I am so excited to photograph their new baby this Fall!

Maternity Session

This sweet couple is so excited to meet their baby, and their home was the perfect place for a session – I love their style! Pregnancy and the anticipation of a newborn is such a fun time to celebrate with a portrait session!

This little darling was so sweet during his portrait session! It is always so fun to see families snuggle their newborns and I love to capture those new memories.

Utah Spring family portraits – Utah State Capitol

This darling celebrated her one year birthday with a portrait session in the beautiful spring blooms at the Utah State Capitol. Her sessions started with her mother’s maternity session, and with my Ultimate Baby’s First Year package, I got to see this cutie every 3 months or so to catch all of her precious milestones up to her 1st birthday. I am so happy that this family has all of these session photos to look back on… it is amazing how much they grow in one year!

Happy Birthday baby A!

This session was photographed at the beautiful Clubhouse SLC which is available for event rental. It is an amazing historical building (1913) that was the SLC Ladies Literary Club. I love it… this little one did too!

Oh Baby!

A year ago this March, I was contacted by the sweetest couple from Tennessee to photograph their pregnancy announcement photos. They were married at Utah’s Canyons Ski Resort 3 years prior, and wanted to announce their pregnancy with images from the slopes as well.

We met for Paige & Garret’s photoshoot at Snowbasin Resort with perfect weather – sunshine and a mountain full of snow! They had printed up the cutest onesie’s with “Guess What?” and ” Best Day Ever” on them. I was able to borrow a toddler snowboard from the Lifthouse in Salt Lake City, along with the cutest little snowboard boots to use for props.

I had such a great time hanging out with these two on the mountain! They were so fun, easy to talk to, game for any ideas, and really excited to be new parents.

On the ski lift, Paige told me their story… they had been trying to build their family for a while now, and had gone through 3 miscarriages. This was their 4th pregnancy, things were going well, they’d made it past 10 weeks and were so excited.

Sadly, I heard from Paige shortly after their trip that they had miscarried once more. My heart just broke for them.

But guess what? They never lost their positive attitude and faith that someday… they would be parents. That struck me from the first time she had shared their struggle, and as sad as I felt for them I was equally amazed and inspired by their strength and positive attitude.

Fast forward one year…

I just received an email from Paige, AND THEY ARE PREGNANT!!!

You couldn’t peel the smile off of my face as I read that email! They are in their second trimester and are due in August 2017!

Still living their inspiring, positive attitudes, this is what Paige wrote… “I really don’t think I would change a thing about our story because it has strengthened my faith and truly enhanced my appreciation.” This couple is truly blessed, and not just with this new baby coming.

They are excited to share their joy with family & friends, and show their fun images!

I cannot wait to someday meet this little one on a future Utah trip to introduce that darling baby to Utah’s ski resorts! hint hint Paige & Garret 😉 come back out to UT anytime, I’ve got a huge hug waiting for all 3 of you!

Ok… now that you know the full story, please take a look at their images and see if your smile doesn’t reach your ears too!

Stay little … just a while longer

With a new baby on the way, this adorable family wanted to capture those last days of their daughter being an only child. It was so nice to be welcomed into their beautiful mountain home to photograph them in their own space … a family excited to grow.

The best way to end a portrait session is to take off on your sweet ride! Thank you for a fun session!!!
