I have seen lots of cute babies over the years but this one may just take the cake. At under 7 pounds, he had a surprising amount of those wonderful newborn rolls that I love so much:) And he was such a great little model- perfectly sleepy and mold-able Can you say adorable? 
But after over an hour of poking and prodding, here is retribution… Cheers to dad for being such a great sport:)
I have to preface this post by apologizing for my terrible lack of posting on my blog this past year. Not that I have ever been a very dedicated blogger, but it seems that my negligence has become even more severe since my move out to Utah. Hopefully this post will help get me back on the blog wagon.
I wanted to post some photos I took recently of an adorable baby girl. She was such a perfect little subject for me- hardly a peep out of her the entire time. Sweet and sleepy, just how I love them:) Ahhhh, makes me miss those cuddly days… Enjoy!
More to come, including another LATE baby post and a sneak peek of a beautiful wedding I photographed last weekend!
I recently had the chance to photograph this sweet family who are also good friends of ours. I have photographed all three of their babies as newborns and after watching them grow up in person and from behind the lens of my camera over the past 5 years I can say with certainty that these three girls have got to be three of the cutest girls in existence:) But with such kind and good looking parents, it is no surprise:) Thanks for making the trip out to Stansbury, Dahle’s, and being my muses for the evening! It was a blast!
It has been less than a week since I got back from my amazing trip in VA, and today is the first time that I feel like my high from the trip and missing my kids has worn off- my first day back to reality so to speak. Does anyone want to guess what you get when you add an early weekend Halloween trunk or treat + two kids that are home from school and running on little sleep? Every year all that candy that makes my kids act wild and that I myself can’t stay away from reminds me that I hate Halloween. Or maybe I should say I hate Halloween candy, because the costumes and decorations I love. I sometimes wish I was one of those parents that only allowed their kids to eat apple slices for Halloween, but I just don’t have it in me to deny my kids that ridiculous week long, pillow-case-full-of-candy sugar high that made up some of my fondest childhood memories. And I feel like I would be punishing my kids for my lack of self control and patience (as I sit here typing with a side-ache that no doubt came from that 450 piece bag of Tootsie Rolls that I have dipped into all day long). Yuck. And the official day is not even here yet- Yikes! Heaven help all of us parents make it through this next week…
Enough of my rant- on to something positive! My trip to VA was amazing- it was such a blast to meet up with so many of the wonderful families that I have gotten to know over the past several years. And everyone’s children just get cuter with age:) I will post a mass sneak peek in the next few days, but for now I wanted to mention a special I have this upcoming holiday season- Christmas Mini Books! Many of you may be familiar with these popular little albums, but this year I am offering some new updated designs. They make the perfect gift for Nana or Uncle Mark:) Here are the details:

I am so excited to post this special introduction: Meet Baby Rylan, my ADORABLE new baby nephew! Seriously, have you ever seen such a cute baby boy? And that is coming from a mom of three boys(don’t tell them I said that!)! I am partly kidding- I will call it a tie on principle It seems criminal to me that of all the newborns I have photographed over the years this was the first time I have been able to photograph one of my nephews as a newborn. One of the major perks to living back in Utah near my sisters:) Rylan was born a few weeks early, weighing in at just under 6 lbs, so he was such a perfect muse for me- I love tiny babies:) And I admit that I went a little overboard- I am sure after the dozenth backdrop/prop change Angie was thinking I was crazy! She is not going to know what to do with all the photos we got:) So here are a few of my favorites, shot in my backyard, call this part one of about 14… Enjoy and check back soon!
