The Peterson Clan

I truly felt blessed to have been asked to take family photos for everyone as they all got to be back in AZ for the holidays! I can't say enough good things about this family- in the 10 plus years that I've know them I've had a great friendship with Whitney, I had Jeff as my pastor during my junior high and high school years, Ryan was mine and Jon's premarital counselor, and I'm still so thankful for the friendships our families have together. It's so neat to look at Rich and Char together and then to see what a beautiful family has been made because of them- they must be so proud! This fun and entertaining photo shoot is another memory to add to all the awesome ones I have with them! :)

The Fiske & Cook Family

Ryan & Melodee are first time parents to Rowen and I got to meet the cute little guy at our photo session. He looks a lot like his daddy and was so adorable wearing his lumberjack hat! We were outside taking pictures on one of the coldest days this winter so Rowen wanted to be bundled up and listening to music on mommy's phone :) It's clear to see that he is such a loved baby, especially by his sweet grandparents and his auntie!

The Cruz Family

I had so much fun shooting this fun and casual family photo session at Starbucks. Jake and Jacqueline have 3 beautiful kids and it was cool to see them all together again, as Timmy serves in active millitary duty and is stationed on the East Coast. Lexi and her little sister, Terez, were so happy for their brother to be home that they all did gangnam dance style poses for some of the photos! :)

My Awesome Family

God really did bless me with the best family ever! My nieces and nephew couldn't be any cuter or sweeter and I just love how good of a big brother Cohen is to all 3 (soon to be 4) of his sisters. They are all great cousins to Brody and it is so cute how much he loves all of them :) My mom and dad are the best Nana & Papa and you can see how each of their 5 grandkids love being with them- especially when they have suckers and other goodies waiting at their house after a morning out taking Christmas pictures in the freezing cold 40 degree Arizona weather! ;)
