Groundbreaking

Posted by Chris H. on November 9, 2009

Over the weekend I photographed a moving groundbreaking ceremony for a new LDS church building not far from where I live. Despite the early hour, close to a thousand people showed up to celebrate this event and to remember the sacrifices of the pioneers who settled this community more than 130 years ago.

East Coast Kids – Arizona Family Photographer

Posted by Chris H. on October 27, 2009

I had the chance to photograph a couple of beautiful children while on a recent trip to New England. I love these images, because they capture the kids before they start posing for the camera. As a result the photographs have a feeling of spontaneity and authenticity. It feels like we’re seeing the children as they really are.

Butterfly and Free – Arizona Event Photographer

Posted by Chris H. on October 19, 2009

This past weekend I photographed the Arizona state high school swimming championships for divisions 1A to 3A, which are the smaller schools in the state.  Some great swims, including several state records.  The abilities of the swimmers were all over the map, but the best of them were incredibly graceful and powerful, a joy to watch.  Here are a couple of my favorites:
