This sweet baby literally took my breath away. You may remember that her parents are quite classy themselves, so it's no surprise that she would be the perfect little lady. We listened to Frank Sinatra during her photo session and I hummed the tunes all the way home, the perfect soundtrack to her photos. She was so delicate and had this angelic glow about her.  Everything she did was "just so." She didn't make a peep the entire session. Sigh...it was lovely.

That's probably the first word that comes to mind when I think of this session. I wasn't quite sure how we were going to top their last session, but I think we managed to pull of something so different and so incredible for them...

Tracy (an amazing photographer!) really, really, really wanted to go to a carnival, so planned the session date around that. Well, unfortunately, we got a little caught up in the flowers and didn't quite get over to the carnival as early as we planned. It was pure AGONY standing in line to get in watching the sun steadily slip behind the horizon. We had to hoof it to get our images and the kids (bless their hearts) were so patient with us. In spite of the darkness, we found some really cool spots to work in and I love how they turned out! Tracy...I hope you do, too, and I can't wait to see what display you create with these!

This little guy was born into a colorful world and I love that his parents have made it so. This line from their client questionnaire before their session cracked me up: "He will love the color orange, puppies, Harry Potter, reading, Texas Longhorns, all sorts of music, football, and getting dirty (or those could just be things I like...)."

Their  maternity session before he was born was just as colorful and vibrant: 

What a fun, vibrant, energetic family! I very much look forward to seeing how their family grows and changes over the years!

First of all, I want to know who planned the weather out for this workshop? LOL. My word, it couldn't have been a more dreary, rainy couple of days, but fortunately for me, there was a wonderful group of women in attendance AND we had a SUPER cute baby boy to work with. 

Some behind the scenes pics (I always love these!):

And then I really lurve this snap from Bekah...

...mostly 'cuz I think the backlight makes me look skinny ;-)

By the way, we are *still* looking for a family in Austin that can do this for us on March 30th. We've received several applications, but we need options. You never know, you might get a free session from me! If you live in Austin and are expecting a baby within the next few weeks, PLEASE fill out this form.

I'll be back soon with images from the in-home session and I also can't wait to show you some pics that the attendees took (can't wait to brag on them and how well they did during some yucky, yucky weather ;-).

Things I want to remember about my boy before he grows into those puppy feet of his.
