Bluebonnets in the Heart of Texas

If you live in Texas, springtime brings the much anticipated bloom of the bluebonnets in nearly every roadside ditch and field.  My husband and I took a drive on country roads out to Fredricksburg and back one lazy Saturday in April, and I felt nearly drawn to tears by the gorgeous, lush sea of blue flowers paving our way.  It’s no wonder bluebonnet photo sessions are a necessary part of living here!

This beautiful family is the reason my husband and I moved to Texas.  Pastor Ezra and Kendra Stanton started Mission Church in Round Rock.

Shout out to Kendra of Citizens of Beauty for modeling her beautiful family, as well as Pastor Ezra of Mission Church.

Texas Charm

My husband and I moved to Austin, Texas in February, and our transition from the Pacific Northwest to the hot beautiful hill country of central Texas was made possible with the help of this amazing couple.  With our intent to rent a house being immediately discarded due to high rental cost and quality of options, champion realtor Ivy Stanton found us a perfect brand new home and walked us through the buying process from the moment we set foot on the property to the final signing of the papers.

If you live in the Austin area and are thinking about selling your home, Ivy and her husband Ed offer concierge, trustworthy service and complimentary professional staging.  And please know I am not being compensated in any way to write this post, it is truly a joy to know this couple and we feel so welcomed in Texas, thanks first to them.  I am honored that they asked to have a photo session with me.  Enjoy!

What a story we have about this journey to a new land, one that has had blessings poured out upon us each unknown step of the way.  If you ever need your faith in God to grow, move out of state to a new settling place!

And if you live in the Austin area, I’m now booking for portraits and family photos!2016-07-23_0007
