Wegner Family | Austin Family and Newborn Portraits

THE WEGNER BOYS ….

Sounds like a great name for a country band to me, or the title for an adventure book series about 3 curious action heroes, or a group of 3 muskateers banded together by birth and destiny.

These boys could fall under any of the above titles and then some. Packed with fun, delightfully playful and a soon-to-be handful for mom and dad, they are a ball to be around and so much fun to photograph! We’ve luckily been asked to photograph each boy when he was first born and it’s been so interesting to see whose characteristics they’ve picked up along the way. Mom’s eyes and Dad’s smile, switched back and forth between the 3 sons, but each with a charming personality all their own. Iit’s easy to tell them apart even though I just know they’re united in mischief for their folks!

Can’t wait to see them again. Will it be with a 4^th son – or a family portrait of mom and dad running after the fast and furiously quick 3 wise-men? Don’t you think they need a dog?

Morgan | Austin Senior Portraits

Morgan arrived for her senior pictures direct from her family lake house, so she was relaxed, refreshed and full swing into spring break. She chose a 100 session, all outdoors, combining our portrait garden with a favorite spot on Bull Creek that is bursting with spring flowers & a beautiful stream. We photographed her sister Chelsea a few years ago, and Morgan brought her younger sister Haley along for makeup consultant, stylist and all around reflector assistant. Thanks for all your help, Haley!

Brent | Austin Senior Portraits

nat — Sat, 21 Apr 2012 15:19:25 +0000

Brent is the 3rd of three Miller kids we’ve photographed for that big happy family. Last week was a big week: Saturday Brent was a grooms man in his sister’s wedding, Monday senior pictures! Later this spring, a brother graduating from college ….
I think Brent’s a business man at heart, In not only his Deca project but Entrepreneurship class project both all but finished. (perhaps you’ll one day be planning your dorm rooms with an online design kit he’s perfecting. I think he’s having a hard time choosing majors – he seems a natural for business, but has a real knack for architecture. Also tells me he loves to hunt,…. anything that flies or has 4 legs, … or crawls (yeah to that!!) …don’t ask what he’s got stored in a cooler. Look out Ducks Unlimited

Sarah | Austin Senior Portraits

nat — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 15:08:30 +0000

It’s all about Austin! Well really, it’s all about Sarah! But she wanted her safari to be all about how great it is to live in Austin. We headed downtown into the SXSW melee early Friday morning of Spring Break. I’ve learned, that if you want great shots downtown during that happening event, but you still want to be able to get from one spot to another …. you’ve got to show up before the morning street sweepers! And Sarah was all for it!

Check out Sarah’s images, and see if you recognize some of places that make Austin weird, wacky, wonderful and lively! Sarah’s ideas for a safari were so creative …. I just couldn’t resist adding a few extra sneak peeks!

Sarah’s a senior at St. Michael’s. She’s been debating college in at either The university of San Diego, Davison College in N. Carolina, or UT. Hmmmm, what would your vote be after looking at her senior safari?

Ellen | Austin Senior Portraits

Ellen was a blast to photograph – funny, lively, and SO SO relaxed. She’s the senior manager of the Trojan Belles, and I can tell she’s the glue that holds it all together! Besides that full time job, she’s also in the band!I can’t wait to for her to see her gorgeous images.

Jordan | Austin Senior Portraits

nat — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 14:32:53 +0000

Jordan has a nice little connection with the The Driskill Hotel so we had a great time wandering around that beautiful historical building photographing before we headed out to the town before we ended up at the ball park. A senior safari …photo shoot FULL of character and Jordan’s amazing personality. Jordan is a key player on the Westwood softball team and will be headed up to the Windy City to pitch for the University of Chicago next year. For now, Enjoy Jordan.

Jillian | Austin Senior Portraits

nat — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 18:55:24 +0000

I had so much fun photographing Jillian on the Friday morning of Easter break – good Friday! She’s such an interesting person and so easy to photograph. The morning was one of Austin’s perfect spring days, so as she sat by Bull Creek playing her flute for a few alfresco band portraits, you couldn’t help but appreciate what a great place we all live. Jilly is going to UT this fall and planning on trying out for the Longhorn Band. Tryouts are over Memorial Weekend, so everyone be sure to send her positive thoughts and wish her luck. It’s a tough competition. She was part of UT’s Sideline Crew last fall, and said she loved helping out and watching the band rehearse – that’s what’s inspired her to one to be a part of the band

Right now she’s looking forward to her last school concert, where it will be the first time the band plays without the seniors. Her section has 7 flutists, 4 are seniors, so it will be a big change!

Jilly picked out a great selection of clothing for her senior safari – don’t you think she certainly knows which colors look great on her!!!

Pasternak Family | Portraits

nat — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 18:44:52 +0000

A perfect afternoon in the bluebonnets….

This year’s flower bounty in Austin is unparraleled to years before. It’s been wonderful enjoying them line our roadsides & hillsides once again. And photographing the Pasternak family amongst our favorite Texas flower couldn’t be a better choice. Although I’ve photographed this laughing loving family for years, this was the first time in the bluebonnets. I really don’t know which is bluer – the Pasternaks’ remarkably blue eyes, or Austin’s famous flower! What do you think? I met Allison and the kids at a local county park right after school one afternoon for some play time in the wildflowers, and soon dad roared up on his motorcycle to join in the fun. And you can really tell how the family dynamics turned to the wild side as his children delighted in seeing their dad after work!

Kristen | Austin Senior Portraits

Kristen was such a pleasure to photograph. With an easy going style, a relaxed smile that is always ready, and lots of interesting stories, I can see
why she’s McNeil’s student body president. She was definitely all smiles about the success of her school’s Mustang Boys Beauty Pageant. Great participants,
and the student body raised over $2000 toward their prom this year. Congratulations! The McNeil prom is going to rock!

Kaci | Austin Senior Portraits

nat — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 17:59:40 +0000

Kaci is a softball pitcher for McNeil, but you’d never know when she’s gracefully dancing around the studio in her beautiful lavender dress. She definitely knows what colors she looks terrific in! Spring break is a busy time of year for softball players, but Kaci was looking forward to a little break with her family in Galveston over the week. She’ll be heading to Trinity on a pitching scholarship this year.

By coincidence, when Kaci was in preschool at St. Thomas More, our studio office manager Lisa was Kaci’s teacher. Small world!!! It was like old home week when she and her mom first walked into the studio!

Gabi | Austin Senior Portraits

nat — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 17:43:08 +0000

I’ve photographed Gabi every year for the last 4 years ….. always in a McNeil soccer Jersey. But this time, she wore not only a shirt that says UNT (Yes, that’s the University of N Texas), but also street clothes! And wow, she cleans up pretty darn great! She looks so at home and beautiful in a girly dress, you’d never know she’ll be wearing a UNT Soccer Jersey come fall. Gabi is one of 17 McNeil seniors who have signed to play college sports this fall – congratulations ! UNT is lucky to have you. I know her younger sister Alexis will miss her on McNeil’s soccer field next year, as they’re playing together as sisters right now, which has got to be fun.

Gabi chose to do a 50 session, and I think it fit her perfectly. Spring flowers are everywhere, the stream is running full and the trees are just budding. I know we were all expecting lots of rain for Spring Break, but from my point of view … so far this spring break has been one of the most beautiful ever. Spring is a few weeks early, and we finally have enough rain to bring back the Austin outdoors we all know and love. Now’s the perfect time for portraits outside & Gabi took full advantage of it. She was totally in her element!

Emilia | Austin Family and Newborn Photography

nat — Tue, 13 Mar 2012 16:23:14 +0000

Last fall we had the pleasure to photograph Emilia Jane’s family …. before she was born!!! With her mom, dad and 2 twin sisters, we created a collection of images in anticipation of her birth … a little like a birthday present. When she’s older, Emilia will look at these images and see just how excited & happy her family was for her birth .

She’s a Christmas baby! … well, almost… Emilia Jane won’t have to share her birthday with Santa, but she’s definitely a December baby, born on the 7^th, a week before her twin older sisters 5th birthday. With the cutest hair ever, and perfect chubby cheeks, she rivals the cuteness of Ava & Sophia. These little dancing princesses are some of the best big sisters ever, patient and gentle with Emilia and always full of smiles and grand stories of their latest discoveries. Babies are one of our favorites to photograph, with soft beautiful skin, sparkling eyes & adorable tiny fingers and toes; we’d love to start every week photographing sweet babies like Emilia Jane …

Ryan | Austin Senior Portraits

nat — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 15:57:49 +0000

Ryan is so layed back & easy going, his photo session was more like a relaxed chat in the backyard rather than his senior portrait session. It’s just too bad he has such a hard time smiling -hahaha
I’ve photographed him since his 5 year old days at St. Theresa’s School & it’s great to see what an awesome guy he’s become. With his older sister Emily now on her way to A&M, and thoughts of Baylor in the mix, it’s hard to say where he’ll end out next year at this time, But for now, it sounds like Ryan is looking forward to football season starting bright and early Monday morning and his last year at Westwood.

Chad | Austin Senior Pictures

nat — Wed, 07 Mar 2012 18:02:38 +0000

Chad’s the captain of Westwood’s tennis team, and he’s got the tan, the smile, and the strength to prove it! I loved getting to photograph such a nice guy

Maddie | Austin Senior Pictures

nat — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 17:02:41 +0000

Maddie hails from New York, and although she’ll always be a big city girl, I think Texas has rubbed off on her just the right amount. One of her favorite quotes and life’s mottos is from her favorite musical Rent, “No day but today.” Plays lacrosse, speaks sign language, and sings beautifully….amongst many other talents! It was such a joy roaming Austin on a beautiful Saturday morning with Maddie & her sweet mom…..
