    I think that some of the best childhood memories come from doing these simple activities. These images have such a wonderfully nostalgic feel to them. Your family photography is always beautiful and I love the documentary style of this series. Beautiful.ReplyCancel

Phoenix, Arizona Family Photographer

Family photography on top of the mountian at the hole in the rock near Scottsdale AZ

This fun family photography session was set at one of my favorite and most requested locations in the Phoenix area.  I love the red rock and the beautiful desert sunsets that served as the backdrop for this fun loving family of 5.  This spot does require a moderate amount of hiking, but we all made it...

Phoenix Area Children’s Photographer- Pullback location of the Arizona Wildflowers

Colorful children's photo in Phoneix with AZ wildflowers 85044 85048

A few weeks back it was pretty cloudy and overcast in Phoenix, which is rare here in the desert. Usually it’s bright and sunny day after day.  That can be difficult to work with as a natural light photographer.  I knew however, that the forecast called for dreary days several days in a row, so...

    Absolutely beautiful-I love the pull back shot to show how you’re able to take your vision and create truly stunning photographs!ReplyCancel

  • DeannaMarch 21, 2015 - 6:14 am

    So true about cloudy days, most people think the shoot is ruined because of a few clouds. On the contrary, photographers do a happy dance! These are just gorgeous! I love how you showed a pull back of the area. You don’t need much to take beautiful pictures if you have the artistic eye, which you clearly do. You make Phoenix look like a magical wonderland. Beautiful!ReplyCancel

Phoenix Arizona Cake Smash Photography in Chandler at Desert Breeze Park

I have photographed this sweet little boy since he was a newborn and it was a joy to be able to take his picture when he smashed his one year old birthday cake!  He has always been quick to smile, laugh and giggle from the time he was three months old.  At his 10 month...
