Jeppson Family

September 16, 2009

I can’t believe I almost forgot to post this awesome family photo session. The Jeppson’s were easy to work with, not only because they are gorgeous, and stylish, but also because they are an all around nice family. Their kids were so fun to work with and just had fun playing outside together. Summer is almost gone now. The morning’s are cold enough to be jacket worthy and its just not hot enough during the day to justify running through the sprinklers. Although the winter isn’t all bad I already miss the summer.

Schmidt Family

August 13, 2009

Wow life has gotten busy. I feel like my blog has been so slow lately, and its not from a lack of content. Here is a family session I did a few weeks ago. It was a fun session and I’ll never forget how the mom got the youngest child to smile. She gave him her chapstick and said, “Throw it at mommy”. His eyes would light up and the he would chuck it as hard as he could and bust up laughing. Unconventional but apparently very affective.

St. Geezy

June 5, 2009

For memorial weekend we decided to join up with a group of our neighbors that were heading down to St. George. We had a lot of fun Hanging out by the pool, and stuffing our faces. After spending the weekend with us, everyone now has an idea how crazy and different from each other our kids are. Ethan is just a ball of energy that never runs out. Ada is a happy quiet baby that is content just hanging out eating grass. One day while sitting by the playground watching the kids throw sand in each others eyes, Ethan decided to follow a girl with a soccer ball back to her condo. I started to follow him when we saw him go around the corner. I got up and chased after him. When I finally caught up to him he was two flights of stairs away on the third floor banging on their door yelling HELLO! Next trip we decided is going to have to be an adults only trip. Thanks again everyone for letting us crash the party.

Ethan’s buddy drew is so cute and fun. He really didn’t like being disturbed while he was really enjoying his ice cream cone.

Worth the wait

May 15, 2009

Here are few more pictures of my niece Rian. When it comes to taking photos, she needs a little bit of time to warm up. After walking around a little bit and playing with my son she was ready to go. Rian has more sass than most girls I know, but I think when your this cute it comes with the territory.

Happy Mothers Day

May 10, 2009

Happy Mothers Day to all you mothers out there. I have a wonderful collection of awesome mothers in my life. My mom is an amazing woman. She has always made it clear to me that she loves me and that she would do anything for me. Mom I love you. My mother in-law is also very special to me. She is so supportive and sincere with her love for her children. (Especially her favorite son in-law)

My wife is a awesome mother to our children. Everyday she seems overwhelmed with the amount of love she has for each one of our children. I hope they all have a great day, and know that I love them dearly.

Funny story, I won’t even be able to be with these amazing women on their day, because I am going to a photography workshop. And if you don’t think that is selfish enough. The very next day is my wife’s birthday and I will be gone for that too. I’m not sure how I am going to make it up to her, but I’ll come up with something.  Taryn I love you. 

I know no one will read this post unless there is a picture attached, so here is a cool mini session I did with my buddy Jordan and his son. I think they turned out a great. Yes they are a little cheesy but you women love cheesy right?

Contact me for more info on my mini sessions. These are great for small gifts or quick creative shots.

This little guy is so cute and just so interested in what was going on that he refused to take a nap. The picture that might look like he fell asleep in his dads arms, is actually him about to sneeze. As you can see he is adorable, and its sessions like this, that are going to kill my wife, because they make her so baby hungry. Thanks again Kade and Elisa for this fun session.

Lord Family

April 30, 2009

Nate and Lauren have been good friends of ours for years. So it was a pleasure to hang out with them on a beautiful spring day, and take a few pictures of them and their kids. Their oldest child would sit and let me take pictures for a couple minutes then needed a break to literally frolic in the trees and grass. It was a lot of fun, and thanks again for asking me to take your picture.

Richardson Kids

April 8, 2009

The sun was finally shining. The wind stopped blowing. It was a great day to get out and take some pictures. I needed to find a place that wasn’t crowded. Luckily there was a farm near by that has so many great places to take pictures. These kids were a lot of fun to work with, full of personality and energy.

You might wonder Why I chose this group picture to show, since the little boy has his hand in front of his face. I felt like it showed off his dramatic personality.

Sweet Pea

March 26, 2009

My little Sweet Pea can finally sit up on her own. I’ve been excited for this day to come so that I could practice some new ideas on her. I decided to take advantage of this, by setting up a back drop while my wife dressed my little girl in pearls. Sadly setting up the back drop and getting her dressed took too long and she was ready to go to bed. We were able to get a bunch of cute pics but it was a bit harder to get her to smile.
