Honoring our mothers on Mother's Day { Austin Portrait Photographer}

Mother's Day - a day to honor our mother's.  So, it's only appropriate that today, I honor our own mothers.  Here is one of my mom's recent portraits I created.

   

My mother is a  woman of strength, courage & determination.  Her virtue of patience & understanding is greater in her than anyone I have ever known.  She's gentle and kind and is full of unconditional love.  Her beauty not only shines on the outside, but is even brighter on the inside.

For all of the happy memories you have created, for all you do and mostly who you are, today I honor my mother!  Happy Mother's Day Mom!

Honoring Aaron's Mom - the day I got married (and even before) Aaron's mother became another mom and friend to me.  Here's a beautiful portrait I took of her a few years ago.  Her sense of style & elegance was my inspiration for this portrait.



Mom has a fabulous sense of humor & is one of the most thoughtful people I know. I love laughing with her.  She raised a wonderful gentleman, that I love laughing with just as much! She is known to be a strong willed & very determined woman. Mom, we are so proud of your achievements lately!  Congratulations on your medal!  Happy Mother's Day Mom!

{Austin Children & Family Photographer} Practice makes perfect! I'll be looking for MODELS soon!

Spring Time is here and for me that means Texas School of Professional Photography!  This year I will be spending a week with an amazing photographer - Greg Daniels.

Texas School of Professional Photography is a week long school for Professionals to challenge their skills, check out what's new and what's hot, while receiving intense instruction from some of the best photography minds in the business. www.tppa.org

As intense & fast past as the school is, it's always best when I come home to practice what I have learned.  This year, I'd love to call on some of my VIP clients to come back in for some modeling.  Of course, you'll receive a complimentary session & a $100 studio credit to use as you please.  If I don't call on you this time, don't worry, there is always another time.  
 
It's also print competition season and as I prepare, there will be other opportunities for modeling as well.

If you might be interested in participating, please feel free to send me an email and let me know you'd like to be a model! maggie@photographybymaggie.com

A SMILE ON MY FACE & IN MY HEART

A family laughing together, the giggle and snicker of a child, the first grins of a tiny baby....

I have to smile thinking how blessed I am.  I have the privilege of creating heirloom portraits for my families.  How amazing is that!   

What I love about my career is all the wonderful people I meet, build a relationship with and get the opportunity to learn their inner beauty.  I have so much fun getting to know everyone and then creating special portraits for them.  I hope all my clients have a fun & fabulous experience with me.


My wish for you all is love and happiness!  Thank you to each and everyone for entrusting me to create your portraits!

Warm regards,
Maggie
