Shelby Rocked It!

My latest senior session came to me all the way from Missouri! Can you believe that? Word travels fast around these United States about how fun Brandi Nellis Photography Senior Sessions are so you better book yours today so you too can be in the here and NOW! We bee bopped all over Austin, TX finding the coolest spots for this gal and she rocked her photos! It was so much fun hanging with her and her mom (who is an absolute hoot) that we had to put Mama in some of the photos too for good measure. Shelby is going places after high school. She has big plans to go on to college and wants to be an anesthesiologist when she grows up. You go girl. Dream big! With out further ado...here's SHELBY!!!!!!!!!!!

Out of The Office

One last summer trip to visit my dad in Missouri. I'll be out of the office from Tuesday, July 24-29th returning to work on MOnday, July 30th. Please leave me a message and I'll be in touch when I return. Here's just another jam session on the Nellis' roadtrips. Stay tuned maybe there'll be some new jams from this trip! I'm going back to my hillbilly roots with a little "Elvira!" Bet you all didn't know I could sing so pretty. :)

Bahamas!!!

Here's a few photos of day one from our trip to the Bahamas. Once we arrived and ate breakfast (food first!), we hopped in our little boat and went to go see these swimming pigs on Big Major Cay that I'd read about. It was quite an adventure to say the least. When the piggies hear your boat pulling up close to the beach they start swimming out to your boat to see what you've got to eat. They are grunting and sniffing and making all sorts of noises. It was quite intimidating on that first day. I had to yell at LeRoy to, "Back the boat up! Back the boat up!" One piggie was trying to climb into our boat.

One Summer Day...

the "C" family played with a bundle of balloons, ran with the balloons, tangled up the balloons, fought over the balloons, looked up at the balloons and laughed about the balloons. It was another beautiful, HOT summer day in Austin and I had the cutest family who were real troopers in the heat. We met early but that just doesn't matter here. It's 95 degrees by 9am! We made the best of it and their photos turned out so cute.

The Artist Within Video

More from the "Sweet 16!"

I know I posted the awesome video of the party but here's some of the photographic shots, too. Would they not make THE cutest girl country band EVER???!!!

Sweetest Sweet 16 Party Ever!

A few weeks ago, I had the real pleasure of photographing Britley's "Sweet 16" birthday party out at Mandola's Winery. The girls looked so amazingly cute in their flowery sundresses and their Texas cowgirl boots that as a photographer I was in complete heaven! I really don't know what could be any cuter than this. This shoot got me thinking about my "Sweet 16" party that I had and how different things are now. What did you do for your 16th birthday? You've got to watch the video and see the girls in their full modeling mode. They were alot of fun to work with!
