Hello friends! I hope you all are staying warm on this chilly Austin morning. I thought it might be fitting to share another holiday session this morning given the drop in weather temps.

When you think of photographing an infant – let’s be honest – relaxed, calm, and natural are not the first things that come to mind. But every once in a while, the perfect little baby comes along and she’ll blow you away with her full cooperation, leaving you and your assistant gushing about her for days after.

Three years ago, I met Natalie and Brian, then social worker and medical student, while shooting their engagement photos. In addition to being a great-looking pair, they were unmistakably kind and modest. I really enjoyed getting to know them in the little time we got to spend together. We did a holiday maternity session / gender announcement the following year and  Liz was ever the stunning, glowing mama-t0-be. I knew she’d make an exceptionally lovely one.  I had the pleasure of photographing them again recently and they came back with the same pair of red shoes used last year for the reveal except this time the shoes  fit two dainty little feet!

Stay warm. Be sure to check back for more! xo
