Delivery Day! Packed up these goodies yesterday and dropped them off to my client today. The photos on the left are part of a wall collage. It's one of my favorite ways to display photos in a smaller area. It comes with easy instructions, hanging hardware, and a paper grid to make the spacing perfect. It's SO easy to set up. Such a cute photo session with the 3 generations. It makes me happy to know it will be up on their wall.

You can tell this guy's got the dad jokes! 😂 Working on photos from a recent family session, and this picture cracked me up. Sometimes an outtake ends up being a keeper.

Remember this gorgeous gal from a few weeks ago? Check our more from her Senior session at St. Mary's.

Alexa wanted her Senior photos to be somewhere like a cathedral. We don't have a lot of gothic architecture here in Phoenix so when she suggested St. Mary's Basilica, I thought that was a great idea. The scrollwork door caught our eye immediately. We loved that as a backdrop so we started there. The...

You guys. This weather lately. It's cloudy. It's sunny. It's rainy. All within 30 minutes. It's been an interesting couple weeks for shooting. 🥴

Since it's so beautiful out today I'm sharing this sunny photo from session that almost got cancelled due to the rain. These siblings wanted to get pictures done for their mama. 🥰

Olga is up on the blog! 💙 This was a headshot session at Desert Breeze Park a few weeks ago. I love her curls and her blue, blue eyes. Check out a little more from this shoot here:

When I first considered doing headshots I just thought of them as the plain, neutral, solid color background that you think of with corporate headshots. I have since discovered the beauty of outdoor headshots. I like the uniform cleanness of the traditional studio headshot. It looks classy and profe...

Location Scouting - Downtown Mesa

I shoot here a lot. 📷 It's one of my favorite locations because it has so much to offer, but I tend to stick to the same general area. I wanted to explore a bit more so I asked one of my Seniors from earlier this year to model for me while I location scouted. Here are a few spots that will be added to my Downtown Mesa favorites: bubbles, murals, cool bricks, and I love a good alley. What's your favorite spot in Downtown Mesa?

Carly & Mark are up on the blog! I shared a sneak peek of this cute couple last month. Check out the blog to see more photos from their session at Tumbleweed Ranch.

This cute couple told me they were high school sweethearts. I always think it's so sweet when people end up with their first love. We visited Tumbleweed Ranch for our couple's session because they liked some of the trees they'd seen in other photos. Well, we all found out that in February those tree...

I closed out February with this awesome couple. I can't believe I didn't sneak peek this one. I LOVED this photo shoot. They were so freakin' cute. They were so genuinely into each other and fun and cool. It made my job super easy. Keep an eye out for the blog to see more from this session.
