The holiday season was in full swing at the Get Local Farmers Market, and it’s been a joy capturing these precious moments. I partnered with MM Ranch Services Mobile Petting Zoo people could choose an animal from the petting to be a part of their photoshoot. The adorable hot cocoa backdrop was perfect for these mini sessions complete with a bale of hay.

One of my favorite moments was capturing a little girl in a Santa dress with Lucy the bunny. Her eyes sparkled with delight as she cuddled sweet Lucy. It was a heartwarming sight that perfectly encapsulated the holiday spirit.

Bubbles the petting zoo calf is a fan favorite for photos

We’ve also had the pleasure of photographing families with Bubbles the calf. Sweet Bubbles is always a hit with the kids, and the photos we’ve captured are simply adorable. Just take look.

Get Local Farmers Market has something for everyone

But it’s not just about the big animals. We’ve had some heartwarming moments with the smaller creatures too. One little boy’s face lit up as he held a tiny baby chick in his hands. It was a pure expression of joy that I was lucky enough to capture.

As a West Phoenix, AZ based photographer, I’m always on the lookout for unique photo opportunities. The Get Local Waddell Farmers Market at Canyon View High School (6024 N. Perryville Rd, Waddell, AZ) has proven to be the perfect backdrop for a fun-filled day of capturing precious moments for those wanting to support local. There are so many amazing vendors is you are looking for honey, raw milk, cheese, bread and so many arts and crafts!

The market is always more special thanks to the adorable animals from MM Ranch Services. From, Jolene the donkey, to the playful Bubbles the calf, and the ever-popular Spider Pig, there is a farm animal for everyone. The combination of these charming creatures with the cozy backdrop of a hot cocoa stand created a truly magical atmosphere for a photoshoot.

I had the pleasure of photographing a diverse range of people, from a birthday girl celebrating her special day to adorable baby boys and best friends. One particularly memorable moment was when someone requested a photo with a duck! Apparently, his coworkers had been leaving rubber ducks on his desk..

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be back at the Get Local Farmers Market on December 1st and December 15th taking more photos with the farm animals. If you’re looking for a unique and fun way to capture your family’s holiday spirit, come join us!

A Dream Come True: A Photoshoot with Bubbles the Calf

A few years ago, I had a unique photo request: a photoshoot with a cow. At the time, I wasn’t sure how I would make this dream a reality. But fate had other plans.

Last year, while working at the Waddell Get Local Farmers Market, I met Kim, the owner of MM Ranch Services. We immediately hit it off, and I shared my client’s unusual request. Kim was enthusiastic and offered to bring her adorable calf, Bubbles, to a future photoshoot.

Fast forward to this year, and the moment we had been waiting for finally arrived. My client, Peytin, came to the Get Local Farmers Market in Waddell, AZ, ready to meet Bubbles. However, she didn’t want a festive Christmas backdrop. Instead, she envisioned a simple, elegant photoshoot that would highlight her connection with the calf.

The result was pure magic. These photos are some of my favorites because they capture not only Bubbles’s sweetness but also Peytin’s kindness and beauty. It’s a testament to the power of dreams and the joy of fulfilling them.

I’m incredibly grateful to have been a part of this special moment. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the most extraordinary things happen when we dare to dream.

November 3, 2024 was a magical day at the Get Local Farmers Market in Waddell, AZ. The air was crisp, the festive spirit was high, and the market was getting ready for the upcoming Christmas season.

I was there to capture the holiday cheer as families gathered for photoshoots against an adorable hot coco stand backdrop. There was a Christmas tree that baby chicks would sit in and an opened “gift” to hold the bunny. The real stars of the show were the adorable farm animals from MM Ranch Services Mobile Petting Zoo.

From cuddly bunnies to playful goats and even a brand-new baby donkey named Jolene, the petting zoo was a hit with kids and adults alike. But once you combine it with sweet photoshoot it’s magic. Bubbles the calf made a return appearance, charming everyone with her gentle nature. It was heartwarming to see the joy on the faces of the children as they interacted with these gentle creatures.

The MM Ranch Services employees even got into the festive spirit, posing for photos with different animals. Their enthusiasm added an extra layer of fun to the event.

The combination of the holiday decorations, the adorable animals, and the happy families made for some truly unforgettable photos. I was honored to be a part of this magical experience and to capture these precious moments.
