Shay: A 2014 Skyline High School Senior

I got to meet another fun high school senior while catching him in some of his best moments! Shay is on the varsity wrestling team at Skyline High School and I was able to take some photos of him warming up and preparing before a match. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to compete because there wasn't a heavy weight competitor for him on the opposing team. Shay also rides dirt bikes and was able to do a little riding during our session. Between a great location, a skilled rider and another awesome Arizona sunset- we were able to get some great pictures!!

The Rush Family!

At our session this weekend I met another family with 4 awesome kids! I got some great shots of them and we all still managed to have fun even in the 36 degree weather that we had! Eric & Cyrena have beautiful kids and they were all great troopers dealing with photos in the freezing cold :)

The Fun & Beautiful Schalick Family

This family session with the Schalick's was so much fun and incredibly entertaining!! I met this amazing family years ago at Red Mountain Christian Center & it's so fun to now see all of those 'adorable little Schalick kids' grown up! Sarah, Daniel, Rachel, Adam, Eva & Sofie are some of the most polite and sweetest kids and teenagers that you'll meet. I love seeing big families who love each other and have so much fun together. Tim & Mary definitely did a great job of raising their family to be that way. I know I speak for many people in saying that they are just an awesome family to know!

My Most Favorite People

I don't know where to begin with this crazy bunch other than saying that I truly have been blessed with the greatest family. Through all of the fun times and the sad times, all of the HILARIOUS moments & memories that I will never forget- my family is the constant factor in them all!! But then again when there are 6 kids within our family, our lives are bound to be entertaining and a good kind of crazy :) Cohen is the sweetest and most caring young man that there is… and it feels really weird to say young man & not 'little boy' but he isn't so little anymore. The kid is so smart and creative and he can just crack me up!! My Ella girl is so stinkin' pretty! She started school and just decided it was time to look and act all big girl on us and she was flat working it for family pictures. Little miss Layla is a crack up and she never ceases to surprise me with what she comes up with next. She is quite the fashionista and is never hesitant to point out that you're just in sweats & not wearing any makeup haha! Ali, Ali, Ali.. the smartest and funniest 2 year old out there. She never misses a beat and she's the best 'cheeser' in the family! Emily is my little peanut girl and I absolutely love her sweet smile! And of course there is Brody- mine and Jon's biggest joy! He is the best little guy, such a good boy, and 100% BOY!! We all love to joke about how he's too much for himself to handle. I like to give the kids the spotlight but I can't stop without mentioning my awesome sister and brother-in-law and how much fun we have with them. And last but not least, my amazing parents who always have and still do so much for all of us & who make the world's best Papa & Nana to our kiddos!

A Sneak Peek At The Aguilar Family!!

The Aguilar family is another beautiful family that I met for the first time at our photo session! We had a fun time out taking pictures and we all got a great morning laugh at Carlos… little guys are the best! :) Thanks for making my job so much fun Aguilar Family!
