Well as you can see, this family is adorable. Their little dude Tatum gets me every time. I just want to keep him forever!

Cruz was such a doll. He definitely challenged me during this shoot. He didn’t want to sleep…or at least STAY asleep, and he did NOT like to be naked. He wanted to be bundled up! Im glad I was able to somewhat bargain with him! We also managed to get a few pictures with his big sister, 21 month old Annalise. Congrats Vanessa and Donnie! Your family is adorable!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I’ve known Brandon since elementary school and Stacy was a great friend of one of my best friends in High School. We were school rivals (even though that never meant anything to me!) It’s so awesome that they are married and that they made 2 of the most awesome little men. They are just hilarious and fun. I wish they lived closer!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These kiddos really got me in the Christmas spirit. Do you see these outfits? Holy moly…I can’t take it. Peyton, Parker and Camryn are all ready for Santa and I have a feeling they are at the top of the nice list 🙂

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I remember the first time I met baby Rylee…a teeny-tiny newborn! Now she is growing so big. I love her glowing smile. Toby the pup came along as well and joined in on our fun! Such an adorable family.

 

When I spoke to Dawn on the phone for the first time, I learned that when her and Ryan were dating, they would hang out near the train tracks, place quarters on the tracks and wait for a train to pass and smash the quarters. I knew that we had to take photos near the tracks so I could see this tradition in action! It was very fun! I look forward to their beautiful wedding at Tucson Country Club!

Michelle and Jay hired me a couple weeks before their wedding. When I met with them they mentioned that they both thought they would never get married, but after meeting each other, that thought was out the door! So sweet. They got married at their house in their HUGE backyard, which was awesome….and thanks to mother nature for keeping the rain away! Every time Jay looked at Michelle he just couldn’t help but smile. I love that kind of love! I’m so glad they found each other!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Zoe melts my heart! She just get’s cuter and cuter! She wasn’t really into the picture taking thing, but she had a great time dancing, exploring, kicking dirt, and playing in the weeds! My kinda girl.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love this sweet girl! She is such a little beauty and loves to pose…definitely destined for fame! My little guy Carter is pretty fond of her too! We threw a very UNsuccessful cookie baking party after the shoot!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Joe and Kelly were just beaming about their pregnancy. I could feel their excitement to be parents! Baby Jackson is due in December and I can’t wait to meet him!
