Sadie and Jason

I thought I'd post some of my favorites from Sadie and Jason's wedding.  They had a beautiful dinner the night before at The Bungalow in Pleasant Grove.  The gardens and reception area around their grounds are beautiful!  It was fun walking around the grounds and getting some really nice shots.

 I always love the shots of the bride getting ready.  She was a gorgeous bride, too!

 Love this one of her mom helping her get ready!

What a beautiful evening, right down to the doves!

Handsome Grad and perspective Missionary!!

This handsome young man is graduating this week and also is awaiting his mission call!  What a great kid!  I'm glad I shot by that tree, since it got chopped down this week :(  It was fun going out and shooting a guy for a change.  It's a little different experience shooting guys.  They seem to just want you to get the shot and be done!  Girls, on the other hand seem to want lots of different shots to choose from and want to try lots of poses.  But I love how understated this young man was.  He was very cooperative and I loved how his mom was saying random things to get a smile on his face.   Good luck on your mission, Josh!  You'll do awesome!!!

Ramzy's Preferred

My niece Ramzy asked if I could come and take some pictures of her first Preference dance.  I love any excuse to shoot my cute nieces and nephews.  

 I think she was feeling a little embarrassed and awkward with the whole family watching as they exchanged flowers.  And of course getting it all pinned on doesn't help the awkwardness of the moment!

 But I love this one of her out of focus in the background while her mom is pinning on his boutaneer.

 I love using the frame for these dance pictures.  It makes it a little more fun and a little more interactive.

 Here's her darling wrist coursage.  I love it!!

 A close up of her lashes

 I think she was feeling a little embarrassed that I was making her take a few alone while everyone looked on.  But she looked so cute and I wanted to get a few of just her.

 So cute, Ramz!!

The very best part was this!!!  She is the VANS girl and has so many pairs and this dance was no exception!  She even found some fancy onces that matched her dress!  So cute!

Another Eliza Session

I love that Eliza gives me so many opportunities to shoot and try out new things.  I love the whole feel of this shoot and I have been having fun trying new things in Lightroom with these shots.  She was loving her lashes and wanted some shots of them.  I love the way this turned out.

 The other girls wanted one with the three of them and their long lashes.  This was fun playing around in post production and adding some fun actions.

 I just used small flash for these and I love the light.  She looks so pretty and so soft!

 I love this in Black and White!  More pretty, soft, light.

 I liked the Edgy look, yet soft light.

 Another lash shot!  Movie star-esque!

Day 12--Family Night

Although I didn't really do anything too technical here, I brought along my camera just in case.  It's been great having my camera around more for all the family comings and goings.  

I liked the action here.

I like the colors

The reflection on the floor looks cool here.

I like focusing down the lane here and still having my son in the frame watching the ball rolling down.

The joy from a "spare"!

Day 11

I saw the moon tonight and just had to try and shoot it in a way that would do the whole scene justice.  My longest lens only goes to 200mm, so I worried that the moon would be big enough in the shot.  I liked the cold but clear blue sky.
