Oh what a pleasure it was to meet this most amazing, gorgeous family. Since we shot this session a few weeks ago, Dad has since deployed to Iraq where he will be for about 13 months. Long months when you have four children and a wife who are at home!
What an honor it was to shoot Dale and Amy and their children – their session could not have gone better – from the ADORABLE little patriotic outfits on the girls, to the boys in their camo.
Be safe, Dale, and come home soon! And… THANK YOU for your service!!!

Photographing this family is always a treat – whether in Cincinnati – or here in Scottsdale! I love it when my clients from Ohio end up vacationing in Arizona, and call me for photos! I’ve had the pleasure of photographing Caleb and Campbell for quite some time now — and with every session, I just love them more and more! (Plus it helps that their parents are really AWESOME too!)
I photographed the twins in Old Towne Scottsdale and then we went to the Sugar Bowl (haven’t been? I highly recommend it!)…. for some ice cream and of course, more photos!

I met this charming West Side couple at the Civic Center in Scottsdale for pre-wedding portraits.
They were getting married at the courthouse but still wanted fabulous engagement-style portraits to remember the day. They’re super sweet, so very much in love, and they made my job so easy.
Just look!



They celebrated the big event at a small Brazilian restaurant with family and close friends and I can’t wait to show them the rest of their images !

A few weekends ago I photographed a lovely Bat Mitzvah at Temple Emanuel in Tempe, and followed the party to the Kiwanis Indoor Wave Pool – talk about a FAB place to celebrate! All of the kids enjoyed swimming and games of tug-of-war while grown up family and friends had time to sit down and catch up. The best part about a pool party in Arizona — the weather! A gorgeous day – sunny and 70`temps made this day a joy, from the wee hours of the morning, til the partying was done!

“Where’d she go?”
“Has anyone seen Melissa?”
“Hello… hello… hello… ::echo fades into the distance::”
That’s me. MIA. Missing in action. Gone. Absent from the blog. I’m so sorry!! It’s just that life and work got hectic and something had to give. Couldn’t be family. Couldn’t be friends. Couldn’t be clients. Couldn’t be the holidays themselves. That left the poor blog.
My New Year’s Resolution? You’ll be seeing a lot more of me in 2010! (now, is that twenty-ten or two thousand ten…. the things we have to ponder!)

What do you get when you take a family of 16 from all over the United States, mix them with a venue that’s off-the-chain gorgeous (The Phoenician, in Scottsdale), and top it with a session full of laughs? You get this:



Gloria & Family…. thank you so much for making me a part of your family holiday get-together. It was an honor and a pleasure… and a lot of fun!

Sometimes you can’t go wrong. Take a gorgeous, sunny, bright Phoenix day, add in the mix a fun-loving, beautiful family, and what do you get?? (Ok, don’t guess, I’ll tell ya) You get the most amazing photos of a family that truly eminates love and happiness. What else can I say?? LOVED this session that we shot in downtown Phoenix near Cooperstown and Copper Square.

We could not have asked for a more perfect morning to shoot this session – it was actually overcast (hard to believe here in the Valley of the Sun!)… weather was beautiful, and look at how adorable these two sisters are!
I shot this session at the DC Ranch Market Street area …and really loved it! I’ll definitely be heading back to Scottsdale to shoot here… so many possibilities!
Without further adieu…meet this morning’s beautiful sisters:

Ah… I love my job! I recently had the pleasure of shooting these two adorable siblings. They were SO cute – little Sienna was the most well behaved girl I think I’ve ever met. (Including my own four mini-me’s…). She followed directions wonderfully and did whatever we asked her to do! And her 6 month old smushable little baby brother…… six months of total preciousness! Smiles, smiles, and more smiles! (Oh yeah, mom and dad were pretty cool, too!) Enjoy these few previews while I’m working on putting up more recent sessions…

You guys have been so patient and I **so** appreciate it! I’m working feverishly (still!) to get all the sessions from Cincinnati previewed and proofed ! There were SO many gorgeous kids, families, babies, seniors, etc…. here’s a small sampling of what I’ve got previewed so far… more to come, I promise, I promise! :-)










See! I really wasn’t kidding – so many beautiful clients! More to come… soon… I promise!
