Seniors! Anna’s senior portraits at Chuy’s in Austin!

I love referrals and about half our business is referrals and increasing more and more every year. I suppose one could consider it a mark of success to move to a new town not knowing anyone and five years later find yourself not needing to advertise at all because you’ve made so many people happy that they tell their friends! Awesome! Anna was referred by a friend to us! We shot Anna’s senior portraits at the Long Center in downtown Austin then ran over to Chuy’s so shoot a few pictures inside and out because Anna love Chuy’s. Who can blame her? I love Chuy’s too and I suppose if I had a place that I would like to have pictures on a special day in my life, it might be at Chuy’s too. That is until In-N-Out Burger comes to town then there might be a new place that I’d like to be photographed! Anyhoo, after Chuy’s we went to the 360 bridge on Lake Austin and finished up with some pretty beautiful images there!

Olivia was a stylish and spunky senior who was almost too busy to get her seniors portraits taken! We are so happy she found time in her busy schedule to hang out with us in the Warehouse District in downtown Austin to capture these fabulous images!

Senior! Mason’s senior portraits in Killeen!

Mason’s mom was referred to us by the mother of a bride whose wedding we did in Salado in September. We did his session at his family’s cattle ranch in Kileen. Mason definitely fits in on the ranch!

Senior: Kelsey’s senior portraits at the mueller lake park in austin!

Kelsey was fun! She was a twin and I am certainly unsure what that would be like. We went to Mueller Lake Park and the 360 bridge for Kelsey’s senior pictures and created some very fun senior photos. She almost looked forlorn in some of the images but I love the look that was captured in her senior pictures. YA!

Seniors! Kendall’s senior portraits at mueller Lake Park in Austin!

Kendall was a twin. Not identical. Her twin was coming in the next day for her senior pictures. She played in band and loved to read. Sometimes I wonder what it is like to be a twin. Sharing the same birthday with someone else and always having someone there who is exactly you age seems kind of fun. We went to the Mueller Lake Park over near the old Austin airport which we had found earlier in the month. It’s a great place that was pretty nicely maintained with interesting details and colorful stone. Kendall brought a good amount of energy and enthusiasm and told me war stories of being in band and the boot camp like experience it was. All in all her senior pictures were awesome!

Senior! Cheslea’s senior portraits at the Long Center in Austin!

Chelsea was a volleyball player and apparently quite good as I think she was going to be playing in college after finishing high school As those of you who are ardent readers of my blog and my ranting on Facebook know I am quite the fan of volleyball and love it when I can talk to people good enough to go to college and play! Chelsea brought a lot of enthusiasm to the shoot and I brought my usual brand of wackiness to create some terrific senior portraits!

Senior! Lauren’s senior portraits in downtown Austin!

Lauren was in theater in high school and introduced me to High School Musi-pocalypse, a beautiful concept in this world filled with vapid musicals about perfect looking kids who idealize high school in a way never actually seen at a high school. I love theater people because they are typically so animated and love being in front of the camera. It makes my job of trying to pull something out of a shy personality a lot easier with people who are cool with people staring at them already. Lauren was a pretty mellow theater performer and wasn’t over the top, but was just right.

Senior! Keaki’s senior pictures in downtown Austin!

mistertime — Mon, 05 Sep 2011 06:58:51 +0000

I must have some following in Killeen because we get a lot of our weddings and seniors from people living up that way. Keaki, her father from Hawaii but now stationed on Fort Hood hence the Hawaiian sounding name, came down for her senior portraits with such a big smile! We shot some portraits around downtown Austin and then went to the 360 bridge overlook to finish out her shoot. We found out that we have a lot in common with Keaki’s mom in our food snobbery and she now is a proud holder of some of Christina’s kefir grains which Christina makes every evening and then puts in a smoothies for us in the morning. I love shooting senior portraits in Austin! You never know who you’ll meet!

Senior! Reid’s senior portraits at the Texas State Capital in Austin!

Reid’s mom Sally had a troop of seniors this year. Three to be exact, two twins and Reid. Reid was the first to come in for his session and was easy going and looked enthusiastic though it wasn’t his idea to get senior pictures. He just seemed to go along with whatever came a long and truly was amazing at giving those long forlorn looks that make you wonder what he was thinking. A very enjoyable outing!

Senior! Meredith’s senior portraits at the Long Center in Austin, TX

In 2009 I had the privilege of photographing Meredith’s sister’s senior portraits in Austin even thought she was only in town for a week visiting from Ohio and thought it was totally awesome that her sister Meredith returned two years later to have her senior pictures shot. Awesome! Meredith has incredible eyes that are almost hauntingly beautiful. We roamed around Austin from the Long Center to the beautiful and fun Meuller Lake Park shooting pictures. So Amazing!
