I thought we were going to get rained on. Instead, we got hit with a windstorm Typically we don’t get rain but it is […]

Located in the upper valley of El Paso, this session was out of my norm. Shot during mid morning when I usually only shoot sunrise or sunset. Dress is Reclamation Design Company. You […]

Dreamy El Paso Mommy & Me Session

The Guiterrez Family. I’ve been photographing this beautiful family for years! Although I am a photographer based in El Paso, Texas, when Steph suggested White Sands, New Mexico, I was like LET’S DO IT!

We are going to back track. I shot my last wedding when I was 37 weeks pregnant. Yep. You read that correctly. I DO NOT recommend it.  I could have sworn that being on my feet would put me in labor but it didn’t. Week 38, our household got hit with a cold. Honestly, I […]

HALO DreamNest | Motherhood | El Paso Photographer

I nursed Max before our mini photo session so he would be happy during the shoot… well it backfired. As soon as I set him down, he started dozing and passed out. Last time I checked in, he was using Halo SleepSack Self-Soothing Swaddle. He was in the process of learning how to roll over. Since […]
