Sneak Peeks!!

Newborns and little girls in frilly skirts are soooo much fun! These two beautiful girls were absolute dolls to photograph. And they have a lot of vintage furniture which was so fun to use as part of the portraits too!! Enjoy the sneak peek!!!

Sneak Peek Time!

Here is a cute little guy that was so fun! He is a busy boy and loves to play with his toys. Enjoy!

Just another friendly reminder

The holidays are just around the corner and the deadline for orders in time for Christmas is only 3 and a half weeks away! Gosh, can you believe this year has gone by so quickly?!

Wedding Sneak Peek

I had the honor of photographing a beautiful vow renewal on Saturday. This couple is just so neat, fun, playful and beautiful! They have been married for 15 years already and just decided to start a new family tradition of renewing their marriage vows every 15 years. How neat is that?! Here's a few from the day, enjoy!!

Aren't the shoes fabulous?!

6 adults, 2 kids, 1 remote = my family

My mom has been wanting a new family portrait for SOOOOOOOOOO long now. My sister and her husband live out of the area and we're all so busy that it's been really hard to plan. But, this week my sister came to town and we finally made it happen. We went to the Boise Depot and I set up my camera with a tripod and infrared remote. Luckily, I'm proficient in Photoshop and was able to do some layer masking of two photos to get a portrait of everyone looking at the camera, lol! And the result ...

Now, I also had my family portraits taken by a good friend a couple weekends ago and I have the chance to repay the courtesy for her this weekend! Once again, it's a good thing I'm good at swapping heads because I used 3 different photos to create our family portrait. I am THRILLED with the result and my oh so super fabulous 30x40 gallery wrap canvas arrived yesterday (which I will take photos of next week). Enjoy and have a great weekend!

Sneak Peek!

This is the third session I've had with this little fella! I'm sure some of you will remember him when he was just an itty bitty baby laying on the red blanket ...

He was so cute back then and now, 7 months later, he's even cuter! Look at his big brown eyes ... (everyone say it ..."aaahhhhh")

Hope you enjoyed this sneak peek!! The next You're A STAR! Contest will be revealed on Monday!
