50 mph Vegas winds + 2 fantastic girls that didn’t mind the chaos =  pretty dramatic pictures.

I have to quit it…. these newborn babies are just tooooo adorable, and it makes me want to take one home!:)  Chloe was 2 weeks old which is past my limit of 10 days old for shooting newborns… but she was an absolute angel.  She was so perfect and sleepy… just the way I like it.  Her mom makes the adorable headbands and will be selling them soon. (All the more reason to have a baby girl)  Thanks “Angel Chloe.”

This little chica is so DANG beautiful.  I asked if I could take all of her hair and put it on my head, but for some reason she wouldn’t let me…. It was pretty chilly, and she was definitely  trooper.  Her brother’s kept us moving and laughing along the way too.  What a doll!  Thanks S and family for the fun!!

I love photographing seniors, especially when they are as sweet as this one.  Chloe is not only beyond beautiful, but she is the greatest older sister.  I just hope that my little Taylor can be like Chloe and treat her brothers and sister with such love.  – It was a beautiful morning, with a slight coolness in the air and a little overcast.  It couldn’t have been more perfect.  Good luck Chloe, I know you will have a fabulous future!

O.K.  prepare yourselves, because this is the longest post I have ever done on this blog.  This wedding and this couple was so beautiful, I really just couldn’t help myself.   The day was May 1st, May day, and it was such a beautiful day.  Brittney and Micah are 100% perfect for each other in every way and you can tell the love they have for each other in the way they look at each other.  I was honored to be a part of their special day.  The reception was held in a place that is special to me, the Kim’s Ranch.  I grew up going to Easter Egg Hunts, hayrides and parties and the Kim’s Ranch and it was ingenious for Brittney to come up with the idea to hold her reception there.  The decor, the food, the colors, the weather, everything was perfect.  Thank you Brittney and Micah!!  Enjoy your “monster sized” sneak peak!

marylin: I must say that it takes a lot for me to make comments on a photographers website, only because it seems like so many sites look the same these days!! Well this is one of my all time favorite wedding shoots I have seen!! You are so talented and your work is original and classic!! What a beautiful bride and groom and you made their day!!! :)

admin: You are too kind Marilyn. Thank you!

Chad Christensen is running for United States Senate and he has got one cute family!  I had a fabulous time playing in the dirt and watching these adorable rowdy boys show me how “boy” they really are.   You can read more about Chad here.

Another amazingly beautiful baby.  She just melted me, which considering I already have 4 of my own and am a little baby hungry…. is not good. She was already 15 days old so not as sleepy as a 6 day old, but she was a trooper and let me bug her plenty!:)  Thanks S. Family.

Amy: Jennie, I love your style! These are so soft and yummy.

This senior chick seriously rocks. I’ve known her since she was 8 and watched her grow into a fabulous, amazing, talented girl.  She is an unbelievable dancer and pretty much an all-around perfect girl.  We really had so much fun, and I am lucky these are in focus because I was laughing for the majority of the shoot.  And yes, that is a real fish she is eating for one of her dance numbers…. I have a feeling I will be posting in a year that she is Justin Bieber’s back-up dancer {no joke} … Thanks B and L, love you guys!

brittney: Jen these are so amazing!!! smoken hot!! did you end up buying ocf gear?

These kiddos happen to have the world’s greatest aunt and by watching how much they adore her, I think they agree.  This awesome and beautiful auntie also happens to be a dear friend since we were little.  We had so much fun playing in the grass and sun, but the best part was the “duck attack,”  which I am grateful we survived.  Here is a little sneak peak…
