Beautiful Family H {Gilbert, Arizona Photographer}

Sorry to all of you who have faithfully come back to my blog over and over and still there is no new pictures.  I’ve been swamped and I never thought I would be so busy that I didn’t have time to blog.  YIKES!  So, technically this isn’t a sneak peek, but I wanted to share this family’s pictures.

They were so much fun and easy to work with.  The two little ones by the end had had it, but we were able to score a beautiful big family picture that I adore.  I went to Hygiene school with one of the girls in the family and it was so great to be able to meet up and see her again!

ps. the contest winner will be announced soon and a new contest will begin!  Keep checking back and as always leave me a comment…it brightens my day! :)

The D Family {Mesa, Arizona Photographer}

Okay, so I’m wayyyy behind!  The Winter/Fall gave me and my daughter a BIG welcome by supplying us with a flu/cold that most definitely isn’t 24 hours!!!   I’m just now able to function enough to do what I can to catch up.  An ER visit was almost a must for me, but I was able to push through it and here I am still trying to stay afloat!  I’ve had to rejuggle so many sessions, thank goodness for wonderful understanding clients!  Boo on you flu season!  Here is a sneak peek that I know Mom is super excited to see!

So, this session was supposed to be held in this gorgeous field that I had specifically scouted out for this particular family….well, when we got there on there session day, someone decided they needed to mow down the entire field leaving only the brownest dirt and trees.  CRAP!!!  So, we improvised and it turned out gorgeous!  I love the fall feel to these.  Of course this gorgeous family can outshine any background I put them in!   Love you guys!

 

PS. Remember to Enter the contest a post down from this one!

Little Tinkerbell {Chandler, Arizona Photographer}

I am fully into the Christmas season and trying so hard to keep my head afloat.  I love this time of year working with past and new clients.

For those of you who don’t follow me on facebook here are some recent pictures that I haven’t had a chance to post here.  We went out on a location scout and I LOVE this place.  The lighting was beautiful and so was “Tinkerbell” :)

And the Contest Winner is……

So, I spent a LONG time going through all the comments and making sure everyone got the right amount of entries.  I then cut up the names in little strips and had my daughter pull out the name.  I must say that I was very excited to see who wins.  My heart was racing as my daughter reached in to pull out the winner. 

This was so much fun!  So much in fact that I have decided to hold a contest every month for the next year.  It won’t always be for the same thing, so keep checking back.  I’m in the workings to get you all some amazing gifts to win!  So cool in fact that I’m going to have a hard time giving it up.

So I announce the winner….

 

Getting ready to pull out the name.  I think she had as much fun as I did! :)

Baby B {Gilbert, Arizona Photographer}

With the launch of my new and exciting look and business, I haven’t been able to post as many sessions as I would love…but here is one that had to be posted.  She was only 4 days old and was my easiest newborn session by far.  She slept almost the entire time and let me put her in so many cute poses.  We had such a wonderful time!  Are you baby hungry?

She’s growing up! {Gilbert, Arizona Photographer}

It’s a bittersweet moment when you send your child off to school for the first time and watch them walk away into a new and exciting adventure.  My daughter is in her last year of preschool.  I am savoring every moment of this year before I have to send her to Kindergarten.  As a read the blogs of other fellow Moms who are sending their kids off to Kindergarten for the first time, it makes me excited, anxious and scared all at the same time to think of the fact that I will be on that same path next year.  You Moms out there….any advice? Is it as hard as I’m thinking it will be?

Ashlee is one of my dearest blessings in my life.  She and I do everything together.  I’m so proud of the young lady she is turning into and I know she will excel at whatever she sets her mind to.  I am so grateful for pictures that have captured each and every milestone she has gone through. I hold them close to my heart.

Here she is on her first day of Pre-K.
