Jessica & AJ's Engagement Portraits

Jessica and AJ are getting married next year in Kansas City but live here in Austin and love it! They wanted to get some fun skyline shots of Austin to share with their friends and family that are spread out across the country.
We had so much fun taking these portraits around the Long Center. There are so many great views of the city and some interesting architecture and landscaping as well. We got extremely lucky with the weather, it was only 95 instead of 105 that day!

Zoe's Studio Portraits

Zoe came in for her studio portraits just at seven months old. She was such a ham for the camera and had a lot of fun practicing her new crawling techniques. She was doing pretty good! I'm afraid life is about to get a lot more interesting for her parents.
We finally got to really use the new wood floors and I couldn't be happier with the way they look in the photos. I love the natural look they give that you don't really get with the backdrops. I'm looking forward to using them more!

John & Christie's Anniversary Portraits

John and Christie are celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary this year! They have some exciting travel plans to celebrate, but also really wanted to mark the occasion with a portrait of just the two of them. It sounds like these two have really had an amazing forty years together. I really enjoyed working with them and taking these portraits outdoors, despite the insane summer heat! I've chosen a few of my favorites to share with you!

Rimkunas Family Portrait

I can't believe it's been six years since I was Kate and John's wedding photographer! They now have two beautiful children and are about to move to Chicago. They decided they wanted an outdoor family portrait taken at the same location where they had their wedding before they moved. Saint Andrews Episcopal School is just as beautiful now as it was then. The kids loved it there, although I think peek a boo and Cheerios may have been what really kept them going.
I wish the Rimkunas all the best in Chicago! I know they will be dearly missed here!
