I am always a proud parent of our Wildcats and I love to watch them through my lens putting their all into the game but on this particular night I have to say these lady Wildcats made me beyond proud.

Each and every one of these girls stepped onto the field with all their heart. Such an amazing thing to watch; win or lose!

These images speak for themselves as Joanna fights for her piece of the field. Beautifully in motion!

My daughter, #17 above, played like I have never seen before and I can only hope she continues to find the strength and drive to continue to grow. Twentynine Palms Soccer Photography-9

My photography began with my own kids and all these boys that have played sports with my son for many years! I love every opportunity to get out and take action shots of these kids!

They always play with their hearts on their sleeves! Each of them finding thier own place amoung this team. These boys have had some great coaches through the years but have not had te consistency that is paramount to great teams, they have overcome and made this their team. As my own son’s time comes to an end this season I look forward to continuing to watch this team grow!

I have watched these girls grow and become an amazing set of team mates over the years. They have never had it easy as they have changed coaches, obviously players and they are generally counted as the under dog but so many of these girls have played with all their heart for so many years it is an honor to watch them. They have grown,they have stumbled but at the end of the day or the game they are all 29 Palms Wildcats!

This the boys Wildcat’s soccer team! My son has played on this team for all 4 years of his high school career! I have enjoyed watching every minute of it! Cannot believe that this is the last year he will play!

These boys fight their way through each game, finding new intensity and fight for something that they all love; SOCCER!

My kids play on both the boys and girls soccer teams for Twentynine Palms High School and it is always my pleasure to capture their games through photographs. There is something that image catches, their intesity.

These girls have heart, they get in there and push themselves and each other to make a difference for themselves, their team and their high school experience! Twentynine Palms High School Soccer Photographs-11

Introducing Some Great Couple Shots

Couples always offer such a varing experience in how I photograph. From the couples who just just found each other to those who have spent many moments together there is something magical about capturing the emotions related to them – to who they are when they touch!

Whether I get to snap a quick shot while the kids are running around or I have a session with just the couple tehmselves there is always a moment where you can watch the connection and lucky enough I can see the beauty through my lens!

Love, smiles, sparks, whatever I can capture, I am honored. Another chance that so often isn’t taken but should be so cherished. Take a moment, look eachother in the eyes; smile, laugh, or notice something new but either way enjoy it for the moment that it is!

Some Senior Favorites

2013 for me is going to be a year of change and really trying not to cry everytime my son, who is 17, does something! I am so excited to see him head into the world, discover, and find out who he is; just wish as mom it didn’t evoke so many emotions 🙂

This collage is a few favorites over the past two years of senior session photos! One of the bonuses to living in a small town is that I have watched many of these kids grow up with my own kids, I even get to see them now and again as young adults.
