Happy Birthday Oaklyne

Little Miss Oaklyne is turning one very soon and she came to the studio full of smiles.  She was absolutely darling and dressed to kill for her one year old portraits.  Happy Birthday cute girl!

Porter Family

What a cute family the Porters are.  And, may I mention what troopers they were as well.  I swear it was the coldest day we've had so far and the kids were all freezing, but they all still managed to smile. 

They color coordinated their clothing perfectly and I love how vibrant they all turned out. 

I love photographing families that make ME smile.  It sure makes my job fun! 

And Jordan...your hands looked awesome!

Brothers

Hudson and Nash are two of the cutest little guys and believe it or not, they are brothers.  I know, one is fair and blonde with striking blue eys and the other dark, brown eyes with gorgeous olive skin.  Both had darling little personalities full of smiles and giggles.

Mom brought a few of their favorite things for them to be photographed with so they would always remember what they loved at this age.  What an awesome idea!

Here are a few of my favorites...

Jason + Sarah = A Cute Family

What do you get when you blend two cute families, seven darling kiddos, and an old fire engine red Chevy truck?  Awesome family portraits. 

When Sarah called and asked to include the old truck in her family portrait shoot, I was so excited.  I had no idea the truck would be "almost" as cute as their gorgeous children! 

Jason & Sarah, I hope you love them all!

Sadie | Utah Children Photographer

Sadie is about to turn the most wonderful age of eight.  

She is very excited for her upcoming baptism and came to my studio to capture some images in her beautiful white dress.  Her favorite colors are blue and green, and I just happened to have a backdrop in those colors  that set her gorgeous dress off perfectly.  It just matched her eyes too.

Congratulations on your special day Sadie. 

You will most certainly look like an angel!

Hudson is Six Months | Utah Children Photographer

I can't believe this darling little guy is already six months old.  Hudson has the cutest smile and the biggest eyes that just twinkle.  I love it every time he comes to visit me, as I just can't get enough of him.

Is he cute or what?

Expecting | Richfield Maternity/Family Photographer

I {heart} this cute little family.  And, I can't tell you how excited I am that they are expecting....

A BOY!

Little Nixon is going to be so well loved that I fear...SPOILAGE!

His two, darling, big sisters are so excited, but nothing compares to the smile that lights up his dad 's face everytime a "boy" is mentioned.  

Mom, is not completely trusting the sonogram and refuses to paint the nursery "blue" until the little guy makes his appearance. 

So little Nixon...I hope you arrive happy, healthy, and with all the sports, hunting, fishing, and frog catching genes a little guy could ever hope for.

Anniston Jo & Parker

Anniston Jo has just turned the most wonderful age of six months.  And, her handsome big brother Parker  informed me that he is "fow"  or four, in cute little boy talk.  What a darling couple of kids they were.  Miss Anniston was very serious while Parker was full of ....well, fourness! 

And, I finally got to document the love hate relationship that siblings have for each other. 

Brother kisses sister...

Sister kisses brother...

Sister yanks on brother's ear, while brother is wondering what he did to deserve such behavior...

And finally, the LOOK..which means I'm sorry, I love you, but it may happen again!

I LOVE photographing children!

Kambree | Richfield Children's Photographer

Two is a fun age.  It's kind of like 16 in a way.  Why you ask...

~They make up their minds and there is no changing it.
~They want everything NOW.
~They have selective hearing - parents are not selected.
~They pout extremely well.
~They have dad wrapped around their little fingers.
~Negotiation is not in their vocabulary
and
~They always want to be on the go.

(sorry 16 year olds!)

Kambree's mom and dad were wondering if we got a decent shot of her through all her two-ness!  My favorite were the pouting shots.  Doesn't every mom and dad have a picture of their two year old pouting during a professional portrait session.  I sure do, everyone of my four children.  And, they are some of my most favorite images.  It gave me some insite into the "sweet" sixteens that were to come.

We did manage to sneek a few smiling shots to show off just how dang cute she is. 

Three is a good year, just so you know!  LOL
