Christmas Cards

So I've been working on some Christmas cards and if anyone is interested in ordering some let me know! Here are the 2 different collections I have.





If you don't see anything you like, I would love to custom make exactly what you have in mind. Also, all the cards I have are customizable; colors, fonts, wording, etc can be changed.

Some are available in a double-sided card. If you like the design of one of the single-sided cards, but would like it double-sided, I would be glad to create a 2nd side for it.

Happy Holiday!

The wedding

Remeber Ashley, the beautiful bride, from a couple weeks ago? Her wedding was a couple weeks ago and I'm finally getting these pictures posted from it. It was a bit nippy out, but other than that the weather was perfect. Ashley's sister Tiff is one of my very best childhood friends and I just love all the Actons so it was fun to see her family.









I'm sure the day flew by, so hopefully I was able to capture a few of the emotions you felt that day. Congrats again Ashley!

Cousins

Last week I traveled down to Blanding for a day to do some pictures for my cousin's family. My cousin Justin and his beautiful wife Steph and their super cute kids. Such a fun a energetic family. Those of you who know my cousin Justin know he never slows down and his kids are just the same. They were so fun and came up with some fun ideas for pictures. We did the pictures down at "the field" and it was a perfect spot.

This is beautiful Jessie. Seriously, how pretty is she? She is a bubbly 13 (I think) year old with a contagious smile. My husband's favorite story about her is last summer when we were out at the Colorado cabin and the kids were all in their swim suits playing in the water at the pond and Jessie comes marching up in her swim suit and thigh high rubber boots with a bucket full of crawdads! Such an Ivins, not afraid of anything! Not a lot of girls could pull off that look, but she totally did!

This is Dillon. A fun and funny guy. My friend's mom was his 2nd grade (maybe 1st, can't remember) teacher a couple years ago and told me he was constantly making her laugh.

And Whitney. Such a cutie. Fun and playful. Love those freckles!

And little Ladd. A little wild man who, I have a feeling, never slows down. The day I took these pictures, I saw him and Steph earlier that day and noticed Ladd had a rubber band around his jeans at the ankle on both legs. Then when they showed up for pictures later, he had his jeans tucked into his socks! I couldn't decide if he was a little OCD about something or perhaps trying to start a new fad? Either way, funny!

The funny thing about this picture is that Ladd was making similar faces to this in every picture, until I asked them to make funny faces, then every picture was complete straight face.

It was lots of fun! Thanks Steph! Hope you love them!

Anderson kids

Last week I drove to Blanding to do pictures for my cousin's family, and while I was down there my cousin's sister in law also asked if I would come over and take some of her kids. So my one day trip turned out to be even more productive than I had anticipated. Meet the Andersons....




Apparently this little stinker had to be bribed to put on her dress and get her hair fixed for pictures. Nothing a few packs of pink bubble gum and promised time with her favorite uncle Justin couldn't solve.

Such fun and pretty little girls!

And I have a feeling this little guy gets plenty of love from his big sisters.

Thanks Ashley! Your kids are so dang cute and were so fun to take pictures of!

Beautiful bride

A couple weeks ago I got to take Ashley Acton's bridals. I'm not gonna lie, I was a little nervous. Bridals seem a little more important than pictures of my kids, so I really didn't want to screw them up. I think we got some really great pictures! It's hard to screw up pictures of a beautiful bride I guess, but I just wanted her to love them. Although I'm sure Heber never looks at my blog, I decided I'd wait to post them until after the wedding just in case. He can't see her in her dress before the wedding after all. They were married on Friday so I thought I'd post a few of my favorites. She looked beautiful, and down town Ogden had some great places for pictures.







How pretty is she in this one! I love it!

If anyone actually looks at my blog, leave me a comment and let me know what you think! Suggestions and advice are happily welcomed! Stay tuned for wedding pictures!

Jolynne's family

Last week I got to go take pictures of Heather's sister Jolynne and her cute family. I'm so glad we found the location we were looking for because it made for some awesome backdrops! So urban! Thanks again Jolynne! Here's a little sneak peak. Hope you love 'em!

My Camryn

My niece Camryn was up a couple weeks ago for her birthday and I got to spend the day with her. We went shopping, had her favorite lunch (panda express), and then came home and had a little photo shoot. When she was about 3 years old, and I still lived in Blanding, her and I were best friends. She hung out with me and my friends all the time. Now, we don't get to hang out near enough, so I was excited to spend her 10th birthday with her. She is such a cute girl. I love you Cam! Here are a few of the pictures we took. I was trying out a few new effects in Photoshop. Let me know what you think.
