Here's sneak peak from the shoot I had on Saturday.
Her grandmother got married in this beautiful lace dress. 50 years ago.
The hat is her great grandmothers. 
Aren't they so beautiful? And Madison looks STUNNING in them.
Wait until you see Madison's actual wedding dress..
Sadly you have to wait until after March 13th.
I can't wait to show you.

I have the prettiest friends.

Cassidy is one of my favorite people ever. 
I just love her so much and I'm so lucky to have her as a friend.
I snapped a few pictures of her the other day and oh. my. goodness.
She should be a model. Seriously. 
My camera loves her so much that I'm making her and her hubberz do a shoot with me next week.
Don't worry, I'll put em on here. 
Love you Cass!





Red Carpet Lashes

My sweet friend Maren asked me to take a few pictures of a few of her clients.
We really wanted to showcase the lashes because they are just SO beautiful!
It was different to me to do portraits from just the neck up but it was a fun challenge.
If you are thinking of doing eyelash extensions, Maren is the girl to go to!
A full set starts at just $55.00 (such a good deal) and fills are $50.00
And look how beautiful they are! 
I LOVE mine! They make getting ready so easy. 
Thanks to all of our cute models, it was so fun meeting all of you! 

















And meet the beautiful Maren! Isn't she a beauty?

My beautiful friend Tia is just starting up a business called Celise Artistry.
 She styles hair & does make up for engagements shoots, bridals, weddings, prom etc.
We decided to get a couple models together and do a shoot. 
 She does such a good job. These models looked so fab!
Oh how I wish she could come get me ready every morning....
My life would be so much easier.. and so much more glamorous.
Thanks again to our models!
Stay tuned for part 2 of the shoot with our 2nd model. :)

These two are perfect for each other.
They are so hilarious and I think we were all laughing the majority of the shoot. 
I went to high school with the both of them so it's so fun to see them so in love and happy together.
Oh I just love my Wyoming clients. 
I can't wait for your wedding guys! Thanks for a fun shoot.

It's been so much fun to work with Violet Hill Boutique and I look forward to working with them in the future as well. If you haven't checked out their store, you need to! Especially you girls out there getting ready to take engagement pictures. This is the perfect place to come to get the killer outfit. They just had their spring line ship in and everything is to die for! Thanks to all you cuties that models for us! It was so great to meet all of you. Cache Valley really does have the prettiest gals around. All of the clothes, purses & jewlery that these cute girls are wearing are from Violet Hill. After editing these photos, I know now that I'm officially in LOVE with that rust/orange colored jacket. I'm buying that asap.  So cute right?!

















The whole group!
The camera girl. 

 Stop by and say hello to these two! They are the owners of the boutique and they are just as sweet as they come.

the boy.

The blue eyed boy in these pictures... He's pretty amazing.
He's my manager, accountant, #1 cheerleader, guinea pig, financial planner, and many other things.
And it sure helps that he's easy on the eyes. (Don't worry.. he's my husband so I can say that.)
Well this weekend we received a new addition to our family.
The CANON 5D MARK II! Full Frame heaven. 2012 clients.. get excited!
I'm in LOVE! I shot a wedding with her yesterday but couldn't resist taking her out today for a mini shoot. 
I got some new bio pics and got some super studly ones of Ryan. 
 Thanks for being a good sport honey. I know how badly you hate your picture taken.
xoxo










it's time to catch up!

So this month I'm going to try and post a few from each of the weddings I did in December.
Here's some from Ethan and Amanda's wedding. 
Oh I just LOVED everything about this day.
It was beautiful! 
Enjoy!
