Mackenzie is my sister Brooke’s niece. ??So that makes me a bit of a surrogate Aunt too right? ??I have known this beautiful young lady since she was born after all.

Believe it or not, Mackenzie was very nervous about her session. ??While driving to our spot, she was downright fluttery. ?? She had no need for apprehension either. ??She is such a natural. ??Mackenzie is a real and completely authentic young woman. ??No pretense. ??Her energy, zest for life, and infectious joy spilled out over her whole session. ??In fact, with the exception of Ty, Mackenzie may have the most joy filled spirit I have encountered. ??The glass was half full on every topic (and Mackenzie and I can chat up a storm so we covered an abundance of topics both the mundane and significant). ??I left feeling like I had been given the gift of the evening. ??Time with Mackenzie is very well spent.

Sometimes the wind can drive ya a little crazy. ??Sometimes it is AMAZING.

And we were even blessed with a beautiful Arizona sunset.

See what I am talking about? ??She is radiant and her joy is contagious.

Much love to you sweet girl. ??Wishing you the very best in this new and amazing season of life. ??XXXOOO.
