Baby Ender {Phoenix Child and Family Photographer}

My name is Sandi Shipley and I am addicted to baby toes. Seriously. I know it is a problem. I just can’t help myself. And can you blame me?

Love this little one! His itty bitty clothes are still so big on him…

Which leads me to this. Melt me!

Sweet little boy….

Such a big yawn for such...

Happy Birthday Lu! {Phoenix Family and Child Lifestyle Photography}

On Monday my sweet, rambunctious, fun little girl turned 5 years old. Sigh. It feels like just yesterday we were driving her home from the birth center in her too-big newborn outfit. Now she is zipping around the neighborhood on her two wheeler bike, kickingĀ  up dust and takin’ names. I can’t imagine what life...

Life Lessons from 2009 {Phoenix Family and Child Lifestyle Photography}

I have taken off a good month after the busy holiday season and am just getting back into the routine of working again. Kids are all back in school, life has settled down a bit and the glow of the Holiday season has passed. As I was looking through the pictures I have taken this...

Family {Phoenix Family and Child Lifestyle Photography}

Have you ever heard the saying that a cobblers kids have no shoes? Well, I have to admit that I have been pretty bad about not getting my very own Christmas cards out until after the New Year. I take pictures of my kids all year long. All the time, really. It is pretty bad!...

Katy’s Baby Belly {Phoenix Maternity, Newborn, and Child Photography}

Well, I did this backwards! I just posted pictures of baby Sienna and went to link Katy’s maternity pictures to the post. But that’s a little hard to do when you don’t post them! In the craziness of the Holiday season I forgot to post pictures from Katy’s Baby Belly session. Which is amazing really,...

So here you go. A few of my...

Parker, Ben and JoJo {Phoenix Family and Child Photographer}

I have loved spending time with each and every family I have photographed this season! It is fun to watch the tangible loosening up of kids during our time together. Ben, Parker and JoJo were the perfect example of this. By the time we were done they were giggling and having a great time, completely...

Jacks Day Out {Phoenix Child and Family Photographer}

Question: How do you get a vibrant, curious, energetic 2 year old boy to sit still, look at the camera and smile??
Answer: You don’t! You give in to their amazing desire to explore every nook and cranny of their environment. You put on you running shoes, get down on the floor with them and see...

Joel, Misty, Emily and Elijah {Phoenix Child and Family Photographer}

I have been really busy shooting right now and haven’t posted as often as I would like! But here is a peak at another Family session. I love when families let go of having to “Smile” and look at the camera and just give in to playing together. I loved the connection this family has...

Mini Session Q&A {Phoenix Child and Family Photographer}

First of all, I am so touched by the very positive response to the Holiday Mini Sessions! I am down to just a handful of open spots left. I most likely will open up a few more weekday spots, so if that is an option for you let me know. I have received a few...
