As a mother of four, I know how important it is to preserve each special moment in life. Those special moments pass by us too quickly. Motherhood has inspired me to capture those precious family moments. Fun, thoughtful, peaceful moments that fill each of our lives. I know how important is to preserve each special moment in life. My photos are casual and candid. I strive for the personalities of each individual to shine through. When my boys were tiny, so many of their sweet expressions and funny faces were never recorded on film and have since been forgotten through the years.

This is why I started doing photography-to help others preserve these moments in their lives.

The M's

This family was so much fun to take photos of! They had originally had another photographer take photos for their Christmas card, but they felt he didn't do a very good job. So, they asked me last minute to do their photos. I was honored! They even got matching outfits for the dog and their 4 month old baby. SO CUTE!!! Thanks for the fun time! I can't wait to do it again!








This mom should be a model! She is gorgeous!








I am in love with the nursery. It made me want to have another baby!







This is a storyboard I did for them. I love the photo of the mom kissing her sweet baby's head in the bottom corner. Thanks again for the fun time!

Adorable Kiddos!

These are my dear friends' children. They are SO cute! We had a ball taking their photos a few weeks ago. They were so good.








Little Miss "S" has the most beautiful brown eyes I have ever seen. She loved getting her photo taken.




Mister "X" (his name really does start with X) was so sweet. He is one of the cutest babies I have ever seen.





I loved watching their relationship together. They sure have fun together!









He didn't quite know what to think of his shoes. It was so fun watching him try to walk in them!

Last Year's Photo

I was going through some old photos of my kids and I came across this one. I just had to share it because I love it! I don't remember taking it, but it was taken last November.

Family photos


I know it has been a while since I have posted my photography. I have taken photos, but been really busy. I took these photos a few weeks ago and had to post them. I have other photos I have taken in the last few months that I will post in the next few weeks, so keep watching!
This one is one of my favorite photos I have taken. We almost missed the sunset, but got it right in time!



The youngest was so much fun to take photos of!



"J" just turned the magical age of 8. We did these photos of him with his scriptures, and some photos by the temple for his wall.



i love the way this one of the older son turned out!



This is the oldest girl. She is in Young Women's and loving it.

New Baby!!!

This newborn was SO adorable! He just slept and slept while I was there. His expressions were so sweet! Thanks so much for letting me come take pictures of the two of you!




Sweet tiny fingers....




I love this one of his head in his mom's hands...








There is nothing more beautiful in the world than a sleeping baby!





I took 9 of my favorites and made them into a 12x12 storyboard. This is something I do for new babies. I try to capture all the tiny parts of their bodies.


He was so much fun to take photos of! Thanks again for letting me come!

Senior Photos

This is "M's" senior photos. We had so much fun doing this photo shoot. The lighting was perfect, it was a great day for photos, and everything worked in our favor. She was so fun to work with! We took these by an old train station. There were some alley's nearby, where we took some of the photos. The photo with the chair is one of my favorite. We were walking by an alley way, and the chair happened to be sitting there. Almost like it was waiting for us to use it in these photos!




I designed the announcement, too. Her name was along the bottom, and the right had side had the graduation information, but I took them off for privacy reasons. She said that everyone at school was jealous of her photos! It made me very happy!
