the noorda family

The woman .... I owe everything to her! She has saved my life here in Henderson, NV many, many times! I count myself one lucky lady to be able to call her my neighbor and my friend!

Guys ..... it's been ages since I've blogged! Blame the baby, work, school, the holidays, and maybe the fact that I find blogging and social media in general for my business just bleh. It doesn't mean it's not insanely important ... because it IS! I just need to resolve to be better about it and post some great shoots because they're happening all the time! 

This is one of those shoots. Luv + Ry are two beautiful people who have known each other since they were teens! They're sooooooo comfortable with each other so it made photographing them a cinch! Congrats you two on your engagements!

Newborns. They are perfection in every single way. When I went to photograph this tiny 3-week old baby I didn't realize how much I would ache for those long nights and everything that comes with the newborn phase! I melted when I held her in my arms and I actually, momentarily wished Elliot was new again. Like, so new he can't do anything, new. I know every new mom is exhausted, and maybe that's why we can look back so fondly because we all know how tough, yet rewarding motherhood is.

This happy happy family made for beautiful sweet photos. Thank you for letting me be a part of your morning and to meet your sweet babes!

This time of year is the time for family photos! Everyone here in Nevada craves the cooler temperatures and the beautiful desert scenery! This was no exception! What is more "Vegas" than desert? It was a great spot and the family was such a gorgeous pop of bright!
