The Phoenix ~ Gilbert Children's Photographer

"The {Phoenix} bird flutters round us, swift as light, beauteous in color, charming in song. When a mother sits by her infant’s cradle, he stands on the pillow, and, with his wings, forms a glory around the infant’s head. He flies through the chamber of content, and brings sunshine into it, and the violets on the humble table smell doubly sweet."
- Hans Christian Andersen

There is a reason why our city is named Phoenix.  The sky was on fire last night (and so were these 4 kiddos)!

Thanks for visiting!

An AZ snow storm! ~AZ Child photographer

Here in the Valley of the Sun there is only one way to do snow pictures, make your own snow! The "snow" was definitely the highlight for these kiddos at their sessions!

Family of 3 ~ AZ Newborn Photographer

This family is so sweet together.  Their new baby boy is such a good baby.  They are enjoying his first days so much!  I hope these images help them remember those first precious days of life.

thanks for taking a peek,

The Sweet Spot ~ Gilbert Children's Photographer

When they are born, everyone tells you how fast it goes.  You don't realize it until the years are passing.  As the kids grow, they get more independent, their schedules fill up with activities, and they entertain themselves.  If you take a step back to take it all in you may realize you are in the sweet spot.  Julinna W. Miner wrote an amazing heart warming article about the "Sweet Spot".  Check it out here The Sweet Spot.  I hope I captured this family's "Sweet Spot".  At this age, a family photo session can be an opportunity to put down all the ipods, homework, sports practices, etc to cuddle and just soak them in before they are grown.
