Family Photo Session Giveaway - Austin Family Photographer

It's been a little over a month since we had our last giveaway around here, so I thought something fun was in order to celebrate Thanksgiving!  I am thankful for MY family, both immediate and extended.  They are so very special to me.  I am also thankful for all the families I've had the chance to work with over the last couple of months - they are such fun, wonderful people.  It has been a busy month!  I have been all over Central Texas doing sessions in Austin, Cedar Park, Leander, Pflugerville, Round Rock, Bastrop, San Marcos, and Gruene and it has been a BLAST!!  Thank you all so much for letting me capture your sweet families!

I'm including below some of my favorites from recent sessions.  (I had to limit the number of shots so there wouldn't be way too many on this post, so please don't feel bad if yours wasn't included - there are so many more I would have LOVED to include.)

To enter the giveaway, all you have to do is post a comment on THIS blog post telling me which picture is YOUR favorite.  If I reach 200 comments by the end of the day on Friday (11/26/10) then I will use random.org to pick a winner.  The winner receives a free mini-session.  (A mini-session is 30 minutes long and includes 5 digital negatives.)  Only one comment per person, please.  Your comment is your entry.  (If you already won a mini-session from me this year, you will not be eligible to win, sorry.)

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!!!

San Marcos Plaza Park - San Marcos Family Photographer

A fun filled family session with three beautiful little girls last weekend at one of my favorite spots in San Marcos. 

Welcome Baby S - Austin Newborn Photographer

Welcome to this precious baby boy!!  We love him and his family and are so happy that he's arrived!  For some reason, I was just in love with so many of these images in black & white that I kept picking them for this sneak peek... maybe I am just in a black and white mood?  Who knows why, but I hope you enjoy!

South Congress - Family Portraits Austin

A sneak peek for a wonderful family and great friends!  They have been some of my biggest supporters, cheering me on since I started this business.  I love them and always look forward to our sessions and the creativity that this lovely mama brings to the session.

Baby E - Austin Newborn Photographer

A little change up from what has become the norm around here with holiday family photos in full swing.

I got to hang out with this handsome guy and his mama the other day to capture him while he is still brand new.

Congratulations, you guys! He is perfect!
