this is the one i was really afraid i wouldn’t make it in time. i’m always a bit nervous when i’m on call for a birth that i won’t make it. i try to be ready to go on a moments notice. but this one, i was really nervous. noelle walked around for weeks at 4+ cm dialated. i jumped every time my phone rang. i’m so thankful that it worked out i got to be there. a-maz-ing birth experience. i cried when she was born. and when i was proofing. and when i finished the slideshow. yeah, i’m a sap, but it really was just that amazing. this birth experience was fast. and intense. and filled with emotion. and […]

Teagan has taken us on quite a wild ride with his hair. He was born with some, not tons, but some. Then it fell out. Then much to our surprise (since Taryn was bald for sooooo long), a bunch of fuzz popped up. Little dude had an all natural mohawk. We embraced it, it is just soooooo him. Such a juxtaposition, sweet lovey little baby, rock star hair. We’ve been talking for awhile about getting it cut, it was getting so long in the front, growing out and little strays were coming down into his eyes. Let me just say here that I never dreamed I’d be a mom who would give their baby a mohawk. And I will openly […]

I swear there is a baby boom going on in Austin right now! Everywhere I look I see pregnant mommas and brand new little babies! My March and April calendars are packed with birth and newborn sessions….I’m in heaven.

This little guy was soooo good for his session today. I love hearing how little ones come in to the world and this one gave his family a run for their money. He made his grand appearance only 17 minutes after getting to the hospital! Crazy huh?! He just looks so sweet and innocent….

his mom and i had a conversation about our mutual love of teeny, tiny, curly toed, flakey little […]

Almost exactly two years ago, I got a new camera and Ty and I went out exploring, giving the 5D a good breakin. Not planned, but we did the same thing yesterday. Can you believe how much he’s grown and changed???

Ty’s not the only thing that has changed….Several weeks ago I bought a new camera, I don’t think I’ve told y’all that. It’s already gotten a pretty good workout (this session and Teagan’s birthday I haven’t proofed yet). I’m totally in love with it. Worth every single penny and I’m super excited about the changes the new video technology will bring to my business. It will take some […]

So I’ve been really bad about not sharing more than sneak peeks from sessions since (cough couch) October. I’ve said so many times I will come back and feature those sessions and just haven’t found the time yet. And then I put off featuring the ones I’ve had recently cause I haven’t done the other ones….enter vicious cycle. I’ve decided to add it to my workflow, as I place orders with the lab and package everything up to go out to my clients, I vow to come back and share more favorites from the sessions. There are so many images I love that I don’t share and there just isn’t enough room on my website for them all….starting today….put your […]
