Meet my newest 6 month old client and his dog, Hammer. Aren’t these 2 just the cutest duo? I can already tell they will be up to mischief in no time as soon as he starts to crawl. hehe

This children’s portrait session took place in the client’s home and made for a more relaxed setting.  I highly recommend this for any clients with little ones. It just makes the portrait session much more personal and allows for candid portrait moments. Like the pickle in this case. Nothing feels better on a teething child’s gums than a pickle I guess? He loves them and it cracks me up just looking at the photos.

Here is a glimpse into the six month old portrait session, enjoy

If you’re in the Layton, Clearfield, Ogden, Syracuse or Bountiful Utah areas and interested an in home portrait session please contact  me for more details.

I feel so blessed that this senior found me! She was my first senior portrait session I’ve done so of course I wasn’t sure what to expect.  In the end I loved it and can’t wait for my next senior photography session.Jody is my newest senior rep from Freemont High School in Plain City Utah. We got to enjoy the beautiful sunshine in Ogden and take some awesome senior portraits! She’s very involved with dance on the Ogden Knights , school choir and the recent recipient of the Miss Weber State Talent Scholarship.

Congratulations Jody on graduating this May!  You’re awesome and a very talented lady. I know there’s nothing but success in your bright future.

I can’t believe my little cousin is getting married!  Actually yes I can she’s a great catch; she’s a beautiful woman both inside and out. Has a heart like no other and a humorous side that could make anyone laugh. It feels like just yesterday we were hanging out in grandma’s closet founding members of the “zeddy club” or encountering a bear at the lake (thanks again for saving my life that summer).

Last month I was honored to take her winter engagement photos for her upcoming wedding this June! It’s going to be a blast up at Nesslin Lake, Saskatchewan and I am going to be enjoying the wedding on the other side of the lens as a bridesmaid. Pretty crazy stuff but it’s going to be so much fun!

Congratulations once again Brad & Samantha! Hope your engagement is a wonderful, exciting, joyful experience.  Love you both!
