So how did I get into photography? There's more backstory in my "fun facts" section. Initially I was photographing weddings, until I had my daughters and started photographing them. I realized how much I loved capturing my kids and decided I wanted to be able to capture those moments for other families!

I love to laugh and have a good time, I'm silly and loud. My family and friends are EVERYTHING to me and I really enjoy meeting new people (which is why I love my job so much). I don't know how to tell a short story - every detail is important to me. 

 




so glad you are here!

I'm DesirĂ©e - mama, wife and photographer 

Welcome Friend!

Arizona natives are pretty rare- or so I've heard! I'm a fifth generation Arizona native...but whats even crazier is I've only ever been to the Grand Canyon once! I need to explore my state more...

i've lived in arizona my entire life.

Don't get me wrong, I love the ocean and the beach - but if I can't see my feet I won't get in. My husband and I went to Maui for our honeymoon and we went snorkeling (I was on high alert) and I saw a sea turtle coming towards us - I thought it was a shark and I've never swam so fast in my life. 


being in the ocean terrifies me.

Eislee and London, they are 23 months apart to the day. They make me laugh harder than anyone I know and I'm obsessed with them.  

I have two young daughters. 

I'm goofy and outspoken, my husband is quiet and reserved. We met at a bar back in college, for those of you who used to go to Mill ave. remember the Tavern? Yeah, thats where we met haha! We were friends for a year and then decided to give the dating thing a go. And the rest is history...

My Husband and I couldn't be more opposite. 

I graduated from ASU (go sundevils!!) in 2008 with a bachelor of fine arts in photography... I'm talking darkroom and film - no digital. I think this is why I love black and white photography so much. It's timeless. 

I have a bachelor of fine arts in photography

A photo session should be fun and exciting, you should leave your session eagerly waiting to receive your images. These images help tell a story of your family, here and now. This is what I capture.
