Ouch. I took a bad fall at a newborn session. I fell over a small, oddly placed, step. It was a hard fall broken only by my camera, lens and concrete. Jason had to come and get me and bring me straight to the ER because as soon as I got up I could feel the bones moving around inside my foot. Thankfully, one of my dear photographer friends jumped in her car and rushed over to finish the session for me. One split second and a fall has turned in to a painful, expensive, nightmare. I could barely move, I hurt my foot, both knees, elbow, and my camera was shoved […]

I absolutely love doing “Fresh 48” sessions! They occur in the hospital after the birth but before the family heads home. You’d be surprised how much babies change in those first few days! They will look so different by the time a newborn sessions happens! Ms. Ruby is my newest baby planner and I’m so excited to get to photograph her first year. Unfortunately, I had to hire someone to cover her newborn session for me because I suffered a bad fall and foot injury during another newborn session the day after these photos were taken. My photog friend Tara did a beautiful job, but it was so hard for me to […]

Valentine’s Day Tea Party | Leander Texas Family Photographer

My mom and I planned this sweet little tea party for the kids the week of Valentine’s Day. We made all sorts of special treats and used my grandmother’s old tea set. I have so many wonderful memories of tea with my grandmother when I was a little girl. The set is chipped and dinged and that’s one of my favorite things about it. It means it was loved and used. So we had tea with our pinkies in the air and it was lovely!

This day was so SO so cold. And windy. Joan was such a big trooper! We took cover in the parking garage and I’m so glad we did. At the very end of our session we were blessed with the single most gorgeous Texas sunset I’ve seen. It peeked out from the clouds for just a moment and was glorious! We considered it our reward for the cold and wind and it was totally worth it!
