my inspiration

I have been following the work of Kelley Ryden for the past few years. She is a true icon in the world of newborn photography. From her amazing newborn posing, to her flawless editing, I admire every aspect of her work. This past weekend, I had the privilege of attending one of her baby posing classes in her hometown of Omaha, Nebraska. I, along with fourteen other photographers, experienced first hand, the amazing ability and precise technicality of both Kelley Ryden and her sister, Tracy Raver. It was an experience I will never forget!

Here are a few images that I captured during the workshop!

Kamila's Urban Shoot

Next month, we will be shooting the 15th birthday celebration of Kamila. She is one of the sweetest, and coolest teenagers you will ever meet. Last week, we took her out for an urban shoot. She was such an amazing sport. Let's just say we had to traverse through some treacherous terrain to get these shots..and she did it in designer sandals and heels!

Here are some of my favorites..

Otis & Sally

This was a very special wedding for us. Especially me. This was the wedding of my little sister Sally. It was very difficult for me to shoot this wedding because I was emotionally attached. It was hard shooting through the blurry view finder because of watery eyes. I almost broke down during the father and daughter dance. All I could think about is my little Bella getting married. I am excited to have gained a little brother in all this. Otis is a good man and I am sure he will be a great husband to my sister and a great father to their children. Here are a few images of their wedding day.

Sally's Bridals...

We shot the amazing wedding of Otis and Sally this past weekend. But before we post images from their special day, we want to share a few of Sally's bridals with you.

She really loved the rustic feel found within some of our images, so we took her to some of our favorite rustic locales. Here are some of my favorites...







and here is her absolute favorite! (mine too!)

Gorgeous mommy-to-be...

We've had lots of bellies and babies come through our studio these past couple of weeks and we wanted to share one of our latest maternity sessions with you. Meet Lyra and David. They are truly one of the sweetest couples you will ever meet. I had an amazing time photographing their excitement, happiness and love they share for their soon-to-arrive bundle of joy. (We really have the most wonderful clients in the world!) We started off in the studio and then went outdoors for a little colorful fun. Here are some of my favorites!

meant the world to me...

Meet the Anderson family! I was so humbled when they contacted me to photograph their newest bundle of joy, Owen. Not only because this would be their second session with me, but because they were willing to drive all the way from Houston down to the valley just for the session. It really meant the world to me. And I hope that the moments we captured that Sunday morning will be cherished by their family for a lifetime. Here are a few sweet moments from their session. Enjoy...
