Emma {newborn} session

Just a few weeks ago I photographed Emma's beautiful mama and handsome daddy down at the river.  They were awesome - so clearly in love and excited to meet their sweet baby girl.

Just a few weeks later Miss Emma entered the world and I was so excited to get her and her parents in front of my camera!  She was a fabulous baby who slept so well for me through lots of cute setups. 

I love her sweet chubby cheeks and tons of dark hair!

Arin {maternity} session

I was so thrilled to photograph the amazing Arin last week.  Arin is a local massage therapist and Yoga instructor and these fun and fearless pictures are a perfect representation of her as she carries her third child.  We found a perfect place overlooking Cathedral Rock and Arin got her Yoga on.  We even had a few hikers stop and comment on how fabulous this Yoga Mama was!

Thanks for sharing your bump and your talent with me Arin!

Cristian {newborn} session

A few months ago I photographed Mr Cristian's big sister Julianna when she turned five, and I was super excited to get to photograph this little man when he arrived.  At just 5 days old Cristian was a dream baby and I enjoyed his session so much!

Josiah {milestone} session

Josiah's mom and I have been friends and worked together for a while now.  This isn't the first time he's been in front of my camera but this time it was to celebrate a very special milestone - turning TWO!  Turns out Josiah and I share a birthday (just a FEW years apart!) so I had extra fun taking his pictures!

Happy birthday little dude!  Hope two is awesome!

Chance {maternity} session

I was super honored and excited to do Chance's maternity pictures!  She is the super talented mama behind the camera at Perfect Chance Photography and she does an amazing job capturing births (In fact she photographed my own Quinn's birth just a month ago!)  We had quite the vision for this session and I think we more than achieved it!  Chance was fabulous on the other side of the camera and I am in love with her whole session! 

Can't wait to capture the homebirth of this sweet baby boy very soon!!

 

You are beautiful Chance - inside and out!  Thank you for letting me capture these moments! <3

Wilson {family} session + {engagement}

I've known Jon a long time - and when he called last fall to ask me to do his daughters newborn I was surprised and pleased.  His wife Jenna drove all the way from Winslow with sweet little Landie and we had a fantastic newborn shoot.  Now months later Jon and Jenna are preparing to throw a wedding to renew their vows and celebrate their marriage with friends and family and they were in need of some "engagement" shots for their invites and a few family pictures as well, so we met in Jerome to capture some fun moments with their sweet family.

Gina {nursing/mommy and me} session

Oh Gina - what can I say about this awesome mama?  From her stunning maternity session, to her emotional birth story, to her sweet newborn session, to her fun family at Christmas we have shared a lot of moments in pictures over the past year!  When my friend and fellow photographer Chance, with Perfect Chance Photography, messaged me to tell me that Gina had won a nursing session with her and asked if I wanted to tag along and take my version of the session I said yes! in a heartbeat!  We met Gina at a gem of a location on the Verde that my husband scouted out for me a few months ago and had a wonderful time wading in the water, getting bug bites and even playing some "musical clothes" in order to keep everyone as dry as possible!

The moments we captured are precious, perfect and pure. <3

Welcome Quinn!

My third child arrived this Tuesday evening after a lot of waiting on my part!  She is our longest baked and smallest child at 7lbs 11ozs and 20 inches long - born at 40 weeks and 1 day.  She's a bundle of amazing sweetness who sleeps and nurses like a champ and we are all in love!

I'll be taking some time off to bond with miss Quinn and keep my older two feeling loved too, but I look forward to being back with some fabulous maternity and newborn sessions in June, a homebirth in July and lots more over the summer.  Love to all my fabulous clients!

Tristen {newborn} session

Sweet little Tristen was one of the best sleepers I've ever had!  He slept soundly through his whole session, except for occasionally showing me one sleepy eye!  His adorable big sister was super sweet too and I had a great time photographing this whole family!.

Tiffany

I was one happy photographer when my new camera arrived on my doorstop, but thanks to this crazy pregnancy I've been having I really haven't been doing any sessions.  But I just had to try out my camera, so Tiffany and I headed down to the river early one morning to try it out!  It was FREEZING cold and we only got a few pictures, but I am officially in love with this camera!  Can't wait for my new lens to arrive too!
