These two made our job so easy. In love and so at ease with one another. Looking forward to their upcoming wedding in October.

This sweet little peanut responded to her dad giving her comfort during her first ever photo shoot. She was amazing.

To have a first look or not? I can’t even explain how much emotion there is with both. Couples that have a first look get a private moment together to reflect and be emotional. But I have yet to see a couple that had a first look not be grappled by emotion once they are standing at each end of the aisle. The magnitude of the moment. 💗

Looking back at travel photos over the years, looking for some of our favorites. Sometimes your first pass you overlook one that you shouldn't have. This is one of them. Eight years ago we spent a month in Paris with the kids. Each day we would walk and walk and walk. This day we decided to sit on the steps at Trocadero, overlooking the Eiffel Tower. This dance flash mob popped up while the girls were sketching this most famous of Paris landmarks. Needless to say, with a rangefinder (#zeissikon) in hand Keith photographed the intimacy of these couples. This one photo had been overlooked but now I'm pulling it out of the deep depths of millions of photographs in our travel archive.

I love the intimacy in this photo (and it doesn't hurt to be in one of the best lobby bars in the Phoenix area).

Voter registration was extended to October 23rd in Arizona. If you are not registered it is so easy, register online by mail or in person. Your vote gives you a say in our democracy!

Remember, “Democracy is not a spectator sport.”

Mi Familia Vota, the Arizona Coalition for Change, and an individual voter registration organizer have won a lawsuit to extend the Arizona voter registration deadline to October 23rd. The plaintiffs argued that the COVID-19 pandemic stymied typical voter registration efforts. In response to that lawsuit, a federal judge in Arizona issued an order Monday evening extending the voter registration deadline from October 5th to October 23.

Thank you State Representative @reginald.bolding, @mifamiliavota, @ovov_az, @azc4c for all your efforts!

Pep would have turned 100 today. I’m super emotional as I reflect back on the type of man he was. In fact he has been a guiding light for me my entire life. Always honest, he called it like he saw it, always respectful, always positive and always my biggest supporter. He and Nana were the rock in my childhood, always there for me, always encouraging, always loving me so so much. Their home was a sanctuary filled with love. I am forever grateful to have had him in my life for so long. He died a few weeks before I met Keith almost 20 years ago and I oddly feel like he was somehow behind us meeting each other even though they never met. It was devastating when he died but I came to realize that he lives within me, his kindness, his sense of humor, his hard work, his dedication to family. He was a character and I miss him and love him more than ever. ❤️
10 favorite images from this Scottsdale engagement session. From TPC to Lost Dog Trail, lovely desert scenery.

The evenings are still a touch warm, but the light oh my goodness it is gorgeous. The Desert Botanical Gardens was splendid and we had the place almost to ourselves. @dbgphx

“I travel because it makes me realize how much I haven't seen, how much I'm not going to see, and how much I still need to see.” – Carew Papritz

I know that we live in an incredibly beautiful and diverse country so there is no shortage of road trips to take. But the ability to not travel wherever you feel like whenever you feel like leaves me with a little bit of melancholy. Really longing for the freedom to get out and see more of the world.

When I accepted the Spire team challenge to row 100,000 meters this month I'm not sure I thought I would complete it. But guess what, I did.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you @bennovak.spire for constantly inspiring me to be better every single day. And thank you @kellyannevaughn (even though I haven't seen you since COVID) for the motivation to join the challenge. The fact that @keithmpitts waited 3 months for our @concept2inc rower to arrive, there is now no excuse.

Nothing we love more than a real moment and some motion blur. Every single session without fail, this family has one of those candid moments that you can't help but feel. These are the memories that I treasure as a mom.

A sneak peek from yesterday's couple shoot. Love the colors and textures. It almost felt like Fall 🍁except for the 90 degree temperatures. 🤨Hard to complain about the weather here in November, perfection.

This tiny little thing turns 14 today. 💗In the blink of an eye she has become an incredible young woman (even though she wants to do her best to stay little). She is intelligent, passionate, strong willed, empathetic, beyond beautiful inside and out, an avid reader and collector of information and an artist. She surprises me everyday with her enthusiasm for learning and challenging herself. We are so excited to see what the future holds for our little baby bear. Love this kid beyond words. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Thank you @keithmpitts for being by my side and capturing these incredible #birthphotos of both girls. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
