A Preview & Announcement

Shaylee-July-1

I have had a lot of people ask me if I offer a package for "My Baby's First Year." I have never set up a package like this before but I am excited to announce that I am working on one!

This package would include a newborn session, 3 month photos, 6 month photos, and one year photos. It will include bulk discounts based on four sessions. A maternity session may also be included or substituted. Please e-mail me if you are interested in more information about this package (for some reason my blog won't allow anyone to comment at this time).

AND....Since I am SO SICK of this blog, I am currently in the process of designing a new one! I can't wait to say goodbye to this boring blog!

Happy Friday Everyone! Now back to editing...

Miller Family and Update

Cara-Miller-Family-1

I am currently editing TONS of sessions that I photographed this weekend! I am so excited to show you some of my recent sessions later this weekend! I am starting to fill sessions for August and September at this time. Please contact me through e-mail if you are interested in scheduling a session. August is almost full!

Happy Monday

Today was quite the adventure! I hiked up the mountain with my camera, stood in freezing cold water, and enjoyed taking a groomal session of this cute couple! I have been trying to fix the quality of the photo for about two hours now and I am not sure why it looks so grainy on the blog. It doesn't look like that on my computer. Any suggestions why?

Here is just a fun photo to keep you on your toes about what's up next...

Again, I am not sure why these photos look so grainy, but this is one of my favorite shoe photos! I love shoes and I wish I was the proud owner of these ones...
Megan-Vance-Bridals-3
I LOVE the look of her cute new shoes next to the old, muddy boots at one of the locations we were at...

Amanda

Ballerina-9
I have just started to edit these pictures of my cousin. I feel bad because my family always gets put on the back burner when it comes to getting their pictures edited. Someday I will get everyone in my family their pictures. My sister said today, "Do you have my wedding pictures yet?" I am sure you can guess what my answer was....

Someday my family will get all their pictures. Someday I will be caught up. Someday maybe I will be able to edit and post photos of my own kiddos. I guess I should say I am not complaining. I am so excited for all the sessions I have been having. I am thrilled that I have been able to expand my business. I love taking pictures and I love what I do!

this week...

Megan-&-Jon-E-Session-4
I have been an editing machine and it's only going to get worse. This weekend I have scheduled three family sessions, a bridal session, and a child session. Add in family time, the famous Ute Stampede Rodeo, and a family reunion at Lagoon and you can see I am going to be overwhelmed again trying to catch up!
Megan-&-Jon-E-Session-2

I am now starting to schedule sessions for August & September. Please e-mail me if you are interested in getting photos taken anytime during those months. My husband is going to be starting school again in August and so my time will be limited.

Thanks for all the support! I never imagined I would be THIS busy! It's been a dream and a dream I am happy to be living!

Happy Monday

Almost done with this session...
Mel-2

Today is Monday and I am feeling like a million bucks! I am extremely tired but I am working through it! I have got SO MANY things accomplished today and I have to just keep telling myself to keep going! I worked last night (again) and I decided to stay up and clean my house, edit pictures, and organize my office.

Saturday I enjoyed photographing a well deserved family who won a photography session off Becky Higgin's blog! This family has three beautiful children and one of them is autistic. Being a nurse and a mother, I can understand how hard it is to raise children and I can only imagine how hard it would be to have an autistic child. I went home feeling so happy and so fulfilled. There's just something about a special needs child that melts my heart!

Look for those pictures hopefully tomorrow!

P.S. If you have left me a comment and it has not shown up on my blog, please e-mail me. I have had several people tell me they have tried to leave a comment and were unable to. Thanks!

I am getting there...

Little-Family-41

They're done! They're FINALLY DONE Kristy! Oh my goodness have I been editing pictures for HOURS today! I worked last night at the hospital, came home, found out I had a scorpion crawling around in my bathroom, went to sleep for two hours, woke up, and have been basically editing pictures ever since.

I think this family has officially waited the longest out of anyone to get their pictures! I said this weekend I would get caught up and I plan to do just that. Enjoy some more photos guys!

Again, I can't believe how swamped I am with editing photos! I had a chance to edit these quick photos yesterday on my husband's laptop while we enjoyed spending one last day with Colby's brother before he leaves to serve the Lord. Yes, that's how far behind I am on editing. You know you're busy when you edit photos at a family party. Oh how I wish there was more time in a day.

Now it's off to Toy Story 3 with my three favorite boys to celebrate Trevin's 3rd birthday! That's a lot of "three's" in one sentence!

What I've Been Up to

Kloie-1
This weekend was full of family pictures. My brother-in-law Jordan leaves to serve an LDS Mission in Africa next week and we decided we better get a family picture before he left. Thanks to my dad dancing behind the camera, a tripod, and a few little lies promising candy that I didn't have, we managed to get a fairly decent family picture...

(I realize it's a little hard to see but this is as big as I can load it on the blog)

I couldn't decide which edit I liked better of Colby's brother Josh and his cute family...

Don't you just LOVE little Reese's hands over her face? Too Cute!

My Bucket List for Photography

Amanda-1
I have a list of things I would LOVE to photograph in my life and a beautiful ballerina was one of them. Today, I got the wonderful opportunity to photograph my cousin Amanda. She was so willing to let me photograph her and I appreciate her allowing me to do this. I was completely excited for this day to come and I have only looked at this one photo so far! More to come. I promise you won't be disappointed!
