I first met him when he was three months old, so it’s hard to believe Winston is now an energetic three year old! Last month, I documented his birthday party for the third year in a row.

W’s parents are extremely cool and always have a fun theme or special element to add some pizzaz to the party. Whether a bucket of cake, silly string, petting zoo or temporary tattoos for each guest, you know these events are sure to be a fun time!

Here is a small sample of fun from our afternoon.

Happy birthday, Winston! Stay cool, kid.

Secret Post

Looks, charm, wit, smarts? This girl’s got ‘em all, and now she can add professional head shots to the list. :)

A stunning beauty – those curls! – Cameron can make your sides hurt from laughing so hard (although she’d never brag about herself like I am doing right now).

We had the most magnificent time taking her head shots. I’m going to let you in on a little secret: when it’s misty and humid outside, that’s usually a recipe for a photo shoot disaster (curly haired girls, ya feel me?). But, check it! The weather couldn’t even phase Cameron’s beauty!

A New Addition

The moment I heard the news I thought, “Oh, how perfect.”

You see, my colleague Laura and her husband Michael are going to be the best parents. These two exude happiness and joy! They’re expecting their first child and this baby is already so loved!

I had the best time with L&M in downtown Austin as the sun was setting on the city. We got to photograph some areas I’d eagerly scouted out, and each place helped capture part of their personalities and relationship.

So looking forward to meeting Michael Jr. this summer. Until then, we will all have fun anticipating his arrival. :)

There are few things more beautiful to me than Texas in the springtime.

Maybe it’s the comfort and familiarity of wildflowers and bluebonnets as patches pop up on the side of the road. Maybe it’s the glorious change in the weather. Hey – maybe it’s the fact that allergies don’t bother me as much when the rain finally sweeps through. :) Whatever the reason(s), it’s a gorgeous time of year that deserves to be documented.

That’s why my family (+ two amazing guests ;) ) recently got together for a quick photo shoot! Extra fun part? I got to be in the pictures, too!
