Jensen Fall Family Photos

Mother nature is showing off one last time before the cold and dreary winter comes (which I'm really looking forward to -- SNOW!!). 

We drove up to Millcreek Canyon yesterday with the Jensen family to take advantage of the fall foliage and snap some family photos. I'm pretty pleased with the outcome. 

Take a peek!

Ziggy's Newborn Photoshoot

This precious babe is only a few days old and the sweetest newborn! I mean, look at his HAIR!

His new parents were so adorable with him during the entire shoot. I just love that new baby scent :)

Petersen/Gonzales Family Photoshoot

Moving back to Utah means catching up with old friends and meeting their families! Last night I got to spend some time with this gorgeous family. I've known Misty since middle school and it was so much fun to see her kiddos and capture their sassy personalities.

Greenberg Family Photoshoot

I've known the Greenberg family since their girls and I were in high school together. We lived around the corner from each other, attended Girl's Camp and loads of hilariously fun Young Women's activities together throughout the years. It was so much fun to see them as a family unit, meet all the grandbabies and laugh as much as we have always done in the years past.

Browne Family Photoshoot

This weekend I had the pleasure of photographing a family that my family has known since their twins were babies. It was so much fun to catch up and make memories for this beautiful family!

{I finally got to meet this cute little stinker! He is definitely center of attention in his family. How couldn't he be, though? Look how cute he is!}

Ho Family Photoshoot

Today I had the pleasure of photographing an old friend's family (and finally meeting her gorgeous littles!) at the beautiful International Peace Gardens in Salt Lake City. Em and Johnny have the most darling little ladies. I had so much fun chasing around their spunky 3 year old and making silly faces and noises at their 9 month old. 

Here's a peek at their photoshoot from this morning:

Emmy's Blessing Day

We're in Utah! Part of being here for the summer is enjoying the mountains, seeing all of the beautiful temples in the Salt Lake valley (and the surrounding area), eating all the yummy food (FRY SAUCE!!) and catching up with some of my favorite people. 

One of my favorite people in the whole world gave birth to a beautiful baby girl about 7 weeks ago. I was honored to snap some last minute photos of Emmy and her family. 

Here's a sneak peek at a handful of photos from today:

Olivia's Newborn Photoshoot

It had been 11 days since I'd seen this little family. Not much has changed from the outside, but on the inside, some incredible things have happened. The moment you walk into their home you're greeted by a tired mama who apologizes for her appearance followed by a very excitable pup. Bella is their first baby and she loves the attention. After assuring the sleep-deprived mama that she has never looked more beautiful (which is the honest truth) and waving hello to a working daddy, you peek around the corner to find a content little bundle, gliding away in her rocker. She is the center of this happy couple's universe now. Her presence is made known everywhere. The diapers, the hand sanitizer, the burp cloths and the color pink. Oh, the pink! It's in every nook and cranny. After spending a few hours with this family, I was able to capture a glimpse of their own brand of heaven. 

{Official family photo. There were others with Bella making herself front and center, but really this is more fitting, especially making sure Olivia is where she's supposed to be.} 

{Sweetest little eyelashes}

{And the chandelier? Gorgeous}
