Summer Heat

The heat of the summer in Texas always throws me. It makes me want to do absolutely nothing, including pick up my heavy camera or sit in front of my computer in my overheated office, typing a blog entry. But I will try to persevere one day at a time. The boys seem to prefer popcorn and corn on the cob, but I think that popsicles are the answer.

Sunday Dinner

These were taken a couple of weeks ago at our place. I leave tomorrow morning for a little Hill Country road trip with my friend Amy who flies into Austin this afternoon. Three days of booze, bbq and no babies. To say that I will return with many photos is a huge understatement. Until then, these will have to tide you over.

Sneak Peek | The Sherlocks | Austin Family Photographer

Some things in life are just meant to be and this family photoshoot was one of them. Cari contacted me ages ago to photograph her family and we had one miscommunication after another befall us. Incorrect email addresses, her four year daughter cutting off her bangs, etc threatened to keep us from ever meeting. But meet we finally did and I had such a great time with this family. They are so down to earth and REAL and I just love that. And they were up for anything, including soaping up the kids so that I could photograph them in the tub, which I have wanted to do for ages. Kismet seems big with this family, whose adorable pup Jojo followed them home for several miles when they were out for a walk one day and never left.

Bagel Brunch | Austin Photographer

Last weekend we had brunch at Susie and Stephen's house. Susie made homemade bagels and they were delish. She is also a fabulous web designer and we worked on a project a few months ago for the Griffin School and the site she designed is now live and I LOVE what she did.

Another Saturday Night at Central Market

Josh and I and the boys headed over to Central Market last weekend for some dinner and some beer with Katherine and her entourage. Poor little Finn was sick so daddy James took him home before the fun began. We also ran into little Alex from Ben's school. That's one thing I love about CM--you always run into someone you know.

Tiptoeing Through the Wildfowers

One of the best times of my day is when I drop off or pick up Ben from school. There is a stretch on Old Spicewood Springs Road where I feel like I am back in California. There are horses and fields, many trees. It feels like home. So one day Sam and I had some extra time on our hands and we finally got out of the car and walked around a bit.

Ben

Lately it is so hard to get Ben to look at the lens, so I was so happy when I got this at dinner tonight.

Playdate | Austin Children's Photographer

Miss Mollie hosted a playdate the other day and the kiddos had a ball. Sam also got a chance to get in touch with his girlie side with the accessories.

Sherry and Sofie's Shower | Austin Photographer

Miss Sherry is expecting her first baby girl next month so Shannon and Lisa hosted a baby shower at their studio. And Kim's baby girl was a gracious guinea pig for the camera. Can't resist a cute baby.

Adventures of Livemom and Lazygirl | Austin Commercial Photographer

Catherine and I and our two little assistants headed to Hot Mama's Espresso cafe for our kid-friendly restaurant reviews. Catherine will give a detailed review and I will link to it once she has published it, but for now here are the visuals. My two cents is that they have a near perfect outdoor space for kids if they only had the entire outdoor space gated in. Alas, they only have 75% of it enclosed and of course the 25% that is open faces the street. And of course THAT is where the cool fountain is that Sam was compulsively drawn to. There was also one other way out that I would never have found since it is about a six inch gap in the wall, but as you will see in the last image, Sam did. And it goes into a parking lot next door that in order for me to reach would have meant running all the way out to the street and then backtracking into the lot. So maybe not such a great place for wee ones without a leash. Luckily I caught the back of his shirt just in time.

Freya Turns Four | Austin Portrait Photographer

Little Miss Freya turned four and it was of course cause to celebrate, swim, drink and eat cake. The frozen cosmos knocked me out. Jennifer is truly one of the best hosts I know. Every time we go over there I remind Josh not to get any ideas about how things here at our house should be like they are there. Because that is just never going to happen.
