So big! { Austin Baby Photographer }

This little cutie is turning one this weekend and we met at my favorite “farm” last week for his one year portraits! When his mama said that she was bringing a yellow shirt for him, I knew immediately I wanted to incorporate my new yellow vintage basket and lemons into his session! So fun! He demolished a cupcake at the end of his session in about 3 minutes flat!!:)Enjoy your sneak peeks, “L” family!

With his gorgeous mama:)

Heavenly { Austin Twin Newborn Photographer }

Heavenly! That’s the only word I can think of to describe this twin newborn session.:)From the amazing private exotic ranch that the session took place at (with free roaming family groups of rhinos, giraffes, gazelles, bunnies, and many more exotic animals… I can’t even begin to tell you how amazing this place was!) – to the adorable, beautiful, smiley, sleepy twin newborns I had the absolute privilege of photographing… just heavenly. Thank you for inviting me to spend a morning with your beautiful family!:)
