I had a blast with the Nitka family! We hiked up a mountain (Kristen in heels), and Katelyn in Ballet shoes, which she said were great for hiking. I may or may not have gotten us lost…. But regardless, it was an amazingly beautiful day and I am just in love with these 2 little angels that I could photograph all day everyday! Here are some of my favorites!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My most favorite thing to photograph is people in their environments….and adorable children! So basically I was in heaven for this shoot. This was a last minute shoot (scheduled the day before) because their oldest son flew into town for a day to see his new baby sister! Such an amazing family with so much love filling their home. I could’ve spent the entire day with them. Here are a bunch of my favorites!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To one of my favorite couples Aarynn and Eric: Thank you for choosing us to be a part of your beautiful day!

Unconditional, overflowing love, emotion and loads and loads of belly laughter was what this wedding day was filled with! Aarynn and Eric’s playful relationship was so heartwarming to witness. Aarynn’s family kept everyone laughing the entire time. I love seeing families share such a close and loving dynamic. I wish you two lifetimes of happiness together and I wish you could get married a hundred more times!

Thank you to my bestie Kelly Rashka for being part of my team. You always make everything in my world shine brighter:)

This was my first time photographing the Straak family, but I hope they hire me thousands of more times! They’re getting ready to welcome (mystery) baby number 3 pretty much anytime now! My guess is girl….so we shall see how fine tuned my intuitions are these days. Sawyer and I just get each other. He had to stop the shoot and make his momma look at the moon by turning her face with his hands. Pretty much what I do to everybody. And Mila!!!! She won my heart with her adorable smile and pigtails! Here are some of my favorites, which were hard to narrow down.

Sweet little Paul got baptized at St. Thomas the Apostle church over New Years weekend. It was a beautiful event in a beautiful church. Some tears were shed during photos, but not one during the ceremony! He’s such a doll and loved being a part of this special day!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Baby Gavin was the BEST! He slept the whole time AND smiled at me a bunch of times! His big brother Grayson was absolutely amazing! Most siblings his age are not as cooperative. Their daddy is a surgeon so we had to add a few with the stethoscope! Here are some of my favorites.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This was one of my favorite shoots ever. Gates Pass was just breathtaking and so was Miss Kylen! I have always loved dancing and I found out Kylen actually goes to the same studio that I used to dance at! Dancing in point shoes on the mountain is like trying to walk in heels on a mountain and she killed it! So in love with this shoot!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These girls! I just adore them! Emsley is definitely my sprit animal. She’s got the posing and the silly faces down. It was a BEAUTIFUL day up on Mt. Lemmon…a little chilly at first, but we did jacket breaks in between shots. I give Heather the gold medal for hiking around in those cute heels! I had a hard time only picking a few so…..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

James is going to be graduating soon! He brought his baby (his truck) with him to the shoot. He built this truck himself and it’s still a work in progress. He will stay in the car business after high school, continuing to restore vehicles. I have no doubt he’ll be a master!
