2026 Fall Photo Schedule for Phoenix and Prescott area

Hi friends!! it’s that time of year again,

time to schedule Fall Photos!

I can’t believe that this time last year, Erik and I were exploring Europe and getting photos in Paris!! It seems like just yesterday and also so long ago. I cannot wait to go back! This year, we are switching gears and going on an adventure road trip with the boys. Andrew is going to a primitive skills camp with our good friends in Idaho in September, and then we are going to meet up with them in Lo Lo Springs Montana to explore! We are then going over to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. I CANNOT WAIT!!! I am not so excited about the days of traveling in the carβ€”-holding still for hours on end is NOT my favorite! So if you have any great audiobooks or killer song playlists, PLEASE SHARE :)


I LOVE living up north in the quad cities area of Prescott and enjoy shooting up here in nature with all of the green trees. My backyard is my favorite place to shoot!! I love sharing our space and our home with you all too! I know the chickens are always a big hit with the kids!! I am hoping to be able to rent out our space to local photographers soon too! This year, I bought a VW bus!! She’s so cute and has a ton of personalityβ€”and by personality, I mean she’s a little rough around the edges but soooooo FUN!! The bus is always an option to grab some pics while you’re here for a shoot!! This spring we hope to have our GLASS HOUSE up and ready for photos. It’s going to be BEAUTIFUL!! It will also be available to rent out for events! Lots of fun things coming for our little Praskins’ Ranch in Dewey-Humboldt.


This year, I am venturing down to the Phoenix and Surprise/Waddell area for some shoots too!! Weekends seem to go fast and I know schedules are crazy, so if you want to get on the books, message me A.S.A.P! All dates are first come first served and require a $100 deposit to hold your spot. I do have limited availability on weekends, but I am a little more flexible during the week on Tuesdays and Thursdays!!
