The P Family: Downtown Austin {Austin Family Photographer}

This family was just precious... from start to finish.  Their kiddos are almost the same ages as mine, and I just loved photographing their love and laughter.  Their daddy and I used to work together back in the day when I was the Fitness/Wellness Program Coordinator at UT RecSports.  Such a sweet family.

Enjoy a sneak peek into our downtown Austin session.

The B Family {Austin Family Photographer]

I first met this beautiful mama back in the late 90's when we were freshmen in college at Iowa State University and lived across the hall from one another.

We've stayed in touch over the years, and when they moved to Dallas about a year ago, I was so excited when she asked me to do her family's portraits one weekend when they were visiting Austin.

We headed to South Congress ("SoCo") for some good times and adorable photo opps.  Sometimes in life's busy-ness, I forget what a colorful, vibrant, cool city I live in.  It's nice to get back to the cool downtown spots every now and then with my camera.

I love how their session turned out.  Enjoy a sneak peek into our afternoon together. 

The S Family {Austin Family Photographer}

I loved working with the S family again!  This is the third time I've gotten to work with this sweet little girl since she was born.

What a fun age she is, and such a lovely little lady.  She has grown up so much since I first photographed her here.  I think she was the second newborn that I ever photographed!

And don't even get me started on how much I adore her mama.  She is the one that pretty much got me to move to Austin in 2004, and is not only my friend, but a mentor and inspiration to me as well.

And you know how much I love downtown Austin in the background, so when she said she wanted some skyline shots, I happily obliged!  Enjoy a sneak peek into our morning together.

One of the things I love about portrait sessions is helping my clients bring an idea to life.  This sweet pea loves her puppy, so her mama wanted to make be sure we incorporated it into some images.  And then we created a sweet Artful Word Overlay 8x12 mounted wall print for her room to go with her as she grows.

This family was just cute, cute, cute. 

The R Family {Austin Family Photographer}

Miles of Smiles Photography just celebrated our second birthday this weekend, and OH did I have fun doing some amazing shoots with adorable families!

I enjoyed every minute of my session with the adorable R Family.  What adorable little men they have, and how stylish all four of them are!  Their mama is a super creative gal with her photography business.  And she even made little E's bowtie!  She is doing my family's portraits in a few weeks.  We are like a zoo on wheels sometimes, so it will be fun having someone else in charge of capturing my kiddos on camera.  Like any mom, I know that taking pictures of your own kids can be quite the adventure sometimes.  :)

It is always a treat getting to shoot in downtown Austin.  We live in such a beautiful city!  We had a great morning together, and I just love how these turned out.  Enjoy a sneak peek from our session together.

I'm loving the "R" on the building in the first image below... for the "R" Family.

The B Family {Austin Family Photographer}

I had so much fun doing the B family's session in downtown Austin earlier this fall.  Beautiful city in the background, and such a nice (not to mention hilarious) family to work with.   I am so blessed to get to work with such amazing clients in this business.

Enjoy a sneak peek from our session.
