Yay…so I’m finally uploading the photos I took of the spunky Pangburn’s…lol. Just wait you’ll see what I mean. Kadie & Joe are also funky fresh photographers based here in Tucson, Arizona. They focus mainly on hip weddings & couples. Well instead of always being behind the camera they decided they needed a few updated shots of themselves for the holidays and just cause. Well we got a little more then a few shots that are totally them. We met up at one of their favorite spots. ‘The Lost Barrio.’ Which I had never been to before. I’ve shot at the ‘old barrio’…but this place has way cute character. Anyhow it was a great afternoon filled with laughter, goofyiness…is that even a word? and chasing after their rock fetching daughter/four legged companion ‘Audrey’. Who would randomly hide from us and sometimes make us start worrying. Thanks again Kadie & Joe for totally letting your personalities shine through! Can’t wait to do it again sometime.

So yesterday to my surprise I received a little lovely package containing a calendar from Marie at the Arizona Heart Gallery.  An organization that focuses on taking ‘heart reaching’ professional photographs of children in foster care with the goal of placing them with a loving family that will take care of them forever. I’ve had the pleasure of volunteering my services with this amazing inspirational non-profit organization for the past two years. This year they put out a calendar to gain support and awareness for their passion.  Erin Durband of ‘ekahdphotography’ & I photographed a larger family for the calendar earlier this fall that has fostered numerous teenagers.  If anyone you know who’s considering adopting a child no matter their age please contact them today.  Click on the image below to get to their site.  Also if you’re a photographer who’s wanting to help more please contact Marie…they’re always looking for unique photographers in unique areas of Arizona.

Awwwww….Mrs. Sally Garcia is so beautiful & a total doll.  She won’t admit it but she is.  Ok so here’s the goods I mean images.  They are so wonderfully funny, vibrant, and all out silly.  Love it.  When a client plays along I get to do my thang.  I had Eric my husband do the chalk boards before I headed out for the shoot since I had some ideas I wanted to execute.  Sure glad I did.  They’re my favorite.  Not to mention the exposed ‘look here at my belly’ shot that Sally randomly did.  Gosh.  Makes me chuckle every time I look at it.  Her expression is so ‘in the moment.’  Gotta get one of those on every shoot.  The ‘in the moment’ stuff I mean…not a belly shot…LOL.  I’m glad that one of their doggies sat still for me for one second to get their portrait taken.  We tried a group shot but they wanted nothing to do with it.  It was more like ‘lets climb all over mommy & daddy since their wearing black shirts and we can get our hair all over them…hee hee.’  So yes the lint roller was our friend on this day.  Also when I rummaged through the baby’s room we found these adorable girlie shoes & baby book that I knew I had to incorporate some how. Gregory & Sally I’m so happy for the two of you and can’t wait to see your baby girl soon!

Hello awesomeness!  Meet the Boyle family.  My last post explains most of our exciting shoot…so I’ll just get to the images.  Cause I LOVE em’. It’s so nice to escape from Tucson sometimes and venture out into areas that look like were in Kansas. But without the tornados…LOL.  Though the first shot with the small adobe building kinda looks like the destruction of one.  And to think this site is only about 1 hour away from the city.  I really think the expressions and moments I was able to capture were so relaxed and personable.  Gotta love what creativity & moods kids bring to a session.  So imaginative and wonder-like.
