Happy Easter!

Hope everyone had a great day today celebrating with loved ones. I love this time of year. All the new life, and colors of Spring...they inspire me. My good friend (and former Elle model), Marta, and I got together last week to break in our new studio gear. It was so much fun, yet kinda scary to be in FRONT of the camera for a change. My family is just thrilled to finally have a decent picture of me. What do you think?

Here is Marta first:






And here I am:

Urban Legends...

After months of gray, dark, cold weather, the sun has finally decided to make an appearance in Warsaw! Yay! Naturally, the first thing I did was grab the camera and the nearest available models...my girls! Here are a few that we took after school today. I must be the luckiest mom in the world.

Sisters...

These two girls reminded me so much of my sister and I when we were young. They were so giggly and had such a sweet connection. (These were also taken during the Utah photog get-together that I mentioned in an earlier post...remember the one with pictures of my nephew?) I really enjoyed photographing these girls. I didn't get to meet their mom, but I have to give her some major credit here...these girls were so well-mannered and so easy to work with. We had them tramping through the snow for more than an hour, and they never once complained. Thanks, girls, for being such great models!









I think this one is my favorite from the session:






I just love this one!

Remember Mr. Rock Star?

Well, here he is again! This time we did a few quick (well, really quick) studio shots with his new baby. It's just so hard not to look cool while holding a guitar, isn't it?

School of Rock...

Don't be fooled by the "tough guy" facade here...this up-and-coming musician is also an elementary school teacher! He taught my 4-year old "I'm a little tea-cup" just last week...no joke! She's been walking around the house singing it for days. Here's a little sneak preview from our session, Mr. D! Enjoy.

My favorite models...

I have been such a blog slacker lately! Sorry! The kid's school is keeping me so busy these days. Anyhow, the sun FINALLY decided to make an appearance here in Warsaw after 3 long weeks of dark, gray and rainy skies. So, of course the first thing I did was grab the camera and run to my nearest favorite shooting location. I drug my girls along for what I told them would be a "fashion show." Imagine their disappointment to realize they were the only ones in it! Despite their fighting with each other almost the ENTIRE time, I ended up with quite a few favorites! Warning: this is going to be a BIG post!

Thanks for staying with me!

In Portland with Skye...

Hi, everyone! I just got back tonight from an amazing photography workshop weekend in Portland, Oregon with Skye Hardwick. She has an incredible sense of style and I feel like I learned so much from her. During the workshop, she brought in several child models for us to practice some techniques on. Here is just a small sampling of what I came home with. What do you think?

Tiara Boutique...

Let me preface this post by saying that I did not take the following pictures (boo-hoo)...they were taken by another Salt Lake photographer, Angie Monson, to advertise a new kid's clothing boutique in Sugarhouse. Aren't these amazing photos? Well, the shop is equally STUNNING! I left there with 2 new dresses for my youngest daughter and some baby legs for a friend. Everything in there was TDF cute! If you have a hankering for some fresh, fun, vintage style clothes for your kids, don't walk, RUN to this store! I met the owner and she is super friendly. She' offering $10 off of a $50 purchase right now. I love to see these styles on kid's that I shoot (hint, hint). Tiara Boutique is at 1952 S. 1100 East in Salt Lake City. Go check it out!

One last Senior...

Here is my last Senior for this year! I have so many great shots of this girl, it was hard to choose what to feature here. She was such a natural in front of the camera. And those eyes...gorgeous! Enjoy your sneak preview, C!

This week's red head

I've been photographing a few red heads lately and it is so much fun! Here's a little sneak preview for my good friend, Miss A, who is moving back to Finland in a few weeks. I have LOTS more of this cute girl, but I am really overwhelmed with photo editing this week, so this is all for now. I'll have the rest ready soon! Enjoy!
