One of the many blessings of being a photographer is photographing the important people in your life. These beautiful young ladies are my nieces and they are beautiful both inside and out. Don’t you agree…

Brother, Sister & George – Austin Child Photographer

I just adore this family and am honored to photograph their beautiful children over the years. George, their chocolate lab, has been at all but one session. He has always been well behaved and patient… waiting for his time in front of the lens. This spring, we headed to Butler Park and George came along. We started the session just walking through the park and we were lucky to have just the right amount of clouds to highlight our fabulous Austin skyline. Here are a few highlights from our session together…. Enjoy!

One Year – Austin Child Photographer

I’ve had the pleasure of photographing Sam throughout his first year. This session was extra special both because Sam had reached this wonderful one year milestone and also because we added his two big brother to the fun. Being a mother of three boys myself, I loved seeing these adorable brothers, just being brothers. We ran around and had a great time on this windy, cool fall afternoon.

Through my work with the 2012 Dell Children’s Miracle Book, I was able to meet this amazing family. Big brother is sweet, kind and so mature. The twins are just adorable. I loved seeing the strong connection between these brothers and their fabulous mother. Thank you D family for spending the afternoon with me!

One that got away – Austin Family Photographer

Rene — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 15:21:28 +0000

Somehow in the craziness that I will call this summer, I forgot to highlight one of my favorite summer sessions. The beautiful C family met me early on a, not too hot, summer morning to capture their family portrait. They have a gorgeous family both inside and out. I loved the silliness and smiles that they shared with me as well as seeing, first hand, their wonderful connection with each other. Thank you C family for sharing your morning with me!

Studio Mini Session – Austin Child Photographer

Last week, these adorable boys came in to the studio for a mini session. The theme was “show me your personality.” I could not have had more fun and I think the boys did too.
