Here is what September and October are looking like for portrait sessions. Grey circle = available. Yellow circle = mini-session.
Portrait Sessions are beginning at about 5:30/6:00 unless you have something special in mind.
As usual, shoot me an email to get details and get on the calendar.  There may also be two Saturday spots available (1 in September and 1 in October) if you reeeaaally need a weekend.  I can’t guarantee it at this point, but if you email me early enough, I can see what I can do.

UPDATES: September 8th and 14th are now booked.
UPDATES: October 26th is now booked. THREE of the FOUR slots for minis now booked.

Also, I updated my Christmas page (click above or HERE).  I’ll continue to update it, but I wanted to give you card lovers an early peek at the cards I am offering this year.

Right on time. A 2 a.m. blog post. But it feels a bit incomplete without any words.

No, I don’t always get the chance to write.

But it always is my intention.

It is also always my intention not to blog anything that I’m going to read later with any regret. Late night delusion will do that to you. Which is why so often, there are not enough words on my blog posts.

Today though, I have to write a little because I have to give credit to these two. I had the opportunity to photograph them in Austin this month but I had no idea when I agreed to do it that it would be as hot and humid as it was. I don’t do humid and wow… the humidity that day was unbelievable. My couple came prepared, however, with small towels to literally wipe sweat beads between takes. I seriously looked like I had just stepped out of the shower and later joked that if they looked to wet in the images, we would just have to pretend that the shoot took place pool-side. But seriously, despite all that, these two didn’t quit, complain, show concern or disappointment. In fact, we really had a lot of fun. I even had the opportunity to have some vegetarian pizza and just hang out with some amazing people afterward. It left me wondering how I had even ended up there.
Having pizza.
Shooting a great couple.
In Austin.

I’m back from vacation and I’m very busy catching up on things that tend to pile up quickly when you leave. I have the fortunate problem of having a lot to work on but being so excited to work on it all. It’s just a matter of hours in the day. Couldn’t we all use just a few more? And where did the summer go anyway? I’ve already started booking for the Christmas portrait season and October looks like it will fill up before September starts. So if you want to get on the calendar, I recommend you shoot me as email as soon as possible.

Now…onto the images. These two basically left the entire session up to me and were just so open and fun. I can’t wait to shoot their wedding.

And Pray…And Hope…  you get to celebrate…life.

Here are some images from the Make-A-Wish party which marked a new chapter for Natalia.  A chapter which is going to be long, healthy, and cancer free forever.

No words at almost 4 a.m.
Just love.
