Family Session - Tempe Town Lake

Tempe Town Lake is a location

that is harder for me to shoot

I'm not sure why 

but thankfully

the Arana family was awesome and 

helped capture some great shots

even with wind & cold weather!

These are only a few pictures

 from the first 1/2 of their session.. 

to be continued....

:)

Family Photo Session - Family means...

Putting your arms around each other

and being there

Had a blast at this session

Thank you, Michele!!!

I loved this location

that the Schulte family picked out

It was perfect for the kiddos

they explored all over

and gave just enough smiles

for a great session

We found a tee pee!

and a boat.. on dry land but it didn't stop the kids from paddling :)

Mom & dad were playful too

So much fun!
