Drake Family | Utah County Family Photographer

27 October 2011

What a fun session we had, and the Drakes are such a beautiful family!  Siblings Maya and Bridger were so great for the session and it was fun to see them interact (and P.S. I seriously love their names!!).  I love capturing the relationship between parents too and I love the shots I got of Kristin and Scott.

It's funny, I was going to just take them to my favorite "blue wall" spot and I was driving down the road the day before just to check out the lighting and happened to see the most incredible fall colors scene I have ever seen. I think I saw that set of trees from a mile away. The Drakes were so easygoing and were up for anything, so they were great about getting their kids out of the car twice for this session.  I'm so glad- the images were worth it (and wahoo for spontaneous last-minute locations!). :) There's nothing I love more than beautiful backlit images in the fall... Tangent aside, enjoy my favorite shots from their session!

Summit | Springville, Utah Newborn Photographer

18 October 2011

Meet 5-day-old Summit!  I absolutely love his name.  I love that soft, peach fuzz hair of his and I love those squishy cheeks!  What an honor to capture him during this fleeting and magical time.  He was so good for his session and I could have shared like 20 more shots!  His proud big sister jumped in for a few too.  I had to throw in a "monster" hat shot since, after all, it's Halloween season.  :)  Without further ado... enjoy little Summit!

Ezra & Jack | Pleasant Grove, Utah Child Photographer

10 October 2011

It's so fun to photograph the Acosta family and especially these boys!  It has been a blast getting to know these guys over the past year or so and I feel like we are old friends.  I was so excited when they asked me to photograph Ezra and Jack, and celebrate Ezra turning one with a little cake smash!  It's so hard to believe a year has really gone by since I photographed Ezra as a newborn!  And I get to enjoy baby boy #3 in a newborn session in just a couple months.  I'm so lucky and honored to be a part of capturing this family's memories!  Enjoy these photos of such cute little boys.

Okay, if you've followed my blog for at least a little while and have seen any of the Acosta's past sessions... you might recognize this trademark Jack facial expression!! I love it!

Happy birthday, Ezra.  May you celebrate many more wonderful birthdays to come!  Thanks, Jason and Heather, for letting me be a part of his one and only first birthday.
