I love my job.....I love capturing moments that are priceless...

This little boy is pure fabulousness!

Busy. Busy.

2011-09-15T12:35:00.001-06:00

I am a total slacker! I have not blogged in so long that I almost forgot how to do it. I have been a little busy these last few months.......

it is a lot of work to have to snuggle with this little one all the time... :)

Sometimes I share her with others, but not very often....

I am enjoying every minute of having Liv in our home.

She is an awesome little addition to our family and we all love her to death!

Here is a little recap of what else I have been doing over the last 3 months...

...and the shoot that I am proofing right now...

it's a FUN one...

I can't wait to share it with you too!

Sweet Sixteen.

2011-03-03T16:26:00.001-07:00

A little info...

I will be having a baby within a few weeks, so I will be taking some time off to just be the Mom for a little while. I am hoping that this little one arrives around the end of this month. I will be taking the whole month of April and half of May off. I won't be shooting pics, but you can still call me and book your shoots for this summer.

Now on to the fun stuff...here is a little sweet sixteen photo shoot that I shot last week. It was cold and we were fast, but we still managed to get a lot of fun shots. Oh to be 16 again...

Baby Matthews.

2011-01-12T18:51:00.002-07:00

What happens when one of my favorite people has a new baby...let me show you...

Thanks for sharing your new addition with me. I LOVED taking and proofing her pics. You have many more to come...

Hinkley Family.

2011-01-03T08:51:00.002-07:00

Hello 2011! I am excited for this year in photography and can't wait for the sessions that I already have scheduled. But before we get to the new year, I have a few more sessions to finish up from 2010! Here is the Hinkley family. We were all FREEZING, but I think that we were able to get some good shots...

Happy Holidays & Price Changes.

2010-12-29T10:55:00.004-07:00

I hope that you all had a great Christmas and are enjoying the rest of your Holiday Season! Here is a little belated Christmas Wish from my family to yours...

There will be a few price changes in 2011. Please check my website for the new pricing list. As much as I hate to raise prices, I have decided that as I get busier and busier, my time away from my children is worth more. I hope that you understand. I continue to LOVE capturing your families little moments and I appreciate the opportunity that you have each given me this year to do so. Thank you so much for a FABULOUS 2010!!! I am excited to see what photo opps 2011 will bring me!!!

Merrill Family.

2010-12-17T14:00:00.002-07:00

Another patient person that had to wait a long time for their pictures. I am proofing as fast as I can - I promise. Your proofs are on their way, your gallery is up and running. Here are a few of my favs from this session...

Johnson Wedding.

2010-12-17T08:32:00.002-07:00

I shot this wedding several weeks ago, but with all the Christmas pictures that I have had to proof it has taken me a while to get to the wedding pics. Thanks for being patient Jamee. You looked beautiful and I loved the shoes! Here is a little preview of the Johnson Wedding...

Wishing you two all the best in everything you do. Thanks for letting me be a part of your special day.

A Winter Wonderland Photo Shoot.

2010-12-06T22:02:00.002-07:00

I wasn't really looking forward to having a photo shoot during a snow storm, but now that it is over, and I am warm, I can say that it was sooooo worth being cold and fighting the weather for this shoot. I LOVE how these pics in the snow turned out. I hope that you love them too Jaime...

After going up the mountain for their "formal" shoot, we went back down to add a few more faces to the pictures...

These models - as photogenic as they are - are not the most cooperative. They were quite interested in my camera. Every time I turned around another big head was sniffing me and my equipment...it is a good thing that they are fun to photograph :)...

They are definitely loved, but they would not pose quite like we wanted them to.

Jaime and I have more ideas in our heads for these beautiful horses, so they will be in a future shoot for sure...

I don't think that I will invite these models to our next shoot. They are way uncooperative and they like to sniff things and places that are inappropriate for pictures. Let's be honest...they frighten me...I am not convinced that they like me yet...they are only going to get bigger too which pretty much might take them out of the running for top model material in my book. Unless of course I can keep a fence in between us. :) Thanks for the great time wild bunch!

The Nutcracker.

2010-12-02T13:45:00.003-07:00

I was able to take pictures of cute little Miss Kennedy in her ballet outfits. She gets to dance the part of Clara in Center Stage's annual Nutcracker ballet. I am sure she will do great and I wish her the best of luck in all of her performances!

Good Luck and Have Fun!

Wilcox Family.

2010-12-02T12:55:00.002-07:00

It was fun taking this little families pics. They were supposed to be taken on the river, but when I got there I realized that the river was practically empty. Then we went down onto the banks and found some great spots. When it was all done, I was actually glad that there was not any water in the river. Here is your preview Hailey...

Mr. Blue Eyes.

2010-11-23T19:14:00.004-07:00

I am in love with this little boy. He is FABulous! I love his BLUE eyes. I had so much fun proofing these pics. Here is a little preview for you Whitney. Your proofs are on their way and I will be calling you soon...

The above shot is my favorite!

The poor little guy was soooo cold by the time we did the family pics, he was pretty much done. But I still think that he is cute, even when he is freezing.

Alex.

2010-11-08T14:03:00.002-07:00

I am posting a lot of pictures again. I had so much fun shooting Alex's senior pics. I am not sure that he had as much fun as his Mom and I did, but I appreciate him putting up with us telling him what to do for so long. Here is your preview...

Anderson Family.

2010-11-01T12:04:00.002-06:00

Prepare for picture overload. With 4 darling little girls to photograph, I just couldn't narrow it down, so I posted quite a few. Anderson Fam - thanks for being patient with me, your proofs just showed up and I will be calling you today...

Karter.

2010-10-28T13:28:00.001-06:00

I love 1 year old photo shoots. They totally wear me out, but are so much fun. I love capturing the personalities of these little ones. Karter was entertaining from the moment I walked in the door. Thanks for letting me capture your little man...

Dayley Family.

2010-10-08T17:00:00.002-06:00

The Dayley Family brought 4 generations for their photo shoot. How fun to have all of them there for the pictures. Here is a little preview for you Karen...many more to come...

Nelson Grandchildren.

2010-10-02T12:15:00.002-06:00

The Nelson Grandkids came for their photo shoot in the most darling little dresses. (I need to find out if whom ever made the dresses has a link that I can post on here for everyone.) The girls are too cute and these dresses were fab. Stran was handsome surrounded by all the fluff. What a man to keep up with all those girls. :)

I love those blue eyes.

There are sooo many quotes that I could attach to the above photo...

Stran.

2010-10-02T10:45:00.001-06:00

Remember this little boy...

He turned 1!!!

He is just as cute at 1 as he was as a newborn...

Elizabeth.

2010-10-02T10:11:00.002-06:00

Elizabeth and the Comet were heading off to college and I thought that she needed a little photo shoot of the 2 of them before they left. It was a fun little shoot. I hope that you are having a blast Elizabeth and that the Comet is reliable for you.

Seely Family.

2010-09-16T17:27:00.002-06:00

I am a little behind on blogging. The Seely family already has their pics, but I still wanted to get a few of them up here...

Douglass Wedding.

2010-09-01T14:01:00.003-06:00

Here are some of the shots from the Douglass Wedding...

The bride was gorgeous.

The bridesmaids were all darling.

The men rocked the tuxes.

The details were amazing.

I LOVE the above shot!

I took this picture of the above cupcake...and then I ate it. :) The food was great.

Wishing you two Good Luck in all you do... Thanks for letting me be a part of your big day. It was PERFECT.

Baker Fam.

2010-08-30T17:18:00.002-06:00

I LOVE when my clients have not only their own location, but also their own props. It makes my job so easy. The Baker family has such a beautiful home that it was easy to find good spots for pictures. We ran out of light before we ran out of picture locations.

Brooke Bridals.

2010-08-25T10:13:00.004-06:00

Gorgeous Bride + Beautiful Location = Fabulousness

I loved being a part of this wedding. The big day was wonderful and I am working on plenty of great pictures. I will post some when I am finished.

Dayley.

2010-08-20T13:33:00.002-06:00

This little family was fun to shoot. We had to change our schedule around the rain storm that wanted to appear, but it all worked out and I think that we were able to get some great shots. These two little girls are future models for sure. They know how to work the camera! I love it! Your proofs are on their way and I will be calling you soon...

The above shot is one of my all-time favorites!

Ormond Family.

2010-08-11T16:37:00.002-06:00

What a fun family. It was definitely good times taking these pictures. I think that we were able to get a lot of good shots. I love the background. We were also lucky enough to have a nice cloudy perfectly lit day. It is so nice when everything comes together without much effort on my part. The only thing that I had to worry about was being entertaining enough to get all of the babies to look at me. I am glad that no one was taking a picture in my direction, I am sure it would have been a lovely image...:)

Jaydn.

2010-08-02T16:24:00.002-06:00

Okay...prepare for picture overload...this little boy totally ROCKS the camera! He was the funnest little guy to photograph. He came with his own poses and a grin that's to die for, so my job was pretty easy. Thanks to his mom for being sooo patient with me. She has had to wait through a family vacation and a week of Dance Festival Pictures before I was able to proof her session. There are a lot of pictures coming your way Deborah. Sometimes too many pictures makes it hard to choose which ones you want and can be a little overwhelming, but I figure it is your fault that he is so cute and easy to photograph. So you will have to put up with LOTS of pictures on your gallery. Here is a little preview...

After the shoot Jaydn got to change into his suit and do some tricks for me into the river. He is a brave little boy that will do anything for a good pic. He is right up my alley! Thanks for a great time Jaydn!

International Dance Festival.

2010-07-30T11:59:00.003-06:00

I have been busy this week getting to know and taking pictures of dancers from around the world. It has been an amazing experience. A lot of work - yes, but something that I won't ever forget. It has been so much fun working with these people. I have gotten to know some of them very well and it has been great. One of my new friends is a journalist from Egypt and he is putting some of my photos in his Egyptian paper. Awesome! I really think that he has just become my friend because he wants my pics, but I'm okay with it. :) (he really is a nice guy and very complimentary) Doesn't it make me a world known photographer if my work is in Egypt. Ya, let's go with that!

I just want to give a shout out for the International Dance Festival Performance tonight. If you haven't been yet, you should definitely go and see these countries perform. My husband is the least cultural person I know. I have to bribe him to go to anything remotely cultural with me and after helping me yesterday, he WANTS to go tonight! It is something worth taking your family to for sure. Here is a glimpse of the performers...

I don't know what the above instrument is, but I want one. It makes the coolest sound. I might have to travel to Thailand someday and pick one up.

I also want one of these. I just think it looks neat! I will pick one of these up while I am there.

I just want to let everyone know that this summer has been great and I have been keeping very busy. THANKS to all of you that have worked with me so far. I am filling up fast. I only have 3 openings left in August for photo shoots. So let me know soon if you want to schedule a session with me before summer is over.
Thanks so much for all the support. It is always awesome to get to do the work that you LOVE!

Flygare.

2010-07-16T11:09:00.002-06:00

Another fun family photo shoot. I hope that you like your shots Roxa. Thanks for a fun evening and for the fun girl talk afterwards. It has been way too long. We might have to get together more than every 10 years or so and then we won't have to chat for quite so long.....ha....we probably still would. Love ya Roxa, here is your preview...

Look at those eyes - LOVE them! She is fabulous!

This is one of my favorite shots of the night. The whole family is posed ready to go, but we are missing one...where did he go...the tree of course. What little boy couldn't resist climbing that tree. I totally understand.

Peterson Fam.

2010-07-10T17:08:00.002-06:00

I love this little family. Definitely good times during this shoot. What a photogenic group they were. There are several professional models in the fam - right Julie?! I hope that you enjoy your preview. LOTS more coming your way soon...

I L-O-V-E this shot!!!

Zane.

2010-07-01T11:00:00.004-06:00

I love this little boy! He was the perfect model. He made my job so easy. I loved that his Mom and Aunt had their own props too. It was such a fun shoot. Thanks for sharing your little man with me for a few hours. Lacey, your proofs should be here anyday...

Addisyn.

2010-06-24T17:45:00.002-06:00

Addisyn and her big sister came for a photo shoot. Addisyn was a little upset, but I think that we still stole some good shots. Here is a preview Jennie. I will be calling you as soon as your proofs arrive...

Miller Kids.

2010-06-23T18:37:00.004-06:00

I love these 3 kids! They are darling and we were able to get some great shots of them. They are my niece and nephews so I am probably a little bias, but I have to say that they are great models and I had fun getting to take their pictures. Thanks for letting me steal them away for their shoot Amber...

Cameron Kids.

2010-06-17T11:19:00.002-06:00

I love newborns and their little attitudes. Jake didn't really like me, but I think I stole a few great shots anyway! :) He is adorable and I loved that his big sis is such a big help with him and a super model for me...

Douglass Engagement.

2010-06-09T17:41:00.003-06:00

I had so much fun taking these pictures. What awesome models to get to work with. They were both so cute together. Brooke, your proofs are on their way. I can't wait for the wedding...

The above shot is my very favorite!

Larson.

2010-06-03T22:58:00.002-06:00

I had a great shoot with the Larson family. We were able to get a TON of shots and a TON of them turned out great! Here is your preview...

Computer & Reese.

2010-06-03T15:51:00.003-06:00

I have had a rough couple of weeks with my computer and now after a few times with the computer tech and hearing that my old computer is officially dead, I have a new one and am up and running again. Those of you waiting for your galleries and proofs, thanks for being patient with me. I am moving as fast as I can to get them done for you.

I LOVE newborns. They are very fun to work with. They have their own little personalities already - love it. Here are a few shots from Reese's newborn shoot...

Kree - Round 2

2010-04-30T01:02:00.002-06:00

Gotta love this little boy. He is darling. This was our second try at his photo shoot. It was a lot warmer this time and he didn't stop smiling. There are a ton of pictures coming your way Kelsi...

Vale.

2010-04-16T21:24:00.004-06:00

Loved this little family... They were entertaining from the moment they opened the door! These 4 kids are darling! It was so fun to take their pictures. I am not one to get baby hungry, but take a look at this little bundle of fabulousness (is that a word???)! She would make anyone baby hungry. I wanted to steal her and take her home with me. Her hair was so amazing. I had to fix her bangs for a shot or two! LOVE it! Sabrina your proofs are on their way to me and I will be calling you soon...Enjoy...

Kree.

2010-03-27T23:07:00.002-06:00

Photoshoots don't always go as planned... We do live in Idaho and you never know what the weather will be like. I felt so bad for this cute little boy because it was freezing cold on the day of his shoot. We tried to get a few shots, but it wasn't working. We are going to wait until it is a little warmer for Kree and try it again. I had to post a few pics though, cuz he is just too darling...

Seriously, he is cute from any angle - look at those lashes!

Jillian.

2010-03-05T23:18:00.002-07:00

Little Miss Jillian is just a doll. She laid wherever we put her without making much of a fuss and she loved the warm lights shining on her. I loved watching her Mom take care of her. She is one lucky little girl to have a Mom that loves her SO much. Thanks for sharing Jillian with me for a few hours. It was fun. Here is a preview...

This face cracks me up!

Where Have I Been.

2010-02-27T15:04:00.002-07:00

It has been forever. It seems like I had a long photography vacation after the busy Christmas season. I enjoyed it, but I have been itching to get back into playing with photos. I luckily received a phone call a few days ago and guess what I have been doing...

Ya, I know, she's cute. More to come soon...

Happy Holidays.

2009-12-27T20:27:00.004-07:00

Wishing you all a very Happy Holiday Season

and a Fabulous New Year!

Wedding.

2009-12-22T13:20:00.002-07:00

I don't usually post about weddings, but I thought it would be fun to share a few of these. I sometimes help Brian Tibbetts with his wedding photography. If you ever need a good wedding photographer, call me and I will give you his number. This bride was amazingly photogenic. She looked fabulous...

I love this shot - it makes me happy!

I like that this shot is so blown out. It emphasizes her beauty.

Is it just me or are we all in a better mood now. :)

Turpin.

2009-12-18T16:13:00.002-07:00

What a cute little family. I wanted to post just a few pictures really quickly...

Camrynn & Reigan.

2009-12-06T19:38:00.002-07:00

3 beautiful girls + a camera, backdrops, and lighting = lots of pictures.

What a fun time I had at this little photo shoot! Seriously, 3 absolutely beautiful women in this family, so fun...

Sneek Peek.

2009-12-04T14:45:00.002-07:00

Torri - here is a little peek just for you...

the rest are not far behind...

Garrard Boys.

2009-12-02T16:41:00.002-07:00

I had a little mini session with the Garrard boys to take their "school" pics. The boys picked the location. I loved it. I can't think of anything better than boys and an army tank. Check them out...

Douglass Fam.

2009-11-25T00:09:00.003-07:00

This family totally ROCKS the camera. They were so fun to work with. There were several moments that I had to regain my composure to keep shooting - hilarious. Here is your preview Karla...

When you wear heels to the traintracks, it is a good idea to bring a brother along to get you

from point A to point B.

What would make this pic even better...

...the dog of course. Love it.

My Favorite People.

2009-11-23T10:36:00.002-07:00

Okay, I have a confession to make...I crowded in line. In proofing line that is. I am feeling bad about it so I thought that I would confess. For everyone that is still waiting for your pics - I am constantly working on them and they will be done shortly. Sorry for the wait. I take hundreds of pictures of my kids. They are my most favorite subjects to photograph. However, most of the pictures never even make it on to my computer until it is time to take new ones. I always put them last on the list. So this time I decided to crowd. I didn't have school pics taken of my kids this year - I couldn't justify it. So here are our 2009-2010 school year pictures...

These last three photos are a new vintage that I am trying to work up. I think it still needs a little tweeking, but I would love your feedback on it. Let me know what you think...

Irish Kids.

2009-11-22T14:49:00.002-07:00

Jennifer and I did a little tag teaming on these shots of her cute kids. Jen took the individuals and I took the group shots. We then had a little proofing session and proofed them together. I think that we ended up with some great pictures Jen...

I didn't know if this was your favorite group picture or not Jen - I should have let you blog this session so that all your favs were on here.

LOVE this shot.

I love that Jason is falling in this one.

Jen's favorite part of these outfits would be the socks. We had to get a good shot of the socks.

Bowen Family.

2009-11-18T12:12:00.004-07:00

Prepare for picture overload. Sometimes I just can't narrow it down. Talk about darling kids. Here is your large preview Carrie, the rest are not far behind...ENJOY...

Pruitt.

2009-11-09T22:00:00.002-07:00

It was a cold morning for this families photo shoot. The little girls did a great job considering the fact that they were so cold. Jennifer did an excellent job at pulling their little personalities out of them. I really just had to aim and shoot. After it was all over the girls fell asleep in the car on the way home... I think that Jen was the one that deserved the nap! It made for some pretty cute shots though...

Matthews Family.

2009-11-03T22:42:00.004-07:00

The Matthews family came back for their annual family photo shoot. They are my longest standing clients. They put up with me when I was just pretending to be a photographer. :) I appreciate your loyalty through the good and the bad pics Jess. I hope that you enjoy your little preview. The rest are not far behind...

I still don't have Libby convinced that getting pictures taken is a fun thing. By next year, I will have her trained - or she will have me trained. One or the other.

The red chair was the hit of the shoot. Libby loved it and placed it wherever she wanted it to be. I removed it from a lot of the shots, but I think that she had good placement in this photo. Maybe I will hire her as my prop assistant.

Christmas Info.

2009-10-26T22:46:00.003-06:00

I am putting a deadline on photo sessions for Christmas pictures this year. Last year my whole month of December was totally stretched to the max. In hopes of relieving some of my stress, and guaranteeing you the best quality work on your photos, we would like you to book your sessions by November 16th. You can always book after that, but we will not promise that your galleries will be up in time to order Christmas cards. Give us a call soon to book your spot! Thanks, Emily & Jennifer

Madison.

2009-10-23T22:38:00.002-06:00

Little Madison is quite cute. It was pretty easy to capture some darling shots...

Jason.

2009-10-20T23:07:00.002-06:00

Meet Jason - the newest member of the Moment Photography team. We are now 2 moms with 7 children. What a fun addition he is...

You don't want to be my friend or I will show up at the hospital armed with my camera before your child is 24 hours old. I also won't care if I am bugging you, I just want the good shots. :)

Day One.

A couple of weeks can make a big difference...

Jason was not happy with us for taking his clothes off, but there is something about the tear rolling down his face in this shot that I love.

Nelson.

2009-10-18T15:04:00.004-06:00

What a cute family. I love taking pictures when they are all so photogenic - it makes my job easy. Sorry they took me so long to proof. Here is a little preview...

Love this shot.

Hope.

2009-10-09T21:28:00.002-06:00

Here is a photo from a session that I never got time to post. I LOVE this shot. Just wanted to share it with you before I took it off of my computer...

Darling white dress + a little dirt = a great photo shoot!

Britton

2009-10-03T10:53:00.004-06:00

This little woman would not sleep for us. Her Mom wanted a few sleepy shots, but she was determined to not miss a thing. She was a great baby though. She let us do whatever we wanted and we never heard more than a peep from her. It is always a fun session when they never get too upset with me. Here is your preview Jamie...

Stran

2009-09-15T11:44:00.003-06:00

My new addiction in life is this little baby boy. I have had a blast editing all of his pics. I didn't have it in me to delete very many, so Megan, expect a TON of pics coming your way. Here is a very large preview...

Makenna

2009-08-01T11:12:00.002-06:00

Makenna turned 3! We met for some pictures. I love that she poses for me for a good 30 minutes, I get about 200 shots, and then she is done. Here is your preview Mindy...

Layne.

2009-07-13T14:02:00.002-06:00

I had a blast taking these pics. I wish that I could take all of my Burley clients to Salt Lake for their shoots. So many good spots to take pictures. Here is a HUGE preview for you Sarah, hope you love them as much as I do (It is easy to take great shots when I have a darling subject - Thanks Layne)....

*Note to Photographers- DO NOT TAKE PICTURES IN FRONT OF THIS WALL. As awesome as it is, it is not worth having a run in with the cops over! Apparently, you can not be within a certain amount of feet to the Trax tracks.

Harper Family Pictures

Here is the link for the Harper Family Reunion Pics...

I think that Brian Tibbets did a great job. You can order prints from this site or save the images to your computer. It is really nice of Brian to give us the picture downloads for free, but I would ask you to please order some prints as well. Brian did not let us pay him for his work, (he did it as a favor for me) but I would like him to at least be compensated for his travel and time. We can do that by ordering a few prints.

Craner Family.

2009-06-01T18:28:00.002-06:00

The Craner Family Pictures were as entertaining for me as the Hunter family was. I guess when you have three boys and a girl it doesn't matter the ages, they are going to be a crack up. I can't imagine having 3 brothers. Allison, you are quite a woman to put up with that crew!!! I love my job! I love to get to capture families whether they are just getting started or all grown up and about to go off on their own adventures...

This shoot was taken in the middle of a rain storm. We had a pretty good time even though it was pouring. I bet that we were a sight to see. Thanks Karla for being the umbrella holder and protecting my gear from the rain.

Hunter Fam.

2009-05-06T23:46:00.002-06:00

What do you get when you have 3 hilarious boys & a photographer that can't stop laughing at them...

The Hunter family pictures of course!

These little boys always crack me up. Thank goodness we had Jen there to take over. I seriously couldn't get control of my laughing at certain moments!!! Thanks for the fun. Enjoy!

I love this one of Davin. Look at that little face.

Just in case you didn't get enough of Kaybrie the first time.

Sorry Steff - had to include this one!!!

This was after the photo shoot. They posed themselves. LOVE IT!

Kaybrie

2009-05-03T20:46:00.003-06:00

Cute Kaybrie had a little photo shoot. She wasn't too happy with me, but I think that we got a few cute ones. Here is a little peek for you Steff...

My personal fav.

Levi

2009-04-27T09:46:00.002-06:00

I have to give Levi credit for putting up with 2 women telling him what to do for over an hour. Your a good man. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Jr. Miss

2009-04-23T09:06:00.003-06:00

I just finished proofing the Jr. Miss pictures for this year and I have to say that I am glad I am done. I am kind of tired of looking at all these gorgeous girls. It gets a little depressing after a while. Just kidding. I love that I get to be the behind-the-scenes photographer. It takes a lot of people to keep this program going and it is very impressive to get to witness the unselfish volunteers each year!

Blog Refresh!

2009-04-16T10:46:00.004-06:00

It has been a while since I have updated my blog, so I decided to post a cute Easter picture on here. Bodey was trying hard to find those eggs! Well, his dad was anyway. I will be posting more sessions as I get them proofed. So stay tuned...

Matthews Fam

2008-12-12T18:52:00.002-07:00

More Christmas Cards!!! I have been a little swamped with Christmas cards lately, but I am loving to design them. Jess came over to work up her card and this is what we came up with. Way fun!

Libby was not impressed with me at all for this photo shoot. I still think that she is cute even if she was a little irritated.

The Bowen Family

2008-12-10T21:50:00.005-07:00

The Bowen Family had a little Christmas card photo session. Here are some of the shots that we took.

Braxtyn is quite attached to "Linus", the blanket. I felt it very appropriate that they get a little camera time together. (It was also a little bribery to get him to cooperate on the other pics!)

I might be a little bias because he is my nephew, but I think that this pic of Bodey is darling!

Senior Pics

2008-12-02T14:17:00.004-07:00

Here are some of Kenzi's Senior Pics. I loved this shoot. Kenzi is great to work with. I would like to take all the credit for these pictures, but I have to admit that Kenz is so photogenic that it makes my job easy. Thanks for the fun!

Sorry! I just realized that all the pics I chose to put on the blog are of you not smiling Kenz. I do think that you are cute when you smile, but I must love your serious face the most.

My Favorite People.

2008-11-30T23:50:00.002-07:00

These are 3 of my favorite people. I am trying to figure out how to post larger pics, so I decided to use this photo. I think that it definitely depicts their little personalities.

Drenker Family

2008-11-26T18:13:00.002-07:00

We started these family pictures out in their tree fort and then went to the train tracks. It was a short session, but I think that we were able to get a few good shots and that you guys had a lot of fun. Thanks Maureen!

Just One!

2008-11-24T19:34:00.002-07:00

I had to proof just one for you Karla - I will work on the others soon.

Jones

2008-11-21T19:44:00.004-07:00

The Jones Family has a new addition, cute little Claire. Claire brought her siblings with her for this photo shoot and as always - they were all smiles. It is so fun to get to photograph such cute kids!!! I hope you like the pics Jen.

Burton Family

2008-11-17T10:17:00.003-07:00

I am swamped with pictures to proof, so everyone try and be patient with me. I will post peeks of all of the latest sessions soon, but for now, we will start with this little family.

Cami, you picked the perfect spot for us to use. It was fun to get back in the groove. Thank you so much for putting up with me. I am so glad that we FINALLY got these taken. ENJOY!

Kenzi, Kenzi, Kenzi...

2008-09-25T20:39:00.000-06:00

Kenzi is a senior this year and her Mom asked me to come to several of her events and document them through pictures. I think that it is a cute idea and that it will be quite fun. We will be doing some formal senior pictures soon, but for now, here is a little sneak peek.

The Reception!

2008-09-25T19:38:00.000-06:00

I have finally finished proofing the Reception pictures for Helen and Avery. It was a great atmosphere. I love outdoor receptions! I enjoyed getting to be there and trying to capture it all. I hope that you enjoy your pics Helen!

Cain Family

2008-09-05T23:13:00.001-06:00

Okay, I tried not to post too many pictures of this cute little family, but I just couldn't help it. I had too many favorites to pick from. Abby, here is your preview, I hope that you like them...

Hansen Bridals

2008-08-26T21:53:00.000-06:00

Helen cracks me up! I loved taking these pictures - because SHE was loving it. She was so much fun, she made my job easy. I am excited to get to see what we come up with at the reception! Here are a few of my favs...

MaKenna

2008-07-09T22:38:00.000-06:00

Miss MaKenna turned 2! Her mom ask me to take some pictures. What a trooper she was. It read 101 degrees when I got back in my car that day, but she was all smiles for us. We did have to wait a few times while she was busy bossing her big brothers around, but once she set them straight, she was good to go again. I know who the boss is in their home....go MaKenna! I had sooo many favs from this shoot that it was hard to pick just a few. Here is your preview Mindy...

Travis & Brianna Jones - June 20, 2008

I was fortunate enough to get to capture the wedding reception for the Call/Jones wedding. The yard was beautiful and the weather was perfect. Brianna, here is a preview of your pictures. I tried to put a variety on here for you. I will finish the rest up this weekend. Thank-you for letting me share in your special day. (Travis - Thanks for putting up with me, I will never ask you to be in another picture again, promise!!!) Enjoy!

Jacee & Libby

2008-06-26T13:59:00.000-06:00

I have been the Matthews Family Photographer for several years now. I love that I get so many opportunities to take pics of these two cuties!

Jacee likes to be the one in charge of the posing. Here she is posing herself!

I hope that you like the pictures Jessie.

Case

2008-06-18T13:10:00.000-06:00

Meet Case. He came into this world a whopping 10lbs. 6oz. He is a very handsome little boy. I loved photographing Case because he let us do whatever we wanted. We hardly heard a sound from him. He would get a little mad, then quickly calm himself down. Now that is my kind of baby. Here are a few of my favs to share with you.

Cole

2008-05-21T13:57:00.000-06:00

I had a great time photographing Cole. He has a lot of energy and wanted to be playing with the cousins in the other room more than he wanted to pose for me. Wouldn't any 7 year old rather play than pose! I think that this would have to be my fastest photo shoot so far, but we were still able to grab some cute shots of him between the running around the room and stunts that he was doing for us. Good entertainment! Thanks Cole!

Magic Valley Irish Dancers

2008-05-14T14:40:00.000-06:00

Meet the Magic Valley Irish Dancers! They are taught by Stephanie Jeffs and are as fun to watch dance as they are to photograph. By the end of our session, these energetic little girls were posing themselves, which happen to be some of my favorite pics. Thanks for letting us capture your personalities!
(Garrett - You are a good man to put up with all of us for so long! Thanks!)

Rodeo Time

2008-05-06T14:32:00.000-06:00

I got to spend an afternoon at the high school rodeo taking pictures. It was very fun, I don't know who enjoyed it more, my kids watching all of the animals, or me capturing them on my camera. Here is a preview. Jessica and Taylor are the cute cowgirls that are featured in the pictures. Thanks for posing girls!!!
