Happy 85th Birthday, Bessie

I called a short time ago to wish my grandfather a happy birthday, but he was too tired to pick up the phone. My grandmother told me that he had his head in his hands. It made my heart hurt a little to think how quickly he tires these days. In a few short weeks I’m going to be there sitting next to him. My mother has warned me about how much he is slowing down and that there are changes that I need to prepare myself for. The following images were taken two summers ago. I am so thankful that I dragged myself out of bed that morning to meet him at the barber shop. I know he was just as happy to have me there too. XO

Special request…

These three beautiful children wanted to surprise their mom with a portrait for Mother’s Day. I love how much time and thought they put into this, so that it would stay a secret. Lynn, you are truly one very blessed mama. XO

Cassidy – Boulder Creek High School Senior {part 2}

This is part two of Cassidy’s senior session. I’m really proud of this session because I broke from my usual pattern and tried a few new concepts, such as starting the shoot earlier in the day and choosing the Scottsdale Quarter as my location. Not going to lie; we had a blast. Cassidy was truly a joy to work with and Penny loved her, just take a look for yourself.

Taylor ~ Boulder Creek High School Senior

Taylor’s amazing brown eyes immediately captivated me; they are beyond beautiful and soulful. The eyes are the first visual I notice when meeting with a client. Taylor is preparing to head off to college next fall for pre-med. She has a long list of colleges to choose from and seems ready to move into the next chapter of her life. You can tell so much about a person’s spirit when photographing them. Taylor’s is warm and caring and I know that she is destined for greatness and that she will give all that she has to helping others. Best of luck!
