I got to take pictures of a brand new baby last week.. only a week old!! She was so sweet, and didn't pee a single time!! Thats a new record. It took a bit to get her settled in and happy, but then she let us do our thing. You'll notice she has her binky in a few of the pictures. She didn't wanna let it go, so, we gave in. A happy baby makes for much better pictures.
A BIG shout out to Shonni, I couldn't have done it without her. She was my official "back-drop" holder. I'm sure she was cursing me the entire time, in her head of course. :)
We ventured out to Saltair last week to take senior pictures for my niece, Taelor, and her boyfriend, Trevor. After my lecture on the way about wearing your seatbelts, there was actually an accident on I-80 (about 100 yards away from where we were). We heard the screeching of brakes, and the loud boom from when the car hit the ditch. Turns out, the kid was texting. He's lucky he didn't hit someone else.
Anyway, back to the real reason I'm posting this.. PICTURES!!
I still haven't gone through all of them, but here are a few of my favorites so far.
My little sister and her husband were part of a Country Wedding a this month. It was ADORABLE. (Post coming soon, I helped with pictures.) She wanted to get family pictures done in their "country gettup" and I gladly obliged.
The day we happened to choose was windy. Wait, thats an understatement. It was REALLY windy. We decided to take a shot at it anyway and ended up getting a few great pictures. I'm now going to share them with you. After all, wouldn't it be selfish to keep them to myself?
My niece is starting Cosmetology school in a couple of weeks. She needed a headshot and I gladly jumped on the opportunity to take them. Its weird to think that I was nine when she was born, now look at her!!
These are Kapri's cousins on Cody's side. We were all together on Mother's Day.. so I snapped a few pictures. Taisha is the perfect model.. she strikes pose after pose. Brayden is always on the move, but always has a smile on his face, so it was easy to get great pictures of him. The problem was the ever-moving background. Mailboxes in one, car bumpers in the next... kept me on my toes.
My friend had a baby a couple of weeks ago and I got to take some pictures for her!! Brooklyn put up with us moving her around, and hardly put up a fight. Thanks again Suzy, and Congratulations!!
Suzy also brought along her sister in law and her two nieces, Casey and Jaden (spelling??), they were adorable. I got quite a few cute shots of each of the girls alone, but putting them together was a near impossible task.
I must admit, holding this tiny little girl made me an eensy teensy bit baby hungry. But we're talkin' like a cracker, possibly with cheese. We're not quite to the "give me a turkey leg NOW" phase.. yet.
We've been married for six years. Yep, we're "that" couple... the one that met and fell head over heals backwards for eachother and got engaged two months later. We used to make fun of "those" people.. but guess what, when you know, YOU KNOW. We have two little girls. Kapri Grey, she's three. Piper Blu, she's ten months and just starting to show us her personality!! We cannot imagine our life without them!! We have two dogs.. Copper, a little chubby one (try not to use the word "fat", I don't want him to get a complex), and a pain in the a$$ one with a retarded ear, named Spanky. Yes, they are part of our family, got a problem with it??
