Family pictures were hard this year because Piper is almost 2 and Brody is almost 4, they get their picture taken on a weekly basis, and know our photographer like one of their aunts. Combine that with tired babies, lots of family in time and a rash covering Piper’s body. Somehow Rachel nailed it with […]

Today is the day that my stud little brother, Austin, enters into the MTC! We are all so proud of him for all he has already overcome in his life. He is our entire family’s best example, and we can’t wait to watch him grow even more for the next two years. Watch out Rochester, NY…here […]

July is seriously the best month of the year. It starts off with all the fun Fourth of July celebrations, then goes into Birthday Week (another fave holiday) and ends with Pioneer Day. There are parades and activities all month long celebrating different towns and random holidays. So much fun family time! I just love […]

Its been awhile since I shared the personal photos from my life on this blog. With the chaos of wedding season, sometimes my personal photos slip through the cracks. These personal posts have been so important for me as my kids are growing up so fast to remember all the ages and stages. We’ve had such […]

Hi, it’s Rachel here! Kylee Ann is turning the big 24 today! Kylee is the reason why Kylee Ann Photography is a thriving business, servicing amazing brides and grooms and family clients with kindness and service. She tirelessly gives and gives of her time and talents to make other people feel good, and I wanted […]

Last weekend we ventured out to the Oregon Coast for the best Kylee Ann Sleepover yet. Along with learning, shooting and hanging, we added in exploring, traveling and adventuring. On Saturday night we arrived in Portland then headed out to Beaverton for dinner at the Rock where Jynese could watch game 7 ;). We left […]

I blinked and my babies become little people. Two curious, adventurous and slightly crazy little humans. They have me constantly laughing, cringing and occasionally even crying. Their eyes are full of wonder and innocence, but each day they learn more about this crazy world we live in. I want them to stop growing, stop asking questions […]

Because this day deserves its own blog post. Two weeks ago I found out my husband was graduating TODAY. I had a wedding scheduled in the morning and three shoots in the evening, but graduation fit perfectly in between. For five years my husband has supported my business, worked full time, been the most amazing […]

Our Easter weekend has been filled with fun traditions, family time and Christ. Saturday was the time for the silly, but necessary Easter traditions…like the egg hunt and Easter bunny. We got up and headed to the Elk Ridge Park Easter Egg hunt. We got there minutes too late, but just in time to meet […]

Luke and I have been married for 5 years this month and this is our very first VACATION together. Sure we take lots of “trips” to visit our family, but we never took a honeymoon and have never left the children. First we were poor. Then I was pregnant, nursing or too scared to leave my children. […]

One of the highlights of our trip was definitely the Napali Coast Tour with Blue Dolphin Charters. My friend, Stef, recommended we take this sunset dinner cruise…so we did. We knew it was going to be fun, but we weren’t quite ready to be blown away. Best date ever. Luke and I spent the afternoon and evening […]

I was asked to be a part of Dancing with the Stars — a local fundraiser put on by a local Relay for Life Team. Two years ago my cousin was a dancer while she was battling caner and I was the event photographer. I loved being apart of it from the comfort of behind […]
