll! Love it!

 This is one of my favorite photographs of ALL time! 

She posed herself & rocked that camera!

It's not easy being this cute.

And another reason why she is so cute...

She totally winked at me!!

Thank you guys so much for such a wonderful session!!

Pretty Things! - {New Products}

It's always fun to add new products to our current line! Here are two examples of some of the fun new products that were recently ordered that I have fallen in love with.

In the post about the upcoming mini-sessions I mentioned that custom designed premium cards will be available this year. Here's a little peak at how fabulous they are! These are the custom designed announcements for Baby A who made her appearance last month.

This is the back of the announcement

I love the texture of the cards. They feel so soft, yet durable in your hands!

And the tiniest glance at the front side. (Purposely blurred for privacy)

Aren't they beautiful?!

And the other fun product that was also from Baby A's session:

A necklace!

This necklace is on an 18 inch sterling silver chain and the photo portion measures approximately 5/8"x1/4".

And my other favorite part of the necklace....

The tiny charm by the clasp.

If I had to guess - this will be a huge hit for the grandmothers!

I hope you have a great weekend! More Sneak Peeks will be up next week. :)
