Lifestyle Newborn Session | Connor

I'm so happy Amber and Zach asked me to take their new baby boy's pictures. They moved back to Utah a few months ago and are living in my old neighborhood in Elk Ridge. It was so much fun to see them and catch up! Connor was so amazingly good throughout the whole session. We even fit him into a stocking. It was a tight fit, but it worked! I took some pictures of him in his crib and his older brother Daxton wanted to climb in. Those sibling pics never work out for me and Daxton was so sweet and good to his little bro! 

Congratulations on being a family of 4! 

Payson Temple, UT | Marta & Jacob Formals

I was so excited to see Marta and Jacob again! They're always to fun to be around! We started up Payson canyon first but my usual spot was extremely icey and I forgot to tell Marta to bring boots so all she had were her heels. I was already slipping around in my boots, so we went up a little bit further and found this awesome spot! It had a lot more snow and wasn't icy. Yay. 

Jacob's reaction to seeing Marta was so cute! We had a little mishap though and her veil flew off, so we did a second "first look". His reaction was good the second time too. Way to go Jacob! After taking a few pics in the canyon, we went to the Payson temple. It was so much colder and windier there. Their hands and noses were turning red. I don't know who was colder. They were both shaking like leaves. But their pics still turned out so cute! They didn't let the cold bother them! Hopefully, their wedding day will have snow on the ground and be less cold!

Jordan Pines, Big Cottonwood Canyon | Rieke Family

Ok, the Rieke family was so dang fun to work with. They made everything so easy and Brian made everything hilarious. We all froze our butts off, but it made it even funnier. All the girls had cute high heeled boots on. I don't even know how they walked in this deep snow. Sorry girls! I told them the pictures would be worth it. By the end, they were still smiling but all had red noses and fingers. Brrr! It was sure gorgeous, but let's schedule a shoot in the summer next time ;) Am I right?
