This was my first photo shoot after spending 5 days in the hospital last month for a spontaneous procedure that I needed done. I will give you the short version of how my hospital stay came about. I was in the worse pain of my life, went to the emergency room, was admitted to the […]

I love family sessions! All kinds of them! But it’s extra nice when I have a family that is as easy going as this one! We took some classic, posed portraits but then we did quite a few shots of them just having around in lounge chairs too! They were just making the most out […]

Towards the end of May, we’re sometimes in the 100 degree days already and almost always in the 90’s. It’s not so fun to shoot in those temperatures, but since this is where I live, I make the most of it. But, on this day we ended up having beautiful weather, beautiful… but extra windy. […]

It is so special for me to have the opportunity to continue capturing a family through the years and watch them grow together. I can’t even remember how many shoots I’ve done for this family off the top of my head, because there have been so many. I’ve been able to capture their Christmas photos […]

I’ve known Isabelle and Penelope’s mom, Alex, since high school and I recently reconnected with her at an event where one of my sessions was up for bid in the silent auction! When she told about her family’s ranch in a small town outside of Sedona, I knew I was going to love shooting there […]

I’ve known Christine and Matt since high school, they were in my sister’s grade but Matt had a sister that was in my grade. Did you follow that? Because I realize how that sounded all over the place. Haha. I’ve had the chance to photograph this crew along with more of their family when I’ve […]

My sister and I spent every summer of our childhood on a Disneyland vacation! There are so many memories I cherish and the photos we have from those times are so precious to us! So, to be able to go to Disneyland with my sister, her husband and my first ever nephew, was such a […]

I’ve done a few shoots at this location, but this was my first time doing a family session here. I’m so fond of this spot, it’s right off the highway, about halfway to Sedona from Phoenix. It’s a rest stop and probably doesn’t look like much to people who aren’t constantly seeking out the beauty […]

Oh my goodness, this family was SO much fun!! The whole time they had smiles on their faces, even when the camera wasn’t pointed at them! They were making jokes with each other, being playful and had the absolute best attitudes! Usually I do what I can to get a few photos of people laughing, […]

I had the chance to take maternity photos of Ally while Teddy was still in her belly at this same location! So it was so much fun, to not only meet that adorable baby boy, but to photograph their growing family in this same spot! This family is so sweet, talented and beautiful!! And Isla […]
