Bonnie Berry Photography Blog bio picture
  • My name is Bonnie Berry and that's me on the right. This is my new blog. You can see my old blog here. I am an on-location Austin photographer and specialize in children and family portraits and wedding photography. I love books, movies, coffee, garage sales, great conversation, uncontrollable laughter, really good beer, a sunny day with just the right amount of breeze, and the sound of a screen door slamming. This is a place where I share both my professional and personal photographs as well as my thoughts and words. Feel free to contact me at thelazygirl{dot}com. Also, if you want more information on my philosophy or my pricing head on over to my website. I am available for portrait sessions and weddings in the Austin area and worldwide. I also travel to the San Francisco Bay Area twice a year, so please ask me to add you to my mailing list if you might be interested in a session. Photos of me by Joy Prouty of wildflowersphotos.com.

The Franklins | Austin Family Photographer

I had such a wonderful time with the Franklins and I hope it shows as much as I think it does. Not only are they amazingly good looking, but kind and funny as well. Definitely one of my favorite families.

Figs and Farmer’s Markets | Austin Food Photographer

This week I have been in cooking limbo. Josh has been out of town so there has not been any time to breathe, much less cook. I feel deprived. So instead of cooking dinner or making fig jam from the figs our tree has been giving us, I am going to share these photos of food I have been taking. And the shot of fried egg on pizza was not prepared the way it should have been. When I lived in France pizza always came with a fried egg in the middle and I LOVED it. So the other day I decided to try putting a fried egg on reheated pizza from Saccone’s (best pizza in Austin) and it wasn’t half bad. And our new ice cream maker made some yummy strawberry ice cream too (pictured below). I have been obsessed with going to farmer’s markets, which is great except I keep buying too much food.

Lillia and Jasper II | Austin Children’s Photographer

As promised here is the second post on my shoot with Lillia and Jasper.

Beginnings | Austin Birth Photographer

I had the amazing fortune to photograph my very first birth today. What an AMAZING experience it was. I am too tired to go into detail (and I didn’t even have a baby : ) but I will later. A huge thanks to Dan and Kristen for trusting me with such an important job and to Sara the best doula ever and her mom Linda who picked Ben up from school and watched him so that I could participate in this miracle. Welcome to the world baby Quinn.

Lillia and Jasper on Film | Austin Children’s Photographer

A few weeks ago I went out for some fun with Lillia and Jasper and their wonderful mom Amy for a little shoot. I decided to separate it into 2 posts: one film and the other digital. Here is the film post. All images were shot with a Contax 645 on Fuji 400H.
