Austin Maternity Photographer | Hart Maternity

We headed out to Commons Ford Metropolitan Park for Ruthie Hart's maternity pictures and lucked out with a perfect 70 degrees and sunny day in the middle of all of these dark rainy days we've had lately (please get it together Austin, I thought we left Alaska!). I am in love with the gorgeous lighting we got at sunset, this might have just taken the spot for my favorite session ever. Beautiful family on a perfect Austin,  Texas day...couldn't ask for more. 

Ruthie wrote me the best review I've ever gotten:

"I don't think I can sing the praises of Mallorie enough after our maternity photo shoot last weekend! First of all, she was incredibly accommodating with the date and time and worked around my husband's busy travel schedule so that was a huge blessing! She carefully scouted out the most beautiful location and made sure the time of day was perfect so we could get sunset shots. The planning and prep she puts into her shoots is amazing! I had been pinning ideas and sharing them with her so she knew exactly what I was looking for in my maternity/family photos. As always, my toddler ran the show and she was so patient following him around and taking his lead, all while capturing some tender moments between my husband, son, and me. She is such a hands on photographer- climbing trees, laying in the mud, and doing everything in her power to get my cranky toddler to smile and laugh. It is such a blessing to work with a photographer who makes you feel comfortable and at ease (especially for men who aren't always themselves in front of the camera). She made me feel beautiful, which isn't easy to do when you are almost 9 months pregnant and exhausted. She sent me sneak peeks that evening and I was floored by how she was able to capture such amazing photos despite the chaos. I am really looking forward to our newborn photo shoot with her in a few weeks! There is no one else I would trust more!" ≫≫ Ruthie Hart, Austin, Texas.

Love this sweet, growing family and I can't wait to meet baby Lucy in just over 5 weeks!

Austin Family Photographer | Ford 18 months.

Ruthie and I started out as internet friends, way back in the day, thanks to our blogs. Before we moved to Austin (the first time), she and Jon let us stay with them for a night and gave us a great first impression of the city. We got to know each other well during dinner dates with other blog friends and awesome parties at their beautiful home. The last time I saw her, she was very pregnant with Ford and I was heading to Alaska for the first time.

For the last year, I've been dying to meet Ruthie's adorable little boy Ford! I was so excited when she text me and let me know she was in labor (while I was in Anchorage) and since then I've watched him grow into the cutest little 18 month old ever, thanks to Instagram. Let me tell you, he is just as handsome in person.

Told you he's a cutie. Make sure to leave him some love in the comments!

Here's what Ruthie had to say about the session:

"I had the pleasure of working with Mallorie for my son's 18 month photos last month and we were very pleased! She was incredibly flexible on time/location/day/weather which is huge when trying to wrangle a toddler. She was so laid back and basically just let my little guy run around and captured the most beautiful pictures of him! I didn't feel rushed at all, she spent quality time with us and I can't thank her enough! She is incredibly talented and we can't wait to use her again for maternity and newborn photos!" ≫≫ Ruthie Hart, Austin, Texas.
