Have a great Holiday season

I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be taking a christmas break. I would love to book a session for you after Christmas just let me know. Thanks to everyone who booked a holiday session with me I enjoyed every one of them. Sorry I wasn't able to get all of them up on my blog but I have been pretty busy with mini session.
I hope everyone has a Happy Holiday.

Old friends new faces

Today I had the opportunity to photograph an old friend and meet his daughter. Matt and I went to High School together and just recently reconnected on Face book (love reconnecting with old friends). His daughter Kaylee was one of the most adorable little girls ever and she photographed so well. I want to thank you Matt for driving to Tooele and letting me meet your daughter. It was great to see you. Here is a little sneak peak from your session.





Isn't she Beautiful!!!

I love a good silly face and when possible I like to get one with every session of course there are times when a silly face is not possible (a baby or a family session with only a baby). A picture should capture a persons personality and what better way to do this then by having them give me their best silly face. They also make for great collages and cards. Here are some from past sessions more to come as I get them.
Best of all KIDS LOVE IT!!!!

Bryner Kids

What a fun group of kids!!! They were all so well behaved even the two year old. Their session only lasted about 20mins but in that time I was able to get three group pics and individuals of each. When I saw the oldest I was so excited, out here it seems that there are boys every where and no little girls.

Arimijo Family

My sister came over on Sunday to get her family pictures done in my home studio. For those of you who have been in my studio you know it is quite small (in fact it is in a room that is 8x8)so I am only able to fit about 4 children in one sitting and it is tight. I had no problem getting my sister and the baby but Aaron is another story. He is like 6ft 2in and if he were any taller I think he would have hit his head on the ceiling. I love the way the pictures turned out.

Isn't my nephew adorable!!!

Holiday Special

Offer available till December 15th (due to high demand I will not be taking anymore Christmas sessions)

Location, Location, Location

Some of the most unlikely location make for the best pictures. These pictures were taken at an old hospital here in Tooele, it was a little spooky but we got some great pictures. Some things you might want to think about for your next family picture is what look do you want to achieve. If you want more traditional then parks or canyons are perfect. For non traditional try an urban themed session old buildings, fields, and even an old door. Tell me a little bit about your family and I would love to give some suggestions.







When my sister first saw this door she thought I was crazy but it turned out to be her favorite picture from the session.


This picture capture Brooklyn's personality, she is 6 going on 16. Picture should capture the moment, and this picture did just that.

Picture Perfect

Can you say adorable!!! That is exactly what this family is, all of them seem to take the perfect picture. I guess you can say that being photogenic runs in their family. I had the opportunity to photograph Jordan and Taryn last year (the kids) they were one of my first photo shoots. Their pictures turned out great then and this year was no different. Here is a little sneak peak for their mom, I hope you like them Jen. Jen is also a blogger and I love reading what she writes check out her blog it is great http://lordsofthemanor.blogspot.com/

Trick or Treat!!!

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, I love how you can be anything or anyone you want for one day. Not only is it my favorite holiday but it is also one of the most memorable days in my life, my son was born on Halloween two years ago. I thought it would be fun to set up a Halloween scene so that everyone who attended his party would be able to get their picture taken in their costumes. There were so many fun costumes, here are a couple of my favorites.

If you are having a holiday party or even a birthday coming up I would love to come and set something up for you. If you are interested contact me for pricing.

Of course I had to include one of my little boy, this was the only picture I could get of him he is in the terrible two stage

It has finally happened!!!!

I have been waiting 2 1/2 years and finally I was able to get my nephew to look at the camera during his family pictures. We had to play peek a boo behind a ledge but it was worth all the work. Here is a collage I put together to show him and his best friends Woody. Woody has become a part of my sisters family, he even made it in the family photo which I will be posting soon.

Trash the Dress

This location is about 15 mins from my house, I have wanted to use it for quite some time. Originally I was wanting to do senior pictures there (which I still plan on doing) but then I got the opportunity to do a "Trash the Dress" session with my sister.

For those of your who do not know what "Trash the dress" means I will try to explain. When you get married your find your perfect dress wear it once and then it sits in your closet until you decide to pull it out and show your dauther or if you are like me think about how much weight you have put on since you bought it. Another option is take it out get all dolled up and get some unique, fun pictures taken and get to wear your perfect dress one more time. The location can very from a construction site, to a body of water or even a junk yard.

Ok so this isn't very trash the dress but I loved the way the sun was shinning though the tree and couldn't resist

This is my favorite

I love the mood in this picture

Blue eyed cutie

I am focusing on my natural lighting pictures. Here are some I took of my adorable nephew Kaison in front of my back door. They were taken with 100% natural light, it was a quick session only lasting about 5 minutes. He has the most gorgeous blue eyes. He is only 5 1/2 months old but acts and looks alot older. I am going to be taking more pictures of him on Monday so check back to see them. Don't forget to click on the image to view it larger.

Black and White

I love the effect that black and white can give certain photographs. I usually prefer color images but I come across some photographs during processing that I love in black and white. Here are a few examples, all have been processed differently not all black and white are the same.

Ok so this one isn't completely black and white but I love the little color it does show. I'm not big on selective coloring but if it looks natural and on the right picture it can make all the difference.

Happy Birthday Kaden

I had the opportunity to take Kadens one year pictures yesterday, he is such a cute little guy. The entire time I was there taking his pictures he was so calm, didn't even cry. After we got all the pictures we needed he got to do a cake smash, boy did he love it. He was pretty much covered head to toe in frosting by the time it was done.

I love this little blue chair his mom bought it for his sister when she was little

One good picture

Had a mini session with my nephew on Sunday who is now a month old, and when I say a mini session that is and overstatement. I had to hurry and get him while he fell asleep so I put him on a bean bag and draped a blanket over the back of my couch. The whole session was 10mins, I manage to get one great shoot of him before he got upset.

Cake Smash

Braxton is turning one year old and his mother and I decided to have him do a cake smash session to send out on his birthday invites. He loved the cake!!!! He was so into his cake it was hard to get him to look away from it. After he was finished we brought his dog out to enjoy in the fun. Make sure you click on the images to view them larger.

Hope you liked the cake Braxton and Gus

Doesn't he have a face to die for!!!!

Don't forget that I can also make announcements and invitations

Blushing Bride

Dolly was a great model she was a little shy at first but towards the end I was able to get some great natural shoots of her. This is my first bridal session, I still have alot to learn but I love the way her pictures turned out. I cant wait to photograph her wedding.
