has been saving all his smiles for his momma. he’s holding out on me. i mean, come on now jack, i got more smiles at 3 days old! but at 2 months old, this is all i get?!?!?

ppppffffftttt! i’ll forgive him because 1) he snuggled right up to me friday night and 2) he’s a delicious smelling, chubby little man and 3) he had just gotten his 2 mo shots a few hours earlier.

it’s ok, i’m gonna get him. i’m on a mission now.

and i just totally realized that i never came back to share his newborn photos….bad blogger…..I promised that weeks ago! i’ll make up for it by sharing […]

just one this morning of sweet baby jack. he got all dressed up for the tea party last night too.

Can you believe he’s 6 weeks old already?! His little comb over hair totally cracks me up. And this reminds me that I never came back and shared more of his newborn photos before we left for vacation! I will do that this week!! I have a ton to share!

The kids really had so much fun last night, between the tea party, exploring the beautiful park, chattering on about castles and princesses, spotting peacocks and running from pond to pond looking for fish and turtles, they were on cloud 9. It […]

Another mini ready to share. This family is celebrating the first birthday of their little guy and boy do I love this age.

I love this little smile and his big, bright eyes….

and the ever famous…..momma’s gonna get yoouuuuu…..

I have been a working machine this weekend. I finished all the Louisiana mini sessions (those shares are coming soon once I hear back from everyone regarding their galleries) AND I finished proofing Jodie’s family beach session.

I am feeling a bit of pressure to post something really interesting after her well worded and thoughtful post when she shared our images. ((be sure to click on that link, not only will you see my family, but Jodie’s new kick butt blog too)) What should I talk about? Cellulite? Nah…..let’s just get this party started by sharing some photos and talk about how fan-flippin-tastic this family is. They are real and honest and uh, yeah, did I mention, adorable. Just look […]

little dude, love you | austin family photographer

I love the way you say Momma with intensity, with urgency. “Daddy” is calm, “Taryn” is calm, “Ty” is calm, “Momma” is urgent. And loud. And funny.

I love the way you named your blankie “Mae”. You have no idea that Ty’s lovie when he was a baby was a dog named “Freckle Mae The Wonder Dog” or that when Taryn was born she renamed that dog “Mae Mae”. What are the odds you’d choose Mae for your lovie too with no encouragment.

I love it when you look at me like this. I melt into a big pile of mush every single time…..

I love your teeth right now. I know they […]

About a week ago I was over reading Jodie Allens blog and found out she was heading to the beach the same time as us. Turns out we were going to be a few hours apart, but worked it out to meet in the middle and swap sessions on the beach. I was thrilled to get to meet her and have her photograph my family! I love her work, she sees beauty in places so many of us overlook. It about killed me to have her photograph my family and not have one of her “love light” sessions just for me and Jase….I’ve wanted one for.ev.er. But today was the day we met up. I was still feeling a […]
