About Us
HISTORY
Captured Moments is a family-owned portrait photography studio founded by award-winning photographer Rita Sherman. Located in the heart of Scottsdale, Captured Moments has been providing Arizona with timeless portrait photography since 1993.
In 2004, Rita, Founder and classically trained photographer, expanded her team by adding her daughter Sydney Sherman, CEO, and Heather Montasir, Production Director and Lead Photographer. In 2019, the company has added Allison Jourden, Associate Photographer, as well as a Social Media Coordinator and Blogger, Brionna Raum to help with the demand in this growing business.
These five women are the foundation behind our expanding all-female business.
In a continuous effort to provide the latest offerings to our valued clients, Captured Moments has lauched our new division, CM Elite.
CM Elite offers modern headshots with exceptional service for the current professional’s needs. Whether working with small or large companies, our mission is to capture what makes you exceptional.
In order to create an in-studio, private sales presentation area, we recently renovated our 1600 square foot studio to accommodate larger groupings in-studio, as well as added back on the 600sq ft original studio space in Stable Galleria located on NE Corner of Cattletrack Rd and McDonald Rd.
"I have not just one, but a team of talented artists who combine their expertise and talent to offer sessions for just one person up to whole companies and teams with equal ease. There is a synergy among us; that's what's special. We are a family business that continues to grow and keep up with our changing times."
