Baby Coming Soon

Monday, September 2nd, 2013

We survived the heat and you would never know summer had come to AZ, with their smiles.

They are patient and easy-going, a great start to becoming parents!

The moment a child is born, the mother is also born.

Field of Dreams

Monday, January 28th, 2013

On the way to meeting with this beautiful senior for her photo shoot, I noticed a cotton field on the side of the road and thought “what a perfect spot.” I completely forgot to mention it to her and we finished the session at the determined location, see post.  So, I called her on the way home and she happily agreed to meet me there, for just a few more. I just love spontaneous moments and people, especially when they work out. This is by far one of my favorite  stops.

Scottsdale Family Portraits

Saturday, January 5th, 2013

A cold, but sunny day at DC Ranch in Scottsdale, Arizona. With parents in town, we spent an enjoyable time capturing the little ones and the whole family. Here are a few favorites from this bunch of cuties.

While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about.

Two Weeks of Sweetness

Thursday, August 4th, 2011

This little sweet guy is a precious blessing.  Wishing your family many mornings of sunshine on the cradle!

“If one feels the love for something grand, something infinite, something that makes one feel aware of God, one need not go no far to find it. I think that I see something deeper, more infinite, more eternal than the ocean in the eyes of a little baby when it wakes in the morning and coos or laughs because it sees the sun shine on its cradle.”  Vincent van Gogh

Senior Time!

Tuesday, January 4th, 2011

Here are some more favorite photographs from an early senior session that I  loved doing. There is a different hope and excitement than the little ones I photograph. It is as if the dreams shift from parents to the child (I should say young adult) and it is inspiring to be a little part of this time in a person’s life.

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.

Live the life you have imagined.

Musikids in Scottsdale

Wednesday, December 29th, 2010

What a fun couple of weeks joining in on Kindermusik classes and capturing those fun moments with mom (grandma, grandpa etc.) and child. I often wish I had some pictures during those times.  A quick sneak peek with more to come!  Thank you Miss Sherry for the fun time.

Without music, life is a journey through a desert.

Holiday time is the best time for the family photo!  Three little girls at a park is super fun and a challenge.  Thanks a bunch!
