Las Vegas Children’s Photographer, My little Hawklet

My little kindergartner is about to graduate! UGH!! How did the year go so fast? Class of 2023… goodness that makes me feel old!

We had the amazing opportunity of attending the North West Career and Technical Academy’s kindergarten program this year. It’s been awesome! Riley has loved going there, he loves his teachers and he loves his “big friends” the high school students. NWCTA is a high school, and they have an early childhood development program. The high school students and teachers help run the program with specials taught by the high school teachers (music, library and P.E.) and extra small groups run by the high students. The mascot of the school is the hawk, so they called their little kindergartners the hawkletts!  So, here is my little hawklet in his cute cap and gown!

 

Beautiful Models: Erin Hatch Photo shoot, Dry Lake Beds

My dear crazy photo friend Erin Hatch decided it would be fun to grab a couple of fellow photographers, some cute models, and check out the dry lake beds near Jean, Nevada. It was such a fun adventure, not for the faint of heart (just kidding Erin!) It was an amazing shoot! So much fun to meet other photographers in the area, and have the chance to take pictures of people who aren’t afraid of the camera! What a blast! What a setting! It was so beautiful! These pictures were so much fun to edit!  Thanks Erin for setting everything up!

These are my best shoots from the day:

This is my amazing cousin Mariah McBride. She is a blast to work with!  The picture below is my favorite of the whole shoot!

The is Denise Escobar. She just got home from a trip to Florida with a gorgeous tan! She was so cute. She couldn’t stop smiling! The clothes were so fun out there, they really popped!

These two girls are so beautiful! They were a joy to shoot and I was so grateful for the chance to do so!

Las Vegas Photographer, Family K

This was a fun little informal group of pictures I took at our family’s annual Easter egg hunt. My niece wanted this special picture. There are 12 years between her mom and her aunt, 12 years between her aunt and her, and 12 years between her and my littlest girl. Kind of funny huh? Anyway, it was fun to finally have everyone in the same place!

I also snagged my youngest nephew for a quick couple of shots. He is so cute! And such amazing eyes!

Las Vegas Children Photographer, Easter Formals

I got my little band of kidos and braved an afternoon in their brand new Easter clothes in the grass. I was so excited about how these turned out! It was a challenge, but with kids you never know what you are going to get!

Las Vegas Children’s Photographer, Beautiful Family Shoot

My sweet friend Erin, at Erin Hatch Photography asked me to 2nd shoot on one of her spring mini shoots. They were the cutest family! Thanks Erin for inviting me, the lighting was amazing!
