Counting on you!

Ok, so if you scroll down to the bottom of my page you will notice I added a counter (just for fun). Now I know I visit my blog a lot but I definitely haven't looked at it 400 times so that means there are quite a few people that look at my blog and I would LOVE some feedback! So family, friends, fellow photography lovers leave comments, you don't even have to have an account! Tell me what you like, what you don't like and feel free to ask any questions! I love reading everyone's comments. So leave lots of feedback and show my blog some love :)

Happy Halloween!

Last night Clara and I went to Boo at the Zoo with our cousins, Tyler, Kallyn & Sydney. Though this wasn't Clara's first Halloween, it was her first time trick-or-treating. She doesn't understand it yet but she sure did have fun. She loved watching all the kids running around and really loved being with her cousins and she was definitely the cutest little fairy there! They had a program that was full of music and she was dancing her little heart out! I hope everyone's Halloween is just as fun! 

Toddler!

This little toddler was something else! She was simply adorable but she was busy and did not like having her picture taken. I even tried bribery with a giant red lollipop and nothing! I wont say it was a total failure because I did get some cute ones of her, and her little sister was to die for!

Trick-or-Treat

Clara's getting ready for Halloween and wanted to make sure you are too! 

Kid In A Candy Store....

Or should i say Apple Store. Yesterday Apple came out with their new operating system and we had to go to the release party at their store. It was kind of like when book 7 of Harry Potter came out but dare I say a lot nerdier. I just went for the free t-shirt. Robert loves everything about Macs and said he even had a hard time sleeping the night before because he was so excited about it. How cute is that? He had even pre-ordered the operating system and got it yesterday morning but still wanted to go to the party and be with his fellow enthusiasts. Or maybe he just went for the free t-shirt too.

Leilani

Poor little newborns, they think life is so harsh, little do they know. This is Larissa's sweet Leilani. Don't let these pictures foul you, she looks kind of chubby in these pictures but she is the tiniest little thing ever. Unfortunately she wasn't very happy though I was able to catch a few between screams. We'll take some more in a couple weeks when she gets adjusted to this cruel world. Congrats Larissa and Dayne!

Love At All Ages

I helped my friend Destiny photograph a wedding this weekend. It was a unique one though because the newly weds were grandparents! It was still fun, very small and personal wedding at a beautiful location. I really do love photographing weddings, some more than others, but there's just something special about them. I guess it goes to show it's never too late for love.

Fall Is Here

Yesterday was really warm but today I wake up and it is cold and rainy! I LOVE IT! After it stopped raining, Clara and I got all bundled up to enjoy the cold weather. I really hope it sticks around. It also gave me an opportunity for Clara to enjoy her new fall wardrobe without having to sweat from pretending it was fall :)

New York

Well it's about time I posted something new on this blog! I've been playing catch up all week that I have neglected to post! I have so many wonderful pictures from New York but not wanting to bore anyone, I have selected some of my favorites. Every time I go up there I love it more and more. Upstate New York is the most glorious places ever especially in the fall. It has such a historical and slow paced feel you can't go there without feeling relaxed. Even with all the hectic party planning and late nights shooting muffins, I still felt relaxed. My most favorite part about New York, besides my wonderful grandparent's being up there and the extensive family history we have, the best part is being a couple miles away from the glorious place where the birth place of my faith resides. How can you not come back feeling better about life when you get to visit the Sacred Grove? I have renewed desire to be better, to pray harder and to serve more. I know the church is true. Here are some fun pictures from my trip. And a note to my family, I will have ALL of these ready for you guys by the end of this week, hopefully sooner!

Bon-fire in Grandma and Grandpa's backyard eating s'mores, freezing our bums off but having a great time.

My grandpa builds the best fires, that thing could have gone all night long!
Party Time!

The reason for the celebration

After 50 years, they still act like newly weds :)

The party throwers, planners, decorators, photographers, musical talents, dj's, caterers and all part of the same family. Yes, we are for hire :)

Missing You

As most of you don't know I went to New York this past weekend. It was my first time to travel or be without Clara, at all!! It was for my grandparent's 50th wedding anniversary and I really wanted to be more helpful than what Clara would have allowed if she went. Though I am glad I was able to take a little break and get to spend time with my family, I missed her so much and from what Robert says, she missed me too. When I finally got to see her again at 1 am she gave me the biggest, happiest grin ever! I just love Clara so much!


I love her cute little curls!
