Christmas Eve in Old Mesilla

The whole town showed up among hundreds of glowing luminarias to sing Christmas carols and just to stroll. Pretty perfect.

There's Just Something About These New Mexico Sunsets...

Las Cruces, Looking Toward Mesilla

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Cheer




This cozy winter scene was shot from my daughter, Heather's home in Utah last week

Cole's 2nd Birthday

What could be more fun and satisfying than getting to be there for your two year old grandson's birthday?!




"Hi, Grandma!"












And all these balloons are mine! (Says Wanda, the Westie)


"Thank You"

St. George Temple in Winter - Utah

If you want to find amazing architecture in interesting places you'll never be disappointed by checking out the temples of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. This one is in St. George, Utah, built in 1877.

Stormy New Mexico Skies

I love the sky in New Mexico! So many moods -- so much beauty. More to come!

Family Photo Session, Las Cruces, New Mexico

I have no words to adequately describe this sweet and wonderful family! Let me just say, I LOVED taking their family photos and I sincerely hope that their "awesome-ness" will shine through in these images. It's why I love photography. It can say all I want to without the words...

Pioneer Park -- Las Cruces. And if some of them look familiar, yes, that's Felicia, Dave, and Kayden, featured in another photo shoot!

Sharing Stories at the Park

I was checking out Pioneer Park in Las Cruces for a photo shoot and these two men caught my eye. They were totally enjoying just kicking back and shooting the breeze. I think I need to do more of that...oh, and don't you think the guy on the bench looks a little like George Clooney?

The ONE Girl Cousin (at the time)

Raleigh (from Hawaii) giving a tender and loving greeting to cousin Ruby (from San Diego) -- the only girl cousin, at time of photo, in the midst of lots of boys! Ruby now has a baby sister...

Birds, Birds, and More Birds!

Okay, I just HAD to add three more...


Just taking a walk.


Wintering Northern Pintail -- such pretty ducks!
