Heather and Jay's Wedding

Heather was referred to me from her friend Natalie, whose wedding I shot last May. I had such a blast with these two from start to finish. Heather and Jay were just so much fun to work with and had no trouble in front of the camera what-so-ever. On the day of the wedding Heather had to be leaving her house at 8am to make it to the temple in time. At 7:40am she decided that she didn't like her hair and got in the shower. Wow! And needless to say she only left 15 minutes late. What a brave girl! They were married at the Salt Lake Temple and had a luncheon following at the Davis Conference Center. That evening their reception was held in a friend of the family's beautiful yard. It was amazing! Their wedding was so fantastic and I just loved being a part of it. I got to work with an amazing videographer, Matt with Happily Ever After Video, who made my job so easy! If you need a great videographer give these guys a call. Thanks Heather and Jay and I hope you had a great time in the Virgin Islands! Sorry there are so many pictures. I loved so many of them!

Elena and Barney's Wedding

Elena and Barney are both originally from Utah, but are currently living in Las Vegas. They had their wedding at the Bountiful Temple. It was such a hot, hot day! I know they were just dying from the heat. It was a very quiet day at the temple. We were the only ones on the entire temple grounds taking pictures, which is such a change from the last couple of weddings I have done at the Bountiful Temple. It was quite nice. Elena and Barney have been so much fun to work with and get to know. I am sad that their wedding is over. I love this industry because I get to meet and get to know so many great people. These two are no exception. Thanks Elena and Barney and I hope you guys had a great time in San Diego!

TAGGED!!!

I was tagged by Stacy with Three Winks Photography. It is a little blog game that has been going around to lots of blogs for whoever is following. I have to list 8 interesting, not too well known facts about myself. Then tag 4 other photographers. That will be the hard part since most everyone I know has already been tagged. Well here goes nothing:

1- I have 2 beautiful daughters. Jayde is 5 with Stick straight hair and brown eyes. Savana is 2 with curly, curly hair and blue eyes. Go figure. Also, I love being a mom and wouldn't trade it for anything!

2- I had to have c-sections with both of my children. The first one was an emergency, the second one was elected.

3- My very favorite place to go in the entire world is Disneyland.

4- I have never traveled outside of the western United States besides Mexico. I have also lived in Utah (Ogden area) my entire life.

5- I am 24 years old and most people think I look 16. (I guess that will be good when I am 50!)

6- I could eat only soft bean burritos from Taco Maker, Chocolate and Diet coke in a can for the rest of my life and be happy about it.

7- Me and my husband knew each other for only 9 short months when we got married.

8- I love fall time, halloween and the changing leaves. It is my favorite time of year. I have only come to realize this since being an adult. I also love Christmas (hate the cold and snow though) and will start listening to Christmas music and nothing else, as soon as it is played on the radio (usually November 1st).

9- If I could change anything about my body/appearance (besides the effects from having children), it would be my eyebrows. I had a bad pluck job in high school and will be paying for it for the rest of my life.

10- I am a huge neat freak (thanks dad). I can't stand mess and clutter. It gives me anxiety. However, if the closets and drawers are a mess I could care less. As long as it is behind closed doors.

Well, I am sure I could go on, but I won't. That wasn't as hard as I thought.

Design on a dime.

While my husband was out of town for 4 days, I decided my bedroom needed a major makeover. We have been married for 4 years and have never done a thing with our room. In fact we had a hand me down comforter and all that from my sister in law. We just spent the rest of our time and energy on the rest of our house. So finally I said enough is enough and took matters into my own hands. I had my friend Anne help me put it all together. She is amazing at this kind of stuff! And you will never believe how much I did this all for......$150. It looks amazing! My husband was so surprised!

Here are some before and after shots:

Cyndi and Zakk's Engagements

Cyndi and Zakk are from Idaho, but their families are from all over. So they are getting married in Salt Lake City so everyone can meet in the middle. I did their engagements a few weeks ago. These two are so cute and so in love. It was a blast to be around them. They were up for any of my crazy ideas, and I love how their pictures turned out. Sorry there are alot!
