Closed Until September

2011-08-08T10:08:00.000-07:00

I'm closing up shop for a little while. My husband and I are expecting our first child and I've had pretty bad "morning" sickness so I've decided to take a few weeks off in hopes that it will pass. Depending if I get a teaching job or not, I will begin doing sessions again in September. If you have questions, don't hesitate to email me. Thanks for your understanding and support.

Jodie & Conner's wedding was beautiful! I'm glad they called me in December and asked me to make an exception and photograph their wedding! The black and whites from this wedding were stunning so I decided to only post some black and whites!

My Graduation Announcement

2011-05-05T11:00:00.000-07:00

On the back I had a Thank You Message to friends and family with my teaching blog to keep up on what we're up to in the classroom.

We're back in business!

2011-04-07T17:56:00.000-07:00

Thanks for sticking by me the past few months! It was such a hard decision to close, but I needed to focus on my schooling. On April 22, 2011, I will become the first woman in the history of my family to graduate from college. I will be graduating with a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with an emphasis in Mathematics and Visual Art. I'll also be graduating with high honors! I'm super excited to be done and to start a new chapter in my life. I am also excited to get back to photography!

I am now booking for May-August! Spread the word!

Amber's Baptism

2010-09-13T15:51:00.000-07:00

My little cousin, "B," got baptized this past Saturday. We took a few quick images outside the church. Some in the grass and with her dad and a few with a blanket she was given to remind her of how the Holy Ghost makes her feel. My all time favorites are the ones with her daddy. Precious.

2009-08-17T07:06:00.000-07:00

Do I even need to say how fun this couple was?

{Thank You} Thank you! Thank you!

2009-08-14T08:05:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was my last wedding of the summer before school starts and I just wanted to say THANKS to all the brides and grooms from this summer. It's been such an amazing experience to start my dream of owning my own photography business (I never thought it would have happened so soon). Yesterday was bittersweet--- I am looking forward to starting my first level in the education program, but oh how I am going to miss photographing weddings until next summer (I am still doing family, seniors, etc.). I am glad the summer ended with the one it did. Sarah and Derek were an incredibly fun couple. They both have great personalities and enjoy being with each other. Most importantly, the wedding was at the Bountiful Temple so it was extra fun for me since that's where I was married to my sweetheart.

Again, thank you for an incredible summer and experience! Good luck to all the newlyweds... marriage is so awesome!

I'll continue to post pictures from the summer weddings over the next few months and as a reminder, I am still booking sessions for families, seniors, etc. I'll start doing weddings again April of 2010. (If you're lucky I'll do one or two weddings during the school year... I don't know if I can wait until April!!! Email me!)

About My Faith

2009-07-16T07:53:00.000-07:00

I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I can't express to anyone the direction, comfort, and happiness being a member of the church has brought me. I know this is the true church upon the earth today and I'm grateful for a Heavenly Father who knows me and loves me. I know Jesus Christ died for each of us so we can repent and be clean again. I know that Joseph Smith was a true prophet and that President Thomas S. Monson is the true and living prophet on the earth today. I know the Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ. I am grateful for the stories and messages within it that help me to understand my life better each day. I know the church is true and I challenge you to read the Book of Mormon and pray to know if it is true. I testify that if you have an open heart and mind that you will feel of the Spirit and know of the truthfulness of the everlasting gospel.

{ Jess & Jon } Old Photo

2009-05-21T12:34:00.000-07:00

Every time I go into Deseret Book or some place showing LDS art work, I LOVE the old antique look that has started to be done and every time I think, "I can do that." They are SO expensive, so here is my inexpensive version (first try).

{ Jodie } Sweet & Sassy

2009-05-20T15:31:00.000-07:00

I always think I have a favorite type of session (weddings, engagements, seniors, etc.), but each session I say "I love shooting {insert session}!" Well, let's not change anything... I LOVE SHOOTING Senior Portraits. Jodie is such a fun girl and it's been fun watching her grow up. Congrats, Jodie! Enjoy graduating!

2009-05-14T17:01:00.000-07:00

I LOVE the "rustic" country look so it was a perfect match when Jess asked me to do her photography! She is a country girl so had a great location in mind in Logan. The colors were fun and they were even more fun! I am excited for bridal/groomals! (Can you tell I had a blast editing these photos!? I wish I could post them all!) They were going for a more high style look so here is what I came up with:

{ Jodie } Senior Sneak Peek

2009-05-11T15:52:00.001-07:00

Jodie is my best friend's sister. I have known her for MANY years! It's crazy she is graduating. I had a blast being with her and Jaimie to photograph Jodie's Senior Portraits. She has such a fun personality and isn't afraid to work it. More to come!!!

2009-04-23T13:33:00.000-07:00

I knew I could make my own graduation announcements so here is what I came up with! Green is my favorite color! I did a print across it as well and played around with the font. My reason for showing you this: if you want I can design announcements... it's just not something I specifically advertise for!

So, I had to post this photo separately. Can you notice anything in the first one? I outlined it in the second. Check it out! I didn't do any Photoshop to it. The light did this all on it's own!

{Rachelle & Shane} Love at first sight!

Thanks so much to J and J. They have been so patient with me over the past few weeks as I have been very busy and limited to editing.

J and I went to school together (even took photography together) in high school. They have been married almost two years! And I just noticed, I only posted black and white.

I had the privilege of photographing the engagements of this fun couple! They have known each other for over eleven years and have been dating since September. They are such a cute couple and so in love! The first in my favorite!

I have to say that I have never seen a couple so in love as I have this one. I have LOTS more pictures to post!

{Bridal Show} My First!

2009-03-23T15:50:00.000-07:00

Thanks to those of you who stopped by my booth on Saturday! It was such a big step for me and I am so glad that I was able to do it! Sorry if you missed me! The show ended an hour early and kind of two hours early when they realized that had a wedding booked at the same time and ended up completely moving my booth (as well as others)! I was not too happy as I had set up the day before and next thing you know they are moving everything and I was squished in a little space and my stuff wasn't set up how I had it! However, it was a great experience! Here is a picture!

(Thanks to my sister-n-law, Katie, who helped me that day of and to my in-laws who helped me set up and take down!)

{Logo} My first!

Yay! I finally have a new logo design! Here it is! Carly is such a great designer! She will be doing my business cards next and blog and some other things! I love it! It represents Chris and Me. Chris loves blue and I love green and can I just say I LOVE my middle name! Thanks, Grandma!

This gorgeous bride gets married on Saturday! I just had fun with these. High contrast, low saturation. I tried some different lighting techniques in Photoshop. These were some of my favorites!

{Little Miss K} Pretty girl!

Something Different

2009-02-19T08:10:00.000-08:00

These two beautiful girls offered to be my models for me to try taking some different pictures than I normally do. One being very bright photos. You would never guess the age of these girls! They look and act so much older than they are! I have MANY more pictures of both girls and will get them up soon. By the way, NONE of these photos are edited. Straight from the camera!Here is a sneak peek!

I love the shadow behind her. This picture makes me think that she is searching for herself.

{Stace & Devin} Perfect Day

The pictures beautifully speak for themselves. Shooting Stacie and Devin's wedding was amazing! They are a wonderful couple and were so much fun to work with!

Whomever said you couldn't be in front of the camera and behind it at the same time? I took our family pictures. My mom changed her mind and decided she didn't want another photographer taking them cause she hates pictures so... the use of a timer is marvelous. I would change two things in this pictures, but I'll leave it up to you to decide. All I can say is that for a picture I took and am in... it's pretty good!

Polaroids, made EASY!

Teeth Whitening-Before/After

2008-09-01T15:17:00.001-07:00

Teeth whitening is such a great invention for photoshop! I whiten teeth in all final photos--- for brides, families, etc (Included in pricing!).

It's all about the details!

2008-09-01T15:17:00.000-07:00

I love getting the details of a wedding. Here are the details of the beautiful bride!
