It’s finally here! Our favorite time of the year. When temperatures start to drop and the holidays creep up on you faster than you can say pumpkin spice latte. We only do family portraits once a year outside of our wedding photography and we truly love our holiday mini sessions. It’s the perfect opportunity […]

This is Jordan. A bright young lady with a phenomenal sense of humor. The kind that will even throw Doug for a loop. Jordan is more than just our subject in these photos. We’ve watched her grow into the woman she is becoming. Specifically a woman who’s set her heart on the University of Arizona so she can take […]

It’s Zach’s Senior year at McClintock High and in just a few weeks he’ll be crossing the stage, diploma in hand, moving his tassel from one side to the other. You know, the time in everyone’s lives that we feel on top of the world. When we feel the power of our ambitions catapulting us toward […]

The skies were wide open, free of clouds and a perfect shade of something blue. And beneath the awning of the Grayhawk Golf Club, amidst the […]

Delicate flowers rested in her hair, the sun peered through dark, misty clouds, and Darth Vader’s “Imperial March” played by two violinists filled the air. A playful choice for a grooms entrance down the aisle. But nothing could compare to the silence from the guests as Anna made her debut clutching her fathers arm, so ready for that very moment. […]

Cutest family ever. Right here. Alex, Taylor, Greyson, Finely & Stella… You can’t deny it. We loved photographing these smiles for their winter desert family portaits, and they are very familiar with our cameras. We’ve watched them grow over the years through our lens (see more of them here, here and here!) and we’ve grown to […]
