Families like the Gonzales family are wonderful to work with.  So down to earth… just such good people and beautiful too.  The Gonzales family just finished building their new home and have a lovely, little, private park just behind their home. Perfect for their family session!  I do believe that each of the girls are fully charmed by their new little brother, Parker.  I have to admit, those big brown eyes and that beautiful little face is hard to resist!  The evening light was easy and beautiful to shoot in and we even snuck in a few candid poses there at the end.  Such a beautiful session and family! Enjoy!

Family photography sessions at the beach are fast becoming a favorite.  The Cheal family did an fantastic job of choosing clothing that fit their location and it adds everything to their final images.  I couldn’t be happier with the results!  Each member of the family really has their own look and no one matches another, yet the whole family coordinates beautifully! It’s a lovely little session and one I’d love to have with my own fam. To the Cheals, fantastic job in front of the camera.  I loved every minute of this evening with you.  What a great little spot! Thank you again for inviting me to photograph your gorgeous family. Enjoy!

Newborns photos with Brad & Kim and their newest little guy were such a treat.  Liam was not quite a week old and so we were able to capture him in some great sleepy moments.  Love those little hands and noses.  LOVED getting to hold this little guy.  There is NOTHING quite like a newborn.  They’re just so fresh and perfect.  Irresistible for sure!  Time just has a way of slowing down when you hold a newborn. Brad & Kim, thank you for welcoming me into your home and allowing me to share a little piece of heaven with you and your little guy.  He is beautiful!  You two are going to be fantastic parents.  Enjoy!

Kimberley is eight and so excited for her baptism at the first of the new year.  Her mom & dad set aside a special day in preparation for Kimberley’s baptism.  They drove to Salt Lake City where they met me for a very special photo shoot around the Salt Lake Temple.  Even though the weather was chilly, Kimberley was glowing and did such a great job in front of the camera.  She just bubbles over with happiness and all things sweet and good.  I am so happy for her, excited for her special day and honored to be a part of her preparations. Dan and Bobbi, you are raising one beautiful gal…. inside and out.  Thanks again for a fun morning, all of you, and enjoy!  Kimberley, you’re the tops!

I met the Cornfeld’s just over a year ago when we did their first family session and I have loved working with them.  They are so laid back and easy going as a family, which is a great blend for family photos.  They have a wonderful new home with an incredible amount of natural light streaming in from their floor to ceiling windows.  I can frankly admit that I am envious of all their beautiful windows… :).  Since the weather has been chillier and their youngest is still small, we opted for an indoor session right in the comfort of their own home.  So fun!  I’m loving the large fireplace and the classical holiday color scheme that Trisha used in their clothing choices… classy and yet not overly Christmas.  Perfect for those images that will be displayed in their home all year round.  You guys are fantastic.  Your family is just beautiful.  Thanks again for everything and enjoy your images! 🙂

I met this darling family just a few short months ago when their youngest was born and we did a newborn session together.  You can take a look at his images here.  That seemed like just yesterday but now he’s full of character and all kinds of charm.  Isn’t his hat just the tops!?  Love the hat, LOVE their style and love this wonderful family.  We spent the evening downtown and found some great color to compliment their clothing choices.  Fall temperatures beat us to our final spot and by the time the balloons came out, the little ones were done… :).  Ah well, we still caught a couple cute group shots.  Great job you guys and EnJoY! 🙂

Coming ‘oh so soon’, the Ericksons… man what a good looking family! 🙂

A quick post today for a dear, sweet family with extended post coming soon! 🙂  LOVE this beautiful family and LOVE their session!

There is nothing quite like family photography, bright and early on a crisp autumn morning… and boy was it crisp!  Everyone did such a great job of disguising how cold it really was.  This is my sweet sister and her family and each of her five boys are my handsome nephews.  What a great looking group, wouldn’t you agree? 🙂  She’s needed an update in family photos for some time and now that her oldest has tied the knot, it’s become official… out with the old and in with the new family group shot! 🙂  So happy to do it… LOVE this family!

Love being a family photographer when I get to photograph families that I love, adore and admire.  The Poll’s are just that.  We had a fantastic evening up the canyon with the fall colors in full display.  These darling girls gave the autumn colors a run for their money with their vibrant, energetic and beautiful smiles.  Such wonderful, sweet girls… inside and out!  The canyon winds picked up just a bit as we began to shoot which made for some very elegant, magazine moments and I loved every bit of it.  What a great session.  Just love this dear family to pieces. Enjoy, enjoy!
