Austin + LA Pregnancy Photography : Glowing

July 17th, 2010

What a relaxed and fun session we had!  Can a momma be more radiant late in pregnancy?  What a sport you were, when I asked you to vault through you yard!  Really enjoyed working with you both,  and can’t wait to photographically welcome your new baby in a few weeks. So very many amazing images to choose from. here is a tiny sneak peak.  gruesbeck studio 10 : austin + LA + aspen baby photographer

Austin + LA Baby, Child and Wonder Photography : At the seashore

July 3rd, 2010

maggie and milly and molly and may

went down to the beach(to play one day)

and maggie discovered a shell that sang

so sweetly she couldn’t remember her troubles,and

milly befriended a stranded star

whose rays five languid fingers were;

and molly was chased by a horrible thing

which raced sideways while blowing bubbles:and

may came home with a smooth round stone

as small as a world and as large as alone.

For whatever we lose(like a you or a me)

it’s always ourselves we find in the sea

Austin + LA Baby, Children, Family Photography : Flowers in the Garden

June 27th, 2010

“Sisters are different flowers from the same garden.”  ~Author Unknown

We met little sister on this visit (our last session she was still in the hatch!).  Little C was quite the fiercely clear soul.   Tenderness and connection with each other in moments snatched, playing in tow and pulling in and out of each other’s imaginary worlds.

So many images to choose from, enjoy this morsel.  gruesbeck studio 10 : austin + LA + aspen baby photographer

June 14th, 2010

dsc_5157dsc_5288dsc_52251gruesbeck_blog_amenThis is our fourth session with this sweet family.  It is such a blisteringly fast ride from babyhood to childhood.  Photographs stop time forever, and freeze in your heart the feeling of what it is to hold a baby, play with a toddler and chase  a kid!    Thanks for the honor of documenting this process, and we have so many killer images from this session to add to your collection. gruesbeck studio 10 : austin + LA + aspen baby photographer
