On November 20, 2010, Maricopa County held its annual Adoption Day when all families adopting arrive at the Juvenile Courthouse to finalize what has always been a long process by a lot of patient and very loving families. Not only was this day amazing in itself, but Maricopa County held over 450 adoptions that day, […]

Rudabeh came to me needing fresh updated headshots for work. She’s already using them for all her needs and getting great compliments. The shoot itself was a great time as always and I delivered a disc of the fully edited shots after a few days of her selecting which shots she wanted. Thanks Rudabeh! That […]

In the left photo above I added some […]
