Valeria “Everything in nature bespeaks the mother. The sun is the mother of earth and gives it its nourishment of heart; it never leaves the universe at night until it has put the earth to sleep to the song of the sea and the hymn of birds and brooks. And this earth is the mother […]

Jolissa & Dom  Their engagement session was magical. Their love blew my mind! I truly believe in the magic of love and this beautiful couple exudes so much happiness, playfulness, support, and joy.

  The Goodwin Family  Effortless beauty and authentic joy is how I can best describe this beautiful family.    

This session is near and dear to my heart. When I first moved to Austin, I had the great privilege of befriending this remarkable woman and her beautiful four children. Gina is a single mom, entrepreneur, dear friend to many- she works hard in all areas of her life. These photographs celebrate her beauty as […]

Texas bluebonnets have long been a mixed bag for me. They are our state flower, super beautiful and vibrant AND only appear once a year. I’m not big on the super posed, prop ish and pinteresty photography aka chalkboards, balloons, matchy outfits, including, bluebonnet sessions etc.  And, yes, they have their place and can be appreciated.

I’m still trying to declutter my massive catalogue of photos I’ve taken and I stumbled upon some beautiful images of the kids. My favorite ones are the ones where they are in their essential flow of joy, silly, wild, goofy, quirky and boyness …         ,

  We are absolutely loving these days before spring arrives. Starting our mornings with cheerful eagerness to see cardinals and green buntings in our bird feeders, checking on our seed starters for any new signs of germination and growth, fresh tulips decorating the table…delicious rose hip tea with sweet little messages, and cozy blankets at […]

It’s true what they say, long are the days, short are the years…. I always wanted to homeschool my children. I fancied the idea. My friends called me crazy.  I imagined a blend of bird watching, reading, LOTS of art and music, dancing, baking, nature walks, snuggling, gardening, biking, hiking, trips to Target, and great […]

  It’s kind of amazing to live in a city that makes you feel giddy and excited like a tourist, even after four years. Admittedly, we don’t usually venture out and explore all the great things in our city because, hashtag life and whatnot. I’m certain there’s enough art and nifty spots in this town […]
