The Toronto Family

Tiffany is a good friend of mine from my neighborhood. It also just so happens that Jesse and Bryan served a little bit of their missions together. Small world. Their kids are (obviously) adorable. They were a lot of fun to shoot... even if Madison did give me a run for my money. That girl is FAST!!! They look pretty good for it being 110 degrees, right?!? Gotta love that sweet Arizona heat! :)

Picture Overload....

Here are a few more shots from Amber and Richard's wedding. I know there are a lot but honestly, I couldn't decide. There were so many fun shots. :)

A Little Preview for Mom

Amber, my sweet little bride has a mom on a mission. I promised Amber that I would try to get a few pictures on my blog for her to show her mom. (I mean, how many ways can you describe a fluffy white wedding dress??) So... here are a few. I PROMISE there are more to come but I have been SWAMPED with my own life so it may be a little bit. So, until then, hopefully this is enough to get you by, Amber! Oh, tell Richard I'm not giving him the shaft by not being in many of the pictures, but this day really IS all about the bride!!! ;)

Meet the Carlsons

Yesterday was a blast. I would first like to introduce Jared. He's BEYOND adorable. I seriously would have taken him home with me if his parents wouldn't have noticed. He was just living his cute carefree life when his mom had some babies...Aren't they darling??
Seriously! SO darling! I love newborns. I know what you're thinking. Wow... twins....
Now you're thinking, "there's another cute picture of the twins. They look different in that one, though..."

Go ahead.... I'll wait while you count the ruffle bums. Not convinced? Count the feet. Now divide by two. Same number of bums? Yep. That's right. They're 4 of them.... Susan, Anna, Bethany, and Brielle. FOUR!!! Anna and Bethany are identical (in the picture above they are the ones with the green and pink bows.)
So, sweet little Jared went from being an only child to having FOUR little sisters. He seems to be handling it like a champ. Just like his parents. They are so organized and calm. That is why God blessed them with FOUR babies and only gives me one at a time.

Ginger's Eternal Family

A few days ago I had the wonderful opportunity to meet Ginger and her family at the Temple to take a few pictures of her family as one part was sealed together. Her son and his family decided to become an eternal family. That in itself is so wonderful. We took some group shots and then moved on to each individual family within the family. I wish I had had more time to take pictures of each kid but it was hot and they were tired. So, I snapped a few here and there but not nearly enough. They were CUTE kids!

My Favorite Clients...

Both of my kids have birthdays around now so on Saturday we headed out for pictures of the kids. I even (reluctantly) handed over the camera and Bryan took a few with me in them. The camera was in manual mode even. (I made sure everything was set correctly for him though.) I think he did a pretty good job. :) Carter was in a great picture-taking mood (rare) and Addilyn did wonderfully. It was a blast!

She's ONE!!!

I wanted to share a few pictures of my little angel who turned one on Saturday. I am beside myself that the last year is gone! I could bring myself to convert very few of these to black and white because it's a shame to waste beautiful baby blues like these ones. Happy birthday, my little baby!



I LOVE her excited smile. It totally cracks me up.
