A Blustery Farewell: Utah Family Photography

I took a group family picture a few weeks ago in honor of the fellow pictured above. He left on his LDS mission this week and his family wanted one last group photograph before his impending 2 year absence.

The weather was terribly uncooperative. . . the wind was fierce and frigid. The picture below is a good illustration.

But look how hard the grand kids are trying to smile in the next photograph.

Here's our best. . . yes the hair is wild and wind blown. . .well, that's the truth of the blustery day. But they all look great considering how cold they are, not to mention the dust blowing into their eyes :)

And these last 2 photographs are fun.

all in all not bad, it was crazy cold. good thing the people were awesome!

A 'Mustache' Valentine

We made these for Valentine's this year:

I got the idea here.
We cut  mini-mustaches out of stickyback felt and gave each of my son's friends their own mustache to enjoy.

We love a good photo-valentine around here!

December Sealing at Salt Lake City Temple: Utah Family Photography

Finally I can post these pictures! It's taken me a while to get caught up after the holidays.

This adorable family was sealed in the Salt Lake City Temple in December. I loved having the opportunity to photograph such a special occasion. This family is so fun and so easy going. It's easy to make photographs with them :)

Thanks for having me there!

AND we close with this. . . session favorite!

Something Blue: Utah Wedding Photography

Yes, I am finally getting caught up on my editing. . . here are some wedding photographs I made last November. This is my family (My husband's dad and his new wife), and this was a super cold, very windy, but fabulous day. I actually had labrynthitis while shooting. . . luckily I was able to get through the events with the help of my hubs. I had to take vertigo medicine. . . and close my eyes in the elevators, after going down the stairs, and while driving (as a passenger---don't worry).

I would not, however, recommend practicing photography with labrynthitis :) My random health issue aside, I think we came out with some pretty pictures, especially for such a blustery day.

I love this next one, he is already mystified by 'the women' in his life:

Below, Grandma gives the best hugs :)

My Favorite of the day, Below:
