A few months ago, I had the opportunity to collaborate with a local Mesa videographer and asked my friends if they would like a free mini family photography session that we could video!

I'm not the only one obsessed with this Downtown Gilbert location - during family photo season here in Arizona, almost half of my families chose this spot!

Family photo season was busier than I thought it would be, here in Mesa, Arizona! I'm excited to share some of my favorite sessions with you all, starting with my sweet sister-in-law's family.

I think every photographer has a dream client - the one that takes direction, is natural in front of the camera, and dresses well. For this family session in Mesa, Arizona, Justine was that dream client.

I love happy accidents - and this maternity session in Mesa, Arizona, was full of them. We had to cancel last minute because there was a sudden heat wave over the weekend. We rescheduled for the next morning in a different location closer to Lindy's home because it was so early and the morning (and, because, pregnant).

This newborn photography session at Coon Bluff in Mesa, Arizona, is one of those sessions that I look at and think, "did I really take those?!" Taking newborn pictures has to be one of my absolute favorite things to do! I was double excited when my friend Kim asked me to do them outside, with full on natural light, during the golden hour!
