Portrait: Senior ~ Vincent

Such a neat place that Vincent wanted to take his senior photos at. 

I'd say there was easily over 100 tractors on the property!

Congratulations Vincent!

Lifestyle: Mommy&Me ~ Heather & Max

Fun Mommy&Me session with Heather & Max at the park! 

While filtering through these pictures, I was drawn to how perfectly this session 

represents so many aspects of motherhood.

Allowing them to explore, even though it makes you nervous ...

... chasing after them ...

 ... facing your claustrophobia fear because your they want to go 

down the slide while sitting on your lap ...

... helping them overcome obstacles ...

 ... not hesitating to get down in the sand to play ...

... being there to catch them when they can't make it up the slide ...

... and being the strong & calm through the chaos of their lives.

Motherhood can be exhausting, but is so worth it for moments like these ...

Lifestyle: Mommy&Me ~ Kaity, Adi & Karson

Since having Wyatt I have wanted to do Mommy&Me and Daddy&Me sessions that focus 

on children & their relationships with their parents. 

Kaity had contacted me saying the flowers were in bloom along the

 pipeline & if I would take pictures of the kids. I agreed under the condition 

that she too would be photographed. Within about 24 hours of contacting me, 

we were piled in her truck cruising down the pipeline for sunset photos.

Adi the adventurer.

Karson had stumbled into the sandy wash & instead of 

rescuing him [as Kaity & baby wrangler Heather assumed] I plopped

down in the wash with him.

I thought this picture was neat, showing the
different stages of Adi & Karson. 

Ultimate Mommy&Me photo! 

Events: Caitlynn ~ Quinceanera

Caitylnn's celebration was the first event I've photographed & the

first Quinceanera I've attended. That being said, I was nervous leading

up to the event causing me to loose my voice. Thankfully my mom

came from Flagstaff to be my assistant & also became my translator.

These are just a few of the hundreds of beautiful moments throughout the day.

I love behind-the-scenes shots. They are the moments that tend to be 

forgotten due to the hustle & bustle of preparation.

Caitlynn & her Court

Fun masquerade-themed decorations!

The exchanging of the shoes.

Such a beautiful father-daughter moment!

Dancing continued at the after party at her home.
