one setup, three shots | austin newborn photographer

It’s been awhile since I posted something like this and I thought it was about time. Not sure how helpful it will be, but I took a few setup shots when I was over at MC’s photographing baby Tommy recently. MC had several requests for his newborn photos, one being that she wanted some of them earthy, natural and that they have a lot of texture. Finding green in the massive heatwave that is Texas right now is tough, but we did it, and with high sun! These were shot maybe around 2 pm in the afternoon, but on a large covered porch. The light was good and bright so I was able to put his back to the light […]

10 on Tuesday | austin photographer

1. I celebrated my 34th birthday yesterday. It was a nice day, relaxed with my family, got a ton of wonderful birthday wishes, phone calls from loved ones, fun birthday mail and a nice dinner out with my favorite people in the world. Oh, and even a few new toys for my camera! All in all, a good day.

2. When i asked Taryn how old she thought I was, I about fell over when she said “FOUR HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN”. Wow, I knew it was a loaded question but sheesh!

3. My mom’s birthday is tomorrow, Happy Birthday Eve Mom!!!

4. I think the most awesome of all the gifts I received was from Taryn. She drew me a great big picture […]

its not what you think | austin birth photographer

You may THINK the following post and images are about 4th of July.

and fireworks and family and kiddos draped in a flag.

((I’m still amazed Taryn held a sparkler….she’s deathly afraid of fireworks. It lasted all of 2.2 milliseconds when she threw it across the yard and ran the opposite direction…can’t believe I caught that shot through the window!))

You may THINK that this post is about grown men who love to blow stuff up.

Or you might THINK that this post is about little boys trying […]

4th | austin photographer

This 4th of July is the first one I haven’t spent with my mom in a loooooooong time. The 4th is always a time filled with family and birthday parties and bbq’s and fireworks and we always spend it together. My birthday is on the 6th and hers is on the 8th, so it’s always a celebration. It’s hard to be away, when I really wish I was there. We distracted ourselves this morning by doing crafts with the kids, we made flags for our get together tonight…..Teagan and Jase had a little too much fun with the pipe cleaners……

I sure do miss you Mom, and thinking of you lots.
