Back to one of our favorite locations: Mayfield Park & Preserve, we met the Ortiz family. It was a very hot day, but we plowed through and got some smiles, anyway!

Riley’s parents were all set for her to be a boy! They just “knew”. They’ve actually had to adjust to a little pink bundle of joy.

Oh, and at this age, she prefers Mom’s alma mater, Florida, over Dad’s, Louisiana State. Don’t worry, it won’t be too long before she’s a Daddy’s Girl!

We LOVE these Womb-to-Bloom sessions. It’s such a joy to get to see all the fun stages of the first year of life. On the day we went to see Ethan, he was cutting his first tooth! awwwww..

Dee has been part of Austin’s comedy scene for a while, but a fresh and updated look was in order. We wandered downtown for a true photowalk and found some hip nooks and crannies….and we laughed our tails off! She is one FUNNY gal!

Cari and Luke have a great chemistry. A while back, they moved from Austin—her first love—to Georgetown, Texas. They have a lovely home in a great neighborhood with a big yard for entertaining friends and watching over kiddos. I don’t think these images even begin to express the visible love they have for one another…unless of course, it’s football season and then his LSU Tigers and her Florida Gators snarl and hiss!

P.S. Can you believe this Miami Hurricane was there to capture any baby Gator garb??!?! ;)

The Youngs have a gorgeous new slate/stone deck and waterfall, so family portraits there were a no-brainer!

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.

Sarah simply exudes sweetness, so working with her is already a real pleasure and joy! We did a bit of sun-dodging and fought a little haze on her portrait day, but it was fun to chat while we waited for the return of a cloud or other good light.

Gena did a bunch of research for her family portraits location, but ultimately selected one of our favorites: Mayfield Park and the grounds near Laguna Gloria.

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 Reicholds have a lovely front lawn and sweet canine members of their family. They were a perfect fit for a truly on-location portrait session!

Courtney wanted to make sure that her youngest child didn’t get slighted when it comes to family portraits. So, we met at their home where, after grabbing a few shots of all three kids, we worked with Fiona through several outfit changes. They have a lovely new home with plenty of nooks and crannies for great settings.
