EASTER IS ON IT'S WAY... HOW ABOUT A PHOTO SHOOT

So I am planning a little Easter photo shoot. I am going to set up a little Easter Wonderland for the kiddos, and the parents too if they want, and get some beautiful shots of your little ones in their Easter clothes. I am going to have ten spots open. It is planned for Saturday the 17th of March at 11:00 a.m.. I am still deciding on the place but I almost have it narrowed down. Those of you who are interested can get a slot in the photo session. It is going to be so much fun. Colorful props, tasteful set-up, and most importantly a lot of fun and some great pictures for your family. As I get things in the works let me know if you want to participate. It will include the shoot, a c.d. with your pictures and a fun day with the kiddos. The price is very reasonable. Call me if interested and we will go over details. I already have 3 slots filled! Do not miss out on this fun filled day of memories that will last a lifetime.

BEAUTIFUL BLUE EYES AND WHAT A STUNNER

Karen it was such a wonderful experience to photograph you. Aside from it being a little chilly outside it was a perfect day and a perfect photo shoot. You looked absolutely beautiful and you have stunning, icy blue eyes. Capturing your beauty was very easy to do because it is so natural. The day was very relaxed and easy going. I hope you enjoyed it as much as i did. I absolutely loved how you wanted it to showcase who you are and what you have accomplished. I hope we can do it again sometime. It was a true treat for me. I am working on getting your pictures ready and I am almost done. I will call you when I am finished and then I will deliver your package to you. For now here is a little sneak peek into your day. I hope you like the pictures. Much love.

HERE COMES THE BRIDE...... AND THE GROOM'S WEDDING INVITES

Tori and Dayne sitting in a tree K I S S I N G! I am so elated that you guys have chosen me to be your photographer for your wedding invitations, bridals, reception and wedding. I couldn't be happier for my sister, she has landed a pretty awesome guy and Dayne you have landed a pretty kick ass girl too. You two are truly made for each other. I had so much fun shooting you guys. The weather was great, overcast with a little drizzle here and there, and the places we went. WOW, they were just perfect. Tori you looked beautiful in your dress with your stunning purple and green shoes and Dayne I absolutely loved your purple suit. It really made my job a whole lot easier shooting you both because you guys were so natural with each other. So relaxed and just enjoying the moment and being yourselves. What a beautiful couple you guys are, truly. Inside and out. I am so happy for Tori finally meeting a man who is worthy of her love. She deserves a great guy and that is what she is getting. Welcome to the family Dayne. I have a sneaking feeling you will fit right in :-)

Here is just a little sneak peek into the photo shoot we had in Spanish Fork and up at the castle in Provo. Dayne and Victoria I hope you like them. You both deserve the best. Enjoy.

FREE SHOOTS ARE OVER AND WOW THEY WERE AMAZING!

I had such a great time taking pictures for my lovely friends over the last two weekends. It was such a great experience and I had such an amazing time being able to photograph all of you. I am going to give you a sneak peak of just a couple of pictures I took of each of you until I get them all finished up and am able to deliver them to you. Elizabeth and Greg were my first free session so i am going to start with them. I had such a great time taking your pictures. Elizabeth, you did such an amazing job, even though i know you were a tad nervous at first. You photograph beautifully and you are such a beautiful person inside and out. Greg, you did amazing also and helped Elizabeth relax and realize that she could do this. It was just a learning experience for all of us and the shoot was so much fun. I hope you both like the pictures as I do. They are beautiful and really capture the essence of you, your love for each other and the little family you are building. I love you guys and hopefully we can do it again! Here is a sneak peak at your shoot. I am almost done with putting everything together so I will be getting these to you in the next few days. I love you guys.

YA I AM A BUSY GIRL.

So taking pictures has been a blast for me. I am so thankful that I have gotten this opportunity to express myself through photography and helping capture beautiful moments for people. Taking pictures and getting that perfect shot is so rewarding. I love to see beauty and with a few clicks of a camera imprinted forever in that moment. For everyone to cherish. When you look back at your life and you look through these amazing moments that you wanted to trap in a bottle and keep for all time that is what photography does. I find it is so special and it means the world to me. I can sit for hours and look through old photos, new photos, and a flash of nostalgia years, hours, or minutes ago comes shooting at you. You can remember the moment like you are there. The smells, the sounds, the people, place and time.  Thank you to all who have let me take your pictures and also to those of you who I am still going to thank you for letting me be a part of that moment in time with you. Greg and Elizabeth & Tori and Dayne I am going through your photos right now. Let me tell you, we got some perfect ones! As soon as i am done I am going to get them to you so be ready;-) I am also going to post a few on my blog in the next day or two. Thank you again Torks and Dayne for having me as your photographer for your wedding invitations, reception, and wedding. I am so excited and I can not wait to show you what we have got so far. BEAutiful! It was such a special day. I am going to do a little post with your pictures if you do not mind guys? As soon as I get them all sorted through and finished up I will bring them to you. Love you guys. Here are just a couple of pictures of Ava that I took when Aunt Mannie was babysitting her so I could go do some picture takin'. Aunt Mannie, you are so amazing with little Ava. She loves you so much (so do Av and I). When you did her hair like that I could not stop laughing and I still crack up every time I look at the pictures. They kill me! She is always so happy and safe at your house and it makes me feel good. Shae, Jordy, Nya, and Aedan are so great with her too. We want them all to come over here and spend the night again sometime soon, if they want to. It would be so much fun. You could send them over dressed up too and I can take some pics? Better yet, you and David could come with them and I could do family pictures.... That would be awesome! Love you and thank you for being so good to Ava. She loves all of you guys so much. I also just wanted to tell my mom that having her come with me the other day was perfect. You helped so much and it was such a blast. I love you and I really had a great day with you and Tori and Dayne. Well, goodnight guys and enjoy these pretty hilarious pics of Ava.

TIME TO GET THIS BALL ROLLIN'

 I am so excited for this next week coming up. I have four photo shoots I am doing for Valentine's Day. The shoot is going to be beautiful and stunning. I am so happy to have Karen, Fran & Aaron & Haven, Elizabeth & Greg and Evan & Joey & Kayson for this photo shoot. I am shooting them for free, giving them each their own c.d. and letting them pick their favorite shot, which I am going to frame and deliver it to them. This is the beginning of something great, amazing, and has always been in the works since I can remember and now I am making it a reality. I can not wait to express myself through capturing life, love, family, nature, weirdness, beauty and everything else the catches my eye. I am also very excited for my first wedding shoot. I am doing the photo shoot for the invites, wedding and reception. I will be posting tons of pictures on my blog very soon of all that I will be doing over the next few months. So happy with where I am and where I am going. Thank you to all who are involved and who believe in me. It really means a lot. Here are just some random pictures I took this week, on a walk and just at home.

IF YOU WANT IT, IT'S YOURS

Life's too short. Do everything and anything you have always wanted to do. Live life to the fullest. Do the things you never thought possible, the things people told you that you couldn't do. Live your life the way you want to. Set your expectations high and your resolve to meet them even higher. In this life, you can do anything. Life is too short so make it count.
