Spring, TX High School Senior Shoot | Brendan | Klein Collins High School

Every once in awhile, I get asked to travel for photography. I absolutely love to! In this case, it happens to be one of my best friends that I grew up with back in Missouri and we've known each other since we were 4 years old! Her family lives in Spring now so it's great that we're so close and can pop over in a few hours and see each other. Stephanie's son, Brendan is graduating from Klein Collins and is headed to Texas A & M in the fall for college. He's following in his sister's footsteps and keeping Aggies in the family. I roadtripped over on St. Patty's Day weekend and that drive on 290 was actually amazing (for once) with all the wildflowers and fields of bluebonnets along the roadside. Unfortunately, I didn't stop for the wildflowers since I was hustling to get to Spring so we could knock out Brendan's senior photos that day. For his shoot, we ended up going to a near by park that is really pretty with lots of ducks, trees and a few ponds. Afterwards, we swung by his high school to get a few shots there. The front of his high school totally reminds me of one that you'd see in a teenie bopper movie. To wrap up the shoot, we had Brendan do a farewell to high school jump off the ledge in front of his high school...ya know to show his enthusiasm about graduating...you'll have to watch the video until the end to see what sort of air that boy caught! Grab a hot tea and ginger snaps and kick back and take in Brendan's shoot. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song.

ATX High School Senior Shoot | Emma | Bowie High School

Oh my goodness! Emma was down for an adventure for her senior shoot! We faired the CRAZY INSANE SXSW and spring break crowds on South Congress and conquered her senior shoot with hundreds of visitors and tourists around. What a trooper she was. Emma owned it, had fun and her confidence shines through on these photos. And, I have to say that people were really good about waiting for us to finish a shot if we were taking over the sidewalk or shooting in the street. The great thing was there was this vibrant energy on the street so I think it added a dash of zing to the experience. Emma loves color and wanted that Austin vibe that South Congress has to offer. We struck gold when @Home Slice actually had their red photo booth VW bus down there and the guy working the booth allowed us to have some fun with it as a prop. Thank you Home Slice! Emma brought these lime green heels that were her pop of color with her jeans and white shirt and they went perfectly with the giant sunglasses that rest towards the south end of South Congress. Love how playful these shots turned out! Her fall plans include staying in the city and attending UT this fall. Grab a bubbly diet Coke and a slice of Pizza (having a total craving now since I've been talking about Home Slice) and kick back and watch Emma's journey down SOCO.

ATX High School Senior Shoot 2023 | Madeline | Bowie High School

I met Madeline and her family in downtown Austin at the start of SXSW in hopes that it wouldn't be too crazy in the location that we were shooting her senior photos. We lucked out with absolutely gorgeous weather and only a handful of people at the park where we met. I loved that the family all showed up in their various Texas college t-shirts and we grabbed a few shots of the family first. Mom went to University of Texas, Dad went to Stephen F. Austin, Brother currently goes to TX State and Madeline is heading to Texas A & M! Once we finished a few shots of the family we concentrated on Madeline and moved about the park using some great textures and colors. Along with her college t-shirt she brought a cute and feminine white dress and a sporty black dress with her sneakers to change into. They were perfect with the park's greenery, concrete stairs and city backgrounds. Madeline knocked it out of the park (no pun intended) during her photoshoot and we captured some really beautiful images of her. Grab your cup of hot tea and a yummy snack and kick back and watch her sweet video. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song.

High School Senior Shoot 2023 | Drue | Bowie High School

Downtown Austin was a buzz as everyone prepared for SXSW but that didn't stop us from photographing Drue's senior photos. We managed to find an empty alley way and utilized the old brick walls to give that masculine, urban look. Then, we wandered around Congress Avenue utilizing some of Austin's best signs at the State Theater and Paramount. With all the activity happening in the background, it really makes Drue's photos come alive. We finished off the shoot with a few snap shots in the middle of Congress Avenue taking advantage of the Capitol in the background. Grab yourself a latte and yummy bagel and kick back and enjoy Drue's video.

High School Senior 2023 Shoot | Avery | Bowie High School Austin,TX

We had the most beautiful spring day in Austin, TX on the day we photographed Avery. It just doesn't get any better than that when the sun is shining, not a cloud in the sky, the temperature was perfect and the wind was minimal. Avery brought the cutest outfits but she had one dress that was especially made for her by her best friend and that was the white dress with the big bow. How special is that? She looked absolutely gorgeous in it. She's headed to Texas A&M this fall and brought her acceptance sign to use in a few photos. These shots always make a fun addition to use on the senior graduation cards. Of course, the blue flowy dress shots of her being playful are some of my favorite shots. Which shots are your favorite? Grab your coffee and kick back and take a look at Avery's video.

High School Senior Shoot | ASA | Regents High School

I have been photographing Asa since he was just a tiny nugget in preschool at Noah's Ark Mom's Day Out Program. I'm still a bit in shock that he could even be a senior in high school right now. How can this be and where oh where has the time gone? I couldn't even believe it when his mom reached out and said we needed to do Asa's senior photos soon. Asa showed up dressed in his sleek, brown suit accented with a purple tie and hankie and I was 100% excited to get these photos done when I saw his outfit. He knocked it out of the ball park especially on the bridge when he put his shades on...it was like the inner supermodel came out. The icing on the cake was when we attempted to take a few photos in Trader Joe's and immediately got in trouble by the manager. We're such rebels. We managed to get a few artsy shots in the store which is exactly what Asa wanted. Grab a fizzy drink and a cookie and kick back and watch Asa's video.

Lifestyle Family Shoot | The Glass Family | Sekrit Theater

I had a super fun shoot with the Glass family right before Christmas. It was their first professional photo shoot and it was a surprise family present from Gabi (mom). It was most important to her that the girls have a fun experience and wanted zero stress. We booked our date @Sekrit Theater and prayed for good weather in mid-December! Not only did we have a little fun with dad dancing with his girls and dipping his wife with his daughters giggling as they watched their parents, we had karate kicks, pirouttes and pushing dad on a bike but we also had a visit from the Sekrit Theater CAT who took a big liking to the girls! This kitty cat could NOT get enough of these girls. She kept appearing in all of our photos as we moved around the property. The family loved it and continued to embrace the experience and give kitty lots of love. It was a Lovely Day. Grab a peppermint mocha and a honey bun and kick back and enjoy the Glass family music video.
