The Karr Family (December 2015)

Ashley was another winner from my contest month! 

I met Ashley, her Mom, her Brother, and her little cutie, Maddi, while I visited Phoenix a couple weeks ago. My sister, Sophia, was my assistant, and we jammed out to Christmas music as we set up a cute little Christmas tree for this Holiday themed session! We had a great time!
(To see some behind the scenes snapshots, visit my Instagram page here.)

Little Miss, Maddi, had a blast, but mostly because she got all the candy canes she could handle! :-)

It was great to meet your family, Ashley! I hope you guys have a wonderful Christmas!

LOOK AT ALL THESE CANDY CANES! What a cutie, right?!

Good looking' bunch! Maddi thought she should share her candy cane with her Mommy and Uncle. :-)

Happy girl with her Uncle and Mommy!

Love these... Momma and her baby are so beautiful.

Another Momma with her grown up kiddos! She was a little apprehensive about taking some photos, but I think she looks great.

Well we HAD to get in the typical Santa hat photo! And little Maddi didn't care to put down her candy canes for anything. Haha!

Pretty and happy! I think she is ready for Christmas!

Maddi and her lovely Grandma.

Bryce Family (November 2015)

Gabriana was another contest winner from my contest month!

I photographed her three adorable kiddos underneath a gorgeous, Tucson sky. They kept me on my toes and kept me moving! Just how I like it! ;-)

This cutie, Aubrianna, just turned one! She seems pretty excited about it. :-)

Bryden is such a handsome guy! And he liked hearing it. ;-)

This quick little man, Kaden, was a tricky one! Had to use some of those photographer ninja skills to get some shots of him! He sure is cute! Watch out for those teenage years Mom & Dad. ;-)

What a sweet pea...

Aww sibling love...

Emily, Andy & Maisy (November 2015)

Emily won a free session during Giveaway month. When she won, she was pregnant, and her husband, Andy, was still serving over seas in Afghanistan. 

NOW, he is home! They have had an exciting week! He is back home now after serving for 7 months, and he met his beautiful baby girl for the first time! Also, I know he and Emily were just beside themselves to see each other again. How awesome is that? 

Glad I could photograph this momentous time in your lives. Thank you for your service Andy! Enjoy your ladies, they are happy to have you back.

Well they just look so great together!

Well, this should probably be an outtake, but it's just so adorable! I put the Santa hat on Maisy, stood back to take her photo, and I got this cute little sad face! Love it...

The Witcher Family (November 2014)

Today I was a ninja. A walking backwards quickly, on her toes, photographer ninja.

I met the Witcher Family today! Bethany and Alvin have 3 beautiful kids. Samantha, who is 5 years old, and two twin boys, Dominic & Braeden, who are 15 months old.

Many of you know that the newly walking kiddos are the MOST fun, and one of the more difficult to photograph. It was a good time! I got in my workout tonight, how about you?

What a good looking family!

Miss Samantha was so cute!

Look at these boys! Love those pouty lips.

This is where my photographer ninja skills came in handy. :-)

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!

Samantha and her Daddy. Love these!

Krista and her Loves (December 2013)

I meet a lot of people doing what I do. I started working with Krista at a veterinary clinic in 2013. It was very clear right away that she was a very sweet and compassionate person and cared deeply for her pets, as well as her patients. If you've ever had the privilege of meeting her, you know she is a lot of fun to be around. She asked me to photograph her and her two boys for the Holidays. I had to jump at that chance!

She has two handsome pit bulls named Tank and Batman. You can't help but fall in love with their squishy faces! Working in a vet clinic, I see a lot of dogs! I have to say that pit bulls, are by FAR one of my top two favorite breeds! (Boxers are my first.. Sssh! Don't tell the pitties!) They are sweet, hilarious and full of energy. I AM that crazy person that will run up to a pit bull owner and ask to pet their cutie.

I know it was a while back Krista, but it was a ton of fun photographing you guys!

These boys were so very interested in their surroundings! I knew I had my work cut out for me when we started out the session and I was jumping around and making noises like a lunatic. Hey! I guess it's pretty similar photographing dogs and children! ;-)   But at least Krista looks great! 

I am sure I embarrassed them... But I couldn't help it!

Awww....

Renee, Chris & Brian (December 2013)

I met Renee in school during our Veterinary Assistant program. I was pretty excited to meet her new guy and his handsome little one, and also I couldn't wait to photograph them! They are clearly a happy bunch.

Nowadays, they are married, and have moved out of AZ. It's a bummer that I haven't seen her in a while, but it's great to see that they have still been doing well.

Miss you Renee!

I love the old buildings in Downtown Tucson. I can never get enough brick! And these guys look great in front of it! ;-)

So little Brian is a cowboy who specializes in protecting the world from Zombies. Oh and he also does not approve of the kissing. Ha!

Look at this cutie! He's making sure to kill the zombies behind me so I am safe while taking his photo.

Sweet...  <3

Well I think someone is bound to be a heart-breaker!

This boy loves his Dad!

Oh did I forget to mention that Brian is also Superman! He's the real deal...

I can never resist a silhouette!
