W Family at Provo Temple

Phew!  It's been too long since I've posted sessions!  Alas, here's a wonderful family to begin with!  I took pictures for their first sealing at the Mt. Timpanogas Temple to Aida and about a year later here we are again with her sweet baby brother that they adopted!

Such a beautiful family!

It was FREEZING, but the sky was wonderful!

Sorry about the watermark right in the middle, but the news story about the family whose picture was in a frame at Ikea has me shook!

Poor mom!  Miss Aida had different ideas about the day.  They didn't include photos.  Just keep moving and you'll get a shot!



Nevermind the drinking fountain next to the bench that had to be photoshopped.  Who puts a drinking fountain near a photo op at the temple?!

My camera wouldn't focus and I couldn't figure out why because Talmage isn't crawling yet.  He seemed to be still.  I came around the veiwfinder to see his little chin quivering in the cold. 

Didn't make a sound.  Just sat shivering!  Poor little man.  This was our last shot of the day.

Baptism Shots

Her baptism is on Saturday and her mom wanted some special pictures for keepsakes and for her announcement and program.

*on a side note*It is my duty...nay, my obligation

as a mother to embarass my son.

I did this mini-session for a former colleague from the Montessori school we taught at and our kids attended.

My Isaac just thought this little miss was the cat's meow. He still blushes when we tease him about her.

I got my hard drive out.

  Plugged it in to my laptop. 

It works again. 

These pics are just aged to perfection.

Stunning Miss Erika and the henna party....

Vibrant colors and sparkle everywhere~  The bride had her henna design finished when she arrived under a

gorgeous canopy carried by her bridesmaids.

She's showered with rose petals

Women in her family feed her sweets

Incredible, intricate designs are applied to party-goers

But none as beautiful as the bride's

Busy, Busy, Busy!

It's been a summer whirlwind of photos and I've finally reached the point where I can't pause to dedicate blog entries to each session (oh but I will!), so heres a preview of what I'll be working on until sometime next winter...actually next week.

Double Wide

I'm not referring to their youtube.com video with my be-hind front and center either.  That's their name.

Had the pleasure of taking photos at Romney Stadium for these headliners.  Check them out on Facebook to keep up with their scheduled performances!
