As I have been doing more and more portrait sessions, I have to admit that photography “the hobby” has become more and more like a job. I’ve been picking up my D700 less and less and turning to the point and shoot or cell phone to take shots when hanging out with the fam. I [...]

A couple weeks ago, I had the privilege to do a session with a favorite family of mine. I’ve known Liberty for quite some time now. Our friendship has grown over the years and I’ve since watched her get married and recently welcome a new little man into her family–Bennett. At this time, Bennett was [...]

This weekend I had the honor of photographing a photographer friend of mine, Courtney, with her hubby and puppy, Ryan and Molly. They were adorable and their pics came out adorable too! I love doing sessions with babies and kids, but it’s refreshing to be able to do portraits for adults. They sit still… listen… [...]

I had been waiting for little Olivia’s arrival since I had completed her mom’s maternity/family session a few months earlier. I was so excited when she arrived because it had been a while since I had shot a newborn (not including my own!). She was adorable. She was awake almost the whole time, but thanks [...]

I was super excited to be asked to do Crystal’s maternity session. She’s a beautiful person, inside and out, and I couldn’t wait to capture her second pregnancy in photos. We decided on the Scottsdale Civic Center because she wanted green. It was my first time shooting there, so I was pretty excited. Unfortunately, they [...]

This weekend I was invited to do a photo shoot for an old high school friend of mine. Being in town for a girls weekend, celebrating her mom’s 60th birthday, she wanted to get some photos taken of the girls: her mom, her sister and herself. She picked the Montelucia Resort up in Scottsdale. The [...]

Little Brea. I had the privilege of photographing this cutie two weeks after she was born. She’s about 4 weeks younger than Katelyn, so it was fun to get my hands on another little baby. Brea was really awake for the entire session–which made things challenging–but we worked through it were able to get some [...]

One of the many perks of having a new baby in the house is having a brand new human to torture with all of my photography needs! It’s so fun to be able to sit at home and do little shoots with my new little Katelyn. These photos are from her 2 week photo shoot. [...]

This week I was lucky to be invited to photograph new baby girl, Gwen. This little one was a joy to photograph. She smiled a lot in her sleep and her mom had lots of cute outfits and hats to put her in. I learned a lot about lighting in this shoot. One side of [...]

Just shortly after finishing Kiernan’s photos, I was lucky enough to get to take 2 week old Henry Alm’s photos. He’s incredibly cute and sweet and let me tell you, there is definitely a difference between photographing a 3 week old and a 2 week old. A big one. Mom and I had some fun [...]
