Julie Blakeslee's (of Big Red Sun!) Funky Austin Home

Even though I shot this a while ago, I just couldn't let it get buried in the archives and never seen, it's just too fun of a house!  This is the home of Julie Blakeslee of the amazing (that's an understatement!) Big Red Sun, a landscape design company here in Austin.

Roger Hazard and Chris Stout's House!

I know, I know, I'm very behind on my blogging and trying to catch up, so this is kind of old news, but it's still one of my favorites and I've been excited to post it ever since I shot it.  Check out the home of Roger Hazard (producer/designer on Sell This House, Sell This House: Extreme and Move This House on A&E) and his husband, Chris Stout.  The house is located in Agave, a super-cool, modern and green neighborhood, here in Austin.

From the Archive

I was just digging through my archive and came across this pretty little house that I shot a while back and thought I'd share.  I just love the use of color, and I LOVE those funky little framed monkey prints!  Happy Friday!  Styling by Helen Thompson

Better Homes and Gardens!

I'm so excited to finally post the tearsheets from this story I did for Better Homes and Gardens of interior designer Kelly Moseley and her family's gorgeous, remodeled 1930s cottage. These images are really making me miss summer as I sit about 2 inches from my space heater, dreading going out in the 37 degree weather! Bring back the BBQs!

Take Monday Off...And Come to Austin!

Check out this fun travel piece I did for the Wall Street Journal. It's so exciting to see Austin getting so much great press, but at the same time, I really want it to stay a secret so it never changes! This shoot was really tough - I had to go to a bunch of my favorite places, eat at some of my favorite restaurants, and explore new areas that I hadn't been to before; can you sense my sarcasm yet? :)

Elizabeth Stanley's Home!

I'm really excited to finally share these super fun photos of Elizabeth Stanley's home, one of my favorite interior designers here in Austin. Upon walking through the front door of her home, I immediately fell in love. It had been a while since I had seen a house as breathtaking as hers. Not only was it luxurious and gorgeous, but the best part was the playful, unexpected details scattered throughout the house - a zebra head smoking a cigarette, a bedroom fireplace filled with pennies instead of stones, the fun Ingo Maurer chandelier in the stairwell, even a clever (and naughty!) neon sign over the master bedroom's bed. To top it off, the house was designed by the amazingly talented Ryan Street, who also did Lance Armstrong's Austin home.
