2010 Short & Sweet Mini Sessions ~ Sneak Peek

Downtown.

Since I'm still playing catch up, here are a few images from Downtown. 

My brother loves to be in front of the camera so we went out to do some headshots in Downtown Mesa for his acting portfolio but we got distracted by his sweet girlfriend and decided to do some pictures of them together. I love the lighting we caught that day.  



A friend of mine put together a photo shoot for an assignment that she had for her class, it was a great time just shooting for fun in downtown Gilbert. I think I was talking to much  because I didn't take very many shots, here are the one's I did get. 
Thank you to my friends Amanda and Oscar who filled in as models, very, very last minute. 

MINE.

Seems like I'm always photographing everyone else, but these are finally MINE.  It really is very rare for me to get these 3 all together since they would rather run around and explore but I was able to get them to sit for a few pictures. I love this location by the river, you would never expect it to be so green in the desert.


I also got a few of my beautiful sister and her boyfriend who came along for the fun!

Twenty-Ten High school seniors!

As summer comes to an end and kids are getting ready to go back to school I've realized I've slacked and have many session to blog from the summer, I also have to blame facebook. It's so much easier to post on Facebook but I promise this week is going to be dedicated to my blog...hopefully I still have some viewers out there....

Congrats to Miss "S" and Miss "A", who graduated this past May! 
Have I mentioned how much I love to photograph high school girls?  Love everything about it, from the trunks full of clothes, the primping, the laughter, the will to do just about anything....love it, to be a H.S. senior again...........

Miss "T" 2010 High School Graduate, Gilbert, AZ

Congrats to another 2010 High School Graduate! Did I ever tell you how much I love H.S. Seniors?? I love their energy, their willingness to do just about anything, and their STYLE. I must say Miss "T" holds the title for STYLE, here are just a few looks from her session!

all mine.

Miss "A" ~ 2010 Graduate, Congrats! ~ A Sneak Peek

3rd x's a charm......thank you for this beautiful day.

Miss "K" is another 2010 High School Graduate that I had the pleasure of shooting on a
beautiful sunny day. We had to schedule her session 3 times due to rain, but we finally got it done and the day couldn't have been more perfect! I had a great time with Miss "K", she has a great personality, beautiful eyes and contagious smile :)

Miss "A" ~ 2010 Graduate

Congrats to Miss "A" who will be graduating this May!! A Sneak peek for you.....

ADORABLE.

Out with the old, in with the new.

Here are a few of my last images from 2009. The end of the year got a little chaotic, so as usual I am behind on posting. One of my NY resolutions for 2010 will to be a better blogger (fingers crossed) as well as working on some changes for my photography business. Thank you to my 2009 clients, you keep me motivated to continue doing what I love and I hope to see you again in 2010!

A couple Holiday Mini Session Sneak Peeks..........

A beautiful baby belly....................

"M" is one of my closest friends, maybe too close.....you could say we hang out too much together, maybe we drank the same water, or maybe God just wanted to give us each one more little blessing.
We were in SHOCK, I was pregnant! A few months later we were in SHOCK again, "M" was pregnant (somehow I got the blame?)! I think the SHOCK has subsided and now we are filled with excitement to meet her little blessing.
"M" I am really glad we were able to go through this adventure together, but this part is just about over so the real "fun" can begin.
Here are some of my favorites of that beautiful baby belly......................

Just a little sneak peek.........................

HOLIDAY MINI SESSIONS 2009

It’s that time of year again…hot chocolate and mittens, Christmas trees and twinkling lights, shopping lists and frantic nights….so get your Holiday Portraits out of the way before the hustle and bustle of life takes over:) Another year will have come and gone and you’ll wish you would have taken the time to capture this moment.

Our newest addition..........John Ryan

It's been a while since I last posted due to the Az heat and this little guy that was cooking in the oven. Our little John Ryan is now here and growing too fast! We are enjoying every second of him and I just wish we could stop time...........

3 weeks old

Look who made the cover.............

I was sooooo excited when I was contacted about this photo of Grace by TTW, TOT TRENDS WEEKLY MAGAZINE, not just because it was of my daughter but because some of the photographers that have inspired me have had their images grace the cover of this online publication :) If you have little ones, you should check out their site for adorable, unique, trendy kid stuff at http://www.tottrendsweekly.com/
