So many of you know that we moved, but did you know how beautiful the yard is? There are trees, and rocks, and grass, and lots of places to play. In the spring my friend Carrie Peterson was ready to get pictures taken with her kids, and so we tried out the yard. I think they are beautiful images!!! It’s really fun to shoot in every angle, thanks Carrie for being the first!

For the first 17 years of our married life we lived in the same home in East Layton. One of the families that we became friends with when we moved in was the Bradfords. She became the ward choir pianist when I was the director, and is so talented we sang pieces she wrote. My oldest was born just a months after her youngest so it was fun to have kids close in age. Since they moved we she became my Mary Kay lady (to make sure I see her every so often,) and we even went to Garth Brooks together a couple months ago. Such wonderful people, and so photogenic!! We are so grateful they are our friends!

I was able to go out with the Christensen family last Friday. I’ve known Shaundeen for years. We used to exercise together when our kids were really small and ran their scooters around us in the gym of the church. We served in the Primary at church together were able to watch our kids begin to form their testimonies of our Savior. It was so fun to go out with them and capture gorgeous images of their beautiful children at this time in their lives. They are so talented, so smart, and so kind. Devon and Shaundeen you have a wonderful family! Thank you for sharing the afternoon with me!

I met a wonderful family the other day, and had the privilege of spending the evening with them and capturing a very special time of their lives. Edward, one of their awesome sons was leaving on a mission a few days later and they wanted to make sure they captured the special time before he left.
What a wonderful family they are! Loving, sweetly sarcastic, respectful and encouraging of one another. It’s because of families like the Standing family that I spend time away from mine during this busy time of year. Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to spend an evening with you! What wonderful people you are!

What a pleasure it has been in the past year and a half to photograph and get to know (as much as you can through photography sessions) this handsome young man! It all started with Zach’s Senior portraits at the end of last school year, then we took his family portraits, and then we photographed the Wayment family (his mother’s side, and then the large England family. (his father’s side).. and now we’ve come full circle back to Zach and his missionary portraits! What I have learned about him is that he is kind to others, honors his parents, courteous, considerate, shy, humble, driven, and obediant, and because of those traits will be a wonderful missionary! Zach also loves being in front of the camera! Ok that last part is not true… but obviously he is good at it, because they look awesome! Zach our prayers will be with you, have a wonderful mission!

A couple weeks ago I did a photo-shoot with my family and was able to take the images of my sister Becca’s family and all of her kids. They all turned out so good. The Ogden Botanical Garden’s has so many beautiful hidden little places to photograph, but really it’s good light that matters, and there is plenty of that too, (and it helps a bit that I bring some along with me!) I love photographing children, but I think it’s so special to take images of my nieces and nephews and watch them grow. Such beautiful kids! Thanks for having me to do again Bucks, they look so great!

It’s so fun to create images for my family. My sister Kaydee’s family is gorgeous! I love being with them, my kids love playing with them, and they make beautiful images! Last year I learned about the Ogden Botanical gardens. There is a row of trees that is perfect for beautiful directional light, and most photographers photograph there because of the many types of beautiful flowers. For Kaydee and Paul’s family we got to give them a little of both areas for variety in there images! I hope you love them because I love them all!:)

I’ve known Mary Gillins McCumber since my family moved to Utah from Arizona. She lived behind me. We played together as kids and then she moved away and we saw less and less of her. A few years ago her new, small, family moved back from the east where Mary became an ER doctor, and we began to get together again for summer BBQs and Christmas parties, picnics and lunches. It’s been so much fun getting to know you again Mary, and so much fun spending time with your beautiful family and capturing these beautiful moments! Until next time!

In September I was privileged to photograph the England’s. An extended family group of 9 families and I was able to take portraits of many of those families that day. However, before I was done with all the portraits that needed to be take it got dark and so we extended that session to make sure we had beautiful portraits of Camie Larson’s family. I’m so glad we met again to take them, they look great!

About a month ago I went to the Ogden Botanical Gardens with Allison England and her son Zach and photographed his senior images. Last week I was able to take beautiful photos of their family once again at the Ogden Botanical gardens. We had to postpone a couple of times, but it finally stopped being windy and stormy for a few days and we were able to get some wonderful images. Until next time England family! I had a great time, and your family is just simply delightful! Enjoy!
