giggley girls!!

I just love sisterly love! I had two sisters myself so I know how much fun it can be .. and sometimes not so fun! but this day it was great, we got some great smiles and great laughs, and this is the reasons I became a photographer :)

Reynolds Family

I spent Thursday afternoon with the cutest family at the Mesa Arts Center. They were so fun all running around wild chasing each other, laughing, and just being kids :0) I love family sessions! (do I say that after every post??!!) I see this family every Sunday at church but have never really gotten to know most of them, so it was great to get to spend some time with everybody together. There are so many different poses and places, I just couldn't decide which ones to post, so I will probably have to add a few more in the next couple day!! Thanks you guys, it was awesome getting to share this fun with you :)

Just a couple more... ;)

Conner's children are so adorable, we had a great time... and I will get to do another session with them out at their house for some more fun, relaxed family time :) Can't wait!

Conner and Alyssa

Yep, this is the so cute family that I talked about earlier! How fun were they?! I love family sessions and I especially love family sessions at the temple. There is such an incredible feeling being on the temple grounds and having the opportunity to enjoy it with a family, (my family) makes it so wonderful!



Ivan was such a great little model, I think he loved having his picture taken! And so adorable, I love that smile!
How great is this! Brotherly love :) Awesome!

DISASTER...

....Complete disaster.. and that's putting it mildly... This is what happens when my family tries to get together for family pictures. Yes, I'll admit it, we picked a horrible spot but when you're in Maricopa ... there's not to many "family friendly in a hurry to do pictures" places. So the sun was blasting everyone away, two babies were too tired to even be out there, one had too many toys to distract him, the oldest wouldn't cooperate, Grannie just tried to keep it together as long as she could, my parents.. what can you say, they didn't really help either... So this is the kind of pictures we got. I just look and shake my head and laugh.. and sometimes curse! But it'll do, I guess we'll have to remember family pictures just like this!!!

smiles :o)

This one has to be my very most favorite :) Just the gorgeous smiles that are so natural and playful. I just couldn't decide between the color and black and white... so you can decide!!


And these were just for fun.. we had to settle for some construction tunnels in the end because the grass was just saturated from all the rain. But it was fun and spontaneous! and kinda goofy! But that's why I love photography!

One more...

And probably a couple more tomorrow :) They just keep getting cuter and cuter!! I had to share some more... hopefully you guys like them as much as I do ;)

{tears}....

... tears of JOY and sadness all at the same time. As I sit here going through my pictures of one of my most favorite families in the whole world all I can do is cry and laugh and hope that we will have the opportunity soon to see each other and spend time together like that time we had this week. I spent the last few days at a family reunion and had the absolute pleasure of taking pictures of my cousin and her husband and gorgeous babies :) It was awesome, what a super awesome family :) A photographers dream!! So happy to be together and ofcourse some of the cutest little girls in town... well not my town anymore, but .. soon. hopefully ;) I will miss you guys more than you could know, thank you so much for letting me capture these wonderful memories for your family ... I love all of you :)

yes, yes, more Williams'... I can't help it :)

My sister is like my most bestest friend in the whole world, I just had such a great time following her and her husband around all afternoon!! We laughed so hard and embarrased him so many times! She does the funniest things, I have so many awesome pictures... I just can't decide!!!


Then on the other hand... he's pretty goofy too!!

Williams Family

I has the awesome chance to take my sister and brother in law and their so so so cute little guy to do family pictures yesterday... a friend photographer told me about this new spot that we got to try out and it was tons of fun. Lots of trees and plenty of grass, a great place just hang out and run wild! He had the greatest time playing football... until he threw the ball right over the fence (on purpose too!)
Yep.. there's the ball, right on the other side! Poor kid. We had to leave it there, that fence was a little too rickedy to be climbing over..
But I have tons more pictures, I am only about half way through editing them, so more to come soon :)
