Hi! I’m Laura, an on-location photographer serving Phoenix, Scottsdale, Chandler, Mesa, Tempe, Gilbert and the surrounding East Valley. I specialize in maternity, newborns, children, engagements, high school seniors and families and have a fun, modern and funky style.
I am the mother of two amazing children, Jackson (6) and Addison ( 4). I love Starbucks, eighties music, techno and every other type of music in between, traveling, speaking Spanish and reading a good book on a rainy day (not that I have time anymore as a mom!). I love what I do today as a mom and a photographer, but I still miss my students and being a teacher. I went to college in Washington, D.C. and was an intern on Capitol Hill and in the State Department–my intended career was to become a Foreign Service Officer. I am an army brat and have moved seventeen times and wouldn’t change it for the world. I treasure my friendships and love a good laugh as much as I love heartfelt talks. I am absolutely addicted to taking photographs, and I never want to miss a moment. I see the world as a photograph, and I am constantly thinking how I can make what I see into a work of art. I love trying new ideas and personalizing sessions, and would love to capture your moments and turn them into tangible memories that you will look back on and treasure forever.

Heather G. - You look like a freakin supermodel here! Seriously, wowza!
Stephanie Robinson - I am just starting out as a professional photographer (well a ‘paid’ one anyway). I am based near Manchester, England and have mainly done studio work but really want to branch out in on-location stuff – you’re site has inspired me to get started!
Thanks.
Debbie Tibbs - Hi,
Do you have any workshops coming up?
Thanks,
