My sweet little Avery turned 8 on January 4th and was baptized on January 29th... she is so beautiful! I don't know how the last eight years have flown by so fast, but we had fun doing a little photoshoot of her in her beautiful dress. Here are a few of my favorites.

This beautiful baby girl was so much fun to photograph. I have known her mom, Emily since preschool. It was so fun to see her again and spend a few hours with her cute little family. I went to her home and we took the pictures there, she has awesome turquoise walls that we used for some of the pictures and then she had the most beautiful antique chest that was her great grandma's that we used for some of the pictures and I loved the way they turned out, I am now on the hunt for one of my own! She also had a cute little old school chair that we used for some- the pink blankie was Emily's baby blanket and the yellow one is Ruby's. Her little boys are so cute too and were so funny... I said to them "show me your big beautiful eyes" because they didn't want to look at the camera, and well you can see what the result was, but I LOVE it... it shows their little personalities and makes me giggle every time I look at it! Emily thank you for letting me spend this time with your precious, Ruby, she is so beautiful!! There are a lot of pictures, I had a hard time deciding which ones to post!

I am so behind on blogging! I went with Heidi on this fun photoshoot back in June and this family was so cute and I LOVE their outfits and how they coordinated! They wanted pictures done downtown and I love the way they turned out with the bright walls.

My BEAUTIFUL cousin, Sara....Senior Pictures!!

2010-08-05T01:08:00.005-06:00

My awesome family visited this summer from Texas and I got the opportunity to photograph my gorgeous cousin, Sara! We had so much fun and took a ton of pictures, lost our mom's along the way, and had lots of laughs! She is so photogenic and has the most beautiful smile and eyes that change from green to blue and I just love seeing what a beautiful young woman she has become and what a bright future she has ahead of her.... go class of 2011!!!

Oh my... these are the most beautiful girls! I got to help my friend Heidi on another awesome photoshoot. This little newborn was 10 days old ( I think !) and was so sweet, her parents are Heidi's good friends and they were the nicest couple... the dad was such a proud daddy of his little girls it was so cute! She slept almost the whole time and so we were able to get some really fun pictures of her at Heidi's studio and then at the orchard. The sister was so cute.. she totally reminded me of Avery and was quite the little dancer! She turns 8 in November and was such a cute big sister and so polite! Thanks Heidi for inviting me... I love taking pictures and capturing these beautiful babies when they are so new and precious!

Studio Photoshoot

2010-07-09T02:13:00.000-06:00

I got to go with Heidi on another really fun photoshoot. She shares a studio with another photographer up in Kaysville, and can I just say I am jealous! I now want a studio in my house so bad! I was so naive to the whole studio setting that I was a little overwhelmed... I have never honestly seen a strobe light that huge ( 7' in diameter ) it was so fun and Heidi of course is always so generous and let me snap a few pictures also... I love natural lighting, but I gotta say... I love the look of the studio lighting too!! Here are a few, unfortunately I didn't have my settings correct when I was taking the pictures of the little boy so I didn't really get any clear shots of him, but had to include one because he is so stinkin' cute!

Jaime's Family

2010-07-07T23:53:00.000-06:00

I was excited I got the opportunity to photograph Jaime and her amazing family and I was super excited to take some pictures in Daybreak and by the gorgeous temple. Her and my mom have been friends for several years and taught school together so it was fun getting to meet her kids. I am the WORST with names though and kept calling them all the wrong names ( my kids go through the same thing on a daily basis... I usually go through all 4 kids names before I say the right one! ) and they were so patient with me eventhough I was so embarrassed! We did the photoshoot early in the morning because that was the only time that worked with their busy schedules and so we had a little harder time finding some places where the lighting wasn't too harsh, but I am happy with the way they turned out! My favorites are the one's with the 3 girls and Marcus... they were the last ones we took for the day and it was so early that Marcus had a hard time staying awake for most of them, but I had the girls look at him instead of the camera and finally got him laughing... too funny!!

Oh my...how I love this little boy... his big brown eyes, his smile, his laughter, they way he always says "mommy I love you and I don't ever want to grow up because I want to be your little boy forever", the way he is constantly playing dress-up... from cowboys and pirates to Joseph Smith ( no joke! )...I love him and am so grateful and blessed to be his mom! I cherish these times and this sweet age of 4 and wish it could last longer because it goes by way too quickly! Thank you Jackson for making every day an adventure and for always making me feel beautiful, even on those days where we stay in jammies all day ( which is most of them! ) and for always believing in me.... I hope you always know what a truly special blessing and miracle you are to me! Love you forever!
