Carson turns 1

Hard to believe that all the little babies are 1 now. This little guy turned 1 on Cinco De Mayo. He is the most laid back baby I know but does not seem to like getting his picture taken! We tried and then had another photo shoot and tried again. Although he isn't giggling with excitement, I thought these pictures were just darling. Sometimes the crying pictures can bring a smile to the face too.

A bit of sunshine. . .

Amidst all the rain here we catch a few bouts of sunshine... and have lots of fun.

Fathers day coming up!

What are you doing for your Dad? Heather and Scott decided to have a movie made of their pictures for Scott's Dad. She told me he likes the older Sinatra type of music. This is what I came up with. It is about a Grandpa's love and how everything started with him. I think Scott's Dad will surely love it since he lives way back East. He adores his grandkids. Now what to do for my own Dad!? Any ideas post them my way!

Hailey

I didn't post Hailey's pictures with Mackay and Addisons, so here you go. Always a cutie.

The move

Our new house with the moving truck backed up ready to unload
The magnificent view from our back deck. Love it!

We've seen lots of new creatures around here. This slug was disgusting! The kids were so intrigued.

A farm located close to our house. Just picturesque.

We have officially moved to Washington . I have not updated the blog because I've been so busy unpacking. I will be updating it this next week with lots of new posts, so check back. If you know anyone in the Portland and Washington area that might want pictures let me know. I will probably start shooting again in July.

Mary Anne's bridals

Well I never even posted Mary Anne and Reece's engagement pictures. I got too busy and never did it. But I will because they had some really cute shots! I don't usually do weddings. This was my second wedding I've shot and although I loved being with this DARLING couple I think I will stick to families, children, seniors at this point in my life. Weddings are a lot of time and work. It really was so much fun being involved with their entire wedding day from the temple to the luncheon to the reception.
I can't even begin to share how amazing this ms. Mary Anne is. You just have to know her. She is one of the most simple, easy going girls I know. SUPER athletic, kind and fun. Her personality is wonderful. Her parents are right there at the top of the list of the most kindest people I know. Her dad was our stake president and then our home teacher while living here in NV. What a blessing he has been in our lives. Sorry, long post! Can you Nevada girls guess where these were taken at?







And crazy enough these were taken at the stake center! Can you believe it? Those lilac bushes were just by a bunch of asphalt. It worked out perfect though! Everywhere else here is pretty dead still. We were SO happy to wait last minute to take these so we could have some flowers in the picture

Carter & Mason

Look at these boys eyes! One has that yummy chocolate brown and one has the brightest blue eyes that just sparkle. You can definitely tell they are brothers though. I've enjoyed taking their pictures through the years. Mason I will get you to smile lots someday!
