When Country meets City | Destination Engagement Photographer | Liz Applegate

I drove down to Lindrith, NM last Thursday for this engagement shoot. As I was driving down I saw lots of juniper and lots of shrubs, but really not a whole lot else. I was getting really worried, but when I showed up at Cory's family ranch, voila! they had ALL kinds of fun things to shoot.

Let me tell you a little bit about this couple. She drives a Beamer and wears turquoise leopard high heels. When he is at home (the ranch) he wears his cowboy hat, boots and jeans. But Cory is kind of a conundrum! In his other life (the one he lives day to day) he is a pro golfer -- FOR A LIVING! He gets to play golf and do it for money. What would that be like -- doing what you like to do for a living (oh wait! that's what *I* get to do!). Anyway, we had such a great time and got such great shots. What a perfect couple these two make. Enjoy.

This family was fantastic! I loved the way the mom and dad interacted with their kids. There was so much love you could just feel it oozing! Thanks again Meredith and Nelson for coming in so we could document this time of life for your little guys.

Matthew - newborn | Farmington Newborn Photographer | Liz Applegate

So I LOVE newborn shoots. They are a little trickier than other shoots and take so much longer than the others, but I just LOVE. LOVE. LOVE the smell and aura of new little babies. Something about having just come from heaven makes them so loveable. Anyway, this little guy was NOT going to go to sleep for us -- and he was only 7 days old. Mom and I worked so long and finally at 11:00 p.m. at night we called it a wrap. (I have never seen a baby SMILE at 7 days old -- and these were full on smiles, not "gas" smiles, lol). HOWEVER, we got such sweet pictures of this little darling that it was all worth it in the end. Love you little Matthew. (Oh, of course big sister had to be included too!)

I was so happy to see little Liam back again for his 3 months. He has filled out and is such a cutie! Here are some pics of him and his darling sister Peyton. So cute...

Aah! The senior season! I love Seniors! You say smile, they smile! You say, give me a serious look...they give you a serious look. I love seniors.

This is Kim, the start of the senior season. Loved working with her. She is so cute and photogenic. So fun to work with her. Enjoy the sneak peek.

Addison 8 Months

This is a little girl that came in with her mom and dad for her 8 month shoot. She's gotten so big since her last shoot. Just one more shoot left, sniff sniff.

Here's a darling little girl that I shot. In a good way. She had so many different faces I could've kept her going all day. Loved her.
