Petite { Austin Newborn Photographer }

I loved every minute of this newborn session – little miss “A” is so petite and sweet! She was awake for the first part of her session showing off her gorgeous big eyes but after a mid-session bottle, she was super sleepy for her individual newborn portraits! I have so many cute pictures of her, it was difficult narrowing down which ones to show for her sneak peek! Congratulations, “U” family – you have a beautiful family!!

Pink { Austin Child Photographer }

This sweet little girl was so adorable in her pink petti and cowgirl boots!!! Loved her 2 yr old shirt too – the entire outfit is a photographer’s dream!:)Add in a pink trike and you usually have a recipe for success! Right??? Well… the weather decided to take a turn for the worse and the morning of our session, it was about 55-60 degrees and w-i-n-d-y!!! Like troopers, we went ahead with the session close to downtown Austin on a Saturday morning, where there was NO parking, so we carried all of our props (trike, check. 2 pairs of boots, check. toddler, check. bag with clothing changes, check!) up and downhill on our way to the park. Sweet little “K” (yes, her name is on her shirt!) also had a burst eardrum 2 days prior (owie!) and on antibiotics. Add in the constant cold wind against her ears… well, she was a bit unhappy. Make that a lot unhappy! Sweet girl! So we are going to try her session again soon with hopefully happier endings. I wanted to share some of the sneak peeks I got last week until we meet again.:)

PS. Kudos to her big brother for being such a good sport during our session last week!:)

Rock On! { Austin Baby Photographer }

I instantly knew when I first laid eyes on little “C”, it was going to be an awesome session. He had on his shades, a rockin’ tie, cute denim Baby Guess jeans and was more than ready to perform for my camera! Turns out his daddy is a worship leader at a church in San Marcos, so this little guy was born to shine. The session got even sweeter when his daddy pulled out his guitar and started singing and playing songs for his son! I think the highlight of the session for little C was being allowed to “play” daddy’s guitar on the grass! He was so into it ~ barely even noticed me after the guitar came out!:)Definitely one of my all-time favorite sessions!! I hope you enjoy your sneak peeks, “B” family!:)

Sweetness { Austin Newborn Photographer }

Look at this adorable baby girl – she has the best hair and the sweetest smiles! All of her smiles she gave me were when she was in mommy and daddy’s arms. {{{ love }}} Her daddy is a firefighter and I was so happy we were able to get a portrait of his baby girl in his fire helmet! Enjoy your adorable sneak peeks, “W” family!!:)
