Where do I even begin?
I love this family so much and am so honored they wanted me to come all the way to them in Ruidoso, New Mexico, to photograph their sweet new son. Words cannot even describe how I feel about this & the time spent with them, so I will keep it simple and let the photos speak at how sweet the day was.
These are a few of my favorites. More to come in their private gallery.
love.love.love

The bride & groom we photographed this past weekend had amazing style.
Wait until you see these precious loubies in color.
Love = fabulous.
Christian Louboutin = fabulous.

This oh-so-sweet one month old was just a joy to photograph.
Her adorable big brother made the session very entertaining too. 
While mom, an amazing yoga instructor, rocked his sister to sleep, he created a masterpiece: a portrait of me taking photos. 
I was amazed at his talent and all the other drawings he had on display at home. 
The one below was just "in progress" as the final one had even more thoughtful details...(don't you just love the yellow hair and Nikon logo:))...
I enjoyed this family immensely...
And I can't wait to show them the full gallery.

...I was SO honored when I found out that a very well-known on-line magazine and resource for photographers selected one of my images to be in one of their guides...It sits in with a lot of well-known photographers & their images, so I was pretty giddy when I found out...and I just had to share the news with you...

...I LOVE this company and wanted to show you some of their beautiful products...
...I am particularly fond of this company as they fit my style so perfectly...
...They are individually handcrafted by artisans and use the finest materials to create their albums, folios and presentation boxes. Each one of their products are made from rich, smooth, heavyweight fine art paper and fabric. They have a beautiful selection of elegant Japanese bookbinding fabrics and Swiss ribbons to color coordinate the products with your images, personal style or home.
...The craftsmanship is absolutely amazing...and I am so excited to keep filling up my home & studio with even more color combinations for me to enjoy and you to see...
...lots of love and a lot more to come soon too...
...I just wish there were more hours in the day...

...I have debated on whether to post this or not, but finally came to the conclusion that I want the people who love my photography to know a little about me...nothing too exciting, just a bit of who I am, how I got here and what I absolutely love...I want to give a little insight as to who I am and my history with art to set me apart from "just another photographer"...I hope this helps you get to know a little about me...

...I remember growing up always wanting to be an artist...I started drawing and painting at a very young age and took as many art classes as I could...I fondly remember one of my childhood friend's mother who was an amazing artist. I vividly remember all the art supplies carefully organized in canisters along the art tables, counters and windows...I mean tons of them. All organized by type and color...but "artist" organized, not super clean or perfect...just like they had been used and placed quickly back where they were supposed to go but able to be used right away... I loved that...I loved everything about the colors, the paper, the brushes, and the creating of something beautiful...As I grew older, I wanted more of it...I did fine in all my other studies, but art was by far, my favorite. My grandfather was an artist/illustrator for Disney back in the day and I loved just the notion that I was related to an artist...that kept my hope alive that I could do it too...

...I moved to Durango in the middle of my high school years and the only thing that made it easier were my art classes...I took them all:)...I instantly connected with my art teachers...they were so amazing...they made me feel like I belonged...I graduated with academic honors and received academic scholarships to a couple different colleges, including Fort Lewis...but my secret favorite thing is that I was entered into the National Art Honors Society as well as chosen as the Senior Artist of the Year when I graduated...if anyone out there has moved to a new city and knows how hard it is, then you may understand how honored and special I felt when told these things my last year of high school...It made it real that I might be able to pursue being an artist after high school...

...But then, you second guess yourself anyways...or at least I did...How could I possibly make it as an artist? What kind of stable job would I have? blah, blah, blah...I started off as an art major, not really thinking about what I would do after college...but all of a sudden I felt pressured to make a decision on what to do with my life...so, with one year away from graduating, I switched majors...and I graduated with an International Business Degree...what? I know...I just thought it may be really amazing to learn multiple languages and somehow incorporate the fashion world into it... so I set my sights on Parsons Design School and a move to Paris...I know what you are thinking...where did fashion come into play?...I forgot to mention that I LOVE the entire theatrics of a fashion show, the creating of clothing as well as the photographs that accompany them...wow...I love all of it and consider it an very beautiful art...So, I did the student exchange thing, lived in Europe and went to school while traveling across Europe. While there I visited each and every art museum I possibly could...I was kind of obsessed...well, because they are amazing...and I planned on going to Parsons as soon as I graduated college (I think I still have the vhs tape they send you when you apply)...I dreamed of one day having my own art gallery...a beautiful modern art gallery.... as well as doing something, anything in the fashion industry...

...well...then I came home, graduated...and...happened to meet the love of my life, my husband, Daniel... who knew he would be right in Durango too...and on a blind date set-up to top it all off...seriously...I never would have thought that...

...now 10 years later we have two gorgeous daughters...wow...I have a super blessed life...and I am now able to fulfill the artist in me...and do it with photography...and to my surprise, I have the most amazing clients who hire me to photograph them...that is the most extraordinary thing ever...I LOVE making people feel beautiful and taking images that freeze a moment, a kiss, a smile, a hug all while creating a piece of art...all the special moments that I share with my husband and daughters make me appreciate every single day...I get to capture that for other people...That is so special to me and I do not take that for granted...It is very exciting to me that I get to do what I absolutely love and make people happy all at the same time...It is like all the paths in my life led me to this place...

...extra little tidbits...I have been doing graphic design and using adobe photoshop & other various adobe design products for over 12 years now...so the blend of all of my nerdy computer skills and obsession with art just blend together quite perfectly:)...

...Ahh...what a dream...and I want to take this SO many places...so please stay and enjoy it with me!  I can't wait for all that lies ahead...I still dream of a modern art gallery of my own...who knows:)...my new downtown boutique office is a start...

...Here are a few photos (of two cutie pie sisters) for those of you who do not feel like reading this or to at least make up for boring you to death :) ...

Lots and lots of love...

...It is that time...
...To start holiday shopping...
...I know, you may not think so, but it is...
...I am shamelessly plugging my FAVORITE store in Durango ~ From the Heart...
...They have new items arriving daily, so go take a look...
...I am so glad that we have such an amazing store such as this that carries designer clothing and jewelry (as I have a thing for designer jeans and bcbg)...It is a huge thing to have this store since Durango was voted worst dressed about 10 years ago!...
...From the Heart vows to change that...
...and I am right there with them...
