Storts Family

Meet the Storts Family. :)
They are friends from our new ward and their kids are simply adorable! Such a sweet family.

Sweet Sisters

While our family vacationed in Iowa with our friends, the Larsons, I took some photos of their cute girls. I've photographed their family several times now, and loved being able to do it again! 
We sure miss this family.

Goates Family

This is my brother's sweet family. Ever since moving here to Ohio, I have been looking forward to doing a photo shoot with them. I'm grateful they trusted me with doing it! :) The lighting and location were beautiful and we were able to capture some great shots.

Petersen Family

Meet the Petersens! I had such a good time photographing them and the location was beyond beautiful. Each person in their family has so much personality and I tried to catch a glimpse of that, especially in their single shots. 
Here's a confession for you: Posing a family of 7 "just right" can be tough. But during this session I learned a valuable lesson: Let them pose themselves too! The few times I did that, I could feel the ease in their positions and the real smiles came out without much coaxing on my part. All I had to do was be ready to catch those natural and REAL family moments.
Thank you for letting me spend time with your family!
This is one of my sweet Beehives. Isn't she beautiful?
And I have now claimed this handsome devil as my future son-in-law...
In the boys' picture below, I had them throw rocks into the water at the same time. Then I said "Look over here and smile" and just a moment later they gave me those poses. So awesome.
I'm in love with these sibling pictures...

The Edwards Family

This is a sweet family I know from Salt Lake. Don't they have the most adorable little girls? We had perfect lighting that evening and I personally enjoyed finding fun backdrops around Wheeler Farm. I especially love the "sister" photos we got. So precious!



Tori Turner - Senior Photos

Meet my sister in law. :) Isn't she beautiful? Before Tori graduated from high school, I was lucky enough to take her senior photos at one of my favorite locations: Lake Las Vegas. I had a great time doing this shoot and I loved the pop of color against the rocky backdrops.

The Larson Family

I adore and miss this family so much! I was able to photograph the Larsons a few different times while we lived in Henderson. They're all so photogenic and this is one of my very favorite locations. All in all, we got a lot of great shots!






The Birkeland Family

This was by far one of my very favorite sessions! ... Is it bad to have a favorite?... This little sweetheart was such a happy baby and so full of joy. The location (Memory Grove) is also one of my favorite spots, so overall it was a perfect evening with the Birkeland Family.
