On the eve of New Years Eve, my best friend Christine married the love of her life, Ryan. The glorious day began at 9am sharp, as all the bridesmaids gathered together at the Driskill hotel in downtown Austin for hair, makeup, mimosas and relaxation. Before Jeff Loftin Photography and his team showed up to document [...]

I don’t know about you, but the first month of 2012 was SO BUSY. Between getting back in the swing of things at the office, having a full agenda almost every weekend, and somehow acquiring strep throat (yuck), I haven’t had a moment to take a deep breath, much less write a decent blog entry. [...]

Liam, you’re breakin’ my heart kid. Will you just look at those baby blues? Just before Thanksgiving, I met up with Liam and his ever-cool parents, Jennifer & Rand, at the base of the Pennybacker Bridge off 360 for our second annual family photo shoot. I had a great time hanging out with these sweet [...]

Happy Halloween friends! To celebrate Her Side Project style, I rounded up a “gothic vampira princess” and her little pirate sidekick to make one spooktacular photo shoot. Can trick-or-treating get any cuter? I don’t think so! Bonus: this house is for sale! All interested parties, click here. Happy Halloween!
Sam & Adan: l’amour

When she stepped out of the car on the day of the photo shoot I was immediately taken back to the 9th grade. Madame Dutarte’s French class. Note passing. Test taking. Talking when we weren’t supposed to be. Making plans for the upcoming school dance. True friendship. Only now, my friend Samantha is not 14, [...]

I attended the wedding as my friend Vickie’s guest, but other than her I didn’t know a soul in the room. I sat across from a nice couple at the reception. I didn’t know them, they didn’t know me, but we talked anyway. I admired their friendship and relationship. They seemed like such a perfect [...]

So thankful for this pretty view when I step outside my door each morning. Crepe Myrtle, you are by far my favorite kind of tree.

That’s really the only way I can begin to describe Blakely, quite possibly the most gorgeous, happy baby I’ve ever been around. Her striking eyes, big smile and curious disposition make her as picturesque as the iconic Gerber baby. I’m so glad her mom, my colleague Janey, asked me to document this stage of their lives. [...]

She may live in Cincinnati, but Christine’s roots are in Austin, Texas. It was only fitting that our fair city and hometown serve as the inspiration for our best friend’s bridal shower. After months of planning and plotting, the big night finally arrived. From classic Texas decor to Austin inspired cookies (guitars, stars and bats anyone?) [...]
