The "S" Family - Austin Texas Family Christmas & Holiday Portraits




Another beautiful family who came out to Mayfield Park to battle the heat for the sake of beautiful family portraits.  "D" really enjoyed that we were able to go on a peacock hunt! That always makes for a great time.

"B" Family - Austin Family Christmas Portraits




I had so much fun with the "B" Family! I mean, look at the pictures, doesn't it look like fun!  They had so much energy and we got our workout.  I love my warm Texas November's, but when you are dressed in "winter" clothes it takes a toll on you.  Totally worth it for the result.  Thank you "B" Family for letting me capture these moments.

Double Vision - Austin Family Holiday, Christmas Portraits






It's that time of year again, cooler weather, sweaters, hot cocoa...Christmas.  I love this time of year and I love all the wonderful families that let me into their worlds, if only for a bit.  I have been friends with this beautiful family for years and was so exciting to be in the same town as them for a day to capture their twins.  We had a blast chasing the boys around!!

Austin Newborn Photography




One of the best parts of being a photographer is watching families grow.  I have been taking this beautiful family's pictures of years.  They recently welcomed a new addition to the family and I was more then happy to share their joy and help them remember him forever as a newborn.

Baby JD - Austin Newborn Portraits


Meet my 5th nephew, Josiah David "JD".  Baby JD was born with a heart problem called Transposition of the Great Arteries.  He had two surgeries his first week of life, including open heart surgery.  He was finally released from the hospital last Friday and of course I made the trip down to San Antonio to welcome him home.  I am so proud to know such a strong little guy.  He has more strength then anyone I know.  I love my newest nephew with all my heart!  Many, many more pictures to come.

Julie - Maternity Portraits - San Antonio - Austin - Texas



I've had the pleasure of taking pictures for this family since "my little buddy" was still in his mommy's tummy.  I loved getting to watch the family grow.  They now have a new addition but I was able to capture his glowing mom a few days before.

Photo Challenge | Beautiful Eyes


Okay, so I haven't done a challenge in a while but saw the theme and had the perfect picture I just did of my nephew.  I love his eyes...and him of course.  He was the reason I started taking pictures of people 12 years ago, my original muse! Check out the other great entries:  http://www.iheartfaces.com/2011/08/photo-challenge-beautiful-eyes/

Photo Session for Donations

After finding out that my soon to be born nephew will be born with a congenital heart problem, Transposition of the Great Arteries, I decided to do my part to help bring awareness to this issue.  As a big sister, when I heard this news I wanted to do what I had always done for my little sister: fix it.  I know that this is something that I can't fix, so I can't think of a better way to help with the large amount of medical bills than do what I do best: take pictures.  All portrait sessions (family, newborn, children, seniors, engagement, bridals) I book until the end of the year will be purely donation only. You decide what you want to donate, and I will take your pictures. It’s a win/win for all. For your generous donation, I will provide you with a session at the location of your choice and a disk of 20-30 edited pictures. I will retain the copyrights, but you will be provided a printing release. Please share this with anyone you know who might be interested and contact me to set up a session or for more details. Please keep in mind that because the donations are going to an individual, they are not tax deductible.
