P Family {Austin Family Portraits} Dorean Pope Photography

 

I had so much fun with this family last weekend. They came from across the country to celebrate a very special birthday together at the Omni Barton Creek Resort. Five grandkids, five and under but we pulled it off!! And what an amazing keepsake for the whole family. Don't let the fact that you have a lot of littles keep you from trying for a family portrait! It will be worth it, I promise!

 

Baby V {Austin Newborn Photographer} Dorean Pope Photography

 

This little one was like a baby doll! I had so much fun with her that I had a REALLY hard time limiting my sneak peek... So y'all are about to get baby girl overload.

This session combined a whole lot of my favorite things... A sweet li...ttle baby girl, a family that travelled all the way from Indonesia (okay, maybe they didn't travel that far just for me but still, awesome to work with them and hear about their travel), and a YUMMY chicken wrap from the Phoenicia Bakery. I had a great time with y'all! Safe travels home!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Miss Kylie Turns 1 {Austin Child Photographer}

 

 

Miss Kylie is turning 1!!!  We celebrated with a portrait session and cake smash, but she missed the memo that it was a celebration.  She was quite unsure about everything that was going on and mostly just wanted her mama.  Thankfully, this was a day that I wasn't pressed for time and we were able to give little missy and break and hit reset for her.  Once we did, things went much more smoothly and I am so happy with the way we were able to capture her happy sweet self.

 

 

Baby R {San Antonio Newborn Photographer}

 

Loved getting to meet this new little family and do my first session in San Antonio! This sweet little one was a big fan of his swaddle. He didn't want to be out of it, but we made it work.

This appears to be the year of the newborn. Two already and I have another one tomorrow! So much fun... if you have baby fever, don't look!

 

 

Audria - Senior Portraits - University of Texas

 

The 4th time is the charm, right? This session was rescheduled 3 times because of the gloomy, cold weather that we've been having lately. Thankfully, we managed to make it happen before UT was back in session. We were looking for a library and a theatre to show off this girl's personality and style. It was a lot of fun!

Best of 2014 {Dorean Pope Photography} Austin, New Braunfels, and San Antonio Portrait Photographer

What a year!!  2014 was seriously the best.  I experienced a lot of change in my life this year with a move to San Marcos, but one thing that didn't change was my amazing friends and clients.  You guys stuck with me through the craziness and the move and many of you even headed a little further south than usual for your sessions to meet up with me.  Thank you so much for your friendship and support this year.   I am so very blessed to know you all and to call you friends.  

I'm looking forward to seeing you all again in 2015!!
