We are....RATON! - NM Children's Photographer

Growing up in a miliary family allowed me many wonderful opportunities. However, the constant moving never really allowed me to grow up with any one group of friends. I seemed to know everybody kind of and nobody really well.

It is the one thing I enjoy most about small town living. And part of the reason I enjoy watching my kids play sports. The boys below are the same boys my son learned to play football with, and will be the same boys he plays his final high school baseball game with in eight short years.

How we got so lucky, with a group of terrific kids, I will never know. But it is a joy to see them growing into young men with respect for themselves, their team and their families. And they play a mean game of baseball too!

I feel especially lucky each All Star season, when their parents graciously allow me to do something a little more artistic with their team photos. I love the scrappy feel the black and white image gives the team and I adore their attitudes!

Thank you boys for allowing me to take your team photos...and play tough!
