If this doesn't get you into the holiday spirit, then I *know* this will...
Had a lovely time with this family this morning! I didn't want to leave...they had Christmas carols going and stunning holiday decorations (mom did it all herself!) and that roaring fire...it was perfect! And, it also makes my heart leap whenever I see things like this in the house:
It's even sitting in the very spot where we took that picture!
Evidently, this holiday season, I'm all about the sparkles. (Did you see my last THREE posts, LOL???) Check out my article today on the Creative Mama to see how to make your own sparkly ornaments!
I'd say this constitutes sparkly ;-). A wonderful, magical, "sparkly" senior portrait session this morning in wonderful, magical, "sparkly" Austin, TX.
Wow. I'm a little behind on this, huh? I have to say I had a tough time choosing because there have been so many amazing families this fall with some really unique images. I figure that since I'm so late in posting this, I could pick more than one for each month. [What is Pinkle's Pic of the Month?]
So, here are the winners for October:
And then, here are the winners for November:

We've got one more round of winners to come at the end of December and then in January, it's voting time again! I can't wait to see what happens this year!
Congratulations to all of the finalists!

Fall always has been and always will be my most favorite time of the year. Driving home from my session tonight, there was the most incredible purple and gold and auburn sunset (too bad the session was over) and I thought before we get swept away into the winter holiday season, perhaps we could appreciate the beauty of fall for a second. I decided to put together a collection of my favorite images from this fall so that maybe when we're all sweltering in the summer next year, we can look back here and feel fresh, and crisp, and warm, and cool, and fuzzy, and hopeful, and thankful all over again...
