Sweet, patient, loveable GINGER!

 

(The caption on this should go something like this—“I washed my paws, can I touch the puppy now?”

 

 

If I had something this cute running around my house, I wouldn’t get ANYthing done!

You’ve stolen my heart Miss Ellie Mae.  And Ginger is right there with you!

Just a Little

 

Just a little past 7 months.

Just a little sister.

Just a little bit mobile.

Just a little bit spoiled.

Just the best little thing that has happened in her family!

The yellow Signs of Summer 2012

 

Shortly before the dragon’s breath reaches the desert valley floor, there are a few natural indicators that summer is nearly here.  The Sweet Acacia and the Palo Verde are just two of them.

 

Once we smell the deliciously fragrant yellow blossom balls of  the Sweet Acacia, it is certain that summer is only weeks away.  It will forever remind me of the hot August day that we moved here from the Rocky Mountains.

 

 

 

The color of the green skinned Palo Verde with brilliant yellow flowers is so naturally saturated against the contrasting blue sky that my visual sensors are almost overwhelmed.   A breezy day turns into a snowfall of sun colored blossoms.

 

And now the natural indicators, the dragon’s breath and the air conditioner have all indicated that summer is here.

American Brittany. Beautiful. {Arizona Pet Photographer}

Meet 7 year old American Brittany, Kadie.

 

She is my new favorite Ginger.  I love saying Ginger.  I say it in a British accent—Jinja.

 

“Hey, did you see that lively jinja on a walk?”

“Come here little jinja, can I pet you for a year?”

“Your jinja fur matches your brown eyes.”

 

Jinja, jinja, jinja.

 

Ok.  I am done now.

 

Kadie responds to “lizard,” “cookie” and “watch” and has THE softest fur.  She is a great hiking companion and LOVES to be outside.

 

I think she gets her sweetness from her owners.  Love you guys!

 

And, I love you Jinja Kadie.

Got noticed.

Here (brothers and bug)

 

and here (banana). 

 

The only thing better than the satisfaction I get from taking and enjoying pictures, is finding others who enjoy them too. 

I really love the great information I have gotten from I Heart Faces and Pioneer Woman.  They helped me learn how to be a photographer, because 3 1/2 years ago, I knew NOTHING about DSLRs.  If you are looking for simple and easy to understand tutorials on  photography, those two places are my favs.

 

Happy picture taking!

Uninvited Guests. {Arizona Teen Photographer}

What would you do if you had uninvited guests make an entrance into your photo shoot?

 

I was invited.  I have the camera.

She was invited.  She has the sweetness, beauty and grace of a young lady who will soon be turning 16.

 

 

Beauty!

 

 

 

Grace!

 

 

 

And sweetness.

 

And now the uninvited guests are about to arrive

.

NOW! 

And when beauty, grace and sweetness saw the look on my face of “Oh.  My.  Gosh.  Oh. My. Gosh.  Oh. My. Gosh.” which she misread as horror (I obviously need to work on my facial expressions), she jumped out of the water until she too saw our uninvited guests.

They are wild, yes, I said WILD mustangs! 

Here is a great read about them.  

For me, this was a dream come true.  A check mark on the bucket list I guess I need to start.

For beauty, grace and sweetness?  The most amazing background props EVER!

And then our uninvited guests invited us to stay a while.

So we did.

 

 

 

(P.S. I know her dad, he will be accepting applications for potential suitors when she is about 18. I also know he probably owns a machete.)
