The potato paper feels like butter!

ATX Lifestyle Family Photo Shoot | The East Side | The Zellners

The Zellners showed up ready for their shoot and wanted something a lil' bit urban. We meandered over to the East Side in Austin and found some sweet spots to do just that. I love how we found some pops of red to accentuate their wine colored outfits and also love how downtown looks from this side of the tracks. The girls gave me some good stuff to work with especially when Kaitlyn started showing us her new "talent" aka twerking that she learned at college. That's what you learn at TX Tech! LOL! It made for some good laughing shots which is also a great stress reliever during a photo shoot. We can never have enough laughter. The Zellners love a holiday and love to decorate so I thought this year I would treat them to a special Christmas video for their family shots. Grab your mocktail and some snacky poos and kick back and enjoy the Zellners rocking the east side of ATX.

ATX Lifestyle Sibling Shoot | Downtown Austin | Bali & Dylan

I have been photographing these two literally since birth. Gosh, I feel old. They have both been absolute lookers since birth. We've created some really great photos over the years of these two. I mean...come on! Just look at them!
Now, here they are 16 & 14 years old. I love that their mom has gotten these t-shirts with their age on them for several years now. It's great fun for the Christmas card or letting the elderly people in your family know how old the kids are now. I don't know about you but I always hold kids WAY younger than what they really are and the grandparents will forever treat them like their still itty bitty even when they're pushing adulthood! LOL! We met up in downtown Austin and socially distanced ourselves and I let Mama fix and fluff the kids to her heart's content. :) It was pretty windy that day so we had some serious hair action blowing around so Keili was a great help to keep the kids put together. Grab your glass of vino and a triscuit or two and sit back, relax and turn the music up because I love this song, too. One day the siblings will get along even better and they'll realize these are the Glory Days.

ATX Lifestyle Family Shoot | Butler Park | The Fletchers

Oh, how I love this family! Life with boys is always an adventure and these two little guys are just the bomb diggety! They are two little balls of spitfire and they kept me laughing through the entire photo shoot! These are the moments that we need to remember. Take all those snuggles and smooches and sweet looks of admiration now and swish those around and savor every morsel because in a blink of an eye they'll grow up on you. Grab your glass of rose and some nibbles and kick back and enjoy. You don't want to miss the ending...it's classic. ;P

ATX Lifestyle Photographer | Violet Crown Trail | The Harrimans

So, the couch became a "thing" in this shoot. As I was leaving the Harriman's house a few days before the shoot, I saw the white settee and mentioned that this would be cute to use in the shoot. Marion loved the idea and Josh wasn't quite as keen on the idea b/c he didn't want to get hot and sweaty the day of the shoot lugging it into the forest. I get it, right. Even in November we're pushing mid 80's in Texas. But of course Marion won out and a few hours before the shoot Josh and Ronan carried the couch down the Violet Crown Trail at least 1/4 mile if not more and hid the couch behind a huge thick shrub. Once the shoot started and we were venturing down the trail we all joked that wouldn't it be funny if we walked up and there were some homeless people lounging on the couch in the middle of nowhere smoking some cigarettes, chatting on their phones and listening to some tunes. I mean the thought of it just got me so tickled. However, when we arrived the couch was still hidden behind the bush and all was fine. I love this family so much and have known them now for several years because our sons are close friends. Just as I thought... they were super fun to photograph and I'm glad that I finally had the opportunity to do so. So, grab your gin and tonic and some triscuits and kick back and enjoy the Harrimans and their white couch. :)

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.
