I grew up around artists, my Father was a great photographer and wood-worker, my Mom a jack-of-all trades craftswoman/seamstress and my grandfather and Aunt are talented painters, the list goes on and on. That being said I really did find myself wondering at one point why I didn’t have one of those classic Texas oil paintings I grew up admiring in my home.

Well, it’s my turn! I have the honor of showcasing a Audrey McCullough original in my home! (Insert Audrey rolling her eyes now) I mean it! It’s GORGEOUS and just one of those things that has to be seen in person. As a photographer it’s hard for me to say it, but a picture just doesn’t do it justice. The vibrant color of the red poppies and bluebonnets, the beautiful warm hill country background, it’s stunning! That being said, I had to share it, so here is my beloved Texas Oil Painting an Audrey McCullough original!

To find an original oil painting you can’t live without or to request a custom piece, including pet portraits, visit Audrey’s new Etsy shop at http://www.etsy.com/shop/audreyspaintings.

I had a great session this morning with the staff of PR by the Book. An Austin based PR agency specializing in Publicity/Media Relations Campaigns and Services for Authors, Publishers, Businesses & Products.

Owner, Marika Flatt is currently working on re-branding the business look with a modern, fresh feel so it was the perfect fit! The staff found a really eclectic business downtown called the East Side Showroom to do the portraits and my challenge was to do totally unique headshots of each person. I loved the challenge and I think the outcome is perfect for the new website & logo.

Thanks again Ladies (& Doug) for being wonderful models! I wish you guys the best in launching the new branding!

Speaking of Friends. Here’s a pic from last weekend when I met up with my friend Jenny whom I hadn’t seen since we are TEN years old! That’s Army life for ya! She happened to be in Texas and we just HAD to see each other. It was like time stood still all these years, we hit it off all over again remembering funny memories, not so great memories of the transition from Army life to civilian schools, etc.

Jenny & Sarah~Best Friends FOREVER!

I love my baby club kiddos, but recently I’ve had a lot of boys. Now I have two new girls in the club and Miss Camryn is the first! She was so good and followed are little photography schedule by the book! Start awake and end asleep, perfect! She is so cute and better grow up fast so her big brother can teach her all he knows!!

Camryn loved being in my little nest basket, so much so that I just picked her up and put her just about anywhere without notice. Here are a few sneak peaks including some with their amazing new front door and artwork!

Enjoy your sneak peek!

Once again, my beautiful models make me look GOOD! Bri did amazing out at her senior portrait session this week. We had a lot of fun and the day could not have been more perfect! This location is super popular so there was another photographer there working with a young baby. She kept telling him, “Show my your belly.” in my head I laughed b/c I’m usually the one saying that since I mainly photograph younger children. So, without another thought I told Bri “Show me your belly” in a that same high voice we all talk to kids with. I think the other photographer thought I was mocking her….but I got a great smile out of Bri!

I digress, Bri, enjoy your sneak peek, more to come soon!
