Arie + Cake Smash Session

March 31, 2022

Arie + Cake Smash Session

I can’t believe it’s been a whole year since I shot Arie’s newborn photos! She’s just as sweet as she was then. Even though she was a little overwhelmed by getting her picture taken, she did so well and LOVED her cake! She was absolutely adorable eating it with her tiny fingers.

If you’ve never done a cake smash session, here are a few tips:

William + Lifestyle Newborn Session

March 8, 2022

William + Lifestyle Newborn Session

Sweet little William joined his family two weeks ago. We scheduled his session for one week after he was born. I personally like shooting newborn sessions as soon as possible. They change and grow so quickly, so I love capturing that fresh newborn look. It’s also helpful that they are still really sleepy and cuddly! I treat in-home newborn sessions like a family session with an emphasis on the new baby. Welcoming a new baby is a big deal for the whole family, so I like to include everyone!

Portrait Mini + Headshots

February 15, 2022

Portrait Mini + Headshots

I do headshots every now and then, but I don’t usually post many of them so I thought it would be fun to share some men’s headshots. I photographed Scott and his family this past year and I absolutely loved being able to meet them. They are all incredible humans! It was fun to see him again for a few minutes. He is so genuine and has a great sense of humor. This was a really quick and easy 5 minutes session and he still got plenty of shots to choose from. Thanks Scott!

I’d LOVE to help you get awesome, updated headshots! Please contact me for more info and you can see more of my recent work on Instagram.

I already shared the first half of this snowy mother-daughter session and you can see that here. Lexie found Brylee’s blush dress at a garage sale! Can you believe it? This was such a fun location to showcase it and I love how the photos turned out! Thanks for being up for anything Lexie and Brylee! I had so much fun with the two of you!

Snowy Mother-Daughter Session

Jordan Pines

I don’t get much interest in snowy sessions, but I LOVE them! The snowy pines are just so beautiful! I try hard to keep these sessions short and I bring hand warmers to take the edge off. I’d love to fit in some more snowy sessions before spring, so if you are interested, let’s chat!

Utah Fall Photographer + Grant Family

Utah Fall Photographer + Grant Family

This ended up being kind of a last minute session, but I’m so glad we could make it happen! This family was so fun and I love how their session turned out. Family sessions with grown children always feel like a vacation for me. I’m so used to pulling out all the tricks for young kids, that adult photographing adult children doesn’t feel like work at all haha! Thanks Grant Family!
