Julie & Oscar Engaged: Yuma Wedding Photographer

June 1, 2013

This couple was so much fun to photograph! We decided to take these around downtown Yuma at night. Oscar is in the military and had to leave the next day. I really love night photography and I was so glad that Julie and Oscar were up for a night session. I think we got some beautiful images of them together. We started just after sun set off Main Street. Then we took some images near the old San Carlos Hotel and Main Street fountain. Here are a few of my favorites from their session.

I cannot wait for their wedding at the end of this month.

Vanessa & Darren Engaged: Yuma Photographer

March 12, 2013

I am so excited for Vanessa and Darren’s wedding next month! I first met Vanessa back in 1998 when my husband and I started dating. I am happy to call her my cousin and my daughter’s Godmother. I am so honored that Vanessa and Darren asked me to be their wedding photographer. It will be extra special because my daughter gets to be a flower girl for the first time too. Their wedding is going to be in beautiful Sedona, Arizona.

I took these engagement photos for them a while back. They were visiting Yuma so we decided it was a great opportunity to take their photos. It was a fun and relaxed session. I must say they make a beautiful couple and they are a perfect match for each other. These next two images are my favorites from the session. I love taking photos at night and I am especially excited that you can see some stars in these images too.

Amber: Yuma Senior Photographer

February 24, 2013

I have been taking Amber’s family’s photos for a little over three years now. I always love it when clients come back to me year after year. I get to capture all the special moments in their lives and watch them grow. When I first met Amber she was a freshman in high school and now she is a senior about to graduate and move on to college. Amber is a gorgeous girl inside and out. She is a smart, funny, talented (she plans to major in dance) and positive person. I am so glad I got to take her senior portraits.

Here are just some of my favorites from her session.

2012 Year in Review: Yuma Photographer

January 18, 2013

This year was a great year both personally and professionally.
My kids are growing so fast. My daughter started kindergarten this year. She really enjoys school and has turned into quite the reader. She also loves her dance classes at Yuma Ballet Academy. My little guy enjoys going to preschool and being my little photo assistant on his days off. We are excited that we will finally be moving into our new home at the end of this month. It has been a long time coming and it will be nice to finally unpack all of the boxes instead of living out of them.
My business has grown again this year! I feel so lucky to have such wonderful clients. I have many that come back year after year. It is always nice to see their families grow. I also love to document all the special moments in people’s lives. This year I got to photograph a few engagements, a couple weddings and lots of newborns. A big “thank you” goes out to Chris of Chris Bermudo Photography for being a second shooter at a Yuma Country Club wedding again this year. It is always great to work with him and his work is awesome. I also had many family sessions this year of both former clients and brand new ones. I love meeting new families and I hope to see them again in 2013. I got a chance to do some commercial work for Dupont and Goddess Athletic Wear. I enjoyed working on projects with both of these companies.
I attended WPPI again this year with my good friend and fellow photographer Tawnee Miller of Serendipity Photography by Tawnee. It is always a fun time and we learn so much. This year while we were in Las Vegas we attended Charleton Churchill’s photography workshop. If you haven’t seen his work I suggest you check it out. He is so talented and such a down to earth person. We learned so much from him and I am excited that I will be attending another workshop this year where he will be a mentor.
I have put together a slideshow of some of my 2012 sessions and events that I photographed this year. I Can’t wait to see what 2013 will bring!
