in 2016

It's pretty obvious I didn't do much shooting in 2016. I did a lot more observing and reflecting. I'm so excited to get back in action in this next year! I'm going to find more challenging approaches and kind of step outside the box. I think one of the my favorite moments of this year was Cierra and Michael's maternity shoot. It was my first real maternity session and I'm still so completely in love with the set.  I'm also working through shoots from this year (one of Kaitlyn from this May. I know, I'm a slacker).

Woah, where has the time gone?! Honestly, online life has been on pause because I'm scheming up some big things and shoots for the future on top a day job and just regular life. Also...a wedding I'll be in. 

I actually took these back at the very beginning of January. I know, I know. I've been hoarding good shoots like this for months now. Honestly, it was the perfect shoot set on a perfect day. I couldn't of asked for better weather or a better looking duo to take pictures of (along with a sweet husband playing assistant and driver.) I love these two and miss them so much it actually hurts me from time to time.

A pair of best friends, Jasmin and Ricky, got in engaged in Amsterdam this Summer! Not only do I get to take their engagement pictures but I'm apart of the wedding party. Yep, just over here trying to fulfill my bridesmaids duties from 200 miles away, but I'm lucky they're literally the most relaxed pair on the planet. 

They wanted to take a couple at the State Fair, which I honestly was skeptical about but everything from the weather to the lighting turned out great! They'll be here in Austin soon to take their fancy photos, but I'm hoping this holds them off until then.
