Let’s be honest… waking up early on a winter, weekend to have someone take photos of you doesn’t sound fun to any of them. But the Bansal family was up for it and they totally rocked it too! :) I had such a great time with this bunch! There is something about families of four […]

This sweet family just recently moved to Arizona from Idaho, so for their family photos, they wanted to take photos in the desert since it’s not their normal atmosphere. We had a lovely time exploring this desert spot early in the morning during the fall. Micah did such a great job for being such a […]

I kind of love Christmas tree lot sessions! I’m sure I’d love Christmas tree farm sessions even more, but in Phoenix, we don’t have those, we just have the lots where they bring the trees that came from the tree farms, haha. And that’s good enough for me! ;) So when the Gilman family suggested […]

If you’ve ever raised a teenager… or been a teenager ;) then I’m sure you know how hard it is to convince them to wake up early on a weekend day over Thanksgiving break. Haha. But these amazing parents, also have amazing kids, and they all showed up on a freezing (well, 45 degrees, so […]

I met the Sullivan family at their home, on another cloudy, fall day! It’s fun for me when families choose to invite me into their home to take photos around the property, and that’s what we did for this shoot! I think it also helps the kids (and adults) feel a little more natural and […]

I always forget about how much I love this adorable little space in downtown Phoenix until someone decides they want to have their shoot there and then I fall in love with it all over again! I loved exploring Heritage Square with the Thomas family! The outfit colors they chose were so bright and they […]

I’ve loved watching this sweet family grow over the years, when I first took photos of them, there was only three! And now they are just as sweet and beautiful as a growing family of four! We met at the train park in Scottsdale on a cloudy day, since we’ve been having a lot of […]

I’ve attended an amazing photography conference called SHOWIT United the past two years. I’d highly recommend it to any photographers who want to meet encouraging creatives in the industry and be inspired! My second year attending, I had the opportunity to lead a styled shoot for some of the attendees! It was such a fun experience […]

Fall mini sessions only happen once a year, in the fall, obviously. ;) I occasionally do Spring mini sessions too, but those aren’t guaranteed. I love being able to offer these mini sessions during the fall season for families who only want a few photos instead of a full session. I spent the afternoon at […]

It’s always fun when someone asks me to photograph a cake smash for their baby, because you never know how the baby will react to grabbing cake, eating it and being allowed to make a mess. And still to this day, all the babies I’ve photographed smashing a cake usually just end up looking a […]
