Sneak peek from this morning's wildflower mini | Austin children's photographer

I'm not the sneak-peek type, but I just couldn't help it, since these are so timely. These two darlings came out and braved the tall vegetation for these wildflower photos this morning. It's not easy to lug that big ol'chair to that spot, so I really do need to schedule these sessions back-to-back. I think the wildflower field will be changing and blooming for at least another month or two. Bluebonnets, on the other hand, are short-lived. I'm doing WF minis tonight, April 6th, and I still have the 6:00 and 6:30 slots open. I'm also doing them Saturday, April 10th, and I still have 5:30 and 7:00 open. If you want BLUEBONNETS ONLY, let's talk about times for those, in the next week or so, before they start looking scraggly. I use a different field for bluebonnets ONLY, and it's a much easier place to get to. CALL ME FOR AVAILABILITY!! 538.0866.

Rebecca & Benton | Austin wedding photographer {I can't believe I just typed that}

I don't shoot weddings, right?? Apparently, I do. Rebecca and Benton asked, and I accepted. This couple is absolutely adorable, and it's so obvious they love each other like crazy.

Benton does origami, and he MADE that bouquet. How awesome is that? I love the hairspray shot.

Dwayne Hills of www.dhillsphotography.com was my "second shooter." We had a blast!

Their sweet doggies had the run of the place, and they definitely wanted to get in on that ceremony action.

House on the Hill had so many adorable places for couples photos!

I LOVE the way Rebecca's bridals came out. Isn't she gorgeous?

Newborn twins! | Austin twins photographer {archive post: October 2009}

These two were such a joy to play with during their session. I honestly don't remember them crying at all.

Love his hair | Austin newborn photographer {archive post: October 2009}

Great hair, great eyes. What an awesome look for a newborn baby. I do hope I get to see him grow! He was so alert through the whole session. I think he's a genius.

Insanely gorgeous family | Austin maternity photographer {archive post: October 2009}

Are you kidding me??? Look at these three! What a dream session for me. And I've already seen the baby. :) You'll just have to wait until I get around to blogging those images.

Here's the beautiful big sister.

Newborn mohawk | Austin newborn photographer {archive post: September 2009}

This little guy was just so perfect during his session back in September. Whether he was awake or asleep, he just did everything right! And he looked so darling doing it.

Sweet, funny girly | Austin children's photographer {archive post: September 2009}

I just love this little one's iconic curls. And those big, soulful eyes. Her little sailor suit is hilariously sweet!

Two sweet sisters | Austin children's photographer {archive post: September 2009

Look at these two darling little girls!! I have photographed big sis and her mama a couple of times, and I was so excited when they brought me the new baby, who just so happens to look EXACTLY like her big sister. Oh, and check out those little toes!! They're almost edible.

Beautiful little newborn | Austin newborn photographer {archive post: September 2009}

This little beauty was a perfect little model at her newborn session. And I'm totally jealous of the entire family's skin! They're all so pretty!

Introducing Mackenzie Reed! {archive post: September 2009}

This gorgeous young actress used her Groupon coupon for a headshot session. We ended the session by setting up a strobe on the deck at her apartment building. She's so much fun!

WILDFLOWERS!! | Austin children's photographer

Yay!! My other old spot is coming into its own right now. There are all kinds of flowers there, and it's just gorgeous. Tell me who's interested in minis, and we'll get it set up. There are even bluebonnets in that spot. Love it. Be aware, it's very, very deep. Parent's should plan on carrying their children through the field and should wear PANTS AND BOOTS. It's so worth it, though.

Four generations | Austin family photographer {archive post: September 2009}

The gorgeous trio you see together here are the first three generations in this family. And the little beauty is the fourth. We shot this session in my friend Ginny's studio, since we we didn't want to make Great-Grandma trek up my stairs or through a park in 100-degree weather. She is a firecracker, and I'm so honored to have photographed this whole family together.

Mama and son | Austin maternity photographer {archive post: September 2009}

*sigh* These two are just precious. I can't help but think about Jack and me right before Chuck was born. But anyway, what a sweet pair. I'll bet he's the best big brother ever.

Happy Birthday, L! | Austin kids' photographer {archive post: september 2009}

The little blondie at the bottom had us over for his third birthday celebration. What a blast!! And there were so many cute kiddos there, I couldn't stop taking pictures!

Having a ball | Austin kids photographer {archive post: september 2009}

I'm so lucky to have this little darling living so close to me. She sure knows how to have fun! Love her.

YMCA silent auction winners! | Austin family photographer

This sweet family won the session I donated last year to the YMCA silent auction. They have two absolutely adorable kids who love to ham it up.

four brown eyes | Austin childrens' photographer {archive post: september 2009}

I love it when these two come in. I have been photographing big sister since she was six weeks old! Look at that chunky baby!!

Watch out. Those eyes will melt your heart.
