This might be one of my favorite sessions! First, I LOVE the Phon D Sutton area of the Salt River. It’s a bit of a drive out of the city, but the views are SO worth it! You’ve got desert, water, mountains, trees, all of it! It makes it look like you went to multiple locations when you really just stayed in one place! Some people are afraid of the desert, and rightfully so (snakes and scorpions, no thanks!), however this family was so adventurous! Don’t be fooled by these cute girls in their pink dresses! They were scouting all over this area, picking up rocks along the water and climbing on boulders.

I loved meeting the Peterson family and getting to know them! They are so fun and their girls quickly became my little buddies!
