Today we celebrated Jason’s 32nd birthday. After picking up Ty from school, we ran a few errands and were going to stop to pick up dinner. I called home to get everyone’s ‘order’. Jase gave me his, Taryn started yelling her order into the phone and then all of a sudden Teagan yells out “ketchup!!” “ketchup!!” “MOMMA KETCHUP!!!!!” Do you think this kid likes to dip stuff or what? Funny little guy…..

I am so in love with this face, this kid, this crazy little dude who will karate chop you out of nowhere and then love the bobo he inflicted with utter sincerity. I love the way he runs. And dances. […]

Oh what a difference a year makes | Austin Family Photographer

Last year, Father’s Day ’08. Teagan was 4 months old.

And oh what a year it has been. What a difference a mere 365 days makes. Father’s Day ’09….

What a chunk. I’m kind of proud of that, how much he’s grown, having nursed him for the last year. On the brink of weaning, I can look at him and say, I helped grow that. Crazy. We really had no intention of ever redoing this shot, but today, just before dinner we were bored and decided to give it a whirl just so we could compare and see how much he’s changed. I dug […]

I figured it out | austin family photographer

The cure for baby fever. The perfect birth control. Photographing my own family. We had plans while my mom was in town to head out for a family session and then go out to dinner. We talked to the kids about being cooperative and being well behaved. Unfortunately, the PCS was at an all time high and the Mother’s Day gift of cooperation soon turned to the gift of frustration. I can honestly say that I was on the verge of tears…..why are my kids so tough? Why is it easier to photograph clients? I’ve totally ruined them with daily “quick” and “one or two here and there” exposure to the camera. Don’t they understand that it would be easier […]

1. I said a little prayer for Taryn’s teacher as she headed out to school this morning. Poor woman is going to need all the help she can get after Taryn’s day yesterday and morning this morning. Jase joked he’d be dropping her at the door and running away as fast as he possibly can. LOL Three year olds are soooooo fun (wink wink).

2. I have such an emotional attachment to my wedding rings, they were given to Jason by his grandmother who had also inherited them. They were well over 100 years old when we got engaged in 2003. We had them re-sized when I was at my thinnest (2 kids ago) and it has really been bothering me […]

well, that’s one way to do it
