Bridals..... Take 2!

This was quite the task to get these bridals done! We were going to try and go up north a little to try and get out of this heat and get more green then desert in the pictures; that wasn't working for us. Yesterday we drove up north, found a spot, as soon as we got out of the car to get the wedding clothes on.... down pour! It was raining pretty good. We tried to wait out the rain while watching the sun go down until we had no more light! So we decided to try again today.

After seeing a very likely chance for more rain up north, we picked somewhere closer to home. We get to this country club and as soon as I start helping lace up the dress... Fire alarm!!!

I think these were well worth it though because I love how they turned out!!!

First up: My Favorite!!

Such a cute Family

This family was so much fun and all of these

kids were so easy to work with!!! We had a great time in the heat; poor babies were so hot!

Good ol' Arizona right? I have NEVER done this

many pictures in a sneak peek,

but I just couldn't help it!

Take a look at this good looking kid!

Baby Blake

My cousin and his wife just welcomed their new little boy. He was having a rough time and didn't get to come home right away and we were hoping to get a shoot in while I was in Utah for only a couple days. Well prayers work and he is healthy and was able to come home the day before I left. We did the shoot about an hour after he got home. He is so cute! Congrats you guys; love you!

I absolutely LOVE this first one!

Love these toes

...and these cheeks!

Utah

I was able to go up to Utah last weekend for some family things and a couple shoots. It was gorgeous up there. The drive up was beautiful! Since there has been so much rain this year, it was so green. Plus I went crazy with all the MANY options of shoot locations! There are pretty much 100 location spots per mile in Utah. It would be so easy! You want green? Easy! In Arizona it's a challenge to find awesome locations. Oh the possibilities; I will be going back to Utah in a few months. Email me if you want to schedule something so I know how long to make the trip. madsenphoto at hotmail dot com.

Here are a couple of cute kids! This little boy was so tiny and new. His sister loved to give him kisses and hugs. Sorry for leaving your girl in a sugar high, we got some good ones though! Enjoy the sneak peek!

Cameron and Kalie ~ Bridals

What a fun couple!!! Thank you Cam and Kalie for dealing with the HEAT!!! We will do anything to get a good shot, deal with many bugs by the water, a water snake charging the bride, me sitting on my 6'6'' husband's shoulders over the water (where the snake just was) to get a better angle. We had a great time. Can't wait for your wedding you guys! The count down is on!

Here is my favorite from the shoot! Gorgeous couple!

Baby Noah

This is a sweet 1 week old baby boy. He is the strongest little baby I've ever met; especially for only being a week old.  It took a little work to get him to go to sleep, but he was a very content baby regardless.

His big sister has quite the big blue eyes!  Gorgeous right?!  She was in awe of her new baby brother and wanted to show us his nose, belly button, and would keep trying to calm him down when he got fussy.  She is adorable!

I can't get enough of these last two of her.
