This energetic little man is SO CUTE! We were lucky to get him to sit still for one second (which I don't think he ever did). Good thing great pictures can come through in spite of the spirit of a 2 year old! Here's a sneak peek for mom, dad, grandma and grandpa (and yes, even for the little man).
As for location I owe this one to the family . . . it's the Outdoor amphitheater in Logan Canyon, to die for neat!

WORKSHOPS . . .

I have had a lot of people ask about when our next workshop will be . . . I have created a blog just for workshop info! We have two in the works now, another beginners one and the COOLEST business photography workshop that will TOTALLY set you up if you want to get started with your own photography business! I really wish there was a workshop like this for me when I started. Check out the details by clicking on the 'PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP' link to the right! Wahoo! Also, please take some time to vote on the polls listed on that blog. Thanks.

Words can't describe how DARLING these little girls are, so I'll let the pictures do the talkin' Here's a sneak peek for mom and dad from our photo shoot. I love this family and have enjoyed photographing them for a couple years now and hope to do so for a lot more! Thanks you guys!

Oh and now that we are teaching we are sharing!  Yay!   So . . . this spot is the same as the other "grass field" spot on my earlier two sittings.  It's located in Liberty at North Fork Park in a camp spot called Cutler Flats.  Lots of fun and full of fall colors this time of year too.  
I shot these pictures with my 50 mm canon lens at 1.8

Giving Back . . .

Photobucket
This time of year can be hard for families and I want to find a way to give back. I am taking the month of December off for my own family time, but I want to offer a FREE family sitting, copyright cd and 11x14 mounted print to a family in need. Please notify me via email of a family you may know who you feel would benefit from this experience. The sitting will take place in the first two weeks in December and the family must live in Weber or Davis Counties. I will be "accepting" family names and stories until November 15th and a decision will be announced November 20th. Please make sure that a sitting is something this family would be willing to do. Thanks! (my email address is listed to the right.)

Nov. 16th - Thanks to all of the nominators for their time in sending me the great stories they did, I will be notifying you soon of where to go from here. Thanks again!

Thank You Thank You!

Thanks for the fun workshop today! I would really like to keep in contact with everyone and find out how they are doing on their new found abilities. So . . . please send me an email with your information (my email address is to the right) if I don't already have it and we'll keep in touch! Feel free to call or email ANY TIME you have questions. Thanks again and we'll be doing a more "business" related workshop in January some time, more details to come. This will be a much more "specialized" class and will be limited to 6 to 8 people, but will greatly help you in getting started on your photography business.
Thanks!

Work in Progress . . .

I am trying to update my blog so hopefully it is still viewable to you :) I figured out how to make the images larger! Yay! This is a happy day for a photographer. So sorry about the weirdness, I'll have all the images updated that show here soon, but I don't think I'll go WAY to far back, just the posts that show :) If you don't like the new look let me know or if you do . . . let me know that too! Thanks!

The Holiday Season is on it's way . . .


So the holiday season is quickly approaching and I have changed my cards this year.  All of the cards will be printed on both sides of a heavy paper with a pearl finish (beautiful!)  They will include envelopes and the cost will be as follows:  4 x 5.5 size - 25 count - $50.00  5x5 size - 25 count - $65  Check out the layouts I have so far by clicking here. Or clicking on Holiday Cards to the right.  I will be adding folded cards (including the fabulous 5x5 trifold) so keep checking back for the newest additions.  Cards may be customized to fit your style.  I am trying to capture everything from classic to contemporary.

Orders must be placed by Nov. 30th
