The Halloween Portrait Project is heading into its Sixth Year! Wow! Over the years I have made hundreds of portraits of Austin children in their Halloween Costumes. This project is definitely a favorite of mine. I LOVE seeing all the kids (and adults too.) Their creativity is boundless!

Third Child Syndrome – Misc. Monday [Austin Baby Photographer]
Like all families out there, ours is very busy. Between all the obligations and commitments, I often worry that I’m missing important times with my family and when I see the very empty baby book that belongs to my third child, I cringe.

Miscellaneous Monday – Dad’s Back! [Champaign Modern Photography]
After a 3 week separation from Ben while we were in Champaign and he was in Austin, the kids were super psyched that he was back in time to spend the 4th with us.

As a child, I was the consummate tomboy. So it often surprises me how much my daughter embraces anything and everything that screams, “GIRL!” Pink is good. Frilly is better. Sparkles are awesome. All three together? You have made a friend for life. One of her favorite activities is Spa Day. This was introduced when her older […]
