I have been so lucky to work with the gorgeous Necaise family since almost the very beginning of my photography career! Melissa and Ricky have the sweetest family and are always so fun to work with! For this years session we decided to shoot at Lambert Park in Alpine. Its one of my favorite locations because its gorgeous year round and is super easy to get to. On this day we had tornado style winds and crazy storms all afternoon and we almost decided to postpone our shoot but decided to try and make it work, we were SO pleasantly surprised when we showed up to this spot and it was calm and overcast and perfect!

Imagine your dream photo location. Is it full of flowers? Does it have a lake or mountains in the distance? I absolutely love working with clients who have a vision for their sessions because it becomes a game for me to try and find them that ideal spot for their photos. Bria had dreams of a gorgeous meadow for her engagement session and I feel pretty confident that Big Springs Park delivered big time.

Brock and Colton are buddies and graduating seniors who asked me to shoot their senior baseball session at Herriman High school and to include some photos of their on the field they love so much! As you can imagine I was overjoyed to be able to work with them!

Seniors are my favorite…

These boys have such a great energy about them, they were so fun and easy going to work with. I love getting to celebrate seniors and hear about future hopes they have and when you combine that with getting to get creative with fun posing and sports I’m in heaven. Senior baseball sessions are my JAM! You can check out another session I did a few years ago for Payson, Here!

Before we jumped into these fun baseball photos though we headed to the front of the school and got some gorgeous lighting and backdrops for some regular senior photos!

I have been wanting to photograph bridals at Little Sahara Sand Dunes for a long time now. Naturally, I was so very excited when Ciara asked me to capture her bridals there this spring. Ciara has babysat for me for a number of years so I have had the pleasure of getting to know her, to know her is to love her.

Ciara and Cruz met and fall hard and fast for each other. They have enjoyed getting to know each other and traveling together, even getting engaged on the North Shore in Hawaii last may! They are so clearly in love and it was such a pleasure working with them! Please enjoy this lovey, sandy session

Its been on my list to shoot at Big Springs Park in Provo Canyon for a long while now and I’m not sure why I waited so long to shoot there! My husband grew up with Emilee and her cute family. Their families spent a lot of time together over the years and so it was only natural as I met and married my husband I got to know their family as well. To know Emilee is to love her! She is full of light and love and her little family is just the cutest. I was ecstatic when she asked me to take their family pictures last fall and even more excited to get to meet their cute daughter!

Drew is the sweetest little toddler on the block but I made her just a little nervous. This is totally normal for that age range and I thought I would share some tips on how I handle situations with nervous little ones!

TIPS FOR SHOOTING WITH TODDLERS

1. Bring bribes. I encourage all parents to bring small clean candies, like smarties, to encourage best smiles, keep kids interested and bring a game component into the session.
2. Be patient. I promise I will make sure I have incredible photos for you before I am done. It helps so much when parents are able to shrug it off when things aren’t going how they imagine they should.
3. Plan your session around naps and try to make sure they have eaten and gotten good sleep before our session.
4. When kiddos are really not having it, I try to really focus on candids. I will play games with them and capture them as they are. Sometimes these photos are the most loved and precious over the years.

I cant wait to tell you all about our girls weekend in Saint George, I was raised in a family that loved to travel. My mom is steadily making her way around the world and lives for traveling, whether its near or far she is always up for an adventure. A few years ago my cute mom starting putting together girls trips to keep me, her and my sister in law close and to be able to create some incredible memories together.

So our Girls Trips began…

For our first trip we visited San Diego and stayed on Coronado Island. It was so fun to ride bikes all over, eat all the yummy food and enjoy that California weather. We visited Waco Texas for our next trip. We saw all things Magnolia and of course visited Buccees. Saint Thomas was next on the list and we had a total blast, we jewelry shopped, island hopped and had fun in the sun. Last year we visited South Carolina, we stayed in Charleston we got to tour the gorgeous gardens and historical homes before we headed south to Beaufort, Hilton head island and finally ended our trip in Savannah, Georgia.

Fast forward to this year…

We decided to visit more of our own beautiful state so we booked a stay at Red Mountain Resort, at the base of Snow Canyon. This girls weekend in Saint George and the resort were so much fun, they offer all sorts of fitness classes, meditations, yoga and stretching classes and excursions out to all of the gorgeous surrounding parks. My mom had one request for the week, she wanted me to bring my camera and do a photoshoot in Snow Canyon, I think we nailed it!
