100 Years Strong- {Phoenix, AZ Event Photographer}

I recently had the unmistakable pleasure of capturing a Centenarian!  What an incredible opportunity to meet a man who has successfully lived 100 amazing years on this earth.....and he doesn't show any signs of slowing down.

I would like to introduce you to Sal and his son, my friend and fellow triathlete Gary.  Sal is an amazing man, a World War II Veteran and all around nice guy.  You can tell he has lived and left a strong legacy in his life and it was such a privilege to photograph it.

I really enjoyed meeting all of the people that look up to him as patriarch.  There is so much family and so much story wrapped up in this awesome picture.

The party was a perfectly exquisite and joyous occasion filled with all of the people Sal has influenced.  From the tiniest grandchild to the Centenarian himself, you couldn't help but feel surrounded by something great.

Happy Birthday to this incredible man, and Sal........here's to the life you have lived and the years ahead of you!

A Bright Sunshiney Day - {Phoenix, AZ Family Photographer}

Arizona is most definitely the Sunshine State!  As a photographer, I have learned to embrace the sun in all of its beauty, light and glory.  Its tricky and takes some time and planning, but when it works, it is perfect!

This family came to the Valley for vacation and allowed me the chance to photograph them in the sunshine.  It was a simply gorgeous day out at Camelback Mountain.  The desert was alive with beauty.

It was clear to see that Arizona has a special place with this big family and that the memories made here are very worth remembering.  The view was breathtaking and the joy radiating from these people was near tangible.

R Family, thank you so much for letting me capture this special vacation.  Enjoy the memories and please come back to make more!

Like a Fox- {Phoenix, AZ Newborn Photographer}

Oh my goodness!  This blog has been sitting in my drafts for weeks!  I cannot believe I let this little handsome love slip by unblogged!  

This handsome gentleman sat for his photo session a few weeks ago and I had a blast with him.  Mr. T was such a good kid and aside from a few fusses here and there was an amazing picture taker.

This little man's room is all about foxes and he had not 1 but 2 amazing fox outfits compliments of a dear friend.  I was so glad that he was content getting his costumes changed because the pictures came out so perfect and will fit so well in his space.

Babies are so much fun to be around.  They are so fresh and new.  Life hasn't yet really touched them and they are the most content and peaceful beings.  I laid Mr. T in his crib and just thought of all the adventures he is destined to go on.  So much is in store for you little one!

I love how the Lord orchestrates so many of my sessions.  My husband worked with this Daddy back nearly 10 years ago.  Its crazy how our paths have crossed and I am so glad to be able to get to know this family now.  They are special and Miss Stephanie is one of those really good Moms.

Mr. T, welcome to this world!  You are especially special and loved by a great many people.  Adventure and live boldly.  Your mountain is waiting!

Wee Little Dutch Baby - {Arizona Newborn Photographer in Denver, CO}

Well Hello little girl!  We are so very glad you are here!

This family is AMAZING.  Mom and Dad lived abroad for 2 years in Europe and brought home a wee little gift.  It is amazing to see them after so much time apart and I was so thrilled to have the chance to love on little Miss B.

This little lady was simply too perfect for her pictures.  She was an absolute delight and I loved the peace of just quietly capturing her beauty.

This picture below just may be my favorite picture to date.  Everything about it is perfection.

Miss B, you are so loved.  Welcome to this wild and beautiful world!  You have amazing parents and your life is richly blessed!  Love and hugs to you!
