Growing up, I grew up in the pacific northwest. And my favorite place the world was Wellsville, Utah. Of all the places, right?! My late grandpa lived in the historical farm and managed edge animals there. So every summer we would spend a few weeks on the farm. We loved climbing through the hay bales […]

Brinkley’s | Scripps Pier, La Jolla | San Diego Family Beach Session |   Capen and Heather Brinkley were referred to me after they saw the family beach session we did together at Scripps Pier in La Jolla down in San Diego. The Brinkley’s have three boys, all really active in sports, so I knew […]

I can’t get enough of these photos! It was too hard to decide which pictures to post so I just selected a lot more than my usual 10 or so. I loved this shoot! Styled shoots are always so much fun. I take pictures for this brand often, but it’s rare that I do a Mebie […]

Momma Packer has her hands full with five boys (one of them being her husband). All of them very close in age, it was so much fun. The thing about family photography is that you never know what you’re gonna get. Boys and girls are so different. Families with six kids under age 7 are […]

Fall Minis in Logan Utah are the best! It’s all about family and relationships and inclusion. My favorite highlights from these sessions were ‘kissing momma’s belly’, ‘wrapped in daddy’s arms’, and ‘squeezing as tight as I can’. See if you can pick them out!! Hint: If they’re some of my favorites, they’re probably some of […]

When I moved to Cache Valley in Utah, I was a Washington girl through and through. I loved green pine trees and rain and overcast skies. I came here for school and not because of the mountains or weather. In fact I didn’t appreciate the snow or landscape for the longest time. I think I […]

Janelle is the owner of Janelle Joy Private Editing. Along with her team, she runs a business doing private editing for photographers all over the world. She is building her own empire in the editing world! I loved chatting with Janelle because even though we didn’t know each other at all, our journeys are so […]

My favorite little blondies. I love this family, and all the fun, personality and spunk they bring every time I photograph them. I have been photographing this family for years. I love that Lindsey and Chase keep it real every time. They love the meltdowns being captured as much as the smiles. We end every […]

Al + Eddie and Golden Dot Lane | Collab Brand Photoshoot When these two came up on the schedule at the same time, Kylee and I saw how GREAT they’d pair together! The colors and theme (a bright and happy fall) both aligned perfectly. The same category (baby!) made everything just fall right into place. […]

Larson Family Fall Mini Session | Cache Valley Family Photography Fun Family Pictures Clan and her adorable crew showed up for their Fall Mini Session ready to go! Their sweet girl Anahi hopped right out and showed me her beautiful twirly dress. It’s always a good sign your children will have fun if they can play […]

Fall is equally my favorite and most busy time of year. Maybe the two correlate because I get to see so many friends for family pictures, brand shoots, at sporting events, back to school drop offs and fall activities. I started my fall family session with this gorgeous family. I have been back to this spot […]

In 2013, I started blogging three […]
