The Towel | Queen Creek Photography
Yet another favorite on the home page slideshow, this towel picture. It was spring break and there he was wrapped up in a towel to stay warm after a swim in the pool. I love everything about this picture. Am I allowed to say that about something on my site? Mostly, those eyes that seem to be seeing right through the camera… Also, I love that spring break in AZ means swimming in a pool!
Following Directions | Queen Creek Photography
I have lots on my mind. First, I often wonder how I get from place to place because I am ALWAYS looking around for cool spots to take amazing pictures. I get to a stop sign and wonder what I have passed. Dangerous? probably! Second, my sister mentioned that nobody watches my slideshow (I probably should agree since it isn’t loaded fast and isn’t flash and isn’t like my old site) and suggested that I put my favorite pictures here in the blog so they are on record as part of my “gallery”. BTW, do you like this form of gallery? I suppose a gallery and blog may be overkill? So, I am combining them into one. Hopefully someday soon, I will rename the tab to be gallery/blog. Third, this picture is one of my fav’s too. I love the shoes, their smirky smiles (because they were doing everything in their power to run from me and I CAUGHT them) and I LOVE this location. It isn’t for everybody I suppose. It is an old crackly building on Ocotillo. Not much of the building is showing because with these two you get what you get and you don’t throw a fit (what I always tell my kids). I loved the subject which was most important!
The Princess | Queen Creek Photography
She is the only girl (as far as kids in the family) and I love that she can pose like no other. She has got the cutest skirt and jacket (ok, full outfit). Her smile is contagious! Oh to be young and vivacious! I have more of this darling girl-in her outfit for a special birthday. She is full of fashion (or could it be her mother?) and I can only imagine what that is like. I love the dynamics… if you saw last year’s pictures we captured a true family moment. This year (actually end of 2009), one year later they have all grown to be more handsome and beautiful. These are some of my favorites for this family but I really like the last/bottom right. I may need to put that in my studio one of these days! 
Part of the Family | Queen Creek Photography
Lily, this cute pug, has been in their family for quite some time! She is getting old and has cute grey whiskers to prove it. We did family pictures in their backyard to make sure that Lily could be part of the action.
Shy? | Queen Creek Photography
Josie is in kindergarten and one would think that when looking at this picture, she is shy. Ok, maybe having pictures taken brings out her shyness BUT I may beg to differ and let you know that she is one of 4 kids, very cute, full of energy and mostly not shy. : ) I love her little smile, I love her bright eyes, I love her skin tone. Studio photography can be hard (well, on me and the subject) due to lack of distractions and the pressure of standing there (or dancing, sitting, playing, etc.) while on a large roll of paper AND big ‘ol lights. She and her siblings were fun-that is always my favorite part, seeing those true personalities shine!
The Fields are Alive | Family Photography | Queen Creek, AZ
This picture was taken at the Pecan Groves in Queen Creek, AZ. The world of photographers hangs out there during the busy holiday time. We went early in the morning, the sun light was beautiful and the kids were great. I love the way the sun shines in this field.
She is Bored | Queen Creek Photography
This is another favorite of mine. If you knew her you would know why this is so funny! She is just in her own world, minding her own business… nevermind the fact that we were in the middle of pictures! : ) So, I did this picture in my little studio with white seamless backdrop paper. once everybody starts walking on that paper, it doesn’t seem white anymore but in this picture, you’d never know (unless you are seeing something I can’t). She wanted to be in pictures just like this. Her mom brought clothes to change but I always encourage moms to drop off so there is no extra pressure. AND, sometimes kids behave differently for their parents then they do for me. Anyhow, I just love what this says about her personality!
A Front Page Favorite | Queen Creek Photography
This family is not only cute with the pug, Lily, but we got some fun photos of the family jumping on the trampoline. If you be super patient and wait through my short slideshow on the home page, you will see the photo that I love (and also have hanging in my studio). There is something about a family laughing and playing together… But just in case you are lazy, I will post a second jumping picture here too. : ) I love the texture added by the net, I love the sun, I love the smile! AND, who doesn’t love real moments (kids being kids) with their kids. I’m telling you, this is what I adore!
