Gemma – sweet, kindhearted, beautiful, smart, accomplished…

I am so excited to finally be getting these shoots up on the blog! Gemma’s senior sessions brought me so much joy! Both were filled with so much laughter and excitement as we chatted about her future plans and the memories we have had over the years.

For her photos, Gemma wanted a mix of seasons and locations so we decided on two shorter sessions were the way to go – a winter session around downtown Austin and a spring session at Mayfield Park. I’m so glad that her joyful and fun-loving nature shines through in these photos!

Austin! What a joy it was to be able to celebrate you! 

Austin was my first class of 2021 senior and working with him and his family was so fun! They joked and laughed together throughout the shoot. And I loved how having his family around and talking to him instantly helped Austin feel more comfortable in front of the camera. 

To work around his busy football schedule we decided to break his session into two mini sessions. The first was this one around downtown Austin 🙂 This session we decided to check South Congress’ Music Lane, as well as a few classic spots in the area. We ended our shoot with a small hike to the 360 Overlook.

The sun was a little brighter than I normally would like, but it gave a natural contrast that allowed these photos to really pop. I honestly love how these photos came out and can’t wait to see what our second shoot brings us.

Smart, beautiful and photogenic. What more could a photographer ask for from their little sister? Nothing really. 

Getting to take Sierra’s senior photos was such a special experience. It was so fun to be able to share what I love to do with her while getting to capture this moment in her life. AND everything about this day was on our side. The lighting? Perfect. The weather? Perfect. The locations? Perfect. And Sierra? Well gorgeous of course. 

As we bounced from location to location together, Sierra, my mom, and I smiled, laughed and made memories that were engrained into our minds with each photo taken. It was truly a one-of-a-kind experience.
