Canyon Photography — Fri, 08 Jul 2011 16:01:40 +0000

Oh man, this blog is getting dusty! I’m so very behind on sneak peaks of my photography sessions but still been busy working, sorry for the neglect! I promised this little one-year old’s momma a small sneak of her ADORABLE red head. The classic red wagon + pop of green background + perfectly content little guy made for a fun morning session in Scottsdale. I have to admit, I sort of wanted to take him home with me, he was a doll!!! 2 images for now, you’ll love the full gallery, he’s just perfectly adorable in everyone! Here’s a sneak of or sunrise portrait session:

Sweet and new | Chandler, AZ newborn photographer

Canyon Photography — Sun, 03 Apr 2011 05:30:40 +0000

Fresh. Sleepy. Loved. This little guy was 14 days old, and in terms of newborns, he’s on the older side. He gave mom + dad a hard time before our session but by the time I got my hands on him he was putty. Lovely, squishy, bendy putty. He posed like a champ, slept on cue and even got a few sweet kisses by his fun and lively older brother. As a mon, I know that it’s an amazing blessing watching your first child become a “big” brother or sister. It brings out the most amazing feeling of deep love watching that new connection, never to be topped! Welcome to the world baby J, welcome to the world.

I can’t get enough of newborn parts! Ears, lips, and toes, so small and delicate!

What fun to be ONE! | Mesa, Arizona toddler photography

Canyon Photography — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 20:11:33 +0000

I know it’s been quiet around here, between business and family I’ve had to leave blogging on the back burner. I have 18 sessions that need blogged, all have long been seen by the families and portraits are hanging on the walls. Someday I’ll get through it all but for now, just one of an adorable little man!

And a few more from the rest of our fun morning session and then cake smash! How can you beat watching a 1 year old smoosh up a cake and enjoy every minute of it? Oh yeah, have his big brother there cheering him on! Go little guy, it’s your birthday!

This post was supposed to be of my sweet little man turning ONE today, I cannot believe how fast time has gone! I’ll have to save his post for after I actually take his 1-year pictures, hopefully soon Busy busy around here and a quiet blog usually means I’m busy spending my nights editing. These images have long been delivered to the clients but I just have to share my favorites from their session! Twin boys + gorgeous home + beautiful parents = perfect session in my book!

Wall Art Wednesday Phoenix family photographer

Canyon Photography — Wed, 02 Feb 2011 17:04:55 +0000

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means! Another edition of Wall Art Wednesday, fun fun fun! This week is a bit less structured which works well for a lot of my clients homes. My design style is on the fence between structured and a bit loose, we’ll just call it semi-structured. I’ve come to realize that with 2 kids in the house there’s less structure to our home (thanks to the explosion of books, crafts, and toys) and I need a bit of structure on our walls to counterbalance the craziness that comes with kids Someday I’m going to take some rockin’ pictures of our wall art to use for this weekly post but for now, here is a bit more inspiration.

I’m a serious sucker for incorporating the kids art work onto the walls. Letting them see their work in a frame allows them a sense of worth to their art which is so important! Use something fun and less “matchy” like this in a kids area, play room or even eat-in kitchen like this one shows. Did I mention how I love the frames that all come together perfectly but nowhere near match?

I love the size of these prints over the couch. Bigger is better over furniture!

Have a great Wednesday!!!

Catch up time! | Phoenix, Arizona family photographer

Canyon Photography — Fri, 19 Nov 2010 06:17:07 +0000

As with most photographers, this time of year is more than crazy. We build ourselves up for it, know it’s coming but no matter what, I still can’t keep up with it all! This blog, which I hope at least someone reads (:waves hi: comment, let me know you’re here!!) is one thing that can be neglected. Holiday cards, client proofs, orders, etc can’t be! So here’s a bit of what’s been going on for the past month or so!

be back with more soon!

Family love | Scottsdale, Arizona family photographer

Canyon Photography — Wed, 10 Nov 2010 05:43:04 +0000

This sweet daughter set up a photo shoot almost a year ago for her mom (& I’m sure dad too!). Full family portraits get harder and harder as children are added and it’s so important to capture at least a few moments throughout the year. Hope these serve as a memory of how sweet your time is with these great kids, they grow up way too fast!

As much fun as toddlers can be, this family knew how to laugh. I’m still not sure if we ever got to the punchline of the joke which made the outtakes of laughter even more fun. And Granny, goodness she had some pep, I loved her! Gorgeous family both inside and out, it was a pleasure B family!!

I first met this beauty just shy of a few weeks old and have watched her grow into a gorgeous 9 month old girl. Her eyes have always been this beautiful, she makes my job as a photographer easy! Love watching the transformation from newborn to standing, babbling and engaging baby. I could have watched baby A play all day! Enjoy your sneak peak C family!

Squish! There’s not much better than a sleepy, squishy, bendy newborn and this one is no exception. She’s quite the beautiful little lady and already has her parents wrapped around her finger, just the way it should be Congratulation on baby “L”, she’s perfect!
