a few more from my session with teri and her family…..could she be any cuter???

when i told her how much i love her curly hair i was informed she doesn’t really have curly hair, she slept in pink foam rollers and oh man did that bring back some memories of being a little girl. those things were so uncomfortable and trying to find just the right position to lay your head so you could fall asleep was next to impossible. but it didn’t matter though, when you have straight, thin hair, there is nothing more exciting than to see your hair all bouncy the next morning. who needs sleep when […]

so this past weekend, MC accompanied me on the call for models shoot in downtown austin. for those that don’t know, MC is a local that i mentor. the term mentor is used loosely because i really stink at teaching….but we have fun together and she’s making great progress despite my horrid teaching skills. we hadn’t been out shooting together for a few months due to busy season, holidays, etc. so when she asked if she could go on the model shoot, i was thrilled. i was even more thrilled when we were walking downtown and she asked if we could stop for a minute and shoot in full sun….yeah buddy….that’s my girl!!! i was so proud. so we talked […]

new product! and a sale! | austin texas photographer

Ok, well, not really a new product, because I already sell storyboards, but a new way to display them! I’ve always mounted storyboards on foam core, but wow, look at this…..

I LOVE this! It is substantial, heavy, ready to hang and GORGEOUS. I want to fill my house with them! It’s always been a challenge to frame a storyboard, the frame choices for a 10×20 or 12×12 are out there, but they are limited. These gallery mounts eliminate the need for a frame and they come in several different finishes around the beveled edge. As shown above, you can do a creative crop on just one image to really make […]

One of the things I love the most about living in Austin is all the great friendships I’ve made with other photographers in the area. There is so much talent here, and I’m lucky that there is a small group of us that get along great. We can bounce everything from what vendor to use to what what jogging stroller to buy off of one another. We also all understand what it is like to always be behind the lens.

Teri did a great job taking family photos of us last summer and I was really excited to turn the camera on them early this morning. Teri requested we use the same location where Michele took our pics in September […]

My little vacation is over and I it feels great to get back in to the swing of things. I met up with a great couple in downtown Austin first thing this morning…..

I was so excited to meet them, you guys will get to see a lot of them over the next year. I’m lucky enough to get to capture everything from their pregnancy, the birth and then the first full year of memories. I am now offering a baby plan, complete with discounted session fees, packages and goodies. So if you are having a baby or even if you had a little one in the last few months, it’s […]
