Traveling 36 weeks pregnant!? SAY WHATTTTTT!?!? Yep. This trip had been planned for months. Farmers Insurance has these achievement clubs each year and we’ve been fortunate to travel to Boston, Las Vegas, Seattle, Calgary, Savannah, Keystone, San Fransisco, Chicago, and San Antonio. When I say fortunate, I really mean, my husband is this AMAZING HARD […]
32 weeks pregnant and planning a birthday party is NO FUN. This is why I chose Peter Piper Pizza. I didn’t have to worry about making food. I didn’t have to worry about entertaining the children. I didn’t have to worry about the clean up. Eliseo is OBSESSED with Pixar Car’s. He loves Lightning McQueen, […]
Happy Birthday to our two year old! How has it been two years already!? He loves rock music. His favorite band is Sevendust and it has to be played almost EVERYTIME in the car. His favorite foods: Chipotle, pasta, french fries, and veggie sticks. Total toddler diet. He can spot a Starbucks two miles away and ask […]
It was 105 degrees. It should be illegal for women to be pregnant in the summer. When I was pregnant with Eli during Summer 2016, I didn’t mind the heat. In fact, I LOVED it. I used to be a very cold person. I always carried a cardigan/sweater for me because I was always freezing. […]
Veronica Cook is also a wedding and portrait photographer in El Paso. We met up in the dry Rio Grande to swap headshots. I had SO MUCH fun with her. SOOOO MUCH. We laughed the ENTIRE TIME.

They fought to get their images from this photographer and after months went by, they got them. However, they weren’t that great. I wanted to give […]
It was a nice warm day for November. I met this pretty lady at Westside Community Church. Her and family are such wonderfu people. I had so much fun with Vivian. She was such a natural! I rarely had to direct her! We started the shoot downtown. Luckily, it wasn’t so busy. We took the […]
Yani turned one in November but because she and her mom got sick, the cake smash session had to be pushed back. I usually do my sessions outdoors. However, the high for El Paso, Texas on December 23. 2017 was 50 degrees. YIKES! Yani’s mom didn’t want to do them outdoors. I didn’t blame her. It […]
Engagement session at the Grand Canyon ✔️ This location to shoot at was on my bucket list! On the way there, there were terrible storms all around us. Heavy rain and lighting!! We weren’t sure if we were going to be able to shoot at all. When we got there, it was 60 degrees and […]
Guys.. I have know Sara since 2012. Her mama used to own The Pink Cottage! I had just graduated from the University of Texas at El Paso and NO ONE wanted to hire me. NO ONE. Her mom gave me a job and I worked there for for almost 2.5 years. I really enjoyed it […]
