Some Recent Pictures From Paula
My First Trip to the Fabrication Yard
As a photographer, I'm always looking for a new, exciting location for photo shoots, the perfect lighting, and the perfect pop of color or interest for photos. Searching for an unusual looking tree or plant, a unique doorway or staircase, or anything to make a picture...
My Very First Mother/Daughter Photo Session with Two Very Special People
I was so excited about this photo shoot with one of my good friends and her daughter. The two of them planned to get all dolled up and have some pictures taken and printed out for Dad's office wall as a Christmas gift! What a great idea! We were sitting at dance class...
A Special Kind of Photo Session Filled With Over 55 Years of Love
This photo session was a first for me, and I'm pretty sure it will go down as one of my all time favorites. I was approached by a friend who was interested in doing an "engagement" type photo session. I just love this old black and white photo they brought with them...
Senior Photo Sessions – What Should I Bring With Me? And What Should I Wear???
What should we bring to our photo session? What should my senior wear? How many changes of clothes should we bring? Where should we take his/her pictures? These are all questions I get from parents who schedule senior photo shoots with me. All great questions too, and...

Keep Austin Weird: A Senior Photoshoot With My Favorite Longhorn
Keep Austin Weird. I see this on bumper stickers and t-shirts all over the place, but since I haven't spent much time in Austin, I didn't really completely understand it. After spending a weekend exploring the area and looking for fun spots to take senior photos, I...
Trick or Treating Does Not Last Forever…So Enjoy It Now (and take pictures)!
Now that I have a middle schooler and a 4th grader, I can see that my time of having cute little Halloween mini photo sessions with them in their costumes is almost over... So very sad. Halloween is not my favorite holiday by any means, but I sure do love the pictures...
Don’t Forget the Quiet Moments in Between All the Action Shots…
Everyone, myself included, always loves the action shots in sports photography. You know...the money shots. Your child scoring a goal in soccer, catching a pop-fly, tagging someone out at the plate, or throwing a perfect curve ball when they're pitching. Sometimes...
