Austin Baby, Toddler, Child Photography : The Butterfly and Acorn

Little e found a butterfly wing in our wood walk today.  He carried it with care, simulated butterfly flight, and stroked it saying “niiice” and brought it all the way home.

He showed his friend an acorn yesterday, it brought him so much delight to find, name and share a small nature treasure.  I didn’t even realize that he remembered what an acorn was or how to find one.   Although he is still a little young for the exercises in this book, we earnestly love dirt in this photographer’s house.  gruesbeck studio 09 : austin baby + toddler + child photographer

Austin Baby, Toddler Photography : Father and son

“Hello daddy” . . . such sweet words to hear from your little boy.  Simple expressions, full of heart and tenderness.  Adore the connection between little e and dad.   Treasure that we are able to capture it! gruesbeck studio 09 : austin + LA + aspen baby toddler child photographer

Austin + LA Baby, Toddler and Child Photography : Prince and the Pea

Still catching up with our last few trips, a few snatches from our recent travels to Santa Cruz, though the Central Coast and into LA.  Loved the boardwalk at Santa Cruz, with quite a few attractions from the seaside pleasures of 100 years ago. Further  down the coast, we also detour into sleepy Morro Bay to eat at our favorite local market and organic cafe.  Little e’s maiden voyage out of the high chair, the slipping and sliding phonebooks are THE new booster chair!. With an errant move, he slid right off, but that was part of the whole fun of it.  gruesbeck studio 09 : austin + LA + aspen baby toddler child photographer

Austin + Aspen Child Photographer : Ella Revisted

Another session sweet Ella in Aspen.  Rolling in the grass is now favorite new hobby, especially when they are hills and valleys. Simple pleasures make the best life experiences (and photo sessions!)  gruesbeck studio 09 : austin + LA + aspen baby photographer

Gruesbeck Studio : Austin + LA Baby + Child Photography : Sea wonders

We have just returned from a week in NYC,  which was immediately preceded by our  travels from San Fran, down through Big Sur and down into LA.  Hardly a moment to catch up on proofing, much less care for client work, I still just had to post this image of  little e at the most amazing aquarium.  Fills me with wonder even though I have been quite a few times, but the eyes of a little person seeing it for the first time are a sight to behold.  He hopped on one leg and moaned with glee.  gruesbeck studio 09 : austin + LA + aspen baby photographer
