Kayla {fantasy} Session
My sweet niece Kayla visited a few weeks ago and we had to go out and capture her inner diva in this fairy-tale inspired session. It was raining, but she didn't let the rain dampen a bit of her drama!
Krintin {maternity} Session
I met up with this sweet couple just before Christmas to take some maternity photos in the chilly December weather! They were so happy and excited for their first little one to join them! She was born last week and she is as cute as can be! Her newborn session was amazing and I can't wait to share it too!

"2/52 "Emotion" ~Uplifted~

Annelise {Senior} Session
Annelise is my husbands little sister and she's been a part of my life since she was barely older than my son, so she's basically my little sister at this point too. ;) In the years since we moved from Missouri it seems like she's magically become an adult, but still funny, smart and softball obsessed!
I'd been hoping I'd get to take Annie's senior photos for years now, but we couldn't swing the trip home to Missouri this fall. So last Sunday imagine my surprise when I got a voice mail from my father-in-law wanting to book a senior session for his daughter, Annelise. Turns out while he WAS trying to be funny, he also had a week off and by the end of the day Sunday we'd gotten tickets booked for Annelise and my mother and father-in-law to come out to visit! Annie and I had a great time planning and executing her senior photos over the course of two evenings and I'm so pleased with the results and proud of what a beautiful young woman Annelise has grown up to be!

Kara {Maternity} Session
I met the beautiful Kara in this stunning location for some maternity photos. We had a great time and captured some lovely portraits!
Tianna and Fiona {mama and me} Session
Tianna contacted me about wanting to schedule a session to commemorate her nursing relationship with sweet little Fiona. They conquered many obstacles to reach the place they are in now and I was thrilled to help document it. Fiona ended up not being very interested in nursing at out session but we still captured some sweet mama and me moments!
Heidi {Senior} Session
I don't do a lot of Senior sessions but every time I do one I wish I did more! Heidi was so much fun to work with - we hiked all over Jerome, Arizona and even down to the Verde River at the end and got so many beautiful images!
Courtney {Maternity} Session
Courtney was so sweet and it was clear she was going to be a great mama! I enjoyed meeting her and capturing these sweet moments.
Valencia Family
Just before I left Arizona I met this beautiful family out on the red rocks for a sweet family/maternity session. Jen was my AMAZING doula with Quinn's birth and I was thrilled to capture her family and her pregnancy. She hadn't told many people she was expecting yet, so we both enjoyed the excitement and surprise her sneak peak generated!
Wishing you the most amazing birth Jen!
