The Sonoran Desert is home to some of the most beautiful hiking trails in the world.

Two of my favorite hiking destinations in Tucson are Mt Lemmon and Sabino Canyon. Mt Lemmon is the highest peak in the Santa Catalina Mountains, and it offers stunning views of the desert below. Sabino Canyon is a lush oasis in the desert, and it's home to a variety of plants and animals.

I've taken some great photos while hiking in these two areas. Here are some of my favorites:


I'm so grateful for the opportunity to have hiked in these two amazing places. The scenery is breathtaking. If you're ever in Tucson, I highly recommend hiking Mt Lemmon and Sabino Canyon. You won't be disappointed!

Tips for Taking Great Hiking Photos

Here are a few tips for taking great hiking photos:

  • Be prepared for the elements. The weather in the desert can change quickly, so it's important to be prepared for both sun and rain. Bring sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, and a rain jacket.

  • Pay attention to the light. The best time to hike for photography is early in the morning or late in the evening. The light is soft and diffused at these times, which creates beautiful photos.

  • Experiment with different compositions. Don't be afraid to experiment with different compositions. Try shooting from different angles and perspectives to find the best shot.

  • Be patient. Sometimes the best photos take time. Be patient and wait for the right moment to capture the perfect shot.

If you like any of these photos, many will be available for purchase as downloads and wall art at TJ's Capturing Studios Giftshop!

Engagement Photos at the Dallas Arboretum: A Beautiful and Romantic Setting https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2023/5/engagementsessionatthedallasarboretum I recently had the pleasure of photographing an engagement session at the Dallas Arboretum. This is the first session I have done at this location and it will surely not be the last. The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden is a beautiful place to take engagement photos. There are so many different gardens and areas to explore, and the flowers are always in bloom. I had so much fun photographing these two. They were so natural and comfortable in front of the camera, and their love for each other was evident in every photo. Here are some tips if you are looking to have photos done at the arboretum:
  • Check the weather forecast. The Dallas Arboretum is open year-round, but the weather can vary depending on the season. If you're having your photos taken in the winter, be sure to dress warmly. If you're having your photos taken in the summer, be sure to bring sunscreen and a hat.

  • Choose your outfits wisely. The Dallas Arboretum has a variety of different gardens and landscapes, so you'll want to choose outfits that will look good in a variety of settings. You'll also want to be comfortable, since you'll be doing a lot of walking.

  • Plan your route. The Dallas Arboretum is a big place, so it's a good idea to plan your route ahead of time. This will help you make the most of your time and avoid getting lost.

  • Arrive early. The Dallas Arboretum can get crowded, especially on weekends. If you want to avoid the crowds, try to arrive early.

  • Wear comfortable shoes. You'll be doing a lot of walking around the Dallas Arboretum, so it's important to wear comfortable shoes. You don't want to be in pain halfway through your photo shoot.

  • Bring a water bottle. It can get hot in the Dallas Arboretum, so it's a good idea to bring a water bottle with you. This will help you stay hydrated and avoid getting heat stroke.

  • Have fun! The most important thing is to relax and have fun. This is a special time, so enjoy it!

If you're looking for a beautiful place to take your engagement photos, or any photos for that matter, I highly recommend the Dallas Arboretum. It's a special place that will create memories that will last a lifetime.

Tips for Planning an Engagement Photo Session at the Dallas Arboretum

  • The best time to take photos at the Dallas Arboretum is in the morning or early evening. The light is softer and more flattering during these times.

  • Be sure to check the weather forecast before you go. The Dallas Arboretum can be quite crowded, especially on weekends. If you can, try to go during the week when it's less crowded.

  • Wear comfortable shoes. You'll be doing a lot of walking, so you'll want to be comfortable.

  • Bring a water bottle and snacks. It can get hot at the Dallas Arboretum, so it's important to stay hydrated.

  • Have fun! An engagement photo session should be a fun and memorable experience. Relax and enjoy yourselves, and the photos will turn out great.

Domestic Wild Animal Photography https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2022/7/animalphotography During my trip to Tucson, Arizona I visited the Reid Park Zoo and the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. I was able to capture images of some beautiful animals. Some were of course exotic, and others were native to Arizona. Animal photography is some of my favorite and most challenging to do.

Trek Up Mt. Lemmon https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2022/7/mtlemmonhike It was nice to get away to Tucson, Arizona with my family this summer. Aside from seeing the sites, hiking, and visiting local places of interest, I love the photography potential it offers. We ventured up Mt. Lemmon hitting places such as Summerhaven and Ski Valley. I set my sights on the numerous hoodoo rock formations and the incredible variety of vistas at every turn. It was surreal starting our journey in Arizona's summer heat surrounded by cacti and moments later walking beneath towering fur trees and almost chilled temperatures as we ascended the mountain. There had been fires that occurred not long ago and I was able to capture some of the remnants, but it did not affect the beauty of this excursion in the least.

Fall Photo Hike https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2020/12/fallphotohike I love photographing the season of fall. All of the foliage has changed. There are different things growing. The leaves look like beautiful paintings. There is nothing like hiking while taking pictures. It's where exercise meets art!

These Fall Portraits Are Special to Me https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2020/11/fallportraitsspecialtome It is always hit or is always hit or miss when you do a photo session. You always want everything to be perfect whether you are the photographer or client. Throw children into the mix and it becomes more of a challenge. The only thing that makes it even more tedious is when they are your own children. Being the photographer and the client at the same time isn't all it's cracked up to be. They just don't want to cooperate, especially the little one (don't let his cuteness fool you). Now I have known this for a long time, but I still make the attempt a few times a year. Even though this shoot didn't quite work out the way I had hoped I still love them because, well let's face it, I'm biased. If this was something I did for another family I probably wouldn't be sharing them publicly. But because these are our kids these particular fall portraits are very special to me. Plus it's my blog...😋

Family Photos Downtown https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2020/11/familyphotosdowntown The square in Downtown Mckinney really is a popular location. It's always fun going down there for portraits, especially when a family that I have photographed there in the past wants to do more there as their family grows. It is such a joy documenting the kids getting older and new additions as years go by. The baby in the session sure gave me a run for my money as well as a literal run around the square, but it was all worth it. The morning was a little chilly but nice overall.  A great day for fall pictures. I look forward to the next session, and maybe a little less running. ðŸ˜„

Family Photos at the Mckinney Square https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2020/8/family-photos-at-the-mckinney-square Finally back to photo sessions even in the midst of this pandemic. This was a fun one. Great family and I got to visit The Square in Downtown Mckinney which I haven't done in a little while. Patience is important with family photos, especially when working with a 1 and 3-year-old. The 3-year-old was a trooper and was willing to smile just to get the session over with. The little guy was getting tired as we walked the square and was focused on doing his own thing. For the first time ever I had to separate strangers help me get smiles. At one point a very sweet lady jingled car keys behind me to keep the baby happy. A little later on as we were wrapping up at the last spot a nice older man made his dog do tricks behind me. This helped to achieve the last couple smiles of the morning. These people weren't even asked, they just walked up and wanted to help. It really warms the heart to see actions like these!

A Bike and a Camera https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2020/4/a-bike-and-a-camera I decided to take my camera on my bike ride just in case I saw anything that caught my eye. The cycling became secondary to the photos very quickly. I stopped to photograph pieces of nature, animals, and other things around me I found interesting. I rode five miles and got hundreds of photos. Below are some of my favorites. I will be putting some of these on my fine art page for purchase if anyone is interested. Enjoy!

Photo Walk Part 2 https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2020/3/photo-walk-part-2 I am finally able to sit down and put together part 2 of this pair of blogs. All of the photos here were taken by the kids with little to no help from me. It was a joy to see things the way they did, as well as different angles of shots I took myself.

Photo Walk Part 1 https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2020/2/photo-walk-part-1 The kids and I went for a walk with the intention of taking some fun photos. They have both shown interest in photography and were very excited about capturing their own art. They shared a camera and I, of course, had my own. I took photos as we went to both of my surroundings and the kids enjoying their new hobby. Part 2 of this blog will feature the photos that the kids took!

A Halloween Jack-O-Lantern https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2019/11/a-halloween-jack-o-lantern It's Halloween night and I felt like carving a pumpkin. I was actually trying to harvest the seeds to roast for my wife, but I figured why let this perfectly good, hollowed-out gourd go to waste. I've always liked the look of a pumpkin. They're perfectly imperfect. Of course, I had my camera nearby so I decided to document this fun and productive littler activity.

I Went Dragon Hunting https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2019/7/dragonhunting My walk didn't start out this way, but it turned into a dragon hunt. A dragonfly hunt to be more specific. I went walking through the local creek snapping photos of so many interesting sights. As I made my way down the winding stream a huge, bright red dragonfly caught my eye. I followed as best I could and tried to catch a great shot of it. It took a while, but I finally caught in a few different locations. Enjoy some closeups of this incredible creature and its habitat.

Sleepy Newborn Pictures https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2019/5/sleepy-newborn-pictures Newborn photos are always a challenge, but well worth it in the end. This little one was not happy to start, but after eating and lying down for a bit he fell asleep. It was time to get to work! I started snapping away before he woke up again. The older brother really didn't want to be in any pictures, but when he cooperated her did a great job. I was able to capture some adorable moments.

Prairie Creek Park Family Photos https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2019/1/prairie-creek-park-family-photos It is always hit or miss with Prairie Creek Park. You either have the whole area to yourself or you end up having to take turns with other photographers. This particular session I had to do the latter. It really ended up not being a big deal and going very smoothly. It's nice when everyone is so courteous. This was such a nice family and these two little girls were troopers. It was a little chilly this day, but they just kept on smiling until the session was complete. No complaints at all. I look forward to working with this family again!

Suburban Waste https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2018/3/suburbanwaste Thought I'd share my observations from a recent nature walk I had with my kids. There is a creek in our neighborhood that stretches for miles. It is very peaceful and beautiful, but it is also filled with reminders that there is very little nature untouched by our waste. I am not posting this as a statement, so much as just capturing our world.

Fall Preschool Pictures 2017! https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2017/10/fall-preschool-pictures-2017 Preschool Pictures...

What to say about preschool pictures...

I really enjoy preschool pictures!

They are probably the most work I do as a photographer. They involve the most planning, the most patience, and of course, the most energy. When photographing preschool children you can't really just sit there and snap pictures. I am constantly in their face trying to get that perfect smile and then almost falling backwards as I backpedal to get the shot. As I said before however, I really enjoy doing preschool pictures. It just makes for a variety of faces and personalities captured in such a short period of time. Plus, if it wasn't fun I wouldn't be doing this!

The kids started to get a little restless, but that didn't stop great moments from being captured. We ended the session with some silly pictures that seemed to sum up the morning.

Family Photos at the Flour Mill in McKinney! https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2017/10/aghastewart2017 I really enjoyed this location. Almost as much as I enjoyed photographing this family. I had a great time as we made our way through buildings snapping pictures as we went. I highly recommend the Flour Mill as well as this entire historic area in McKinney. So many great spots to explore. What made it all the better was being able to capture this beautiful family!

Wylie Prom 2017 https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2017/6/wylie-prom-2017 This prom session took me all over Wylie. The locations were fun and allowed me to get some great shots. Outdoor portraits are always my favorite.

Josh Senior Pictures https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2017/6/josh-senior-pictures It's that time of year! Did a quick senior photo session for a graduate of Allen High School. We started out with a few pictures of him with his marimba. We then went to Watters Creek, a local shopping and dining hot spot, to get some nice urban setting photos.

Preschool Pictures Spring 2017 with a Rabbit https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2017/6/preschoolspring2017 I made my biannual visit to Kids'R' Kids in Frisco and decided to take along a little friend. Lucy the rabbit decided to make her preschool photo debut for spring pictures this year. The kids loved her and she did a great job posing for most of the pictures. I always enjoy doing preschool portraits because I always have so much fun. This year seeing the kids light up when getting to pet Lucy was the highlight. Looks like she will be tagging along to other spring photo sessions.

David is 9 Months! https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2016/11/david-9-months This was a chilly photo session out at Arbor Hills Nature Preserve, but it was well worth it. We did some family photos and then focused on the little one's 9 month pictures. We got some really cute shots in his first outfit, and then some great sunset pictures in his second one. This little guy was a real trooper even with his little shivering bottom lip. Always smiling!

Celina Family Photos https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2016/11/celina-family-photos I've never taken any photos in Downtown Celina, but I may have to go back there. A very quiet town square with lots of great little picture spots. I took this family around the entire square taking fun pictures at each spot. This was such a fun photo session from family pictures to individual shots. Can't wait to do more photos with them!

Mary Kay Model Shoot https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2016/10/marykaymodel This was a fun little photo session. My wife, Jessie, has started her own Mary Kay business, Flustered to Flawless, and needed content for social media. She decided that she wanted to have some fun with Halloween coming up and do a couple of costume makeup ideas using all Mary Kay products. The first one she did was a puppet and then she did a pop art look. We finished up with standard model shoot showcasing the makeup. Let me know what you think of the photos, and if you're in the market for Mary Kay Jessie is your girl!

David is 3 Months! https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2016/5/david3months Got to take these photos at one of my favorite locations, the Frisco Heritage Museum. This was a fun session because not only was I taking 3 month old pictures, but big sister got in on the action. She gave her best smile while trying to get baby brother to crack one as well. He was pretty serious for most of it, but adorable as always!

Kids R Kids Spring Pictures 2016 https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2016/5/kids-r-kids-spring-pictures-2016 I would describe my preschool portrait sessions as me doing lunges for a couple of hours. That being said it certainly doesn't make it any less enjoyable. Even one perfect smile in a school of 200 faces makes it worthwhile.

Baby Number 2! https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2016/2/babynumber2 This newborn session was an extra special one. I photographed this little one's older sister throughout her first year and now we are starting again with brother. We tried to get sister in on some photos, but she just wasn't feeling it that day. Hopefully we can get some sibling pictures at the next photo session.

Spring Portraits at Kids R Kids Flower Mound https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2014/5/springportraitsKRKflowermound This was a fun 3 days from a couple of weeks ago.  I got to take a lot of pictures of a lot of fun kids at Kids R Kids Flower Mound.  It was also nice because my wife is the director their so I got to see her!  Preschool sessions are always the biggest challenges, but that's what makes them fun.  The biggest challenge for this one was the wind.   I almost lost my reflector a few times.  The photos turned out great though!

Kids R Kids Spring Portraits 2013 https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2013/6/kidsrkidsspringportraits This shoot was three days of fun.  I took pictures of close to 100 children at a Kids R Kids.  I got to work with babies to pre-k kids.  I was also able to shoot some sibling photos which were probably some of the most fun.  They really showed their love for their brothers or sisters. It was really windy which didn't help the hair that was styled by many parents that morning, but it smiles are priceless.  I love doing outdoor shoots.  Share these photos with your child's preschool and maybe I can come take photos there too!

Baby Zoe https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2013/4/babyzoeblog This is an older shoot from the beginning of the year.  It's a newborn session and I am about to take this little one's 3 month old pictures next week. Since I have just started blogging I am going backwards to show past shoots that I am proud of.  This would be one of those.  I always like working with little kids because you always get fun shots even if by accident.  I am excited to continue with these shoots as the year goes on.  Enjoy the precious pictures of these beautiful children.

Brother and Sister Session https://www.capturingphoto.com/blog/2013/4/brotherandsister This was a fun shoot.  This brother and sister wanted to get photos taken for their mom for Mother's Day.  They decided on Haggard Park in downtown Plano.  I love this location.  We had a good time just going around the park and finding different settings to interact with.  There was some strategy involved as we tried to shoot around the crowds that were also taking advantage of the nice day.  We got classic sibling poses as well as some fun, goofy ones that will be sure to make mom laugh. Enjoy the photos!
