Jen & Matt | Austin Night Photographer

Matt is an awesome gift giver. For real. I wish he’d have a little chat with my hubs. He loves to gift Jen photo sessions as a surprise and this one sure was fun. I have photographed them with their two beautiful girls several times but it was super cool to get to hang out with them as a couple in downtown Austin. Jen & Matt, I hope you love your photos!

Molly & Daniel | Love Light Night Maternity Session

When Molly contacted me about doing a maternity love light night session I quite literally jumped up and down. Maternity combined with the dark downtown romance….yes please! LOVE this idea Molly! The sweet little boy residing in that cute bump will appear on the blog in a few days too.

Leek Soup

Leek Soup is a favorite around here. I pretty much always have leeks on hand because I use them to make homemade bone broth. I like to try out different recipes and this week I tried one by The Gluten Free Goddess and it was pretty good. I did alter her recipe though. Instead of water for the stove top version I used a combination of 2 parts homemade beef bone broth and 1 part organic coconut milk. That gave our soup a big nutritional boost! I also added in a bunch of Herbamare (my absolute favorite organic seasoning blend). This soup is really *really* good if you […]

pregnant, texas style | cedar park maternity photographer

I haven’t been posting sneak peeks for mini sessions as much as I used to, but this one from this morning, I just can’t resist! I love this family and I’m so excited that I get to photograph their new little one in just a few short weeks. It feels like yesterday sweet Lila was hanging out in the highchair, all brand new.

watermelon slush | austin food photographer

We had half of a small organic watermelon left over this week. I rarely ever buy them and I wasn’t about to let it go to waste! The kids and I chopped it up and fed it through our Breville Juicer. Oh my goodness, just a small amount gave us a ton of juice! We then added some ice to our fresh watermelon juice and made a slush with our Magic Bullet. Just watermelon and ice, that’s it. Oh my, so refreshing on a hot summer day. And so much better than driving through Sonic like we used to. Did you know that Sonic refuses to disclose the ingredients […]
