father/ daughter bond, you break my heart ~albuquerque family photographer

this is loren and his sweet/smokin' daughter, kelsey.
they. were. awesome.
and the fact that they were getting a father/ daughter shoot was even awesomer.
(i love my dad SO MUCH. i do. he's a funny guy. but he would never have done this with me. not when i was in high school and not now. he's not one to show a soft side....)
so knowing that this was a rarity made me appreciate it even more.
i think more dad's need to do something like this to make their daughters feel special!!!

another bonus: kelsey is a student of my brother's.
it's so easy to get a teenager to smile when i'm dogging on my older brother (their teacher) and exposing all of his secrets.

i wish i wish i wish i had a picture of me and my dad like this one below:

just us hanging out and laughing.

they wanted to stop for some icecream (PERFECT!) so i kept my camera out...

nothing but love for the eby's ~las vegas, nevada family photographer

the eby's are new friend's in vegas.
i happen to be out there recently because i attended WPPI (which was flippin' UH-MAZING by the way. pictures to follow. soon.)

over email, laura had mentioned wanting some family pictures taken out by red rocks--which is pretty close to where they live.
i love red. i love rocks. i love pictures and i love people. GAME ON.
this place is so beautiful.
all of these odd shaped red boulders are just jutting out of the desert landscape, in the middle of no where. pretty cool.

and luckily, before we left for our final destination, i was able to get a few pics of little man getting in some wii time.



i entitled this ensemble "the power of the wii."

CAVE-TASTIC!

laura and brian are so easy going and laid back and kind and fun.

 

viva las vegas!

little miss sofia ~albuquerque children's photographer

i met up with sofia, her parents, grandparents and her favorite sock monkeys at explora museum for a fun toddler shoot.
sophia is two--and she is very bright, BUSY and inquisitive.
we ran from exhibit to exhibit for a couple of hours.
i'm not kidding, my legs have been sore ever since!
this little mama has so much energy--she wore me out--
and in the process, i got to document a two year old's view of this great, big, fun world we live in.


loved her and love these....

XOXOXOXO
