Rylan just turned 4 years old!  And if there is one thing that I learned about 4 year olds from this session is that they like to look everywhere but at the camera!  But we had fun, and ended up with some great shots.

Happy birthday Rylan!!  Don’t forget to leave comments – 25 comments or more means a free 8×10 for Rylan!

This is the reason I love photographing seniors – they are so easy and natural in front of the camera!  Melani is gorgeous and we had a fun time together.  When we started out, it was so windy that we didn’t know if we’d be able to continue.  But luckily, after a location change, the wind was manageable and we were able to get some great pictures.

If you are a 2010 senior and you haven’t had your senior pictures taken yet, it’s not too late!  And if you will be graduation in 2011, I’m looking for Senior Representatives.  It’s a great way to get a free photoshoot and earn some great things along the way.  Contact me for more information!

25 comments and Melani gets a free 8×10 – so give Melani some comments!

You might recognize this little beauty from her newborn photos not too long ago.  I am so happy that I’m going to be able to take her pictures through her first year of life!  I’m always amazed at how fast babies grow and change in their first year.  Lily was so fun to photograph, and now I can’t wait until she turns 6 months so I get to take some more!

25 comments gets Lily a free 8×10, so comment away!Lily1 Utah Child PhotographerLily4 Utah Child PhotographerLily2 Utah Child Photographer

I posted Abbi’s official 1 year photos already, but I couldn’t skip over her cake smash session!  She is such a good eater that I thought she’d just dive into her cake, but she was very cautious.  I should have assumed she wouldn’t jump in because she is all girl and hates to have messy hands.  But she did enjoy eating the cake, and now every time she sees cake, she wants some!

This family is what I would call a photographer’s dream to photograph.  Super cute, easy going, and so happy!  The biggest thing I was drawn to as I was going through their photos were the real, genuine smiles and the laughing faces.  I think that’s when you really capture someone’s personality, and those are always my favorite kinds of photos!

Brent, Lacey and Jace won this photo session as a giveaway I did on my Facebook page.  Which means that if you aren’t a fan, you need to become one right away!  We’ll be doing more giveaways soon!

Comment away – 25 comments gets a free 8×10 for this family!
