"Trash the Dress" in St. George!

Rock climbing bride!



She had lots of fun hiking around in a wedding dress!

They were getting cat-calls from a passing car of guys shouting, "Kiss her! Kiss her!"










My sister was such a sport to model for me (twice during the vacation!), and let me have fun with photographing in this new location. She's been married for over 2 years, but still makes a very beautiful bride! Randy was awesome to model too! I think they secretly had lots of fun acting like newly weds again :)

Here is what I call a "Trash the Dress" photo session. The dress doesn't really get "trashed," but I'm sure it's in need of a dry cleaning. What we do for beautiful pictures . . .

This is the more 'artsy' side of my photography, and I kinda like the feel of the pictures. Unfortunately, the location is in St. George so it's not as close of a drive as I wish it were (or else I'd probably use it a lot).

Enjoy the pictures! I had lots of fun taking them!

Family H in St. George


Comforting a very tired little girl






If you look closely, she's about to throw the rock at them.

Now she's coming to show me the rock

The end of a very long day



I loved doing my sister's family! They are so cute, and we had so much fun in St. George with them! The red cliffs hold special memories for my whole family. It is one of our favorite places to go for our vacation. Great hiking, and great pictures!!

Jayden & Jessy Wedding




















I love spring! I also love that on Temple Square, they have already planted tons of beautiful flowers! Jayden & Jessy got married on a very bright, sunny day. They are so in love and were fun to work with. I wish them all the best!

Double Graduation






Well my sister and brother-in-law graduated! They also brought Katie Marie up to graduate. I loved her little graduation outfit! So cute! They are great examples to me about determination. I look up to both of them in so many ways! It was so fun to be there with them this past weekend.

The Dog Beau


Haha, this picture makes me laugh!!!

A dog's version of tug-a-war . . .


. . . yeah he wins!

Beautiful sky that evening!


Well I have to say that it was my coldest photo shoot so far, even though you wouldn't be able to tell from the pictures. Yes, a beautiful clear sky, but windy and COLD!!! Britt and I both had numb fingers by the end of it all! Britt wanted to get pictures of her puppy because he is turning 1! He was definitely the most active model I have had yet :) But we had fun, despite the cold. So I guess I can say I now do dog pictures too!

Baby Toree


Yep I can't sleep right now . . . probably because I just finished a newborn session and I can't get the pictures out of my head so I can sleep . . . so I just decided to hurry and post my favs of this session! By the way . . . I LOVE doing newborn sessions! Newborns are so sweet and peaceful.
Baby Toree was such a good baby! She slept really good for me at the beginning, and let me put her in all sorts of fun positions! Then she woke up in the middle, so we got some pictures of her beautiful eyes. She is 12 days old here, so tiny! I guess any baby seems tiny to me right now because Caleb is just growing so big!
Hopefully Toree's parents will LOVE the pictures!

We caught the smile just in time!


Gotta love that cute bow! Of course it's almost as big as her head! I loved it though!
