Coming Soon

The new website has launched ( still making some changes to the boutique items ) Coming soon though will be the new events site devoted to Childrens Parties, and Bar and Bat Mitzvahs.  This is my little ( ok, not little, actually big ) project for the year..splash3-copy.jpg

Happy New Year!

And now let us welcome the new year full of things that have never been.bhappy-new-year-image.jpg  b545proofs-tra.jpg  My New Years Resolution is to simply make this year what I want it to be. If I want something, to go for it.  I wish you all a wonderful New Year full of love, happiness, and good health. May this year be your best ever! 

Not trying to be a slacker

Sorry for the lack of posts. It has been a crazy busy time right now and I’ve been working hard on getting my new site finished and ready for reveal by the New Year. Hope everyone is having a safe and fabulous holiday season!

Simply enjoying life | Tucson child photographer

Carpe Diem. Seize the day, boys. Make your lives extraordinary. - John Keating, Dead Poets Society ( my favorite movie! )b343proofs.jpg  b358proofs.jpg bollie.jpg  b337proofs.jpg b339proofs.jpg So, I have to share with you something. These images were taken on Friday and Saturday. Friday happens to be the day I attempted to take Dillon on his own photo session. Sure, his session worked but I have to say there is nothing like capturing your kids where they are the most comfortable, at the park, in their backyard, even on the trampoline. I truly believe these are the times you capture your children as they are.  ( This is why I choose to do my sessions on location, to make them fun and enjoyable for your kids and to capture them as they truly are! )

Lights up my life | Tucson child photographer

Oh how his smile lights up my life and warms my heart.bdillon1.jpg bdillon2.jpg I don’t get enough time to capture my big man now that he is in school, and so often he just gives me his fake smile or serious look when I pull out the camera. He does a good serious look but for me I love nothing more than his full blown smile. I took him out Friday, just he and I to finally get some images of him having fun, here are a few, and I’m happy to look at them and know, that’s my Dillon with the big ‘ol happy go lucky smile he always wears. 

“Did you have a bowl of crazy for breakfast???”

Lately I seem to be asking this about Ollie everyday! the kids is nuts and gets into everything! Just yesterday I came out of the kitchen to find that he had made his way into the bathroom and was then running up and down the hall . . . and he had toilet paper in his hands, he was having a grand time unrolling the roll as he ran.b220proofs.jpg 

Thanksgiving fun

Last week we were lucky enough to get to go to Dillon’s school for his Thanksgiving day performance. Seriously it was too cute and fun.  Can you tell if he was happy to see us there? bimg_4058-copy.jpg  I thought this was cute. They all made place mats and wrote what they were thankful for. Some wrote their friends, mom, dad, and I even saw one for kitties. If you check out the blog often you’d know my Dillon loves his country, and loves the american flag. It makes me proud to know he is. It made me smile to go in his class and find what his placemat said, I didn’t care a bit that my name wasn’t on there, he went above that I felt. He was so proud.bimg_4065.jpg 

I Love these two!

“Do you ever just put your arms out and just spin? Well, that’s what love is like; everything inside of you tells you to stop before you fall, but for some reason you just keep going.” - Gillian Owens, Practical Magicb201proofs-copy.jpg b240proofs.jpg b252proofs.jpg  b228proofs-tra.jpg b273proofs.jpg  

I LOVE These two

I’m so lucky to have my sister-in-law and brother-in-law in town, I couldn’t be happier. I had about 5 min the other day to get some images of them before my hubby and youngest did not want to be in the sun any longer.b094proofs-tra.jpg b098proofs-tra.jpg 

I LOVE this spot, and so does he | Tucson children’s photographer

The two little ones and I went on a little journey for “photo spots”.  My dear friend Kadie was kind enough to let me know about this hip, urban location, and we LOVE it! When taking photos of my little ones, they have to be impressed to get a decent photo, and Calvin was all about the red wall! b010proofs.jpg Yep, he’s a happy one! b026proofs-tra.jpg Calvin was VERY conserned that I was going to let Ollie fall of the edge, he had no trust in the fact that I was there and wouldn’t let him fallb030proofs1.jpg  b028proofs1.jpg  b044proofs-tra.jpg
