Ava and Tess have always shared a room. Our house only has two bedroom upstairs, so when we were expecting our third baby, we knew the girls would need to move downstairs. We live in an old house and whoever finished the basement in the past, didn’t do the best job. The bedroom we needed to move them into didn’t have a closet or any outlets! We thought we would just add outlets, an Ikea closet and replace the old painted paneling with drywall. As most DIY projects go, it ended up being much more complicated. You never know what you are going to find once you start tearing into… Keep Reading
Family Portraits
little brother
It’s been so fun to have Will in our family. The girls are absolutely loving having a little brother! These were taken when he was about a week and a half old, so I figured I should share them sooner than later. He’s almost two months old and so much bigger! I can’t believe how fast he’s changing. I wish I could stop time.
Dana + Photos for Jamie
I’m so excited to share this session with you all! It has been in the works since October of last year when Dana was nominated for one of my Photos for Jamie sessions for breast cancer survivors. These sessions are inspired by my mother, who we lost to this horrible disease four years ago. Dana received the most nominations and it’s no surprise why! I can’t believe how strong and positive she has remained after all she has gone through; she is so deserving! She has wonderful family and friends that have supported and loved her all along the way. You can tell her family is her pride and joy!… Keep Reading
Carter Family + Tunnel Springs Mini
I hadn’t seen this sweet family since I shot Owen’s newborn photos. He has grown so much and it was so fun to watch him run around, he was having the best time! I had a great time at their session and it was so nice to see them again. Emily is the sweetest! She always sends such kind messages after she opens her gallery. One of my favorite parts of this job is seeing how much the final images mean to the client. Thanks for having me again Carter family!!!
Winterhalder Family + Tunnel Springs Park Mini
Abbie is my second cousin and my mom always had a special place in her heart for her. She has the sweetest family now, and I’m so glad I was able to photograph them! I have gotten them in front of my camera twice lately, because we did some front porch pictures recently as well. I had a great time with them and love watching their cute kids interact with each other. They are so fun!
Mother’s Day Session + Loch Lomond Pond
This session is a special one. Courtnee (in the green skirt) was one of my mom’s best friends. She remembered me saying I wish I had more photos of my mom and I together, so she booked this session for her mom for Mother’s Day. I love that they made getting all the women in their family photographed a priority! The photos turned out beautiful and we had a good time. They definitely kept me laughing! I adore the close relationships they all have, it was a joy to capture. I hope these are cherished in their family for generations.
Rasmussen Family + Lifestyle Newborn Session
I absolutely love lifestyle newborn sessions! Adding a new member to the family is such a special time that needs to be documented. The Rasmussen family added sweet Olivia to their family just over two weeks ago. She was so perfect and fought to stay awake during most of the session. Reagan will be such a fun big sister. She was so sweet with her baby sister and is full of personality! Thanks so much for having me Rasmussen family. I can’t wait to see your sweet girls grow to become best friends.
Jacobson Family + Wheeler Historic Farm
I’m so flattered that families from my hometown have been traveling here for their sessions with me! This family just had their brother Bowdie (far right) return from his mission two weeks ago, so it was so fun to see them together again! This family has a special place in my heart. Four years ago they lost their mom and little brother in a car accident. It was so devastating for them and heartbreaking for our little community. They could have used that as an excuse not to get family photos done, but they didn’t. Their mom would be so proud of them for making this happen. It has made… Keep Reading
Agee Family + Downtown Salt Lake City
My most recent family session is on the blog today. Such a unique, urban family session and I’m loving it!
Player Family + Big Cottonwood Canyon
I can’t get over how fun this family is! I took some extended family photos for this family a couple years ago. Time flies and their kids are looking so grown up! They traveled all the way from Emery County for this fall session, and I’m so grateful. Even though it was a little chilly and they had a long drive to the location, everyone was in such a great mood and the kids were adorable! Their giggles and cuddles made for such cute photos full of personality. Thanks so much Player family!
