Dylan {arizona teen photographer}

This is Dylan. I knew I would like him the moment he walked in. With his rockstar hair (his mom is a hairdresser), his vans, skinny jeans and volcom top. I hope one day I have a son who looks as cool as he is! He was fun to photograph and so easy going about the whole thing!

I took a class from Sarah Goodman (AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHER) she really helped me to understand my camera. I remember reading an interview go4pro did on Matt Clayton (another AMAZING photographer in utah). He talked about how he rarely edits pictures because a great photographer shouldn't have to do much to their pics and how they should be able to know the camera. Well it finally clicked with Dylan. I didn't have to edit any of the pictures. What you see is "SOOC" straight out of camera!

Think these are adorable?!

Old McDonald

I live in the Desert, but three minutes down the road I have farms, corn fields, grass...how does this happen in Arizona? Weird to me. Guess that is what makes this place so unique! The other after running errands with my son I thought we should do something fun, so we randomly just pulled over to a ranch so B could see the animals. They were pretty interested in him. The horse was the most curious!

i love that if you look closely you can see my reflection in the horses eye. I love horses. I hope one day I can own a few, they are such a gorgeous animal!

the cows were watching us and felt left out...so we said hi to them also!

What do you say we leave for California, If we drive all night we can make it by the morning

I just love this place. This is where my husband and I grew up, spent all our time, came after school, before school and all the in between. I love it...it's beautiful!

The Whole H Clan {Mesa family photographer}

I loved working with this family. They are so high energy and such joksters, it was a lot of fun! You can tell how much they all really love each other and what a blast they all have laughing together! Thanks for letting me spend a few hours with you guys and take your pictures! It was a lot of fun for me!

Gotta love this one!
