ATX Lifestyle Family Shoot | Circle C Park | The Batchelors

Man oh man. Someone please stop time. I have photographed these kiddos since they were in preschool and now the eldest son Noah is graduating from high school. I'm just in disbelief. This little walk down memory lane made me dig through their old files to see one of the previous family shoots when the kids were smaller. I found this one from 2014. Look how little they were?!

I feel like maybe I should've used Cher's song "If I could turn back time" in their music video. Oops. Now we're all going to have that song stuck in our heads for the rest of the day! I love this family and was happy to see them again and document this important time in Noah's life. I can't wait to see what his future holds. Grab your diet coke and cheetos and kick back and enjoy the Batchelor's video.

ATX Lifestyle Family Shoot | Butler Park | The Wasserburgers

After living next door to the Wasserburgers for many years (except last year when their house got struck by lightning and caught fire and they had to move out for a year), I finally got the opportunity to photograph them! Yay! This was a great dual purpose shoot where we were able to get some great family photos and conquer Wes' senior photos all in one! You can't beat that! And, I'm so glad they were able to move back in to their old but new house a few months ago b/c it was dark and lonely with out them. Grab your milk and cookies and kick back and enjoy their video.

ATX Senior 2021 | Aden | Regents High School

Regents High School is representing these days. These guys are showing up for their senior shoots with their best attitudes and best outfits and owning their photo shoot. Aden did not disappoint either. He rolled in with his summer bleached blonde hair, textured blue blazer and sneakers on ready to go. I love that when he saw the "Electric Avenue" road sign that was a must have shot for him. We stopped traffic (jk) while he walked across the road with his blazer thrown over his shoulder and looked off in the distance. He's got it going on and I can't wait to see what his future holds. Just like the song says, "I got all I need in a world of doubt/ We got our champagne dreams in an endless drought/ We are the kings and queens seeking our aces out/ We got all we need, no new friends now". It may be a little early but grab your glass of chardonnay and a donut, sit back, turn the music up and enjoy Aden's video.

ATX Senior 2021 Video | Luke | Regents High School

Oh my gosh! I am LOVING my senior guys this year! They are steppin' up to the plate and owning their photo shoots. I had SO much fun photographing Luke! He showed up to this shoot and was all in. I give him a 100 % on participation. Sometimes when I recommend the guys do something, they give me a flat out "no, I'm not doing that" but not Luke. He just would laugh a little bit like I was crazy but he did everything I suggested. They're all bringin' it too with their own unique clothing styles and it makes the photos more special to them when they're wearing what they want to wear and not what mom wants them to wear. Luke's mom wasn't crazy about his hair for the shoot but I had Luke's back on this one...I LOVE his hair and the wings that come with it. :) He looks like he could be a clothing model to me...don't ya think? Or, I guess even a hair model! He's got big things happening in his future with his senior year here and graduation upon him. Who knows what the future holds. I thought the lyrics were perfect for him since he's got "Something Big" in his near future. Grab your pumpkin spice coffee and muffin and kick back and watch Luke own his senior shoot.

ATX Senior 2021 Video | Lance & Skilo | Westlake High School

Photographed Lance and Skilo (his dog) for their senior shoot at Butler Park. They're graduating from Westlake and Lance will be going on to Texas A & M for college where as Skilo is going to take a gap year and hang in Austin with the fam. :) It was a beauuuuuutiful day down at Butler Park...a tad windy but Lance just cut his mullet off so we didn't have to worry about his hair getting messed up! Butler Park has some major construction going on but looks like they're getting close to being finished. The new additions look pretty cool, too. Can't wait to check it all out once it's finished. It won't be long and Lance will be counting stars looking towards his future! Kick back and relax and check his video out.

I've got some beach themed portable battery chargers in my Fine Art America Shop and these make a great gift for guys and girls. Everyone needs to have a back up battery charger especially if your phone is 2 years old like mine and doesn't hold a charge like it used to. Here's a few fun ones!

ATX Lifestyle Family Shoot | Seaholm | The Ferraras

I met Dr. Mai about 5 years ago when she called me and was interested in finding a photographer to photograph her orthodontic client's new smiles once they got their braces off. We met and hit it off immediately and worked together for about 4 years or so. At that time, I also started photographing her family photos, too. Since I've known her, it's always been her and her two little boys. She lost her husband unexpectantly when she was pregnant with their second son and has raised them AND ran a successful orthodontist business for many years solo. I think that's why we hit it off immediately because we're both single mom's of boys and we're just trying to raise and love them right and sometimes...just sometimes... that's hard to do alone and ALOT to do alone. Can I get an AMEN? Well, she retired about a year ago from her practice so she could focus her time on her boys and be there for them all the time. Why am I telling you all this? I'm telling you all this because I admire her for her courage and strength AND that I also found this amazing song called "Hold on Tight" while I was editing their photos and these words just moved me so much that I decided to put their photos to it. It says... When the rain come
And the sky's falling down
In your darkest hour
When there's no one around
It won't be long
Keep your head strong
Hold on tight to me
Hold on tight, hold on
When you feel like crying
Go on, let it out
Just remember
The sun is shining behind the clouds
It won't be long
'Til your pain's gone
So hold on tight to me
Hold on tight, hold on

I think these lyrics probably ring true for alot of people especially these days living through a pandemic. Personally, I thought about me and my son and all the ups and downs that we've lived through together when I listened to the words and I'm sure others will find the lyrics relateable to whatever they're going through, too. But, in this special instance today I found these lyrics to be perfect for this Mama and her boys. With all the photos of the 3 of them holding each other tight, this little family is going to be alright. :) Turn it up.
