Since her newborn session and at 6 months she's had me wrapped around her adorably chubby little baby fingers. But I've become attached to her parents, too...
...and I thoroughly enjoyed exploring their property, where we decided to commemorate her 1 year birthday.
One year of motherhood. And fatherhood...
One full year as a family of three.
They have big plans for this place. Her daddy says he's going to build her a tree house right here.
They are a wonderfully connected couple.
We were packing up and heading to the car when I noticed this scene...
...and then we headed to the house for a few more...
The one at the top w/ her and her daddy...love (be sure to check out Blake's beautiful work.) I'd say parenthood looks good on them and they've done a wonderful job raising a joyful, charming baby girl.

They flew in from out of town. She said she loved Austin. She said she loved the Hotel San Jose. She said this was just to celebrate her birthday. She had style and grace and this classic, unassuming beauty. The connection between the two of them made me so excited to see their future together play out.
No, seriously...LOVED this session:
No, seriously...LOVED this session:
October is full,
November is almost, too,
Book your holiday session now,
Or you'll be blue.
We can hold it in July
Or August is neat.
For a full session those months,
You'll get a special treat.
Obviously I'm tired,
And my poetry is lame.
But without family pictures,
Your cards simply won't be the same.

Okay, enough of that. (I can't believe I went there.) All I wanted to say was this:November is almost, too,
Book your holiday session now,
Or you'll be blue.

Or August is neat.
For a full session those months,
You'll get a special treat.
Obviously I'm tired,
And my poetry is lame.

We all came together at one of my favorite parks to throw leaves, laugh, and enjoy the amazing fall air last holiday season (yes...I'm still about 10 posts out from blogging 2011 sessions ;-). Mom's eyes had me captivated, but the little ones...they definitely stole my heart. I know family sessions aren't always the easiest thing to get everyone together for (who am I kidding...it's got to be more difficult than childbirth), but as I'm reminded by my own children every day, you don't get this back...not one second of it.
There's not a single thing I didn't LOVE about working with these two. *Almost* makes me change my stance on not photographing weddings. Almost...
Would you believe those outdoor pics were taken off the highway by some plain ol' concrete blocks? Just goes to show that with the right light and the right subjects, anything can become beautiful!
FYI: Pinkle Toes will be closed 4/18-4/24. We will return calls/e-mails, etc. starting Monday, April 25th.
