Goudeau Photography bio picture

Welcome!

Thank you for visiting my photography blog!

I'm an Austin-based, natural light photographer and I specialize in kids, senior, engagement and family portrait photography. I have always had an itch to be creative. I love what I do because it not only enables me to pursue one of my passions, but it also allows me to meet great people along the way. 

I am married to my beautiful and loving wife Cari, and without her support, none of this would be possible. Together, we are proud owners of an incredibly entertaining miniature schnauzer, Bailey. We look forward to hearing from you and getting to know you better!

Best Regards,

Joel Goudeau

Gabriella’s First Portraits {Austin Portrait Photographer}

My brother Jonathan’s new baby girl was born in March, and they wanted to have some family photos taken. Gabriella is a cute, expressive baby and it was fun to capture her personality in these photos. She’s already starting to favor her big sister, Simone. We traveled to a park near their house to take...
