These little sisters are so beautiful!  And they were all a dream to work with…  They needed some photos for their portfolio as they are modeling, and so we tried to give them a few different looks/feels.

Utah Children Photographer

children photography by Frosted Productions

Yes, yes, a year ago or more, yes, yes, I say that in every post, but slowly catching up…  How can I not love Birthday Cake Smash photo shoots?  Cutest. Thing. Ever.

I love to photograph one year olds, I was actually shooting 6-9 month olds tonight for Persnickety Layette Spring Collection – adorable little babes I love it.  I had 16 month old model there as well, and she did great, but I was telling her mother that it is actually harder to shoot 16 month olds versus 6-9 month olds.  I would say between the ages of 16 months and 3 years old is pretty difficult, many little girls get better around 2 1/2, but it is challenging, you have to find things to keep them interested and plan on getting candid photography.

So back to this shoot, whenever I do a birthday cake smash shoot, I like to get some photos before the messy fun begins, I love this name “Saylor” by the way, so cute.  We snuck her big sister in some of the shots as well.  I know I can get all “frilly” and decorate a big huge table with tons of cute little things, balloons, whatever… it’s not that I don’t like that kind of stuff, but I like really simple sometimes like this plain blue backdrop, I thought it looked beautiful, yet fun, clean and cute all at the same time.

Newborn Photography in Utah | The “Bell” of the Ball

The Bell Family was so excited to welcome this beautiful new baby into their home…  She was so sweet and squishy and was patient while we put her into fun little poses.  Since I am literally a year behind in posting, I may not even remember details from post to post – but I have one of my assistants now actually helping me put the blog posts together.  It will also be me writing them, but she can help put the photos in place, etc.  Although my photography has really mainly been commercial shoots lately, I think I will always make time for sweet newborn photography shoots – there is really nothing that compares to them.

Children Fashion Photographer

world wide children fashion photographer

published editorial for babiekins children fashion magazine

I am so excited to post these photos, I have been meaning to for months, I couldn’t publish them until they were published in the magazine, they were for their June/ Summer 2012 issue, and I was so busy when they got published I have been trying to find the time to post them!  There are TONS… after you have a team work so hard on hair, makeup, fashion, etc. I want to make sure as a photographer that I get every possible great shot that I can.

When I was trying to come up with the concept for this shoot, I spent days just thinking about it, I had tons of ideas, but nothing really seemed to stick.  I wanted to do something kind of abstract and eye catching.  Whether the reader liked the photos or not, the goal was to make them stop and stare.  I knew for sure I wanted to use my reflection pool, as I had just used it to shoot the Mia Belle Baby fashion line a month earlier, and thought it would be unique for the magazine.

During this time I was trying to come up with the concept, the Dr. Suess Movie, The Lorax was starting to advertise on TV and there was something about the fluffy, colorful trees that I really liked.  So that’s how the concept began, I came up with it one day and I knew that was it.  I will spend a lot of time, hours and hours coming up with concepts, but when I figure it out, that’s it, I don’t change it, I will do anything at that point to make it happen.

I had an amazing team around me, from the amazing h/m artists, Jamie Howard and Charisse Miller, Fashion stylist, Lindsey Shores, artist Tanner Williams and more.  We had tons of interns, and the models were all so amazing to work with.

I really fought everybody around me on this concept, most people didn’t think I could pull it off as it was on the line of cheesy, or just not working.  It turned out exactly how I wanted it, I created my magical, whimsical, Dr. Suess, abstract children’s forest.  We had designers and children fashion salons send fashion from all over Europe from Children Salon, Young Versace, Bang Bang, Chloe, No Sugar Added and more.

We used live butterflies (first time I used them) – and that was just an added bonus to the shoot.  The models were a little nervous around them at first but then warmed up to them.  You have about 5 minutes when you release the butterflies to get good shots, so it is a little stressful.

A special thanks to my amazing husband who makes my sets come to life.  From the water to how the trees will stand up or hang, to creating the structure under the balls (trees) – I would never in a million years be able to do the type of photography that I do with the sets, etc. if it weren’t for him.  He didn’t sleep the week before this shoot, I am so lucky to have him support me with my weird photography concepts. ;)  I will be shooting in Myrtle Beach in a couple of weeks, and I’m trying to coordinate something pretty unique, he is not too happy about what I am trying to do at the beach…. hehe   Stay tuned so you can see what magic I am trying to create there for Child Model Magazine and the amazing models that were cast for this upcoming shoot.

I have split up the photos into a couple of different pages, so when you get to the bottom of a batch you can click below those to see more photos from the shoot, there are so many, I needed to separate them so you can load the web pages. :)  And sorry if there are typos in my blog posts, I am too lazy to re-read them before I post them.

Children Fashion Photography

mia belle baby leggings and diaper covers collection, children fashion photographer

I did this ummm… a while ago, probably about 6 months ago, see I told you I was catching up. ;)  This shoot was to model leggings, some hair bows and their cute ruffle diaper covers.  Of course not all photos are shown, but because this is for the purpose to show off the leggings, etc. some photos may not stand out as the cutest photo in the world, so thought I would mention that.  Also, whenever I do fashion photo shoots I will also take photos that are close ups, etc. that the company can use for branding or filler photos as well.

Hi!  This is Kalen, Amber’s assistant, I will jump on here from time to time to give updates, so thought I would say a quick “hello” and let you know what has been going on around here!

Fall Family Appointments

If you are looking to do a fall family appointment, we only have a certain amount available and are already booking them all up!  Please call us today at 801.427.7490 to talk to me if you would like amazing, candid, beautiful fall photos for your Christmas cards this year….  Although Amber has so many new family pics she needs to post, here is a link to our Family Photography on our website.  And remember all of our “photography sessions” come with ALL of the digital photos, with tons artistically edited!  A typical family session depending on the location, family size, etc. (indoor/outdoor), usually you end up with 500-1000 digital photos.

We keep certain amount of “family, newborn, children, commercial” appointments available as it is so easy for Amber to become just a “family photographer” or just a “wedding photographer”… and she loves all of the different types of photography so much this is the best way for us to manage that she keeps variety.  She has been moving more and more into a higher percentage of her work being commercial shooting, for companies, clothing lines, etc. which she LOVES.  So, we could have a Newborn Appointment available in a 4 weeks but a family appointment available in 8 weeks if that makes sense.  WHATEVER it is you are looking for from teams to weddings, we will have 2012 completely booked solid very soon, so don’t wait – give us a call!  And if you are one of those that just had a baby and didn’t make an appointment prior, once in a while Amber will open up a spot on our weekly calendar to accommodate depending on her workload, so always give us a call to check, I would love to talk to you!

Blog Update

If you do follow our blog, we realize there hasn’t been much to follow lately – Amber is scrambling to get caught up with things and working into extremely “late/early” hours into the night. ;)  It is a priority to her though and so her old blog WILL start to migrate over, plus she will start posting her new content better… in the mean time, she will post pics once and a while on our Facebook page: Frosted Productions on Facebook, make sure to become a fan there if you haven’t!

Needing Little Girls All Ages for Upcoming Photoshoots

She has about a million photo-shoots coming up where she is need in little girls for clothing lines, hair accessories, shoots for companies websites, etc.  She always gives first opportunity to her fans and their children first before using a modeling agency as for “kid shoots” she believes the natural “child candid look” is so beautiful she generally doesn’t need models.  SO the benefit for our fans kids, is that you get to be apart of these amazing photoshoots and get all of the edited photos that your child is in for freeeeeeeee!!!!

Published in Children’s Fashion Magazine Summer 2012 Issue

One more thing to keep your eyes open for is the new Issue of Babiekins Magazine is set to be released any day – and yes, Amber’s work will be featured!  Wait until you see these pics….  you will be amazed from the set that was created to the extravagant hair, makeup, etc.  We have not been allowed to post any pics from the shoot yet because the magazine doesn’t let us until it’s been published.  IF you are not familiar with Babiekins Magazine , they are a children’s fashion magazine that was recently just featured in Brasil Vogue, so to have our work in it is pretty amazing.  We had clothing shipped from top brands and designers from all over Europe, including Young Versace.  Oh and did I mention that Amber had live butterflies shipped in for this?  Yes, they came on dry ice and we got to see them come to life as they landed on the little girls arms, heads, etc.  It was pretty amazing to be apart of.  The team that Amber had for this from fashion stylist to 4 hair and makeup artists, all the models, interns, assistants…. it was an insane production!  Amber, used “Productions” in our company name when she originally named it because she can do a “production”, you will know what I mean when you see the pics that are coming any day now!
