Family Session
Clarkdale, AZ (by Jerome and Sedona, AZ)
We honestly had a great day traveling up to Clarkdale, AZ to visit the Mejia Family. It started to rain in Phoenix while we left, and when we got into Cottonwood it was getting pretty cloudy and really windy. But as we settled down in Clarkdale, it turned out to be a great day! We met Andrew and Katrina awhile ago at a couple of Photography get togethers. They really are super outgoing and have been so great!!! They are amazing photographers in the Sedona area. Check out their website!!!
They have a little guy named Kaiden who is within months of Maddux’s age. But he is also just as big and developed as Maddux!
So we got a tour of their new huge house and were able to let Kaiden and Maddux play together. Which was so great. Kaiden can almost walk and has more teeth than Maddux. He was honestly so cute and fun! So while we were there, we forced them into allowing us to shoot some photos of their family. We were so excited!!! They honestly didn’t disappoint, since they both used to be professional models in their teens
Thanks guys for dinner and the photo shoot. You’ll for sure see more of yourself on our new portrait website coming soon!!!

We had a really cool and easy session with Stacy. She had contacted us for some new test shots for her modeling portfolio. She is a plus-sized model for one of the largest modeling agencies in AZ: Ford/Robert Black. She was also really easy-going and super nice.

Friends
Melissa Jill’s Home
We honestly should of blogged this awhile ago, but we have been swamped with tons of things to do lately. We spent a good night with one of our most favorite friends: Melissa Jill. We all had been wanting to get together and have a night together. So we went out and got some Mexican Food at “Some Burros” and came back and watched American Idol, which both Angie and Melissa love! It was also realy good food. She showed us around her home and studio and we all just had a blast. Maddux even asked when we left if Melissa would babysit. Thanks Melissa for the fun night!!! (Also, check out her blog!)
She had some great snacks!!!

Yup. I love Twix!


So does Melissa:

And Maddux! He honestly wouldn’t let it go all night!!!

Sanjaya!!! Melissa’s Favorite… Except he didn’t last too long… ;(

Melissa really is a great photographer. Well, since Maddux is such a great model:

Wedding
Trilogy at Vistancia (Peoria, AZ)
We had such a great wedding with Natalie and Julian. They were such an easygoing and happy couple. They had no reservations about seeing one another before the ceremony. That was Awesome!!! It allowed us to get all the formals out of the way! We also had a good time taking the bride and groom shots before hand, they were totally relaxed, happy, and enjoying the reason for the celebration. We had at least an hour with them alone before the ceremony and time honestly stood still.
We also want to thank Natalie’s Family and Julian’s Family for being so great. Natalie had a traditional Armenian Wedding and even changed into a traditional dress and danced until the night ended. It was great to see the love of life that everyone had tonight!
Thanks also to Judy Royce, of the Royce Group, from Chicago area for the Wedding Coordination.































Thanks Judy Royce for the great wedding!!!

Portrait
My Mom’s House
I wanted to always shoot a session with my mom. But, like me, she isn’t a huge fan of being in front of the camera. I think she is crazy!!! She’s so beautiful!!!
During my life, I have always been super close to my mom. I honestly was the kid who was never worried about hanging out with her. To be honest, she has been my best friend for a long time. We have been really close and she is the type of person that will do anything for those she loves. I am glad to say she has won “Mother of the Year” for the past 30 years.
She is also an amazing first grade teacher. Her kids absolutely love her!!! She is honestly the perfect parent and teacher. I can’t count the many times she would do so much for me. Sometimes Angie thinks I am spoiled. All I got to say is that I have never questioned the amazing perfect love that my mom has always shown me.



Some said in the post about my dad, that we looked similar. Do you think I look like my mom? (Post a comment)

Senior Session
Mesa, AZ
We were so lucky to be contacted by the Ness family for David’s Senior Session. We honestly loved the ideas that were given from David’s Mother: Nancy. David was referred to us from Karen and Scott. During the planning, Nancy mentioned the SS Camaro, their boat, and David’s favorite thing: WoW. So we were able to capture most of their ideas. We also broke a fence (sorry David!), shot with some guns (no bulletts, just shooting photos), and we made him dance!
Thanks David for the great time!


















We even watched him WoW it up!!!

Family Session
Tempe, AZ
On Friday, we had our best ever family session!!! The Maloney’s had contacted us to see if we could get a “million dollar” family photo, which has yet to be taken of them all together. So we had a big challenge ahead of us! They are related to one of our engaged couples: Jeremy + Colleen (who’s engagement session we shot a couple weeks ago).
We had a blast!!! We loved their style!!! They were the cutest family.
Thanks Maloney’s for allowing us to spend the evening with you.
