Here in Austin we have definitely held true to 'April showers' the past couple weeks. Spring is such an amazing time and I'm finding that my love for photography is a great way to document these changes in life. I was in Brenham Tx. at Jen's family homestead and the mood was perfect. Perfect weather, a beautiful sunset forming, cold beer in hand, and wonderful people to be with. Oh, and did I mention the amazing smell of bbq ribs on the grill? uh, yeah!!

Nature gave me some inspiration that weekend and I decided to go for a walk which led me to some of these amazing images of God's wonderful work! Thank you Seeker's for being such a wonderful second family and I'm grateful for your love and willingness to share your home with me.

Enjoy these images of our Savior's creation and join me in thanking those who love us enough to support our growth!

Their music isn't so primitive, and in fact I was pleasantly surprised when I went to shoot my friends band for one of their downtown shows. These guys all have the day jobs, but find time to live their rock and roll dreams at night! I swung by Momo's to see them for the first time a couple week's back and really liked what I heard. They seem to like what they saw from the 30 min I was there invading the stage! Thanks for the good tunes and good times guys! Keep up the great work and living the dream! Primitive Noise

When working to find a location for Kasey's (posted here) head shot's she mentioned having a friend who lived downtown with a great view and was a 'super cool girl'. Both statements were spot on! Stacy Zoern opened her doors to us and in turn we glammed her up and took some head shot's for her as well. Stacy's written a book about her adventurous life called 'I Like To Run Too!' Inspiration is only one of the many words that I'm sure have been used to describe Stacy, but just in my short time of hanging out with her I found her to be contagious! Her laugh that is. With such a great outlook on life you can't find much to complain about when you get a chance to hang out with her. I'd reco checking out her book if you can...I'm in the process myself. (And I don't read books!!)

Here are a few of her images along with her leading man at the moment...Charlie. I couldn't get him to stop biting my shoes for some reason. Maybe a little protective of other guys coming into the homestead!

Thanks Stacy for letting us take over your apt. for the afternoon!

In digging through some archives I realized I never posted images from my friends Mark and Colleen's first family portrait with their newly arrived son's. And when I say arrived they did it in style! Mark and Colleen are wonderful in many ways, (one being their amazing support for Hutto High School Football..I digress) and their huge hearts poured open when they adopted both Max and Griffin from Russia over the Christmas holiday. These little guys are just two cool kids and I know have made Mark and Colleen very happy. So without further adieu, here are the first family pictures of the Kilch's. (Callout to Buster for showing his new bro's how to pose)

It's been a long time coming for us to get Kasey's head shot's coordinated, but the stars finally aligned and we had a great time! Thanks to Cris from Artistry by Cris for doing the make-up and hair! It wasn't too hard to get Kasey comfortable in front of the camera since she's been acting for so long. She was awesome to shoot and she looks beautiful in these pictures!
