LOVE these guys! {Salt Lake City Family Photographer}

This darling family is so dear to our hearts! We have seriously known each other forever and they are the BEST! We absolutely love their friendship :) We snapped some beautiful pictures and then went out to eat, YES with all the kiddos…ummm, yeah let’s just say we love our kids but next time they can be with a babysitter :) We loved hanging out with you guys again! Enjoy your pics….

M and J {Utah Engagement Photographer}

Can you feel the love??? Wait until you scroll down and see these pictures and you will FOR SURE feel the love :) Super fun session…I’m pretty sure J practices in front of the mirror on a daily basis…I would say do this or do that and he would do something 10 times better than what I just asked him to do. Plus, they were both just plain FUN…since we were in the weeds we got all stickered up but the pokies that crawled down our jeans and poked our buttocks all night were totally worth it right guys?
Sorry for the overload of pics but they are a BEAUTIFUL couple!

PHEW…did you make it?

L.O.V.I.N.G.it!

I love this family! Is it not the best when a mom and dad say do whatever you want and are totally care free about the pictures that you take? That’s what was said to me when I took their pictures :) LOVE it! Their littlest one…made me laugh because he DID NOT care about pictures…but really what almost 2 year old does? I kind of felt bad because the first photo that I made them take was up on this gross, rusty, dirty box of some kind and well, yeah…let’s just say they were TOTALLY good sports about it!
Thanks for letting me take your pics…I hope you all like!

Just a heads up…

First…I have to say that I LOVE what I do…seriously, every minute I love it. I love meeting new people, I love the sassiness and shyness of kids, I love the moms bribing their children to smile…this especially makes me laugh because I do it with my kids, I love the family laughs, the look of a couple as they look into each others eyes and then bust out laughing….I really could go on and on about what I love. There are SOOO many photographers that have truly inspired me over the past year and I seriously look up to them on how they juggle photography, their kids, husband, school, etc…. I have often caught myself saying “I don’t know how they do it!” Seriously, ask my cute hubby…those words come out of my mouth often.

I am excited and a bit sad to say that I am pretty much booked for the rest of the year. I really do take extremely limited sessions because my family is #1 to me and between me running my kids to preschool and dance and keeping my house clean (ha, ha…I am obsessed about that!), I feel like I can only take so many sessions where I will still feel like I am a good mom….and this is why I say that SOOO many photographers have inspired me! I am completely booked for September and October (seems like lots of people have thought ahead for Christmas, plus lots of babies being born, and I am doing another wedding).

HOWEVER…I still want to help all these wonderful people out there get their Christmas cards done…so I am going to offer 1 half day of mini sessions :) AND, I can’t wait!!!

Christmas MINI sessions!!!

I am going to be holding some Christmas mini sessions on November 7th (however, I will only be taking 4 sessions).

Times available:
10:00
11:00
12:00
1:00

I am still scouting out a fun location….but it will be good…I promise!

These are the details:
1) Sessions will be 30 minutes long.
2) You will have a choice of approximately 10 images to choose from online.
3) 25 Christmas cards with envelopes will be included and you will have the choice of many different types of paper to have your cards printed on. (They are super nice quality!)

Price: $150.00

You will also have the option to purchase a disc for $10.00 with 5 images on it. And of course, you can always order larger prints as well…wouldn’t that be a great gift for grandma and grandpa??? All framed and wrapped up nice with a pretty bow…sounds good to me! :)

Here are examples of the Christmas Cards you can choose from…please keep in mind, that we will add your own wording that signs your name(s).

ANOTHER HEADS UP:

I will be increasing my prices as of January 2010 so please check out my pricing link for any changes. I hope to be adding studio lights to my never ending, LONG list of “NEEDED” items for photography…and hopefully that will be soon so that I can still continue taking pictures since Utah likes to have these LONG, DREADFUL Winter months! :)

Thank you everyone for making my photography business be successful! I adore you more than you know!!!

I smell YUMMYNESS!!!!

Awww, the sweetness of newborns! I just love them…I went to pick up her blanket while doing this session and on that blanket I could smell the OH. SO. DECLICIOUSNESS of newborns! She is so cute you would think it would make me want another one…BUT then I remember the no sleep stuff and I quickly move on and just treasure the time I get to take pictures of little ones :) This little beauty did NOT want to sleep for us at all :) Even though she did not want to sleep, she was quite the angel! The mom of these cute kids has been my number one follower/fan since I started this blog and it was really great to actually meet her!!! Hope you like “A”!

Can you say SASSY???!!!!

Oh.MY.GOODNESS!!! Look at these girls! They had so much SASS and I LOVED it! I didn’t really even have to tell them how to pose, they just kept striking these poses and I was trying to snap as fast as I could. The oldest girl is getting baptized so we snapped some pictures in her baptism dress too :) Anywho…they are absolutely beautiful girls and I could not have had more fun taking their pictures :) Thanks for having me take your cute kids pics. Enjoy!

Feeling spoiled!!!

To be able to take pictures of these cute kids! These kids belong to one of my MOST WONDERFUL friends in the whole entire world! We worked together for years and then went to college together too…and then of course, she moved…grrrr!!! I love that we can see each other only every so often and it is like we never skipped a beat! I’m so lucky to have friends like this in my life :) Plus we are both SUPER blunt and it doesn’t get any better than that! She called and said she was coming to SLC and asked if I would take pictures of her kiddos…OF COURSE I would :) Funny her 3 year old really did NOT care about the camera at all…way too many other FUN things to see! Regardless, her kids are sweethearts and I’m glad she asked me to take their pictures!
Hope you like the pictures as much as I do :)

Doing a little CHILLAXIN!!!

I just returned from Oceanside, California and loved hanging out with my family on the beach! It is freezing here in Utah…what is up with that? Get me back to the warm, sunny beach! Here are some pictures to enjoy :)

I’m STILL here!!!!

Bet you thought I had died, huh? Okay maybe not that serious but really, I have been THOROUGHLY enjoying my summer with my kids! Here is just a couple of pictures that show how much fun we have had! Don’t worry, I will be back to posting pictures eventually… just give me some time :)

we are FAMM-A-LEEEEEE!!!!

I must admit that I was a bit nervous to take pictures of a big family but I am SO glad that I took on this challenge :) This family was A LOT of fun and up for anything (except standing on the wood thingy that had bee’s coming out of it like crazy)…okay, I will admit, I would be TOTALLY chicken too….ya’ll would’ve never known that I am SUPER afraid of bees…my sister and I were on the beach once and we were both running away from a bee and ran in a circle and ran into each other (head on) because we were so frantic and weren’t paying attention to any of our surroundings except that ONE DANG BEE! Okay, off on a tangent….Thank heavens there were a bunch of guys to drag my 3 chairs EVERYWHERE we went…thanks guys! So fun meeting all of you and I think I finally got all your names…it only took me 4 days..ha, ha! Enjoy your sneak peeks!
