I'm 29 weeks pregnant and my youngest can hardly wait for her baby brother to get here. Today she was in his room rocking in his chair, and reading his book. I absolutely love this capture.
I haven't entered a contest for awhile but I love this image so much I decided to enter it. I just had to photograph something red. I love my Liv's lips, they are always deep red. Along with the giant T-Rex popping out.:)

I love photographing young men, especially when they are trying to get comfortable with the camera. I don't think Nathan ever loosened up, but you can't tell. I love the candids we got of him. He'll make a wonderful missionary!
I had the greatest time at this session. I was really stressing on what I was going to do for it, I wanted it to be amazing, something new and different. And then the song "Armies of Helaman" came to my mind and it all came together.
Carter loved the idea, and I love how it turned out. I love it when I have my own ideas and they turn out just how I pictured them, this one turned out even better then I imagined. I'm so grateful for my talent!
We had a family vacation to Bear Lake so Shan and I took some time for a session. I love how they turned out!
It's been a year to the day since I started this little business of mine. I've learned so much about myself, photography, and people. It hasn't always been easy, I've been met with some opposition that I didn't anticipate. But I know that I have a talent and I'm grateful for it. I've learned from that opposition and have become a better person and photographer. I'm so thankful for all my friends, family, and clients for making this dream a reality.
Here's the top 10 reasons I LOVE photography (in no particular order).
1. I've gained more confidence in myself.
2. I can find beauty in anything and notice how beautiful the world is a lot more often now.
3. Pictures are priceless once the ones you are photographing have left this earth.
4. I love being around families. They all teach me something new and help me to become a better wife and mother.
5. I'm always amazed at the kindness of others who have helped me by supporting, answering questions, and helping me continue to learn.
6. I LOVE capturing candid moments, they are my favorite.
7. My eyes are always on the lookout for a new location and I love how excited I get when I find one.
8. I love getting feedback on my pictures, so THANK YOU for the likes and sweet comments on my work.
9. I love having my little Livy randomly say, "Hey mom do you think this would be a good pose?" Or, "Okay mom (grabbing her pretend camera) you need to put your hand here, and make your face like this.....good job baby that's perfect."
10. And I LOVE buying new lenses and having a passion for learning more!
Here's a quick glimpse of my first year in business (in no particular order).
This beautiful talented girl is a Utah State college student. I have a soft spot in my heart for Aggies, since I also went to there. We had a great time taking shots for her portfolio. She's going to go places and one day I'll get to say..."I KNOW HER!"
