I’ve known Chris since I was in the 7th grade and met Colleen when she moved back to Phoenix with him years ago…only I met her through our mutual film industry activities and not because of Chris. I am involved in the local film community here in Phoenix and it turns out Chris met and fell in love with a very talented actress. Colleen is awesome and I see her more now for film related things than I do Chris. However, I love them both. It’s always nice seeing either one of them. I couldn’t be happier they are having their first baby, a girl, very soon. And if you know them, you know their happy story is a long and very deserving one. I don’t do much maternity work so it means a lot ot me Colleen trusted me with taking these photos. It was an honor to document this time in their lives. Congrats, guys!

Here are some of my favorite pictures of this growing, beautiful family. 

My Equipment:

Aaron Kes (hey that’s me!) is normally a wedding photographer who was stepping outside of his comfort zone here. However, he enjoys putting his spin on anything and is happy to talk to you about your maternity, family, pet, headshot, travel, food, or, of course, wedding photography needs. Dude likes to make great images. Say hi and get the ball rolling on yours.
