{Idaho Falls Newborn Photographer} Isaac

This boy was way past the prime age (5 to 10 days) to photograph newborns. He was 4 weeks old and I wasn't sure what he'd be willing to do, but Isaac gave us some great shots! He didn't yell at me once through the process and we breezed through his poses. Yay!!!

This child . . .

is amazing, busy, silly, wonderful, crazy, loud, funny, sweet, happy, and tempermental. Yes, all of them. And sometimes all of those traits are expressed within the same minute. She evokes so many emotions in me--she makes me feel blessed, exhausted, giddy, and frustrated all within that same minute.

I cannot get this girl into my studio for pictures. She is too fast and crazy and doesn't even look at me no matter how loud I shriek. A few weeks ago I was photographing some gorgeous signs for Angela, and this little imp snuck in and began her silliness. I knew if I took time to move the light in her direction, she'd be gone, so I just snapped what I could. It gives you a glimpse of her personality.
Anyone who meets her is smitten within minutes. For those of you that don't know her . . . you're missing out! We love our little tazmanian devil!

{Idaho Falls Newborn Photographer} Ivy Jane

Miss Ivy Jane is perfect--her beauty speaks for itself. Ivy's mama was convinced that her baby would scream through the entire session. I'm thinking that this baby is going to be a stubborn girl. She certainly wanted to prove her mommy wrong!

{Idaho Falls Photographer} Kasha & DJ Engagements

UPDATE: We are back home where the nights are cool and the internet is much faster. : ) We had a great time in New Mexico and even though it's a long drive, my kids did great!













My internet connection is painfully slow right now. But Kasha has been waiting so patiently for a preview I had to get through just one upload. We had so much fun shooting these engagements. It was kind of refreshing to have some subjects that can follow directions. I didn't even have to jump around or make crazy noises to get their attention!

Just a reminder: I am not shooting weddings right now. With 4 little kids and 4-6 studio sessions per week, it's just not something I can tackle. Although I do shoot engagements . . . obviously!!

{Idaho Falls Photographer} Kassi

I had the pleasure of photographing Kassi in honor of her upcoming Quinceanera. Ya, can you believe she's only 15? Her dress was gorgeous--just like her. Such a photogenic girl. Kassi, enjoy your sneak peek and have fun at your celebration!

{Idaho Falls Newborn Photographer} Ali

Meet Ali. She is most certainly one loved and adored baby girl! Ali already seems to have a little spunk--she was a week overdue, and she certainly knows how she wants to be handled. Once I figured out just exactly how she wanted her hands and feet, we did just fine--but she definitely put up a bit of a fight. I love the picture of her daddy holding her. Congrats Mary & Jake!! She's a keeper. : )

{Idaho Falls Newborn Photographer} Ainslee

Watch out, girls are taking over the world! Or at least my studio. : ) I had the chance to fit in this last minute baby girl. She was born early and had to spend a few days in the NICU. Ainslee was so sleepy sweet during her time with me. She has gorgeous skin--peachy and perfect. I am dying over this first picture--it's just what I had envisioned when I bought this little doll buggy. So sweet!






{Idaho Falls Newborn Photographer} Jersey

Jersey is a tiny little girl who made her appearance into this world a little earlier than expected. One of the things I love about photographing newborns is watching new parents. There are so many emotions that go along with having a baby. The love and adoration parents have for their babies, whether it's their first or their sixth, is always fun to see!

{Idaho Falls Newborn & Child Photographer} Paxton & Reese

Meet Paxton. He was so sleepy and sweet for his entire session. He brought along his beautiful sister, Reese. She has the most beautiful honey-colored eyes. Reese was incredibly shy and quiet throughout her time in front of the camera. And then once it was all over, she actually said something out loud! : )
