My husband and I are friends with Kelsey and her husband Ryan. I was honored when Kelsey asked if I would take family photos of her side of the family, the Brian’s. I had met most of her family before, but it was so nice to meet the rest of her siblings. They are all just as kind and sweet and Kelsey, and they know how to have fun together! It really should be illegal for one family to get all the good looks though; aren’t they all gorgeous? We fit this session in right before all the pretty leaves fell. Some of them had to make quite the drive to meet up for these photos. I’m so glad they all took the time to make it happen, because I love how they turned out! Thanks Brian/Forsyth/Richardson family! I had a great time with you all!

Fall Lovin’ + Personal Post
I got a little behind on editing my personal work. I finally caught up and thought I would share some of my favorites from this fall. Man, this family of mine is cute!
Behunin Family + Temple Quarry Trail
It’s funny to me that meeting new people is one of my favorite parts of photography, because I’m actually an introvert and naturally pretty shy. I’m grateful that it pushes me out of my comfort zone and I get to meet wonderful people like the Behunins. Their kids are so cute! I love seeing their little personalities come out in front of my camera. They recently moved back to Utah and I’m lucky they chose me to take some new family photos for them. They came to my fall mini sessions and the weather was perfect with the most gorgeous fall colors! Welcome back to Utah Behunin Family!
In Home Lifestyle Session + At Home With Ashley
Ashley is an interior designer and has the prettiest house! I graduated in interior design and worked as a designer up until Ava was born, so I appreciate good design! She was probably tired of me asking about the sources for everything. You should follow her if you love getting pretty ideas for your home! Click here to go to her insta. Her little boy Don has the most beautiful curly hair! I was dying over it. I LOVE an in home session, so if you do too send me an email and we can get something scheduled! They are perfect now that the weather is getting a little cooler and more unpredictable. And don’t worry, your house doesn’t have to be as perfect as Ashley’s to have your family photos done there. Photos of your family are so much more meaningful if they are taken in the place where you spend so much time loving each other.

Tess Jamie + First Birthday
This was the fastest year of my life! I finally got around to editing the pictures from her cake smash. She wasn’t into it, at all. She hardly tasted the cake and just kept trying to run away haha. She smashed her chocolate chip pancakes all over herself at breakfast that morning, so I had hopes that she would really be into her cake. I have a feeling my Tess baby will always be keeping me on my toes. She is a determined little thing and I love her feisty little soul.
Anderson Family + Green Canyon
We had to reschedule this family session due to bad weather. Jordan told me they were cursed and that it’s a running joke that it happens every time they try to do family pictures. We finally broke the curse, because it was the most beautiful fall day! The weather couldn’t have been more perfect! The Anderson family is the sweetest. I met them through my brother-in-law and they are just really great people. Jayson is so lucky to be surrounded by such beautiful girls. They were all wonderful, but their littlest Blake, was just the happiest little thing through the whole session. She won my heart for sure! I had so many favorites from this one, so I just threw them all in!
Bryner Family + Tunnel Springs Park
The Bryner family was so easy going during their family session and it shows! They made family photos with 4 kids look like a breeze! Rickie and her husband Mike are so cute together! I love getting a few shots of just mom and dad at family sessions. After all, it’s their love for each other that started it all. They just radiated love and happiness! The Bryners live in my brother and sister-in-law’s neighborhood and recently moved back to Utah from Arizona. I had so much fun meeting them and getting to know their kiddos. Such great people, I’m glad they decided to move their beautiful family here!
Ashlynn & Ryan + Temple Quarry Trail Engagement Session
I could have kept Ashlynn and Ryan in front of my camera for hours! Aren’t they a gorgeous couple?! I have known Ashlynn since she was just little. She is my youngest brother’s age and we grew up in the same small town. She has always been a talented athlete, a natural for sure. She ended up being on the track team at Weber State University where she met Ryan. He is on their basketball team and is an amazing athlete as well. I think their future children have a pretty good chance of being talented and beautiful! I had the best time hanging out with them during their session. They are so cute and so in love!

Pickett Family
This family has a special place in my heart. My husband and I met Ross and Jamie while we in Ghana on an internship and now we are lifelong friends. I got to take photos of little Claire right after she was born and again a few weeks later for her newborns. I have seen her a few times since then, but she is growing so fast! She was the most perfect baby for their mini session. A natural model for sure! I mean how cute is she?
Bennett Family + Temple Quarry Trail
The Bennett Family is from little Emery County, Utah, just like me. They drove all the way up to Salt Lake City for their session and I’m so glad they did! I hadn’t seen them for a while, so it was nice to talk with them and catch up. They were so fun to hang out with, I might see if they will adopt me. Plus they are all just gorgeous! I had a great time at this mini family session. The fall colors were perfect!
