Arizona is Hot but amazing.

So i had a a fun time this last weekend because I got to go home to Phoenix to see my cousin get married (and of course take his wedding pictures!). I always get so happy to go home even if it is a very quick trip. I got into town on saturday night and I got to hang out with me parents and brothers and sister for a family/birthday dinner! It was my mom's 50th birthday and my dad's 48th birthday only 4 days after hers so we celebrated them together. Thanks to Nikki and Jake we had a wonderful dinner then we did some swimming and present opening! I had a great time!






Since Russ was not able to come down with me I had my whole family say a special hello!

Then Sunday I shot Jeremy's and Kelly's beautiful wedding! I have a special bond with them because they got married at the same place I had my reception at (which makes sense because they both work there!) and it gave me some sweet memories. They wedding was awesome and I got some great shots! you will have to stay tuned to see those pictures but here is a picture of the new Mr. and Mrs Jeremy Statzer!

Later that night my good friend Ashley came over and we had some fun! My mom just got a new horse Oreo so we went in the backyard to feed the horses. Well this was before I knew that Ashley was scared of horses, so getting her to feed them was quite a challenge. Lacey finally came out to help and we literally had to drag her over to the horses. It was HILARIOUS! She actually said "don't let him get my thumb." She thought the horses were going to bite her fingers off. Then we took a few more goofy pictures inside. I love you ashley!

On Monday I got to go take a few head shots for my dad's office and then head over to Allisons house to see her before I leave! I had to take some pictures of Sam (because he is just so dang cute) because Allison is getting worried that he is just growing up too fast. Allison had the cutest idea and i LOVED how the pictures tuned out! I'll give you all a sneeky peek of this shoot too!


I was getting a little hungry so I went to the fridge and found a disgusting mess. I kept telling her that this was gross. I can blog this now because if you go to allison's recent post she has already cleaned it so GOOD JOB!




Here is our quick visitation photoshoot. the eyebrow one was so so funny!




So i got to say hello and goodbye in enough time to take off to the airport. I had such a great time and can't wait to come back again.....which won't be for a while....sad, but I have been in high spirits this week! Just ask Russ i think I have been extra nice to him this week. I did miss him you know! Ok that is all for now! Stay tuned for more adventures of Sorensen life.

Light painting strikes again!

So I told Linsey that she should invite me to her next fun photoshoot! So she called me up and we went out and did some light painting. Russ was excited because he loves light paining too! It's really fun! So we went out and scoped out a few places and found this abandoned building right off a main road. So of course in the state of Utah if you are doing anything at night especially something that involves flashlights or flashing red light, green and purple lights then you are going to get some unwanted attention. Lindsey being the wimp she is, was constantly looking over her shoulder because she was so scared! haha! the cops showed up and said to stop flashing our "red LED lights" at oncoming traffic and asked us if we had permission to be on their property. It was lame and Lindsey probably was peeing her pants. haha. Then some old guy across the street (that we could not see) started yelling at us so go away and stop causing trouble. People are so weird in UTAH. So yah, since we kept getting bothered he changed location where we smelled an unpleasant odor of a nearby skunk. Russ was positive that it was not a skunk but he was crazy, we all knew it was a skunk and we tried to stir clear. So yah, we ran into a few weird things that night but we still had fun and we had a relatively successful night!

This one is russ, and he is like a scary serial killer or something.

I love this one so much that i put two edits of it. it's so freakin creepy isnt it!?!?

This was her idea. i think it turned out pretty cool!

This was Russ's idea. it just adds to our creepy collection of pictures.

I saw this light thing on another photographers website and thought I would give it a try. I think they look pretty neat!

Russ painted an american flag on the silo with a flashlight with different color lights. It looks cool huh?! That was a good idea russ! good job!

This one need a little work but it's really fun!
