2021 ended with me catching covid couple days before Christmas, in fact on 25th I woke up with a sharp unusual throat pain and realized the over counter medications I have been taking were not helping because whatever I had was getting worst! Many thanks to the staff of the Urgent Care unit and Wallgreens Pharmacy that were open on Christmas Day! The doctor tested me for strep throat, flue and covid, in the end covid test came positive. Imagine this: at 9am in the morning on Christmas day I was told I was the 5th covid positive patient that day!
- The pictures are from my first outing after a long quarantine resting period This thanksgiving break was super lovely, I got to edit the wedding photos I shot two weeks back and submit them to the client. On Sunday I filmed an engagement session for the loveliest couple and in the evening I went to a Goat barn with Vallen for some creative photoshoot where she dressed up in a cute white dress and we got to be surrounded with unimaginable number of friendly goats asking us to pet them while we watch the sunset with them.
It has been such a long time since I worked in a collaboration photoshoot with a team. It was my husband Josh's first time, so I helped out with the makeup as he put a team of videographer and stylist together for this shoot. His focus is capturing more of the old school urban Austin as we used to know it before all the changes and I think it's such a great idea to work on this project. I have seen the sneak peak of the result and they have turned out so beautiful! Can't wait to share!
This past weekend I was a second shooter for a beautiful wedding at the Preserve at the Canyon Lake and met so many wonderful vendors such as Ashley Nicole Affair that did the wedding planning, everything was flawless and I am counting minute to finish editing the photos I shot.
It’s so hard to believe it is November! Here we are one month away from the rest of the year! I am now working 2 days in the office and the rest of days at home, I also signed up for gym! Going back to a gym after 2 years was such a strange feeling but my body could not have been any happier!
Finally I got to try the witch costume for Halloween, and this was my first time setting up a photoshoot for costume and it was so much fun!! of course compared to regular self portraits I got plenty more attention with my cape and witch hat walking around the park but it totally worth the efforts.
This is the second commercial video I have ever made, I always feel like I have to go out of the house to somewhere esthetic to photograph a work so this session is special to me as I finally set down my guards and shot this in our backyard. I hope with all the flaws it has it is pleasing to the eye and ear. I absolutely enjoy collaborating with brands and creating content for them, here is another opportunity that I had to work with a local brand here in Austin Texas, The product that is featured is Satin Touch mineral BB cream and for that I tried to go for a more relaxing blogger/vlogger style content for this session, to match the light feeling of the product. I hope you enjoy it. Over the weekend we got to shoot a proposal session, these are literally my favorite sessions! I can't believe I used to get back in the day so worries about them, With time and practice things definitely change and have a new meaning, because right now I am counting minute til the next proposal session I get to be part of!
