HUGE 48-Hour Sale on Canvas Gallery Wraps!

HUGE Canvas Gallery Wrap Sale!  2 days only!  Available Nov. 29 & 30 to the first 10 people who email me with a purchase.  The perfect gift for yourself or a loved one this holiday season.  Canvas gallery wraps look great in any room in your home... from a living room to a playroom, or a master bedroom or child's room!

(The "link" I'm referring to in the image below is the page you're currently viewing.)


What is a canvas gallery wrap?  Your image is printed on beautiful gallery canvas (which gives it incredible texture) and is then stretched around a frame.  Such a cool and timeless way to display your favorite images!  No framing needed.  Our professional canvas gallery wraps have an enclosed back (see image below), sturdy interior, and come ready to hang, which makes them MUCH more sturdy and long-lasting than many wraps on the market that have a bare frame on the back and no interior structure to the canvas. They are sturdy, but light and very easy to hang with just one small nail. 

Details: 
  • For Miles of Smiles Photography clients / any image taken by Miles of Smiles Photography in the last 2 years.
  • Sale is on Thursday and Friday, Nov. 29 and 30 only and is limited to the first 10 clients who email me about a purchase.  To be fair to all clients, there are no exceptions to the sale dates.

The L Family {Austin Family Photographer}

This family was so much fun to work with! 

Working with Jack and Josie made me really look forward to the years to come with my little Miles and Avah.  Jack just adored his little sister, and she adored him right back.  Their sweet hugs and cuddles during the session were 100% genuine, and it was so sweet to watch.  At one point, I even had to ask their parents, "Is this for real?"  And they assured me it was.  I can't believe this will be my kiddos in five years or so. 

Such a sweet family, and so much love between each of them.  It was a pleasure getting to serve them and capture such sweet moments in their family's life.  As these kids' mom and I sat down at the ordering session and I started the slideshow of images for her, she kept saying, "I'm so glad we did this!"  And, "You captured exactly who she is!"  That, my friends, is the best feedback a photographer gal like me could ask for.  I love this job and what it allows me to do for my amazing clients, and I am grateful to get to serve families like the L Family. 

Enjoy a sneak peek into our morning.

Cooper & His Family... Take II {Austin Family Photographer}

I was excited to see the W Family again recently on the morning of my mini-session specials this fall.  Last year, when I first met them (click here), Cooper's mama warned me that they were unphotogenic.  I'm certain that isn't true... And I love "proving them wrong" with adorable portraits of their sweet little family.  :) 

I love working with children, and am SO thankful that I'm a mama myself.  I have so many "get them to smile tricks" up my sleeve, and most were learned from working with my own kiddos.  There is something about having a 3 year old and little baby that just helps you "get it" as a child photographer.  For this session, there was a whole lot of talk about trucks, animal sounds, and I can't even say what else we talked about to get this little guy to laugh... but it rhymes with oogers.  :)

Enjoy a sneak peek into our mini-session. 


Mr. Holden... One Year Later {Austin Family Photographer}

I swear... I have the best clients in the world.  And I love being able to serve them year after year and to get to watch their sweet kiddos grow up.

I first met the D family last year about this time when little Holden had just turned one.  I remember how amazingly (!) blue his eyes were.  (Click here for last year's cuteness... still one of my favorite holiday themed shots.)  And this year he was such a big boy.  And so sweet.

It was such a pleasure serving the D family again with their mini-session, and even getting to do a few headshots for Holden's daddy.

Enjoy the blue-eyed cuteness.

Little Man Weston is 1! {Austin Family Photographer}

I'm so glad I could squeeze in the R family for a mini-session this fall as little man Weston turned one!  Oh, did he ever bring back memories of my sweet Miles turning one a few years ago. 

Raising toddlers and babies is certainly no walk in the park, but OH how sweet and rewarding the sweet little moments and cuddles are!  But as we all know, the "tiny years" go so quickly!  And that, my friends, is why I do what I do... I help other mamas like myself freeze those moments of squishy cheeks, "mama" and "dada" vocabularies, and those oh-so-sweet cuddles.

Enjoy a sneak peek from our session in their back yard.  I even got to enjoy Weston's daddy performing a few songs for him while I snapped away behind the camera.

Cute Charlotte {Austin Family Photographer}

One of the best parts of my job as a photographer is getting to work with families again and again.  I love creating a photography experience for them from start to finish... one that they enjoy coming back for each year.  And I love that they allow me to capture such special moments in their families' lives year after year. 

I first met the M family last year around this time when Miss Charlotte was turning one.  What a big girl she has become in the last year!  Her mom and dad are so in love with her, and rightly so... she's a doll.

Enjoy a sneak peek from our mini-session. 




Sweet Violet {Austin Newborn and Family Photographer}

As I sit here typing this with my 7 month old daughter sitting on my lap (how is she 7 months old already?!), I find that I am just such a sap for newborn sessions.  This one was no different.

Sweet Violet was ten days new when we did her portrait session, and let me tell you, her two big brothers were already so in love with her.  It was so sweet to watch.  It made me wonder if my two older brothers felt the same way when I entered the world way back when. 

What a lovely family of five they are, and what a pleasure it was to capture such sweet and special times for them to enjoy forever.  I have the best job in the world... freezing special moments like this in time and documenting the newborn tiny-ness that is over in a matter of mere days.  And then turning those sweet moments into artwork for my clients' homes.  I feel incredibly blessed to get to do what I love and work with such great people in the process.

Enjoy a little peek into our session.


Violet's mom had always wanted to have a portrait of her daughter laying on her wedding dress one day.  I love that we made that dream into something tangible that she can hang on her walls and something that will melt her heart for many years as she watches her sweet baby girl grow, and one day get married herself.
