The Vampires of Dance//Arizona child photographer

Darkness falls

and the vampires rise.

to dance on their graves

and to slay in so many ways.

This group is a challenge. Some of the girls on the squad are in their 3rd year with me and have done over 10 dance sessions in that time and the challenge arises in coming up with concepts that are totally unique and completely different so their portfolios stay fresh and fun and completely unique.

Two years ago we did this super fun Hocus Pocus session with the squad and I thought it was time we did another Halloween session. So I turned to Vampires thinking because I thought the use of capes would be fun for the dancers to play with in their posing.

The girls and their moms knocked these looks out of the park. 5 vampires and one Vamp Bat showed up to play. Full of creative ideas we danced and posed at the Meadow in the fading light creating yet another fun memory that I will treasure forever.

A little mermaid inspired session//Arizona creative child photographer

Eā€™s mom reached out wanting to set up something special for her. Being the younger sister, she had never really had an opportunity to do a solo session and mom felt it was time to capture something that was truly unique and her.

While mom loved the Rapunzel session I had recently done, I felt E needed something that was truly all her own and I knew she had a deep fondness for the little mermaid. Mom found a couple of incredible little Mermaid dresses from the Only Little Once collection and we opted for the classic version feeling it fit the setting a little better. With only days to the session she had it expedited so we could make all of our dreams come true.

And of course I could not resist the urge to give her a couple of truly fanciful Mermaid edits as well.
