Car keys and babies: Austin Family Photographer

It was a beautiful foggy morning when I set out for this gorgeous family's shoot. As we walked around taking pictures, one little boy kept rejecting the toys that were meant to entertain him. I thought for a minute about the biggest bribe I give my own son when we are outside, and then it hit me - I just had to offer up my car key for play. Needless to say, we had a very happy kid for the rest for this shoot, and my key is none the worse for the wear!

Matt and Myla: San Francisco Wedding Photographer

I never imagined I would be doing wedding photography in California, but when my friend Myla wrote to say she was getting married in the Golden Gate Park and asked if I would be her wedding photographer, it took me only the time to check my calendar to know that I would say yes.

Matt and Myla are a super fun couple and we started the day with bridal portraits around the city, after which the ceremony took place at the Fuschia gardens of the GG Park. The evening wrapped up with dinner at a restaurant right next door. Thank you for sharing your special day with me, M&M, and I wish you a lifetime of happiness!

Adi's family: Austin Family Photographer

A family mini-shoot in Zilker - I especially love the black and white of mom and son sharing a little giggle together.

Jessica M: Austin Bridal Fashion photography

With the help of a fabulous team in San Antonio, I photographed Jessica in a fashion bridal as well as romantic fashion look.
First off, the bridal look.






The second look was fashioned out of a vintage dress, to which we added embellishments and a peacock hair accessory.

Ari's family photos

Family photography always packs the unexpected. In this case, the little boy fell asleep halfway through the shoot while we were changing locations. So we all took a snack break before resuming work and waking up the tiny champ!

Boudoir Party

I recently photographed a boudoir party, and am excited to share these images! Despite the typical event setting where we were short on space and time, we all had a blast. I'm grateful to the clients featured here for giving me their consent to publish these images on the blog. A lot of times I get asked if my real world candidates can look as beautiful as my models, and I want to share this post to to say - of course!

Lighting workshop

Images I took at the Maria Bernal complete studio lighting workshop. Thanks to model Julie for being so easy to work with!

Sabrina

Sabrina and I got together mainly to do the last part of the shoot (in the creek), but she had so many fun outfits to choose from that we blazed through 4 dresses in the shoot!
