One of my favorite Models!

First I need to say DON'T FORGET that my virtual Matilda Jane Trunk Show ENDS TOMORROW AT NOON (mountain time)!! Check out the details one post down!! Cutest clothes ever and you can buy from several different collections too, check it out!

Yesterday, I had the pleasure to mentor Julie from Oklahoma, (Thanks again, I had a blast with you!!) We lucked out with beautiful weather and headed down town. We worked with my favorite little model ever. Not only is she beautiful, she is such a natural and just so polite and sweet. I have worked with her many times before and hope to for years to come! I had to post a ton, couldn't choose just a few, so I hope you enjoy!!

I kinda like her (:

Just thought I share a few of my sweetie! Hope you're all having a great Christmas Season!!

Holy cow it's been a month!

Oops.......I can't believe it 's been almost a month since I've posted! Sorry, life has been well kind of crazy. I've really enjoyed just taking some time off towards the end of November. Also I've been busy working hard on something I hope to announce in a few weeks so make sure and check back for info soon! I promised I would share some more of previous posts. So here's a few to hold you over for a few more weeks. Make sure to check back. Hope you are all having a great Holiday Season so far......I just adore this time of year!

Out of town!

Just a reminder I will be gone until Oct. 16th and will answer all calls and emails when I get back! Also a heads up that I am almost booked for Nov. I only have room for 1 or maybe 2 more sessions, please email me and let me know if you are interested! I also will not be booking any sessions Dec. 12th-Jan. 6th. Just want to spend the holidays stress free this year. Which means I only have very few dates available for 2009. Now off to my vacation!

Oh and just one more picture to hold you over while I'm gone! Love the light in this picture....perfect!

Follow Your Passion The workshop {Photography workshops}

It's going to be impossible for me to recap just how much fun I had this last Saturday at my first workshop! Smiling from ear to ear.....that's me!! What a great group of talented photographers that made the trip! So much fun and so sweet too. I am just going to let the pictures speak for themselves!! I will also add some links soon of the other photographers who attended so you can also see their amazing pictures. THANK YOU to everyone who came, it was......well......pretty dang amazing!!

My favorite picture of the night!

We had the greatest group of models EVER! They were so much fun and GORGEOUS!! Thanks Ladies!!

Which results in this, another favorite of mine!

Thanks again Ladies for making the trip to learn from me!! I can't wait to watch you all grow as artists...so from the bottom of my heart.........thank you very much......MWAH!!

Whew, how much fun was that!!

Wow is all I can say about the day I had yesterday! I hosted my first workshop and it was so much fun! I had a great group of photographers from all over the states, two from California, two from Canada, one from North Carolina, one from Utah and Oh geez I've done it again, one of the M states in the middle (sorry Jen, Michigan right?) Anyways, it was such a great group of very talented photographers! The weather was not my best friend at times, we had rain and dark clouds (that made for some great photographs too) but gratefully the sun did find it 's way out often enough. I also had the BEST most AMAZING group of models. It was great to have enough models to work one on one with the photographers. The models were sooo much fun and seriously....GORGEOUS!! Thanks again you gorgeous girls!

I will have so many images from the workshop but I'm just trying to regain my sanity a bit today and enjoy my family so I will be back with many more soon!

But for now just one to hold ya over.....Oh and I got a new lens on Friday....it's love for sure!

Enjoy!

Ready for more! (Utah wedding photographer}

So I stayed up late tonight editing this amazing session, I just couldn't pull myself away! I am in LOVE with so many of these shots.....they are some of my all time favorites! What an awesome couple they are too, so nice, so much fun, and sooo in love! We had such a great night.....well except for when the gate arm thingy to the parking garage that closed and slammed down on my head. I'll go into details below. Thanks again you guys for an awesome night, I really had so much fun! Hope you don't mind me sharing a ton!

Love this flare!

see the heart in the shadow!

Love the back of her dress!

Yep she's gorgeous!

Love their cute laughs, love their fingers intertwined, love that we got another trax shot!
Just love it!

Loved her gold shoes!

Ok so the story goes like this. We're getting ready to leave the parking garage, we see this awesome car parking and ask the guy driving if we can borrow his car to take some shots. He says yes and we're stoked. So we follow him out walking out of the parking garage right behind his car. All of a sudden SLAM, I get hit on the head by the arm of the gate that closes after each car leaves the garage. Yep, I won the stupidity award for the night, oh man it hurt so bad too!! But at least we got the shots with the great car!

I think this is my favorite shot of the night. I'm just not sure I have ever captured light like this. It was so soft and had such an amazing glow to it.
And just look at that gaze between them....wow to be young and in love......

WOW Right?

and another WOW!! Such a beautiful girl!

Thanks Again Vanessa and John!!
