ATX Family Shoot | The Ferraras

We definitely rolled with the punches on this photo shoot. This particular late October Saturday morning we were blessed with a heat wave and the highest humidity you can imagine. Dr. Mai and her boys showed up dressed for fall photos and everyone was uncomfortable in their long sleeves with the warmth. We finally ducked into La Patisserie for some air conditioning and a sweet treat to try and energize the boys on this early Saturday morn. We took advantage of the yummy treats and cute cafe and snapped a few photos while they enjoyed their macarons. The boys were more energized after their cookies and we managed to squeek out a few more photos around South First Street before the drizzle started. Grab yourself a hot tea and cookie and kick back and watch their cute family video. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song.

ATX High School Senior Shoot | Jordan | Bowie High School

The senior shoots are in full swing right now and I'm loving it! Jordan rolled into his senior shoot with a big grin on his face and was ready to be photographed. He travelled to Japan this past summer with his brother for an extensive amount of time and brought his favorite shirt from Japan along to be photographed in. This is what I want all the senior guys to do! Can you guess which shirt it is? It's the black and white printed shirt. Love that print mixed with the brown cords and of course we had to take a few with the sunglasses, too. In years to come, when he looks back on these photos it will always be a reminder of travelling to Japan the summer before his senior year. Grab a snack and a drinky poo and kick back and watch Jordan's video. P.s. I don't own the rights to this song.

Aisley | High School Senior 2024 | Bowie High School

This is Aisley and she looks like a greek goddess in her senior photos. I think her Mama is going to need a box of tissues to watch her video. The mix between Aisley's beauty, the natural setting at Creekside mixed with this song is a trifecta. It's such an emotional ride as a parent to watch our baby birds prepare to fly the nest and move onto the next phase of their life so that's why commemorating their senior year is so important. Aisley was a natural in front of the camera and knows how to work her angles. She has one of the prettiest profiles that I've ever seen and I had so much fun photographing her. She's going to rise up and conquer what's ahead of her and I wish her the absolute best on the next part of her journey. Grab a cup of joe and kick back and enjoy Aisley's video. Don't forget the tissues. Sorry, Jules. :)

Hailey | High School Senior 2024 | Bowie High School

Meet beautiful Hailey. She showed up ready to do her senior photo shoot and is a natural in front of the camera. As I edited her photos, I realized that she reminds me of young Christie Brinkley. She brought the simple white dress, a bodysuit with the sage green skirt, swapped out the skirt for jeans and added her school jacket for a few shots. We thank Creekside for allowing us to use their gorgeous backyard area and make some memorable photographs for Hailey. Kick back, turn up the volume and enjoy Hailey video.

Texas A&M Senior Shoot | Riley | College Station, TX

Meet Riley! She's the best friend and sorority sister to Emily who is in the previous post. We had a double photo shoot day where I photographed both Riley and Emily seperately and together for a few shots. I'm going to guess that these two could also be "double trouble" when they're together. ;) What a couple of cuties! Riley arrived in her cute white dress for the Admin Building shoot then changed into an electric pink dress for the shots at the Bell Tower and wrapped up the fountain photos wearing her Aggie jersey, cut off shorts, white boots and cowgirl hat. We can't forget the HAAAAAAATTTT! I had so much fun photographing these two and am super excited to see what their future holds. I think the words of this song are perfect for a college graduate who is about to embark on a new journey...Live your life with arms wide open Today is where your book begins The rest is still unwritten. Grab your latte and biscotti and kick back and enjoy Riley's video. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song.

Texas A&M Senior Shoot | Emily | College Station, TX

A few weeks ago, I made another trip to College Station to photograph two A&M seniors, best friends and sorority sisters Emily and Riley. We had fun hitting all the traditional "hot spot" locations that the Aggie seniors go to for their photos. First stop, was the infamous Admin Building that you have to wait in line for your turn down one of the wings. Since this wasn't my first rodeo, I knew to have Letty (Emily's mom) stand in line for us to hold our spot. There's a process within a process...man, this school really does run deep with their traditions. :) Even though there were only about 6 people in front of us in the line, it took over an hour until it was our turn. In the meantime, I was able to photograph Emily and Riley all around the stairs and grassy areas while Letty made friends in line waiting. LOL! Second stop was the Bell Tower and the last stop was where they all get to cut loose and pop champagne in THE FOUNTAIN! These shots are SO fun and scream excited about graduation! Emily had to incorporate a few photos with her adorable dog, Bentley. He's just so cute with his A&M jersey and grad cap on that I can hardly stand it! Grap a Dos XX (or two...ahem Em I'm talking to you) and some nachos and kick back and watch Em's sweet video. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song. P.s.s. For those of you who might be worried, Bently the dog did NOT drink any beer!

Austin Lifestyle Senior 2023 Shoot | Lauren | Austin High School

Oh my goodness! We were a bit stressed about the weather before this shoot. I swear I'm a full time photographer and part time meterologist...see Mom I am using my Geography degree from college! My Gigi always wanted me to be a weather woman on TV. I could've given Ginger on GMA a run for her money. :) We had been in touch a few times prior to the shoot checking the hourly weather and praying that the rain would clear. Aaaaannnnddd, at 4pm that day it was still iffy but the rain chances were only 6% so I was feeling good about that! By 6pm, it was just gorgeous out and made for a beautiful sky for the shoot. Lauren wore some light blue shorts and a vibrant blue dress for a couple of her outfits and the blue just pops off of the green grass and trees. Lauren is wrapping up her time at Austin High and moving on to Texas A & M in the fall to study really hard stuff! Haha! Not only is she beautiful but she's super smart, too. Grab an iced tea and a brownie and kick back and enjoy her video. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song.
