A New Year

Saturday, January 5th, 2013

A summer off of blogging led into the fall, which brought our family into a new home and move and somehow here it is a new year. I enjoy sharing new photos and am back for the new year. Wishing you and your family the happiest of times and shining moments.

My 2013 goal:  Capture, edit and print our own family moments and keep our life simple!

Desert Botanical Garden

Tuesday, May 15th, 2012

Some people are just so lovely and warm when you meet them for the first time and this is that kind of loving family. I enjoyed my day with this beautiful family. Squeezing in the last days of our warm spring in Arizona, we headed out to the Desert Botanical Garden for some great backgrounds. This adorable family just welcomed their baby girl and strolling around for a preschool aged boy is exactly what we needed to do. This little guy was a blast to be around as he searched for bunnies, sticks and bugs and kept us all quite busy!

A New Beginning

Saturday, December 31st, 2011

What an exciting way to start the new year. A sweet baby boy and a new family. I love the new year, it is just like a baby…full of hope, love, wonder and excitement. This little guy was too sweet and is just a bundle of cuteness.

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

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.

Time for family pictures for this sweet family. A great day chasing two little boys, watching airplanes and rolling in the grass.

Great parents and beautiful boys. Thanks!

Music Heals the Heart

Tuesday, November 30th, 2010

“Music speaks what cannot be expressed,

soothes the mind and gives it rest,

heals the heart and makes it whole,

flows from heaven to the soul.”

An artist with the sound of an angel! This was my favorite.

A Beautiful Day

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

Clouds above and a few sprinkles of rain a few minutes before we arrive, and then the moment the bride walked down the aisle the sun appeared as if it were timed perfectly.  The audience took in a breathtaking backdrop of the mountain and lake as the couple  gazed into each others eyes and smiled the whole time.  The Sleeping Beauty Ranch was a picturesque location and all was beautiful on this wedding day.
