Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

We just wanted to wish ALL a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Whew...coming up for air & mindless ramblings.

Just thought I would update a bit. I have so many fun sessions to post and I will get to that soon. The Holiday rush at it's peak right now and I am scrambling to keep up. I am going to take a few weeks in December and revisit why I love photography and think about how to refocus (ha,ha-literally) on what really makes me happy. There are so many ULTRA talented photographers, especially in Utah. It seems like everyday I hear about another friend who is starting a photography business, and it is VERY competitive. Which makes lots of hours photographing, lots of hours editing, lots of hours managing the business end (which I am horrible at!)

Bottom line: I love to be behind the camera, and still plan on photographing, but I need to think things to the next level or get out of the game! I have invested mucho dinero in equipment over the last year and have photograph some of my best work yet, but I am feeling like something is missing for me...not sure what next year will bring!

Colton & Kyra {married}

This is a MEGA post...my camera loved this bride! I met this couple pretty much the day of their wedding. Colton installed the hardwood floors in my home in April and remembered that I was a photographer, and things worked out so I could photograph their wedding. It is always a challenging experience to photograph someone's wedding when you have not met them before, and you are unfamiliar with the location. However these two made my job easy. Kyra is absolutely beautiful and she is ultra photogenic!! Their wedding was at a beautiful home in Mapleton, Utah. I had never been there before but after leaving I told my husband that I'd love to live in that area, it had such a nice country feeling to it.

Colton has one son, and Krya has two engergetic boys. These three boys were darling. Krya's boys walked her down the aisle. I loved the "laid back" feeling of this wedding. It was still very elegant but had a very relaxed down to earth feeling. Colton's friend came to pick them up in a helicopter! That was a first for me, I've seen lots of horse drawn carriages, fancy cars, and what not but the helicopter was SWEET! Congrats guys, I wish you the best in the future!

CARD DETAILS

So last year due to the "sluggish" economy I offered some specials. Well now the economy is in the toilet and I still want to offer cards so here is the deal:

I am offering Christmas cards this year at my cost...$1.00 each

(meaning you pay what I pay to have unique and fabulous cards)

• All cards are 5x7 in size and are press printed on BOTH sides. One side is the design of the card you choose, and the backside can be a 5x7 of your favorite image or a matching design...plain 5x7 images can be framed.
• All cards come with envelopes.
  
• All cards are press printed on beautiful pearl paper (it is amazing!)
• All cards must be images that I have taken for you.
• All card colors can be changed and custom text is available.
• The cards come in increments of 25. For example if you need 39 cards, you would have to order 50.
  
  
  
  
  
  

Leach Family

This is one of my favorite family's! I got to photograph the 3 girls last year but this time Mom & Dad came along. These girls are just plain beautiful...the chocolate skin, the silky hair, the dark eyes, and cute chubby cheeks. How could you go wrong?
