~*Organized cHaOs*~

Everyone knows what I'm talking about when I say that taking family pictures is extremely stressful. You know, you want your kids to smile perfect, hold still, and get perfect pictures. We also know this is really hard to acheive-and we end up thinking, why did I put myself through this?! But in the end the pictures always turn out great somehow. This photoshoot was just that. I say this because I know exactly how it feels! Your kids have had it, it's freezing, attention spans are short, and patience is running thin. This family is so awesome! They went out in the freezing cold and wind to take family pictures. The kids did so good and look, after all the stress, the pictures turned out so cute! Thanks Em!! I had fun!!

This old truck was so great, it went so well with the colors they chose, the rust and the green paint. I LOVE old trucks!

This ones my fav. You can see each individual personality of the kids. How can you not love those cute faces?

I love Fall with all the changing leaves!

Classic kids picture. They were so done. But look how cute!

I won't say what I said to get this awesome smile out of the hubs, but believe me....it worked! :)

New cards

Hey all, just posted some new Christmas card designs. Head on over to my Christmas Card Post and check 'em out!!

love & admiration

You know you have it good in life when you have two of the best people in the world supporting you with every step you take. These two lovelies are two of my many heroes in life. Two people who I hold unconceivable amounts of love and admiration for. People who taught me many important things and raised me to be the person I am today. My parents are the best kind of "people" you can get. I'm so lucky to have them as my parents!!

I think the last time I remember them having a picture taken together was when I was about 8 years old. It's been a while!! We decided it was high time they updated that picture! Turned out cute eh? What to you think?

My Bug

This gorgeous thing is one of my prides and joys. My little Cambri bug. She is full of spit and vinegar and tons of sugar, because she is so sweet! I took her 2 year old pictures a couple weeks ago and she did so great! I just entered her in gap's casting call for a chance to win. If you think she should, go to gap.com/castingcall, type in her contestant id:65931022 and vote for her to become a fan favorite! :)

This is her being cute and sassy


Her innocent and sweet face


The many expressions made by this cute face!


Now is the time to get your pics done! Remember the Christmas Special going on right now! Hurry and schedule, slots are filling up fast!

So I have a fellow photographer friend that suggested we do a photo swap. She couldn't have been more genius! Everyone knows how hard it is to get your kids to smile and be good for pictures. It's even harder when you're a photographer and you need family pictures as well. And I have not had a decent family shot since we've been married. So we swapped photoshoots! She took my family pictures and pics of my two little cuties, and then I took pics of her intoxicatingly adorable little girl. And we'll do her family pictures soon.
CHRISTY does awesome work!! She gets my style and is very natural with her photography. Check out her blog for our family pics and many other great settings. Thanks Christy!! Love ya girl! I'm so ecstactic that you suggested this! Believe me, we will be doing this MANY more times!!
Here's a sneak peak of her big blue eyed beauty! She was so good. This little girl is only 16 mos. and she did amazingly well. She had so many cute facial expressions. And she would smile at just hearing the word "candy." So cute!

Tonight I ventured over to the beautiful Escalante to have some fun with this cute family. The tractor they had was just what I have been looking for and I LOVED it! Little Carson was my buddy.....we had fun teasing him about the cute girls in his kindergarten class, and he even held my hand walking from place to place. Uber cute family! Thanks guys, I had a blast. And tell grandma I owe her for stepping in as babysitter!
Grandparents....sweetest ever. They babysat my fussy baby while I shot pics. So so so so SO grateful!


We had the hardest time getting this handsome devil to smile, but look how cute that smile is?! I could just eat him up!

How hilarious is this picture!! Told you we had fun!


Fun fun night! Again, thanks!
And remember to all you out there, the family special is on right now, remember to book your appointments before it gets too fffffffreezin' cold!
