I have absolutely loved working with the Peterson family and it was such a treat to be able to photograph their extended family session again this year down in Southern Utah at the beautiful Snow Canyon state park! Last year we took their family photos in a huge green field so it was really fun to switch everything up entirely!

I remember when I had my baby girl just a little over a year ago, I had the hardest time deciding between doing birth photography or a fresh 48 session. A session where the photographer comes in to photograph a piece of those first two days as a family. But after lots of thinking and praying…

Last week I was able to give the sweetest little family a gift. The gift of preserving memories, love, childhood joy, and family. Unlike most families, the Holbrooks never know just how long they have with these beautiful children…

You know that moment when you’re smiling so big and your heart is loving so much, and just when you think the moment couldn’t make you feel anything more or greater, it takes you by surprise and it’s almost as if you’re going to explode with all the happiness in the world?? That’s what it feels like to…

The leaves crunching beneath our feet, the golden light streaming through the trees, the soft whisper of the water trickling down the stream… it was all just perfect. This little trail was the perfect spot for the Orton’s fall family session. The only thing that could have made this otherwise perfect session better…

There wasn’t supposed to be snow, but if you’ve ever lived in Utah, you know that the weather just does what it wants! So our beautiful family fall mini sessions turned into a beautiful family winter mini session! I guess that’s great for Christmas cards though! Really though, you can’t…

If you are having a baby soon, PLEASE reach out to me!!! I have a special going on right now for newborn photography at a serious discount! But mostly I just want to come and steal all the baby snuggles I can get in!! These little ones are so precious and so tiny…

This little patch of paradise is very quickly becoming my most favorite place to photograph couples and families. It’s tucked away in the foothills of the Wasatch Mountains in Layton, Utah along Highway 89 and features the most beautiful meadow and little lake. It was the perfect location for the Stromberg’s little family photography session…

GET TO KNOW ME

I strive to capture photographs that feel authentically you–and they should be more than an everyday snapshot. Being photographed can be a dance between who you are and the dressed-up version of who you want to be. As a mama of four littles and a bride before that, I’ve been in your shoes before. Here’s my question to you:
