a girl and her dog.

you know when you have one of those days where you have no idea what you are doing in life? Today was one of those. I totally have been thinking way too much about life lately and it is so crazy how much I am analyzing every little thing that goes on in my life. Bottom line- I have so much to be happy about in life! Anyways, so taking pictures of my little ones always makes me happy beyond anything else. I get to have one on one time with them and I get to have a little creative fun.

I love the feeling of this photo. so different from what I normally do, it's a nice change. Chloe had to have her dog in the photo, which is named "White" by the way.

Hardman family...

I love this family! They were one of the first family sessions I have done. Their family is so chill and up for anything. Sorry, I spaced to post these earlier!

This is one of my favorite sibling pictures ever! how sweet..!

celeste,

he is cute beyond words...

The Monson's

Yep they are related to us, lucky us. We lost light so fast in their photo shoot and I was like a crazy maniac trying to capture it all! Love you guys!






Family reunion today and more editing! I am trying so hard to get caught up, thank you for your patience!

for Freda

Oh how I love your sweet baby Lincoln... I think your girls had some fun dressing up, ya think?
Here is your peek! Sorry it's taken so long!

Isabel was pulling out all the stops, some of her posing was hilarious.

Naturals

These two boys were SO natural in front of the camera. I had to give these handsome boys a sneak peek!
Enjoy your weekend!

Hello gorgeous!

This family is oozing with style! Their kids are so stinkin' adorable and it was so fun to photograph them in their home. I really love doing this! Even though I stress hard about how the light will be, in the end it's a more natural environment for kids.

I want this couch. We took a few in the living room...



Then we went out in their backyard...







Then we went up to Zada's room...
Nothing better than a cute pouty picture of your child, right?


I thoroughly enjoyed this session. Adorable, fun loving family mixed with amazing fashion sense=perfect session.

a few

Here are a few from recent sessions. I am trying my hardest to get these blogged! Freda & Trina yours are up next!

I love my new $20 chair! I love this one of them together, I love Ellie's expression!



Such a fun session with mom and her girl, seriously what a great connection and mom was so
great how she interacted with her with a camera staring right at her.



P.S. I do have a few MINI SESSIONS LEFT!!! MORE INFO HERE!!

Friday Night at the fair

So, we went to the fair. It was crazy. My kids are so nuts, okay they are 3, maybe I should give them a break:) I took some family photos for my sister Shelley while we were there as well for about 10 min, I love all the colors and the light was so perfect. Anthony says I have to turn every outing into a photo op. what? no, not me.


Luke is the booty shakin' dancing machine.


We are happy for a few moments before the crazy spinning begins and me feeling like ralphing comes about.




This photo is poorly taken, BUT look how cute Chloe's hand are up in the air. So free and careless.

Cameron & Camille... It's official

Now it's time to make some babies. just kidding. NO pressure. ha.
My sis in law Camille married a very cool, sweet, handsome man this weekend. It was a beautiful day! Even though she got married at noon I still love her (I tried to force her to get married in the evening cause you know it's all about the pictures right?)! The venue was perfect for them and everything was so beautiful.
I was so happy that Chloe was the little flower girl and Tate was the ring bearer. More pics of that soon. Just a few for now!
Anthony was unable to make the wedding because he was in the hospital with pneumonia, it's been a rough week to say the least but we made it through! He will be home tomorrow doing dishes and chasing the kids, right honey? just kidding. It really did make me realize how much he does for our family and how much we love him.





Jess took this one! She took the ceremony shots because I was a bridesmaid. Thanks Jess, I owe you a kiss.

So smart, a bouncy house! My kids were in heaven. It's the best babysitter around.
