Adventures of CoCo 10x10 book, intro price $50

Okay so we got rained out from our trip, long story, but I am just glad we didn't spend 5 days in the rain. So now I am home being productive and finally finishing this book.

This book has been a long time coming. I wanted something fresh, happy and full of fun design. This is a 10x10 hinged booked with 20 pages from White House Custom Color. There is one bonus page if you wanted to switch things up a bit. This is fully layered, so it is totally custom!

For me, I can only print so many huge prints for my house so I have resorted to printing books of my kids sessions, this is a great alternative for your clients as well. 25 photos fit in this album, so it's perfect to pick the favorites from a session and make it a masterpiece. I will photos soon of this book printed.

**if you are proficient at photoshop, this book is easy to change and print as an 8x8 or 5x5 book as well.

Full instructions included.

The price will go up to $55 in one week, enjoy the savings!

OUT of town... again.

I will be canoeing 80 miles for the next 5 days... with 2 children and all of Anthony's family... someone please feel sorry for me...? Okay so I am not so excited, but I know it will be fun. It's just hard to imagine 2 crazy 2 year olds running around with no containment, maybe I can strap them to something. I need to get rid of my bad attitude. I won't have access to email or phone so I will get back to you on Tuesday of next week!

Miss S

Graduating one week from now...
She was such a natural in front of the camera and I loved finding some fun new locations and meeting some interesting people on the streets:) Thanks Ashlee for sending her over!

This first one is my favorite urban photo lately, she looks so beautiful!

The Peterson's

I LOVE photographing this family.
Reasons why,,,
1. they are real.
2. they are funny.
3. they are cute. obvious i know.
4. they like the outdoors.
5. they are up for anything.
6. even when their kids were crying they were still laughing.
7. 3 boys & a canoe.
8. they really play with their kids and act like I am not there, love this.
9. their kids have gigantic blue eyes with girly long lashes:)
10. just because.

We had this idea a while ago to take my father in laws old canoe out on Tibble Fork up AF canyon. I was so excited to try something a little different, it was so much fun. I actually brought my whole family. It was funny, chloe got the chair out that I brought, found a hat in my camera bag and sat down ready for a picture, I was a proud mom tonight! Even though they were crazy and standing right in front of my camera part of the time it was fun.

It took forever to edit this photo, but well worth it.

What the? seriously how cute is he?


these ones make me so happy



and a close up of Logan, the brave one to stand up in the canoe.

Availability- Now booking for July

June is booked, July is half way booked, if you want a summer session book now. Fall always books up really fast, so if you want Christmas card pictures think about booking now and save the hassle of having to wait until last minute.

I swore to myself that I wouldn't overbook myself this summer and fall so I am sticking to the # of sessions I have available each month, trying to find a little balance:)
