It was such a big hit for the Class of 2011 that I'm doing it again for the Class of 2012. Pinkle Toes Photography is once again looking for positive, outgoing, and energetic
high school juniors who will be graduating from any high school in the
Austin area in 2012 (Westlake, Cedar Park, Leander, Lake Travis, Round
Rock, Pflugerville, Georgetown, etc). This is your chance to have your
senior portraits taken for FREE and earn unique photo rewards! Signed
model release will be required. The process is very selective and we
will only choose one senior model per high school. If you're interested
in finding out more, please fill out this form. Only applications via this form will be considered. Deadline to apply is March 31, 2011.
Are you in the graduating Class of 2011 and still haven't had your senior pictures taken? It's not too late to book an appointment for your own pictures! Contact me for session information.
And be sure to check out the updated senior portraits gallery for more examples of senior sessions.

Let's kick off 2011 the best way I can imagine with a recap of 2010 and determining our 2nd Annual Pinkle's Pic of the Year Winner! Each month in 2010, I selected an image (or images) that moved me, but now (as before) it's YOUR job as the Pinkle Toes Blogstalkers to decide
which of these was the best image of 2010.
M'kay, let's vote! You can click on the images in the poll to view larger:

on a Premium session in 2011. Two runners-up will each receive
a $100 gift card and the Grand Prize winner gets to choose a 3rd

The fine print:
- Voting will run January 1st-31st (ending at midnight central time)
- Voting is monitored by IP address, so no multiple voting.
- Results will not be shown, but I will announce winners on the blog Tuesday, Feb 1st.
- I reserve the right to disqualify entries or terminate/modify the contest if necessary.
- No purchase necessary to win.
Just like last year, I have absolutely NO clue who is going to take this prize. I'm just as excited as these families are to find out what will happen. (Did you know we had more than 1,400 votes last year??? Craziness!)
And of course, I can't start a new year without taking a look back at all of the amazing people I've had the fortune of working with last year. I love making this slideshow every year...I love remembering each and every session. Be warned, though, this slideshow had to go pretty fast so I could fit all of the images in. Be sure to watch because it's full of my favs from the year and many, many images that I haven't even blogged yet:
I've said it many times before, but thank you...a million thank you's to all of my clients. I truly feel blessed to have met each of you. Thank you for inviting me into your homes, to the births of your children, to glimpse into your lives and for trusting me to capture what makes your family so special and beautiful.
Much love,
Michele
We need even more newborn models to be on call for our Feb professional photographer workshops (held in the Pinkle Toes studio in Austin, TX). If your due date falls between Jan 20th-Feb 20th, we'd love to put you on our call list. If you want to be on call, please fill out THIS FORM. Only submissions via this form will be accepted (not phone calls, not e-mails, not comments, not facebook). If you've already submitted this form for the first round, there's no need to send again.
Newborn models (and their mommies and daddies if possible), must be available in the afternoon on at least one of these dates:
Signed model release is required. If selected, models will receive several images from their session (digital files) as compensation for their participation. This is an amazing opportunity to have your newborn portraits done by professional photographers!
- Thu Feb 10th

Wanna see more of one of the MOST adorable newborn babies I've ever had the pleasure of working with? Okay. You twisted my arm...
