I just want to say a little something out loud for all of you to hear… 2009 was a stellar year and I owe a vast amount of that to my fabulous clients. I just can’t thank you all enough for your business and continued support. I have met some of the most amazing people this year and their equally amazing pets. This has been such a rewarding year and I am so very thankful! I also want to let my clients know that it’s through their continued patronage and support that I am able to donate my time and photography sessions to charitable animal rescue organizations in Austin. I feel that I am making a real impact in the animal rescue community and it’s something that I continue to do even more of in 2010!
It’s hard to imagine saying this but this is most likely (don’t hold me to it) my last blog post of 2009 and boy is it a doozey! This blog post is SO sweet that you may want to have your teeth checked for cavities afterward. I mean really people… this is without a doubt one of my favorite shoots of 2009. Jacque, Brian and their ADORABLE pup Winston traveled all the way from Dallas to see me! We met up at the Four Seasons and I took major advantage of their lovely room decor and balcony. Winston was a DREAM to work with. He knew some of the craziest awesome commands I’ve ever heard… like “super chill.” Which prompted the little dude to lay his head all the way down. Winston was trained by the fabulous Nancy Cusick in Austin and judging from what I saw in Winston she must be incredible. I was giddy with delight to see Winston’s reindeer outfit complete with blinking red nose. I SO wish I had video so you could see it in action… let’s just say you’d die from the cuteness. We headed out in the chilly weather to some fun locales around town and had a blast. Thank you so much Jacque, Brian and Winston for making my 2009 FABULOUS!!!
Rudolph’s got nothing on this little guy

Jacque raised Brian’s pant legs and showed me his red socks. I loved it! I thought it was a particularly nice touch.


Dapper little Winston and family


Winston loves his mommy

I loved that Jacque picked up Austin Monthly for the shot on the right. It was perfect!

Winston has perfected the “super chill” command. Look at that?! ADORABLE!!


Hello lovely balcony overlooking Lady Bird Lake


A lovely blue wall on a chilly day sends the shivers away! Maybe…

So fun!

I hope everyone has a very safe and very happy holiday. It’s going to be a fantastic 2010!!
XOXO,
Nicole
