The "B" Family | Family Portrait

I had the pleasure of photographing this gorgeous family in downtown Austin. The weather was perfect for walking around, clear blue skies with temperatures in the 70s. It was a 2 PM shoot, and other than having to use some creative measures to battle the intensity of the sun (OCF and secret shaded areas are wonderful!), it went smoothly. But the technical aspects of photography are nothing without great clients like this family: clients who are willing to walk whole blocks to reach multiple destinations, or to sit on the not-so-pristine, chilly ground to get *the* shot. They did it all with smile on their faces. Honestly, though, that probably had so much more to do with the fact that they were able to be together for Christmas this year, or that, for at least a little while, they are a whole family, able to hold one another and laugh together. What a blessing.
