Paws For A Cause - A Pet Portrait Event on October 17th, 18th & 19th at Taylor Made Photography in Pflugeville, Texas

Hello,
My name is Tinkerbell!!

I am so lucky to have a nice home with my very own humans that love me, a warm bed to sleep in and all the food & toys that I could ever want! A lot of my furry friends out there at local shelters aren't so lucky.

My human family at Taylor Made Photography has come up with a wonderful way for everybody to help my friends at the Pflugerville Animal Shelter!

Tell your Humans to bring you and your buddies to the studio for
PAWS FOR A CAUSE
OCTOBER 17TH, 18TH & 19TH

Portrait Packages start at just $99, so they can carry beautiful photos of you everywhere they go, (Humans love to do that!) or they can pose with you for an updated Family Portrait.

It is the perfect time of year to get the kids together and let my humans make
Christmas Cards for you! Tracey will have some wonderful deals for you!

The sitting fee is only $25 plus a 20 pound bag of Pet Food or Cat Litter.
The Pflugerville Animal Shelter is also in need of Toys and Towels for my furry friends to enjoy if you would like to bring these as an extra donation. Monetary Donations in the form of a check made out to the Pflugerville Animal Shelter would also be greatly appreciated.


So please ask your humans to call Tracey or Rhonda at 512.494.4267 to schedule your session time. Space is limited so please call today to guarantee you will get the day and time you need!!

Sincerely,
Tinkerbell Taylor
We will have several backgrounds available for your portraits. Of course there will be the white room, the brown wall, the barn set with the hay as well as several other canvases and colored paper such as pink and yellow to choose from.

Please bring your doggie or kitties favorite toys, bedding, blankets and treats!! If you are thinking of doing Christmas Cards you may want to dress your pet up in the appropriate outfits for the occasion!! We are going to have so much fun and raise tons on Pet Food and Cat littler for the needy animals at the Pflugerville Animal Shelter!

Very Exciting News for Taylor Made Photography and a local family!


I have such a special story to tell!! I am honored to be a part of this journey this family will be on for the next several months as well as for many years to come!

Ethan actually came to me back in June as a referral from another one of my clients. He wanted me to photograph his daughter and him by themselves as a surprise gift for Cassie, his wife. He was soooo cute about it and so excited to do this for her!!

He went and picked Eliot up from pre school without Casey knowing it, packed her clothes.... everything just perfect. We did the session of just him and his 4 year old daughter, Eliot, and the images were so cute, fun and playful just like he had wanted. Then he choose the perfect image and had me add a letter he had written to her on it. Then before I framed it he came in and hand signed the letter portion of the print. He was so nervous you would have thought her was signing gold!!

Then, to give it to her... oh man... sweet!! Guys... pay attention to this part!!

Ethan made a romantic Dinner Date with Casey to take her to their favorite little restaurant here in Austin one night. When the waiter seated them at their table the print was hanging on the wall above the table! She apparently was quite shocked and thrilled with the print!! The letter he wrote was very personal and touching!!

Ethan and I had made the arrangements that they would all come back as a family and do their family portraits and shots of Casey and Eliot together to go along with the ones we had already. Ethan had told me the day he choose the image that they were trying to get pregnant. Then when he brought her in to see all of the images they had taken that day they had the wonderful news to tell me!!

They were Pregnant!!! I was so excited for them, that it had happened so fast for them.

Then they said "... WITH 5"!

I about DIED!!! I about fell out of my chair!!

So needless to say we are going to document the pregnancy with images here at the studio about every 3 months for as long as she is able to be out of the hospital. Once she has to be on bed rest in the Hospital, I will pack my gear and go to her every 3 weeks!



Can you even imagine?? 5 BABIES!!! Please keep this family in your thoughts and prayers over the next year! They are hoping to maintain the pregnancy till February of 2009!! She is currently 14 weeks along and the first images here are from her first session at 10 weeks.

Please keep a watch on my blog, I will keep you updated on their progress regularly! I will also be doing some sort of a fundraiser for this family around the first of the year, so please let me know if you have any ideas for that if you would like to help!

Thank you Casey & Ethan for allowing Taylor Made Photography to be a part of this incredibly special time in your life! I am so excited to be able to document it for you, it is truly an honor!! It really means a lot to Rhonda and myself. Please, let us know if there is anything we can do for any of you during this time.

A Baby on the way for Taylor Made Photography - Austin's Preimer Maternity Photographer






This is Mrs. M, and she is just glowing, and beautifully expecting a brand new baby boy! These are some of my favorite images from her session. I love it when women, no matter her size, big or small, are comfortable in their own skin... and she defiantly is!! This is one of my favorite types of sessions to do, the Maternity Sessions. Such a beautiful time in a woman's life and it should be celebrated!!

Thank you Mrs. M for allowing me to be a part of this wonderful time in your life! I can't wait to meet that baby boy!

Another new baby for Taylor Made Photography






Meet Mr. Harrison. Oh he has the cutest little smile and eyes that just light up the room!! I almost did not need my lights!! =) When his Daddy sings to him you can just see the joy and excitement ooze from this precious baby!! As you can see by his expression in the family shot... ya know when Daddy was not signing to him... I obviously was not as impressive as Daddy was!!

By the end of the session he was completly tuckered out from all the playing and signing!! He ate a quick snack and was OUT for the count. We took advantage of that time and got some adorable shots of him while he was asleep.

Again, I am so looking forward to watching him grow!

One of the newest additions to our BeBe Plan at Taylor Made Photography

Meet little miss Jayden!! Isn't she just a cutie?? I look forward, as I do with all my new babies that join the BeBe Club at Taylor Made Photography, to watching her grow up so closely over this next year!
