another mock photo booth | austin family photographer

I did this with my own family awhile back and I really wanted to show the fun, silly, spontaneous side of Alex and his family. This was done 100% on location, no backdrop, no setup, just all of us sitting in a parking lot having some fun! Can’t beat that.

I created a new template because I wanted to be able to showcase 5 per strip instead of 4 and more importantly, I want to be able to print big (sized at 8 in x 40 in). Once I get all caught up I’ll come back and share the .psd file if anyone is interested.

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 […]

trying to catch up after teagan’s surgery

I’m still here, sorry for it being so quiet around here. I’m frantically trying to catch up from having lots of session and birth recently. I’ve been proofing like a crazy person. Teagan’s surgery last week really threw my entire schedule of work and home balance off….I’m here though!! I am plugging away if you are waiting on proofs from me and if I owe you an email or phone call, I’m working my way through those too!

I thought once Teagan was recovered from the surgery, things would go back to ‘normal’….only it is a new normal. He’s feeling so much better and he is EV.ERY.WHERE. Oh yeah, and he does his own tricks 😉

Teagan is doing really well. I don’t think we fully realized just how bad he felt before his surgery, we can see a huge difference in him already. He’s all over the place, into everything, talking lots and even body slammed his sister yesterday. It was as though he’d been waiting till he felt better, and when he did, watch out girlfriend, take that! It’s funny to see a little of it come back to her now and then, cause boy can she dish it out!! She didn’t even know what to do when he slammed in to her, all she could do was laugh.

Anyway, we took him out for a bit tonight for some fresh air. We have an […]

more will | austin newborn photographer

I’m really behind in blogging sessions so while the kids are all asleep and it’s nice and quiet, I thought I’d catch up a little bit between emails and catching up on proofing! You can see this little cuties sneak peek here (and here). Since his momma is a photographer I’m sure he’ll have tons and tons of pics but thanks Libby for letting me capture the first few days! I sooooo wish I had hired someone to come in and capture Teagan early on. Here are a few more faves from their session….

oh man, those last two totally crack me up!!

family | austin child & family photographer

It’s been awhile since I’ve had a family session that wasn’t a newborn, in home, instead of on location. I forgot how much I absolutely love in home sessions. I get to see who they are and capture the family interact and be themselves in their own space. Love that. This cute family had grandparents in for Easter and we managed to sneak in a session while they are still here. We played, we blew bubbles and danced and read books and chased the dog and blew kisses andcuddled and took a bubble bath and read a bedtime story with grandma…..whew, toddlers are busy! Oh, and we hung out with mommy….love these….
