This has been a busy, crazy week between sick kids and everything else but I finally was able to finish M's pictures. This family was so great to work with and the kids were a dream, seriously they were so easy for their age. Thanks M for letting my take your pictures! Now I get to work on my own fall pictures.

Photoshoot! Lincoln Nebraska Family Photographer

Yes that is excitment I am feeling. I have only been in Lincoln 2 months and I had an actuall photoshoot tonight. It was so fun and reminded me that I love what I do. I should have gone to the grocery store tonight or done laundry or cleaned my kids room or a million other things that I am responsible as a wife and mother but I just couldn't wait to look at these pictures. I am so happy with what I have and really excited to share. So just two for tonight and two completely different looks both favorites from the session. Hope you like Mckenzie!

and the black and white version cause I just think it's beautiful too.

Fun at the library.

Sneak Peak Bore's

Yea I am so excited! I finally got to go out and take some pictures of our neighbors who just happen to have become some pretty good friends too. They are such a great family, Kristyn is one of those moms who I aspire to be like. It seems like everytime I talk to her I think man I have to try harder to do more, she really is a great example. And get this Thomas and I served in the same mission at the same time for about a year and never new each other, talk about a small world. They are such a beautiful family and they have really been instrumental in making our time here happy. I hope you guys like your sneak peak. I am really loving these pictures.

I have been designing some christmas cards and thought I would share one that I have been working on. Kristyn you don't have to use this one I just wanted to share an example and I thought your pictures would look great with this card.

Seriously this is why I love photography!

Halloween Festivities

Halloween is my favorite time of year. I love it and we had so much fun this year. It was the first year where Gabby really got it, costumes, trick or treating, candy, and fun. She was so excited that her enthusiasm really spilled over on me. So here are just a few pictures of our festivities. Gabby loves her costume and the great thing about it is I can use her tulle skirt for a fun photoshoot with a little girl.


Our friends loaned us their spider costume for Isaac and I have to say he makes such a cute spider. He wouldn't wear the hat and I barely managed to get a picture of him with it on but seriously cute. And despite his size he was caught up in the exictment too. We went trunk or treating in the church parking lot and there was lots of excitment to get caught up in.



After trunk or treating we came back to our place and had a spooky Halloween dinner with our friends. We had worms for brains, jack o'lantern fruit bowls, witches fingers, and mummy dogs. Looks like fun huh. This was my first themed dinner and it was a lot of work but lots of fun and the kids liked it.

This is my sister in laws cute cute family. We really miss getting to see them and Gabby just can't stop talking about her cousins. I have to admit this was a tough session and we didn't think we had gotten anything but I am really happy with the way these turned out. For those of you who don't know my sister in laws family their oldest is autistic and their baby has a very rare genitic disorder and well Hank is Hank, he's all boy. I think that Sherry is a super mom, seriously, she is amazing with the challenges she faces each day. I look up to her and admirer her and hope to be as good a mom as she is. I am really glad I got to do your family pictures before we moved. I know it was crazy but it was so worth it. Love you guys.

I'm really working hard on getting all the pictures I took the last two weeks in Utah and I am getting so close. Taylor I hope you like your sneak peak! Yeah I am done and you will get these soon. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to do your pictures.

Oh Daiana you are so going to love me! Your pictures are done and I think they turned out great. Here is another sneak peak and of course I had to show you how cute Lelia is in her costume.

Jared and Peter grew up together (next door neighbors) and Pete often tells me Jared was instumental in keeping him in line and him turning out the way he did. We lived next door to them for the summer before we left for Seattle and had a great time with them. It was fun for me to get to know some of Pete's friends and hear about his childhood. We really miss our sunday sit long, talk much's. We just don't know what to do with ourselfs on sundays anymore.

Trying to get moved into a house that is 1/3 of the size of the house you were living in is very difficult. I have really been struggling with getting "moved in" we still have boxes everywhere and I can hardly bring myself to touch them as I have no idea where they are going to go. needless to say I have been slow going with everything. I woke up yesterday at 4:30 am and couldn't sleep because of all the editing I have to do. I got this session finished which has been stressing me out. This family is Pete's cousins and there little boy is having major heart surgry in October in California so I needed to get them done before they left. Here are a couple more for you to see Mandy, these are a few of my favorites.

So I got my computer back late saturday and have finally had some time to sit down and do some work. Sorry it took so long Taylor to get your sneak peak up. Here are just a few that I have worked on and I am very happy with what I got. Hope you like your sneak peak. Thanks for letting me photography your beautiful family!

And enough of the fun, today is our last day in Utah. Tomorrow we leave for Seattle and I have so much packing to do. Uhgg!

My husband grew up with Jared and for the summer we moved in next to them. I have gotten to get to know Jared and his family and I think they are great. We have our sunday evening "sit long, talk much" with them and once we move to Seattle I will miss those gatherings. I am glad that I was able to take their pictures, and Daiana I hope that you like your sneak peak. I tried to get them up before you left for the weekend.

I have been so busy lately and I love it. I love being able to be a photographer and I love being able to share these moments with the families I photograph. This is Pete's cousin and her cute family and they were seriously easy to shoot. Especially their little girl. I have never shot a toddler who would stand there and smile until I said I was done. How cool is that seriously! Hope you guys like your sneak peak. I had so many to choose from it was hard to pick your sneak peak.

I had the opportunity to shoot the family of one of my oldest friends. We grew up together all through grade school, junior high, and high school. We reconnected and I got to meet her cute family. It's so great to see how wonderful her life is and how her family turned out. I had such a great time hanging out with them. And to top it off my daughter just adores her daughter even though there is a 4 year age difference. Such fun. Tonya I hope you like your sneak peak.
