Utah has so many great outdoor locations, and when this family requested the Great Salt Lake I couldn’t wait to go! It’s a spot that works year round. Sunset on the lake & a sweet family excited for their session… just gorgeous.

I love the mountains & forest so much, and when I find the perfect spot for a session, I am so excited to show it to my clients! This was a fun Fall night with one of my favorite repeat clients – I’ve been photographing them since before this little guy was born. Love seeing their smiles year after year!

Take me back to Summer and those warm endless days in the mountains…

I love getting to hang out with this cute family each year for their portraits! Thank you Lo family for such a fun session!

My clients become like a big extended family to me! I love to see how their children are growing. It’s fun to see that they remember you year after year & can’t wait to tell you all about their lost tooth, or school, and their little sister. I love my job!

Thank you so much for hiring me to be your family photographer!

I love to see families year after year, and meet their new babies! I’ve been photographing this family since their oldest was a toddler, and I am so grateful to be their family photographer!
