Springtime was in the air, the weather was warming up outside, and the pure love and joy between these two was undeniable. Niko and Ciara were meant to be together. When you look at the two of them together, pure bliss and happiness is what you see. It is something so magical and so breathtaking, […]

Arizona is not known for snow lets just be honest, let alone a snowy engagement session. Most people hear Arizona and think of 100+ degrees and all desert. Flagstaff, Arizona is definitely one of the hidden gems of this state. Over the holidays, Flagstaff was pounded with a crazy, beautiful snow storm. It definitely reminded […]

Senior Sessions are some of my favorite sessions to be apart of. Senior Sessions are a special time for graduating high schoolers to feel empowered. There are not many times that a young girl or guy will step in front of the camera totally on their own without their mom making them do it for […]

Usery Mountain Park is hands down one of my favorite places to do photography sessions at. That is why I loved this family session at Usery Mountain Park. There is just something so perfect about the lighting, the desert landscape, and hardly any crowds that make it an ideal location. I have found the perfect […]

Family Sessions are slowly becoming one of my favorite things to photograph. Especially when you get to photograph a backyard family session in a place as gorgeous as this backyard was! Backyard Family Sessions can sometimes be a tricky place for lighting, but when they are a sunset session, the lighting opportunity opens up endless […]

When you hear the term backyard desert wedding, immediately your first thought is well that doesn’t sound very romantic. Let me tell you that was far from the case for this beautiful wedding! Crystal and Darrin’s backyard wedding was so picturesque I could not even believe it myself when I looked at the back of […]

I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph Amanda and Cayman’s engagement session at Papago Park this past Saturday. It is finally October, which means the weather is cooling down! And with cooler weather, we start to get beautiful evenings here in Arizona. I honestly do not think I have ever been so excited for the […]
