Isaac...

I am SO blessed to have the most patient and amazing clients ever. After being out of town for a full week, I'm back home and ready to edit all these dang photos! I have several jobs in edit-progress right now, so expect several updates over the week.

For now, a teaser. The most beautiful eyes belong to Isaac, and I would take photos of him any time, he's one of the best baby models I could have asked for! See?!

I couldn't wait to post those... and now?
This momma is off to spend quality time with her family!

My beautiful (and handsome) cousins

What can I say- my family is full of beautiful people, who I love. :) These are my cousin Sarah's kids, and they are, well, beautiful.

{expect more soon!}

My baby's first experience w/ cake batter!

One of the best parts of being the mother of the cutest girl in the world, is taking her pictures. She's beautiful, right?! And so cute. And she had SO much fun enjoying the beaters that mixed the batter for her first-birthday cake!

Do you want photos of your kids "in action", carving pumpkins, painting a masterpiece, raking the leaves, or whatever else they do?! I can do that! Plan a playdate, and I'll come be a fly on the wall, getting your kids truly candid moments captured forever. Check out my website for more information on how to book a session of your own!

More Mark & Halsey

This probably won't be the last "Mark & Halsey" update... just so I warned you :)

I'm not sure why some of the colors are a bit more faded online. I've been having this problem lately!! I just can't figure it out. I'll re-post the yucky looking ones when I do get it worked out.

Perfect baby, great lighting, beautiful family... I love these photos! Remember when Zoe was in the oven?! Well, she's 2 weeks old now, and just perfect.

(my favorite... so precious!!)

Mark & Halsey...

So, I have a LOT I could say about this couple- all good things, too! They were SO much fun to work with, and thank GOODNESS the weather cooperated so we could get these shots...

(this last one is my favorite so far...)

Lots of b/w tonight... look forward to many more soon! :)

Brrrrrrrr...

The Hanley fam & I ventured out into the cold, cold Eastern Idaho weather today for some photo fun. Isn't their little girl just the sweetest thing? Her blue eyes are amazing! Don't really know what is going on with the color tonight, sorry :)

(Yes, it is 11:10 pm, and YES I am leaving at 6 am for LOGAN UTAH to do a shoot I've been looking forward to for a LONG time!!... prepare yourselves for some photo magic... gonna be good. ... I hope. ... if it doesn't snow ... which it probably will ... ... ...)

Fulfilling lifelong dreams...

Guess what I did last night... I took this picture, at the one show I had to see before I die... Weezer.

My boys were in Salt Lake City and my hubby and I made the 3+ hour drive to have our socks rocked so hard. It was... AMAZING.
