We went through three rounds of emailing pictures of wardrobe options—all meticulously laid out on the bed for review—before nailing this festive and striking ensemble. (What great shoes!!) With tunes streaming off their iPod the kids set off galloping into the yard and pathways with abandon, occasionally loving on mommy.
From wild-eyed to docile (she), and from delight to angst (he), I managed to capture a large breadth of personality. And I’ll never forget this sweet boy removing one shoe with great resolve and sprinting around with one bare foot for an entire hour.
This couple got married at the French Legation and were excited to return years later with their little girl. There was all kinds of construction going on so my hands are raw from removing barricades and signs from the images and recreating part of the beautiful porch…apparently the oldest structure in Austin.
What a cool family. You can see how much they love being together. They are exploding with color, kindness, and good energy. We hung out at Zilker park and I chased them around as they climbed on the rocks and trees, danced, ran races, wrestled, and hugged.
These twins could take on the world. But they could also land on the cover of Vogue (Kid Vogue?). They ebb and flow so peacefully and organically like waves. So I’m sure that they would concoct the perfect plan to escape from even the most cunning witch—perhaps by reading eachother’s minds—and would execute it with seamless teamwork.
Action on Beach Haven, a gorgeous little sliver of sand off the Jersey Coast massaged by warm rolling waves. You could rise and fall with the surf all day long. An extended family is enjoying a summer reunion—mine!
Okay, I admit it. My son popped on a dress, to be silly, and joined the photo session. The son of a photographer hides when the camera is pointed at him and only wants to be photographed if someone else is getting all the attention…and his good-natured, astoundingly beautiful friend, was happy to share the fame.
There was so much love in the room I was breathing it in. These sisters really dote on each other and the kisses were flying left and right. And mama did an amazing job of passing down the beauty gene…
These kids arrived at the park and promptly said, ” I want to go home!” It was cooooold, but they were such good sports. They managed to have some fun, pose, play and show me their great personalities, and I was rewarded with great photos.
