Best Friends – Maggie & Dakota [Portraits]

May 23rd, 2010

Well we braved the wind for this one, and I’m so glad we did! I just love the movement in the hair! Maggie and Dakota had these pictures done to celebrate their 8th grade graduation! Adorable right! It was such a fun shoot; thank you to Emily for assisting!

Kelli Golden {Senior}

May 11th, 2010

Ok so not only is Kelli beautiful but she is graduating with her high school diploma as scheduled AND her College Associates Degree at the same time! Oh and did I forget to mention she is also in flight school. This girl does it all! I have had the pleasure of getting to know Kelli through Irish Dance at the Celtic Dance Academy and she has even assisted me on a couple shoots! Thanks Kelli! I had so much fun photographing her senior pics; what a neat experience to photograph the plane she flies! So cool!

The Johnsons {Maternity}

There is nothing more beautiful than a glowing mama to be! Sara and Jerry were so fun to photograph, their love for each other and there baby boy is unmistakable and I felt blessed for the opportunity to capture it!

The Coles {Family}

April 26th, 2010

I had so much fun on this family shoot! Not only are they gorgeous but they are also hilarious! I was laughing the whole time; I hope they had as much fun as I did! As you can see I simply could not even come close to narrowing down to my top ten on this one so enjoy!

Ezra McCoy {Newborn}

April 4th, 2010

First I have to say, how much do you love his name! Adorable right! At the jealousy of our friends who are having to wait a little longer to meet the handsome boy, I was so lucky to meet and photograph him at only 12 days old! Congratulations Chantae & Karl, he is simply gorgeous!

Happy Easter!

Joy Multiplied!

It was a little crazy, there was a lot of improvising and I couldn’t have been more excited and happy to capture it all!

Zoe – 1st Year Portraits {Kids}

March 23rd, 2010

I had the great pleasure of photographing this adorable little princess! She was so sweet and bubbly and LOVED the camera as you can see! She did exceptionally well the whole shoot, until the very end when she had no reservation in telling us she was done! Regular clothes and a pink puppy later she was all snuggly and ready for a nap! I usually have a one week turn around but these were just so cute I couldn’t get them ready fast enough! Enjoy!

The Pullins {Family}

March 10th, 2010

The Pullins were the lucky winners of my location giveaway a few months back! During that time I was told about this AMAZING location: Goldfield Ghost Town in Goldfield, Arizona! It may have taken us an hour to get there but it was well worth it as you can see! I hope to photograph there again soon…any takers!!

Evan Joseph {Newborn}

March 5th, 2010

This has to be my favorite newborn session to date! Such a handsome little (and I mean little) sweetie! He was a natural at posing for the camera…aka slept really well during his shoot! I could have photographed him all day and look forward to future shoots as he grows! Congratulations again T’liese & Joe!
