Continuing on the theme of escaping during this pandemic of 2020 through outdoor photography, I take you back to the mountains of Grand Teton National Park.

Not a bad place to escape to, eh?


 

With the pandemic of 2020 we’re going to have to wait a bit to chase each other in circles on Thursdays in Austin.

In the meantime here’s a shot from the first and last Driveway Series for a while.  I guess this is proof that some things are more important than bikes.


 

Watching the Tour de France has been great and all but having the opportunity to see these top tier cyclist battle it out in our own back yard is pretty much the coolest.

 


 

This snowy egret graced the banks of the Onion Creek in Austin, Texas on a warm July morning.

I felt privileged he didn’t mind the company.


 

Bikes are always in season.


 

Race days are upon us.


 

Being out in nature tends to inspire people in pretty remarkable ways.  That’s one of the many reasons, here at Austin Vivid Photography, we love to get out in the elements and help capture that spirit in image form.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us to help capture you in your element.  We would love to team up with you!  Also feel free to drop us a line anytime just to say hello, we dig that too!


 

Race day is when you find out if all the training will pay off.

On this day, for this NightOwl, it did.

 


 

Happy International Women’s Day!

 

If you know any amazing women in your life that could use a headshot, send them our way!  Staying dry during the session is optional, if needed.


 

I just came across this image I captured years ago.  It lived on an old hard drive and wasn’t given a second thought.  This shot is pretty different from how I shoot now but I wanted to share it here because like all photographs we make, it’s part of the process.  I feel like I am a better photographer because of images like this one.  Being able to self critique and see what did and didn’t work here.  It’s a constant learning game and I’m sure I’ll share something another 5 years from now that I’m capturing in this present time and be able to express the same sentiment.

I feel like that’s part of the beauty of art; it keeps growing and if we put enough work in, so long as we’re doing it right, we do too.


 

Road season is upon us in the US and here at Austin Vivid Photography we couldn’t be more stoked!

Please reach out to us if your looking to have your event or brand captured in some good light, figuratively or literally.  We would love to be your go-to for any photography needs you have.


 

Sometimes you just get lucky and you get a downpour on your hike through the massive hemlocks which then reveal the beauty of the Pacific only when the rains finally stop and the fog begins to lift.

Sometimes.


 

Taking the lead up a climbing route is not for the faint of heart; specifically when your talking about the face of the Grand Teton.

Here at Austin Vivid Photography, we love the adventurous and though we personally won’t be the lead climber we are more than happy to take the lead in any of your photography needs.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us so we can be there to capture you going to new heights, with our sweaty palms and all!


 

There’s nothing quite like being out capturing a storm blowing through.


 

This city has so much to offer and we like to think we do too!  If you have a product or brand that you want shown in a little different light please reach out to us to see what we can do for you.  We’re always stoked to take on new clients!


 

The funny thing about photographers is we are typically the first to run out in a passing rain shower and exclaim “oh man this weather is great!”.

For this view we hiked down to the beach in a pretty heavy rainstorm in hopes it would let up sometime soon.  Then 45 minutes after arriving, the rain let up and offered this beautiful view.


 

Adventure snacks.  Don’t leave home (or the tent) without them.


 

Where the land meets the sea.


 

There’s a vast ocean beyond that fog.  We just had to be patient as to when it decided to reveal itself to us in all its glory.


 

Our job in a nutshell:

Following you follow your passion.

I must admit, it’s not a bad gig at all.


 

It’s that time of year.  The scramble to get your family photos!

Here at Austin Vivid Photography our focus is not only on capturing stellar images for your family to enjoy but also making the entire process enjoyable from start to finish.

Over the years we have found that the more popular photo package this time of year is the 3 professionally edited images from your session for $250.  This fee includes the full session at either a location of your choosing or if you’re not sure where you may want your photo session, no need to worry, we have tons of ideas to share with you so you can make the best decision on what works best for you and your family.

We have plenty of other options to help fit your needs so please don’t hesitate to reach out and let us know what we are looking for because we are happy to help meet and exceed your vision!


 

How will your next adventure be captured?
