Totah Family Portraits

I am so slow at updating. My busiest month for family photos is November- and I’m posting this session in April! It’s so silly- I love my families, and this one is no exception. Some day I’ll get faster at sharing!

Here they are- the Totah family!

Family Portraits: The Christensens

Family portraits are always so much fun for me. I love having the opportunity to photograph what makes each family unique.

Ian and Tessa are best friends. It’s so sweet to see a big brother that doesn’t just love his sister, but really enjoys being around her.

Tessa wanted to be sure we got a clear shot of her ‘flair’…

Could I have a job more fun than this? I don’t think so.

Olds Family Portraits

I’ve had the privilege of photographing some very memorable events for the Olds family. Every time they call to schedule portraits, I’m beyond excited.

Recently, they added a new member to the family. At this photo session, we took a few pictures to document her 3 month birthday…

She is such a sweet baby, and SO happy!

Rose Family

I’m currently up in Washington State visiting my husband’s family. While here I have had a few photo shoots. Remember my friend Val? She’s the one I did a maternity shoot for in February with my sister in law. Well, baby Lucas is almost 6 months old now!

Cyan looks so much like her mom. Lucky girl!

Even the rough and tumble need some mom time.

By the end of our shoot, little Lucas needed some mom time, too. Only Val could supply what he needed.

It was a fun time, with fun people. I always enjoy our visits!

My friend (and loyal client) Gwen scheduled a photo session several months in advance as she was really excited about her sister’s visit from Ireland.

Have a safe trip home, Brenda and Charlie – and come back soon!

Giggles, Laughs, and a lot of Love

Could you imagine getting six kids all dressed and ready for a family photo session, while maintaining happy attitudes and a positive outlook on the experience? The Mays family did just that- and were such a fun group to photograph! Mays Family

Usually there’s a grumpy one in a family photo session, but not these guys! Each child enjoyed their ‘star’ moment…

Shiloh Little Shiloh was not only cooperative, but accommodating too.

Isaiah Isaiah was glad to share his playful personality.

Darrell Most 8 year old boys are reluctant to have a picture taken, but Darrell was willing and helpful.

Takai Takai has a beautiful smile, and was pleased to share it.

Jasiah Sweet Jasiah. Cute, fun, photogenic.

Anjal Anjal was all smiles, whether the camera was on her or not.

20110513 181434 IMG 1122 What a great group of kids! They were such a joy to work with.

Darrell and Tamara Here they are, the people responsible for this amazing bunch. Thanks for a great session, Darrell and Tamara. I look forward to more!
