When Melynda contacted us about her maternity/newborn portraits, we were thrilled when she upgraded to our Womb-to-Bloom package for Ethan. It’s been a real joy getting to see one of our littlest clients during all the milestones of this first year of development. Ethan was a real gem for all his sessions and has been so much fun to work with. So, a cake smash for his first birthday session was a must do. It’s pretty certain that the adults had more fun than Ethan, but he did love that “1″ made out of icing!

Hilary and Sol have some beautiful kiddos and a lovely greenbelt behind their home that is just perfect for portraits. It’s always easier with tiny ones if you don’t have to get them dressed and in the car.

Lakeway park is just gorgeous and was the perfect location for these sun-loving kids. We wandered out to the rocks along the water and back to the shore line where they even fed the ducks. What fun!

The Turpin family wanted lush grounds for the setting for their maternity/family portraits, and just love the landscaping at our state capitol building. The grounds are well cared for and make a great setting for family portraits with a Texas twist.

This little one gave us a real run for our money. Despite the very hot day, she was full of energy and wanted to run, Run, RUN. There isn’t much reasoning to be done with a 1 year old, so we just chased and played and had a fabulous time.

Toddler sessions are such fun. While Sheri and her family prepare for the arrival of the next addition to their family, they also wanted to capture this magical time with their firstborn.

What a fun session we had with this little fairy princess! A. was celebrating her 2-year birthday and wanted to mark the occasion with a cute pastel outfit and a yellow fairy princess costume. We had a ton of fun with the flowers in the garden at Mayfield Park in Austin.
