Beautiful black and white

safe in her arms...

{St. George tmeple}

 So this is where I got married. About the time of year these pictures were taken. I'm a pretty lucky girl. This one is my favorite.  The Mormon church has a lot of things going for it, but being able to get married in a real life castle is pretty high up there on the lists. The promises we make here are pretty awesome too.  My Mom wanted a print from my own creation for Christmas. She chose the one above. I think I created some unique perspectives. I think I'm also the only one who tried to take pictures of this massive building with a 50 mm prime lens. I probably should have called one of my photog friends in St. George to see if I could borrow some equipment, but what was a girl to do. That's all I had. I'm happy to answer any questions about my faith.  and I may be willing to disclose full versions of these prints to anyone who wants them for a small price. email me and we'll talk. :)

hugs and kisses

They invented hugs to let people know you love them without saying anything.   - Bil Keane   Do they love each other? yes Do they always act like it? No. Was this a miracle? yes. Things I love about it? Her hand in his hair. That's probably my favorite thing to do. The look of happiness on her face. His arms around her.   and the light. It's a contest at iheartfaces.com!  

oh so silly

I gave birth to a boy with major loads of personality. He has many expressions. But this is one of my favorite. Laughing out loud, eyes closed. As if he can hide in it or something. He just makes my heart melt.  It's a contest over at iheartfaces.com

my cousin sadie

I was just there to observe and watch and I had a wonderful time practicing on this couple that is absolutely perfect for each other. They are both so fun! It was incredible to be with them.Don't be too harsh on my lighting techniques. the sun was terrible and there was no open shade and I wasn't their photographer so I couldn't put them where I wanted them... :) So here you go.... from mine eyes.

the book

Image
This book. It has no plot. It has no story. It has no characters. It is simply a book of words. And somehow, my daughter thinks it's the most fascinating book on the planet and has loved it her whole life. Does that mean she'll read Encyclopedias when she grows up? I hope so. I hope she reads whatever she wants. With her Grandparents. There's a contest over at iheartfaces.com

family fun

Image
 I have a great belief in families. That they can be fun, uplifting, a shelter from the world a great place for growth and trials but best of all happy... oh so happy. I love that EVERYONE in this photo exudes joy. Pure joy. "Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord, Jesus Christ." -The Family: A Proclamation to the World. ( LDS church) This family exemplifies such happiness. It's a contest over at iheartfaces.
