This whole session was one for the books! Last minute we decided to go out into the Arizona Desert with monsoon skies and do a family session for Tanya and her girls- we were literally blown away on top of the mountain by gusts of wind and that sweet smell of rain coming! It has […]

Sweetest Newborn Photos in New Family Home- Tatum’s First Photo’s

Mary + Dan- Engagement Session

There was a TON of growth both professionally, and personally- and honestly it was a time where I found my style and the way I wanted to document these bride and grooms big days. I have always believed that photographs shouldn’t just be posed, but they […]
