Molly + Rick + Family l AZ Family Photo session

Most of us have been there, getting out photos done for the very first time.

Many of my clients have had me as their very first ever photographer

and it, honestly, is the best feeling for me.

It's almost like I get to set a standard, you know?

I'm pretty goofy and fun, at least that's what

lots of people tell me! I can see it, I'm a dork.

Anyway, I was Molly and Rick's first ever family photographer.

It was a fun time trying to get little Louis to laugh

and smile. He was a tough one, but he is such a little handsome boy.

Seriously, so adorable. I had so much fun photographing them

and I hope they had as much fun with me, as I did with them.

Happy Thursday!

Lilly&Rosie l Baby portrait session

Oh these girls just crack me up! They are too funny.

Every single time I point my camera, they want to look away, eat

their tutu, or cry. Hmm... maybe it's because there is this huge black thing

in front of my face! I guess it could be scary, but they have their little laughs too :)

I can't believe how grown up they are! They will be 4 months on the 26th! WOW!

I photographed them back when they were almost 2 months and let me tell you, they have

grown so much! You can see their previous post here and witness how big they are now!

So big, in fact they are little fairies waiting to fly away and go off to college. Just kidding.

Happy Sunday!

-Diana

Let me know if you have any comments or questions!

Remember, there is an FAQ Friday now, every single friday (duh!)

My brother

Mother's Day is right around the corner.

Well at least for me, since I won't be seeing my mom that day.

Awww how sad.

Anyway, I am starting a collection of photographs,

so I can compile them into an album!

It's an awesome time to start doing this! It's technically a month away!

If you know your mama loves photos,

this is an awesome opportunity to start doing photos for her!

Just in time for Mother's Day!

I have my appt. to get photos taken of me and my siblings!

Hooray!

Happy Sunday!

Heather + Kenneth + Chloe + Gracie l Family session

Meet Heather, Kenneth, Chloe, Gracie!

They are a fun bunch!

So fun, indeed that I spent tons of time with them :)

Well who wouldn't when they have such cute family, especially a Gracie in the family.

Heather and Ken, or you can call him Bear,

are engaged and ready to have an amazing wedding

sometime! Wanna hear how they met?

Well, it's funny actually. Chole, Heather, and Ken all said

"Party!"

In fact, Chloe was there, at the party, trying not to get them to meet,

yes..... she said it. So cute, though.

Than she reveals that she was so confused

as to why she would even do that in the first place.

Like I said a fun bunch and I hope I can photograph

them another time!

Mariana, Jessica, and Anthony

Meet Mariana, Jessica, and Anthony.

These three saved me from a panic attack yesterday!

I was so nervous yesterday, because I was going to photograph a wedding

and I don't know why I was so nervous.

Little do they know, they really did save me.

They made my morning amazing

and I am so grateful to them.

I had an awesome time with these three

and I love that

they allowed themselves, to be them

in front of my camera.

Seriously though, you are all amazing!

I couldn't have asked to work with a happier bunch of siblings :)

-Diana

Lauren and Mom

Oh, where do I begin with these

two amazing gorgeous ladies!

First off, I thought they were twins when they were

walking toward me.

As Lauren and I introduce one another,

she introduces me to Mom!

Oh my lanta!

Yes, oh my lanta.

Not only were they beautiful, they were beautiful on the inside too!

The whole entire time, I couldn't stop laughing!

My cheeks still kinda hurt.

They are so full of joy and happiness

and I couldn't have been any more excited and overjoyed 

to have had the privilege of photographing them.

Time flew by when I was photographing them

and if I could, I would so do it all over again.

Lisa, Phil, and Donovan

This was such a great session to photograph!

Lisa and Phil just have the cutest, most adorable baby boy!

If, he doesn't become a GAP baby model, I would be surprised. He is great for it.

His personality is just so cute and charming :)

Amazing family to work with and

I hope to work again with them soon :)

Bence Twins

These adorable baby twins were born back in Dec 26, 2010

and they are just so adorable! When I found out I would be moving to North Carolina,

I was just so excited to photograph them, so was my cousin :)

They are fraternal babies and it's so funny how different both of

them, not only look, but act! Their personalities are just so funny, and of course... CUTE!

I was surprised they posed for my for as long as they did!

One minute they were crying, the next, they were sooooo happy when they

saw my big ol' camera in their face :)

What natural models!

Tanisha and her baby, Michael

I had the privilege of

photographing Tanisha and her son,

Michael.

Who, by the way, is soooo adorable!

He just turned two the other day!

I met Tanisha through one of my other clients,

and Tanisha has been such a joy to talk to!

Kristen and I will be photographing her wedding

this December! We are so excited for her wedding day.

It will be a blast, expecially since Tanisha 

is such a fun and bubbly gal! :)

Today we photographed her and Michael

just before the wedding! 

Here is my sneak peak!

[also, new logo! yay!]

Hope you enjoy these photos of Tanisha and Michael!

Michael was such a cute, giggly boy! 

I can't wait to see him again!

The Jackson's

This past weekend I had a great time photographing Heather and her family! I met Heather my last semester in photography! She has become an awesome friend to me and it's great that we share the same interests! We always talked alot in class and got in trouble at times, or we were given "the look." She is wonderful and so is her family! Thanks Heather! You guys were amazing!

Here are a few photos from the family shoot!

This is such a beautiful family! 

More to come soon!

Thanks Heather and Dane!

And great job on the adorable kids!
