There is a profound grace when we shed the noise of the world for a moment, much like a forest stripping away its autumn colors to reveal the enduring silver of aspens beneath. When I look at a portrait of Kyrie leaning against the pale aspen bark, caught in a moment of unguarded joy, I do not just see a face—I see a moment of tranquil beauty in an unfolding story.

We are all moving so quickly through these seasons of our lives. Yet, when she looks softly into the distance or is captured in a moment of thought, time seems to stand still just for a moment. There is a deep, resonant hope in knowing that our most genuine selves can be preserved with such artistry, capturing an authentic story that will outlast the moment.

Everyone deserves to be seen this clearly. I believe we all need a tangible reminder of who we are, that we smile with our whole being, that our presence matters. A true portrait is not just a photograph; it is a quiet defiance of time, a legacy handed down to the people who will one day search for our faces and rediscover their own inner peace and joy.

High horsepower meets classic steel.

From sun-baked desert patina in Seligman to liquid candy-red reflections in Kingman, the spirit of Route 66 lives on in this blown Chevy restomod at Lewis Kingman Park during the Route 66 Centennial festivities.

Every single inch of this build is a playground for the eyes—from that twin-carb supercharger to the vintage Shark gauges and hand-laced leather covers on the tailgate chains. Automotive photography is all about how reflections contour across custom body lines, and this truck didn't miss.

Swipe through to Slide 5 for that mirror reflection detail—catching the car show crowd in the glass.

Which detail catches your eye first: that polished blower or the stamped red tailgate? ⬅️

Did you know Historic Route 66 is celebrating its 100th Anniversary this year? 🚗🗺️

I took a drive up to Seligman, Arizona this weekend to capture the centennial celebrations. If you’ve never spent time in Seligman, it feels like stepping straight into a living time capsule. I spent a couple of hours photographing the weathered vintage trucks, the legendary Delgadillo's Snow Cap, and the quirky roadside art that gives this town its heartbeat.

Check out the detail on that vintage Chevy flatbed—from the cartoon windshield eyes down to the rusted fender badge, every inch tells a century-old story.

Seligman is especially meaningful because it’s where Angel Delgadillo led the movement to designate Route 66 as historic after the interstate bypassed it. It’s always a great reminder to slow down and take the two-lane highway instead of the freeway.

"Get your kicks on Route 66!" 🚗💋

A little vintage glam with one of the pin-up models at the Route 66 Festival in Kingman, AZ! Nothing says classic Americana quite like chrome curves, classic pastel blue, and timeless style.

Celebrating 100 years of the Mother Road!

🛣️✨Spent an incredible time exploring and capturing the spirit of Route 66 around Kingman, Arizona, as part of a special trip with the AZ Professional Photographers of America to mark the upcoming Route 66 Centennial.

From twilight long-exposure light trails along the highway to early morning desert light and roadside details, this stretch of historic pavement never disappoints. Swipe through the carousel:

Had a beautiful day near the Snowbowl in Flagstaff. The bright yellow of the aspens in fall is spectacular. Here’s just a quick cell phone photo. Unfortunately we got rained out, but still got some cool portraits — results to follow, so stay tuned. Call to book your fall portrait session — (480) 257-6757

Your team page has a headshot from 2019, a cropped vacation photo, and a new hire standing in front of a different wall than everyone else. You know it. Your visitors can tell. And somehow it never makes it onto the to-do list in the spring.

Q4 is when it can. If there’s money left in this year’s budget, a date reserved now is a 2026 expense, and the shoot itself happens in January or February, when your team is back and the new year’s page is about to go live.

Here’s what the day looks like: I come to your office, set up in a corner, and shoot tethered, so each person sees their images on the spot and chooses their own. Hair and makeup touch-ups are on hand, nobody leaves the building, and the whole thing fits around a normal workday. You end up with one consistent look across the entire team, instead of seven photographers’ worth of lighting.

If your leadership team wants the full portrait experience for the website, press, and speaking bios, executive portraits can be booked alongside.

Call to reserve your January or February date — (480) 257-6757.

Fall in Arizona can mean 88 degrees in the Valley and 50 up north, sometimes on the same day. Most wardrobe advice online was written for Vermont. This is the version that works here. Save it for the night before your session.

I just saw the first photos from Arizona Snowbowl: a couple inches of snow overnight, and yellow aspens underneath it. Fall in Arizona doesn't ease in. It shows up all at once and leaves just as fast.

If you've been saying you'd do family portraits "when it cools down," or you have a senior in the Class of 2027 and this year is moving faster than the last seventeen combined, this is the window. It won't wait for anyone.

Here's how it works. We plan everything now: outfits, location, the whole day, with hair and makeup coming along. The high country turns first, and Oak Creek Canyon and the Mogollon Rim usually follow later in October. When the color peaks where we're headed, I text you a day or two ahead, and we jet north.

The color only lasts a couple of weeks, so I'm taking three of these sessions this fall. If one of them should be yours, call me.
