Second Chances

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO ME!!!!!!
Today marks exactly one year since I bought my D300 and entered this wonderfully amazing world of photography. I had two goals for my one year mark. One, to have the D700 and two, to have a website up. Well, I bought the D700 last week, and I am working around the clock to get my website finished! It should be done by the end of this week.

For everyone wanting to see what my new baby can do, here is my first shoot with her. My D300 was named "The Beast" since my hubby called us beauty and the beast. Now it's time to name my D700. Right now I can't decide between "Belle" to go with "The Beast" or my hubby's pick of "Roxy". Any thoughts? Can you think of a better one?


I named this post "Second Chances" for this engagement shoot I just did. Life can be unfair and full of heartache but sometimes something wonderful happens and two completely amazing people are given a second chance. These two are so in love and deserve all the happiness they have. They feel like family to me now and I can't wait to shoot their wedding in three weeks.

This gorgeous girl got married yesterday. Steph and I had so much fun shooting her wedding but you'll have to wait to see those! For now, here are her bridals...

California family (2nd in one week!)

I love taking pictures of families from out of state. Makes me feel loved.

Childhood Memories

Growing up in California, one of my best friends had an older sister that I really looked up to and admired. She was so beautiful and positive and nice to everyone. You can imagine my surprise when she emailed me recently and said they would be visiting here in Utah and asked if I would take her family pictures! It was so great to see her again and she is just as beautiful as ever.
Here she is:
