Children Photography | Utah Children Photographer

This was such a fun idea for a first birthday – and this little girl was to die for.  This type of photography is more of a photojournalistic approach, more like a wedding reception.  It’s fun to hide behind the lens and capture moments when nobody knows you are clicking away.

It ended up raining, pouring rain the whole time – so was a let down as far as the weather goes because the whole party was supposed to be around the farm animals and riding the ponies, etc.  It also made the photography more difficult since we were inside a room the whole time which I wasn’t really planning on, good thing I have my sb900 flash in my bag for back up.

I love when Mom’s go all out on birthday parties for their kids, so much fun.  I took photos of family members, etc. but thought I would focus the post more on the birthday girl.

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 | Reflection Perfection

This is one of my favorite Newborn Photography sessions, ever, I can’t believe it took me so long to post it, okay I can believe it, but you know.  There is something about the clean, beautiful water, and the sweet perfection of the reflection that was so magical.  It was so beautiful while I was shooting, I actually started to cry – SO embarrassing, but I’m so passionate about my work, and to see the mother with her brand new baby in the water, I just thought was so beautiful.

This baby was SO sweet, she was perfection, not even a cry out of her the whole time, and the sweetest, cutest little smile.  After shoots like that it is hard for me to not want another baby (well after all Newborn shoots I want another baby), whenever I hold one I can hardly take the feeling I get holding a brand new baby.

I have been doing tons of commercial photography lately, shoot after shoot after shoot…. I’m exhausted.  I do love it, but it is very high stress…I shot Jumina’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection, not posting the photos now, but here is a video of some of the photos! Thanks to Koko Blush for helping make the shoot happen!

This shoot by far took the most time in prepping as far as set building, my hubby and I about lost it putting it all together….  thanks to him for always being so supportive and helping bring my photography dreams to life.

child photography | spring sessions 2012 part 1

Soooo… Spring is in the Air?  Well, it’s getting there and I’m excited for the beautiful blossoms!  I went through and picked out some of my favorites from all of the Spring Sessions I did last there – there were a lot!  So I have three different posts of my favorites, since I couldn’t possibly narrow it down!  And when I do blog posts, I guess all the photos that I show from a session may not be the most amazing photo in the world, but I like to show a little variety so when clients view this kind of stuff they know what to expect in the photography they will get.   I will post part 2 and 3 soon

children photography | Starr

This past Summer I took my beautiful little neighbor, Starr up to my favorite field in the world and played around, I had to snap some photos for Royal Sisters Boutique, who do these amazing head bands/ bows, etc.  So that was the purpose – but how could I not just take some fun candid stuff too? Although I do so much photography, I can never get enough of it, give me a sweet, innocent child and a beautiful field with white flowers and you will literally have to drag me away until I can’t go any higher on my ISO settings… I am SO, so, passionate about what I do and every day feel so lucky to actually be making money at doing something that is so much fun.  When I am at photo shoots, I go into a world where I don’t think about anything else except the shoot at this moment, there is really nothing else that allows me to do that…

I had my little Belle up there with me and was able to get a couple cute ones of her too, so I included those.  I LOVED the cute dress that Starr was wearing when I saw her that afternoon, I need to ask her what brand it was, if I forget to comment and somebody wants to know, remind me.  But I wasn’t planning on taking photos of her, I just knew I had to get these headbands shot  and when I saw her it inspired me to take her to this lovely place and take some photos.  I love that her hair was so natural and not perfectly curled, etc.  That is my favorite look on a child.

There are wild apple trees at this place (not in these pics), and it is the ONLY location I really keep to myself, I have never seen another photographer there and if the word got out I feel like there would be a million photographers there 24/7 because of it’s beauty and variety. I like to go there with my kids in the summer, sometimes in the late afternoon or sometimes in the middle of the day, just to run around, throw rocks, etc.  They named it officially, “Apple Crisp” park.  It is where I have taken some amazing fall color pictures I get asked about a lot… I think I get asked hundreds of times a year where this place is… I can’t wait to go there this Spring… hmmmm, just thinking about it sort of put me in a trance of “wanting summer and no more winter”… it gets hard every year in Utah for me around March, when you are craving Spring and Summer and sort of done with the snow.  Although, I’m not a “winter hater” like some around here, I actually love the whimsical white beauty of snow and the cold doesn’t bother me.

Okay, so back to the photos…  so we really only spent about 15 minutes taking these and it was later than “golden hour”, so normally would have shot them earlier, but I still think they are pretty.
