parenthood

an exquisite love

I focus on parenthood in all of my lifestyle sessions by curating poses that highlight those tender moments between parent and child.

Parenthood is such an exquisite form of  love, and with our babies changing and growing so fast it's extra important to take time to photograph this moment and all the milestones through all the years.

Being a mom is wonderful, but wow, it's a lot. We work hard to grow and raise our children; to empower them, to give them confidence and to thrive. Being a mom is work, but the most beautiful work. 

It's easy to get lost in the crazy of daily routines: wake up, breakfast, to school, to work, clean the house, school pick up, swim lessons, piano lessons, sports, homework, dinner, bed time...and repeat.

TEMPE, ARIZONA ANNIVESARY

back to the galleries

Danell was somehow able to capture the heart of my twins and the joy of being their Mom... She paid attention to small details like pockets being out, bunnies falling down, helping me feel confident in my post-baby body, soft lighting, privacy while being so public and so much more... We loved her! And most importantly, my very finicky 1 year old boys loved her... Thank you, Danell! You're amazing!

THEY HAVE THE KINDEST THINGS TO SAY

We've had Danell take our family photos twice so far and have been so delighted with the results. She is very professional but it doesn't keep her from being warm and personable while she works. She makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera! She is AMAZING with kids! Her photos have captured our family's story at 2 very different locations- a NICU room when our youngest daughter arrived 2 months early and a canola field when we were back in our town as a whole family again. We will continue to have her be our first choice photographer for other important milestones and special occasions.

THEY HAVE THE KINDEST THINGS TO SAY

We are so happy with our images we received from Danell. She went over and beyond to make our session a great one. My little boys aren't the easiest to photograph, but she was able to get some awesome shots. This is the second time we have had Danell capture our keepsakes, and we will continue to use her in the future. She easily adapts to changes in weather conditions and/or scenery. She does great with children of all ages, and adult. She has one of the friendliest attitudes in the industry, and a smile that reels you in. Thank you, Danell, for our awesome photos that we will cherish.

I can't even put into words how much I love working with Danell!! She is the PERFECT fit for our family- and I bet everyone will say the exact same. She is great with kids and executes any ideas I have perfectly! As soon as we finish one session, I'm already counting down the days til the next one. I HIGHLY recommend!!!!
