When you get an email from the sister of a past pride asking if you could take pictures of her 6 month old baby girl, you say sure! When she ask you if you can meet at her sister-in-laws house to take the picture because she has a "fun house" you reply yes. Then you show up and see this beautiful baby girl and this incredibly decorated shabby chic house, you burst with excitement inside.. That is just what happened. Elaine emailed me to see if I could take pictures of Stella and asked if we could meet at her sister-in-laws house. Well, you can see for yourself that Stella is beautiful and the house was a photographer's dream. Elaine had all her own idea's for Miss Stella. We had so much fun and Stella was a trooper to say the least. I loved how Stella would smile at her mommy over and over again. She is truly a happy baby. This shoot inspired me to convert some of my office into a studio. I called my friend Nancy after the shoot and was blabbing away on how much fun ...

Lazaro and Raeannon were married at Tre Bella in Mesa this past November 13Th, and it was perfect. I have been looking forward to their wedding for a while now. I am so comfortable being with this couple for I did Raeannon's BFF's wedding earlier this year. You might remember Chris and Christina. Between path's crossing at weddings and then Lazaro and Raeannon's engagement pictures it felt like hanging out with friends. This was my first time at Tre Bella and it was a great experience! Every detail from this wedding from dress, shoes, flowers, ring box (instead of pillow), cake, sparklers, etc.. were stunning. Lots of detail, which means lots of detail shots. This close up of Raeannon is one of my favorites from the entire day. More detail shots from the reception side of Tre Bella. Lazaro and Raeannon you are a beautiful couple and I am so happy for you. Thank you for allowing me to photograph your spectacular day....
