Daniels {Papago park AZ}

When I booked this session, I assumed Deborah heard about the mini session's thru social media.   I also assumed we were complete stranger's who had never met.  At the beginning of our session she mentioned how her friend Autumn shared my post and that they were friends from college.  Just like that a light bulb came on, I asked if she was at Autumn's wedding knowing I was at the only table with friend's and there was a VERY good possibility this is who we talked to during dinner.  Sure enough it was and then we chatted about our mutual friend and her adorable kiddos.

We met up at Papago park and walked down to this pond for some shade.  This adorable little peanut wasn't feeling the best but looked so cute snuggled up and gave some great smiles, smooches and mommy moments. 

I had a great time chatting with this family and watching them interact.  They really cherish time with one another and the love is radiant. 

Kelley Family {Arizona mini session}

Funny that I go all the way to Arizona to photograph someone from New Lisbon!  Ashley is the little sis of an old friend from high school.  Now Ashley and her husband, and they're two adorable little kiddos get to live in this beautiful warm state year round.  When we met up we underestimated the overwhelming amount of rocks and how cool they are to little boys.  Ben had quite the collection started and it did keep his attention at ground level often haha!  He was so sweet and such a good brother, we may not have got that perfect pose with everyone looking and smiling.  But I think we got some of the best real moments in such a great location!  Thanks for making the drive to Papago park, Cheers!
