Mrs. Telford and Family

Mrs. Telford was my daughters 4th grade teacher last year and this year she is the Dean of Students. A couple of months ago she added a beautiful baby boy to her family. He was so cute in his little plaid shirt and her husband has an awesome British accent that is fun to listen to. Thanks for letting me be apart of making memories.

Rettig Family

I have known my good friend since I was a little girl. My family would come from CA to AZ to visit with her and her family. We went to dances together when we were teenagers, I attended her high school with her for a week when I flew out to visit during my spring break. We have a lot of memories and now we are all grown up, with families of our own. She just recently moved back to AZ and I was so excited when she asked me to take her family's picture. They are a very beautiful family.

The Schvaneveldt Family

Meet the Schvaneveldt Family. Their newest addition is the little guy in the front with the orange shirt. He was just adopted recently form Guatemala. He was so happy. All I had to do is play peek-a-boo behind my camera and he'd bust up laughing.

The "Family Squeeze."

You can tell that Grandma and Grandpa are proud of their grandkids.

Redmond's

I have known this adorable Redmond family for years. We were friends in CA and we just happened to move close to them in AZ. They are a wonderful family. I enjoyed spending time with them this past week.

The Glenn Family

This is my first time meeting the Glenn family. I knew their son who was in my daughters preschool class last year, but I hadn't officially met everyone else. They have adorable kids who were great to work with.

The Taylor Family

The Taylor family is one of my favorite families to shoot, that is if I'm allowed to choose. They are always so lively and act like their true selves even when a camera is in front of their face. This is my fifth year shooting them and they were a little more mellow. Typically I have the boys wrestling, mom threatening, and dad just smiling:) This year they acted more grown up. They also have a foreign exchange student living with them this year. She is on the front row to the left.

The Frandsen Family

The Frandsen's had their college daughter home for the Labor Day Holiday weekend. They decided it was a perfect time for a family photo. We took the pictures at their home and that worked out perfect. I was able to work with the kids one at a time while everyone else sat in the cool house waiting their turn. We all made it through the heat and mosquito's:) They are a great family and I had a blast working with each one of the kids and learning more about them.

I just giggle every time I look at this. He is so adorable.
