Emily G., sister of my good friend Rebecca and author of Wild and Crazy Pearl was in Austin last weekend for the very first time.

She ate tacos at Juan in a Million and bought kicks at Allen’s Boots. Click on her gorgeous new Luchese cowboy boots for her wonderful blog about the day:

That evening, she met me and some friends for drinks at House Wine. We then headed over to the Green Mesquite for BBQ before ending the night with Amy’s Ice Cream. Click on the meat plate or our waitress’ tank top to read her blog about the night:

Emily is a wonderful photographer and has an amazing eye as well as an SLR camera that was such a pleasure to use that it finally pushed me over the edge and I’m ready to buy one. To see her photos from Austin and more of her work, take a gander at her Flickr account.
