SHUTTERWHALE: June Mini Session Magic!

It seems like everyone is doing mini sessions these days, so I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. After a 12 hour day of heat (don't worry ladies, we took a generous lunch break at Cafe Brasil nearby and face-palmed some of their delicious treats!) (Read: ate way too much, needed a nap, so followed up with several gallons of REALLY GOOD coffee...) we decided that this whole mini session event thing is soooo going to happen again. We loved it! Zac from SHUTTERWHALE Dallas, and Edward from SHUTTERWHALE Houston came down to help make sure that everything ran perfectly while Carlynne was oblivious to the rest of the world while photographing (read: horsing around with) all the super cute kids everyone brought. It was great!

I don't know what kind of magic allowed me to fit this beautiful 5 foot long couch in my Mini Cooper for the shoot, but I'm just going to accept the universe's mysteries and go with it this time.

This session takes place at Hermann Park (You can find the details page we sent to each client here ) and we chose a beautiful couch from World Market with accent pillows and throw to create a classic look with some modern springtime pops of color and pattern. Each mini session event we do will have different props and location, but June's sneak peek photos should give you guys and dolls a good idea the style we will go with.

Our next upcoming photo mini session date will be August 16 and spots are limited! Contact Carlynne@Shutterwhale.com for all of the nitty-gritties.

Now.... BEHOLD!

This little guy was all smiles! We even got to break the news to the whole world that Mommy is expecting a little sister!

How special is that?? Pink tie and all, gold star for this little guy!

Could she be any more perfect? LOVE. What could she be thinking about? The universe? Batman? Mommy's keys? Shooting at sunset is my FAVORITE. It's this magical time of day and we were so lucky to have such perfect light to wrap this mini session event up! Landry's awesome mommy endured 45 minutes of traffic for this, but I think it was WELL worth it!
