One of my favorite families :). Justin use to be our pastor at church and I volunteered with Amy in the children’s ministry so we have become so close with them. They’re the kind of Jesus-People that make other people want to be Jesus-People because they so effortlessly show how it makes their lives better. […]

How it all started: (the long version, buckle up.) I thought it would be fun to look back at some of my favorite images in each category over the past few years. I started photography in February 2019. When I say that I knew nothing I mean it! I had no clue what I was […]

This family is one of my favorites. When they moved into our neighborhood I told Trent they were the 2.0 version of us. They are also business owners themselves and love to travel just like us! It was so fun to be able to meet this little guy and take some photos of him and […]

My parents went to help a neighbor clear their driveway after a snow storm. Well long story short they ended up bringing home a newborn baby lamb that was on the brink of death. They nursed it back to health… and so naturally we had to take easter pictures with all the kids! Update: His […]

The Esler Family! What great neighbors and friends we have found in this family. Kylie is one of the most genuine people I have ever met and is so open to ideas and input of others. I work with her in the Relief Society (the largest women’s organization in the world with a focus on […]

What an amazing family. I have so much to say about them I considered writing this blog before we even did the shoot because I already have so much I want to share! Ned and Lisa are some of the most open-hearted people I have ever met. They truly live a life open to others […]

I don’t know about other people but leaving a house is hard for me. When Trent and I were first married he wanted to move into a 2 bedroom from a 1 bedroom apartment and I didn’t want to because I had just finished making the one we lived in our home and I felt […]

The last few weeks of not-dripping-with-sweat-hot weather is upon us and the days are alternating between a little uncomfortable in the evenings and “wow, it’s so nice out tonight!” still. The night of this session fell on the later and it was even cloudy for part of the afternoon too so I think that made […]

What a beautiful family! The last time I took pictures with this family was August 2020 before that little girl you see in these pictures was born. BLAST TO THE PAST BY CLICKING HERE. I met Kelsi going to NAU and we played volleyball together. She later moved to the valley and when I followed […]

First of all: Happy birthday to Mila! What a beautiful day it was in flagstaff! And I have to say I totally admire the Curtis family’s dedication to annual family pictures. Not only do they take annual family portraits they drove to flagstaff for the day to switch things up a bit. I love the […]
