Last week I photographed Cody, a senior from Mingus Union High School in Cottonwood, Arizona.
Cody is a great guy who is currently on the swim and wrestling teams at Mingus.
He is also on the worship team at church, and will be studying to be a youth pastor when he heads off to college next year.
I hope you enjoy your sneak peek Cody, and thanks for all the funny stories!!

I photographed Emily a senior from Flagstaff High School last week who is such a sweet girl, and absolutely stunning!!!
I met Emily and her family at Page Springs Vineyards & Cellars for our shoot. The winery is such a beautiful location with some great views of Oak Creek, and the light was amazing!!!
I loved meeting you and your family Emily, and I hope you enjoy your photos.

A year ago I received an email…a couple who are currently serving our country in the US Navy were looking for a photographer. A few short weeks later I would meet Sarah & Ben when they both came home on leave before Ben was to be shipped out for 9 months. Right by her mothers side was beautiful little Chaeli whose smile could light up a room!! The engagement photos we got that day were so touching. Ben’s love for Sarah & Chaeli was evident in every shot.
Sarah had a pretty bad break and infection in her foot just weeks before the wedding that she has been trying to deal with. You would never guess the pain she must have been in, but instead you see the beauty and grace which is Sarah. Somewhere along the way it changed from client to friend, and so to see this family become one was truly a joy for me and all the others who celebrated with them on their special day! Thank you Ben & Sarah for choosing me to capture your families beginning as I am sure you will all have a beautiful and loving life together.
XOXO, J

A self-proclaimed hippie has never been any more adorable!
I was very excited to meet with Alina and her mom last week for her senior shoot, and Jerome, AZ offered the perfect backdrop for her photos.
Congratulations on your upcoming graduation Alina, and I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!
