Oh what fun I had this evening with Monica and Blake. They were so easy to photograph; one because she is beautiful and he is handsome and two because they were willing to do anything and go anywhere. I love the end results.
Nathanael was determined to be awake for his entire photo session…now keep in mind he’s not even 2 weeks old yet! But look at the beautiful pictures we got of this very special Christmas present.
It’s been raining and cold here in Austin everyday! However, just the other day it finally cleared up for a few hours and once again I was able to enjoy my “Capitol View” from my office window. And it was just in time to try out a just received wide angle lense. Only problem, couldn’t get hold of my contact on Congress Avenue to go take the shot I want of our building with the Capitol. Hopefully soon. But here is what I got from my window.
After months of rehearsing and endless hours choreographing, week one of the Singing Christmas Tree is behind us. I for one and my family are breathing a sigh of relief. The entire week one production was a joy to be a part of and the music was beautiful. Here are just a few pictures which John took from the balcony. Rebekah is in the tree (right side – fourth row up) and Morgan and I are on stage.
Friday night we attended a much anticipated holiday program for Emily’s middle school. At the end of Emily’s fifth grade year, she informed us that she wanted to be in the band. So we agreed and she decided to play the flute. At the first recital we were a bit anxious and wondered if she would ever be good enough to make the Wind Ensemble. Well she did make the ensemble after just one year of being in band! So we were really excited about this year’s holiday program. She was given one of the prized dresses to wear, which she was really excited about. She’s so tiny, she’s hard to see, but she’s there on the right, second row.
Saturday we were supposed to have beautiful weather…yeah right! It turned out to be foggy, dreary and it rained all day. This made it impossible to keep some scheduled outdoor sessions, but the Seibels had to get their pictures taken because Kristin’s brother was visiting and his family was heading back to Arkansas the next day. So we used their front living room for the session and the pictures turned out great! Sometimes challenges and overcoming them produces the best results.
Thanks for letting me meet your beautiful family!
We’ve been busy putting together samples for you to choose from following your holiday family sessions. These are by no means the only choices, the possibilities are endless! But here are some previews…
I completed Janine and Thomas’ session photos and topped it off with this special layout for Nate’s nursery. Can’t wait to see it hung up.
Finished a custom engagement album for George & Jessica, the super fun couple that we did an engagement session for recently.
Check it out!
