New Client Questionnaire – Photography Tips
One of my favorite spots on the internet is the Humans of New York Instagram feed. And while I like his photography, it's his interviewing skills that bring out moving stories of honesty and vulnerability that I love the most. When he was asked how he does it, "To get...
Heather & Carsyn – Holiday Portrait Session
Now that Christmas cards have gone out, it's safe to share this Holiday Portrait session taken at Zilker Botanical Gardens. Like years past, we did a combination Halloween / Christmas photo session. Carsyn loved spotting all the bugs, fish and furry creatures among...
Are we a good match? – If so, let’s work together
