Celebrating the Journey- {Phoenix, AZ Family Photographer}

This handsome gentleman here just turned 90! I am so glad that my girlfriend asked me to capture his family on this special day.

So many people love him and his family is big and bold.  It was really fun to capture these grandkids. Such a fun group.

The celebration had just started when I did my part and I am only too grateful to be able to play a small role in this handsome man's journey to 90.

Desert Evenings are for Family - {Phoenix, AZ Family Photographer}

How gorgeous is this family? I love them so much and am so glad that I got to take their pictures again this year.  We picked Red Mountain and the Salt River as our backdrop and the resulting memories are beautiful.

Mr. J is one of the most handsome and kind boys I have ever met.  He has a gentle spirit and is so willing to help whenever needed.  

Miss K here is one of my girls best friends.  She is sweet and bold with her own fiery personality and I LOVE it.  She is beautiful just like her mother.

Sweet Miss L.  I love this little girl so much.  Last year when I took her pictures I could not evoke a smile, but this year she knows me and we just had the best time.  She is a tender snuggler and such a love.  She makes me smile back at her.

These two are raising an awesome family and they are 2 awesome people.  Life has been so good to them and they are still more in love than ever.  I cannot wait to watch this woman become an IRONMAN next year. 

E Family, I LOVE how these pictures turned out and I hope that you enjoy each one of them.  Hugs to all 5 of you.
