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, kicking up dust and takin’ names. I can’t imagine what life...

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!...
In love with LOVE {Phoenix Child and Family Photography}
I woke up this morning positively giddy. Excited. Happy. Lighthearted. Seriously, I am walking around the house giggling at random moments. Tomorrow I have the absolute privileged of photographing a wedding between two people with an amazing story. I normally do not prefer to do weddings. Mostly because of the season of life that I...
Michelle’s Baby Ella Belly
My friend Michelle came by a few days before her C-Section was scheduled to take a few shots of her Baby belly. She had her 2 sons with her and we had a sweet morning getting some quick shots of her last few days of pregnancy. The boys were so sweet! Kissing her belly and...
Have you heard about the Culture Pass?
Summer is here and with it are three digit temperatures. Kids are just about out of school, the economy is not at its best. What is a family to do to have some fun, get out of the heat and not spend a bucket load of money?

Great teaching, people and location….but let’s not forget the SCONES!
Last weekend, my husband and I headed up to Pinetop for a marriage retreat hosted by our church. We had such a great time! The teaching was wonderful and led by three very inspiring couples. I loved hearing their stories and how God has worked in their lives and transformed their marriages. We stayed at Kohl’s Ranch...

If you give a mom a muffin, she’ll want a cup...
Bucket Full of Love
Last night my kids and I spent the evening baking and decorating cupcakes, making heart shaped brownies and pink jell-o jigglers. My kids were so excited for their day today. All three of them are still in grade school. Still in those magical days were you get to spend the day decked out in red...
