Thompson Family Sneak Peek

Two words for this session: CRAZY FUN! Crazy in the scheduling part...when all family was going to be there, etc....fun as in...well, FUN! I absolutely LOVE and adore this family and after seeing the photos, I am sure you will fall in love with them too!


Oooh-la-la!



{LOVE} him!




I hope my husband will always look at me this way....








Now, wasn't that the cutest family ever! Sorry there was no LARGE family shot...it wasn't on my "fav" list...and it has to make the "fav" list to get on the site!

Thank you, Thompson family, for letting me capture a few moments of your adorable little families!

Rumsey Family Pictures


I was really nervous to shoot this session because we were doing it at their home and I had never been there...which is like walking into the dark...not sure what you're going to run into. Well, I pulled up, gorgeous house, beautiful yard, fences, horses, hay, straw, etc., etc., etc....basically, FUN!

Well, to start things off...the twinners...HATED me! They were extremely uncomfortable with me being around. Little guy eventually warmed up, but little girl wouldn't let go of her grudge!

We still had a great time!

Could you not just nibble on her scrumptious cheeks!?



Check out that {CA-UTE} Wrangler bum!



Older sis with the horse. What you don't see.....mom lying in the grass hanging on to the reigns!



I absolutely {heart} this picture.
If you don't...it's because you had to be present to appreciate it!


Aahhh...that's better!


Little girl disliked me so much that I had to stay in the background and just follow them around. We ended in the backyard by their toys. The sun was going down and the twinners found water on the table.......




Thank you, Rumsey family, for letting me visit your home and capture a few moments of your family.

Ranstrom Family Sneak Peek

I met this family a while ago through church. They moved and so I hadn't seen them for a few years. When she called and wanted a session I was SO excited! They are an absolutely adorable family. And the little boy....talked my ear off the whole time. Super fun!

NOTE: Their eyes REALLY are THAT blue!




I hadn't planned on little guy being in the shot...and then he appeared. What a priceless moment! Probably one of my favorite shots of the session.



Okay, we MUST stop here.

For all you pregnant woman out there...or soon to be...or those of us that are ELEPHANTS (me!) when we are pregnant...it might not be a good idea to look at these next few pictures because she will absolutely make you SICK at how cute she looks!





Thank you, Ranstrom family, for letting me capture a few moments of your cute little blue eyed family. I can't WAIT to meet baby girl!

Donovan & Easton Sneak Peek

I have a little boy...and I think he is as handsome as they come...but these little guys are definitely in the running. You will agree I am sure!


This picture took a LOT of work. First we had to get baby asleep, then we had to get him in the basket and STAY asleep...well worth it I'd say!



What a stud!


Mom has a necklace with the boys' names engraved on it!


I don't care what you say...that is SEXY!

Thank you for letting me capture a few moments of your sweet little boys!

Kelli Bridal Sneak Peek


I have been waiting and waiting to post this session. I took it back in the middle of May, but couldn't post a sneak peek because we didn't want anyone to get a sneak peek before the big day. Sadly, I wasn't able to shoot the big day due to scheduling conflicts, but I bet it was fabulous. And, isn't she beautiful. My daughter seen these pictures and said, "Mommy, is she a princess?" Well, today she surely is!







AMAZING!

Thank you, Kelli, for letting me capture a few bridal moments. You look absolutely stunning!

DeWitt Family Part II Sneak Peek


This is the second session I have done for the DeWitt Family, and believe or not, I had MORE fun this time than I had last time...which I thought wasn't possible! I absolutely LOVE the colors. I absolutely LOVE the boys and their adorable smiles. I absolutely LOVE her sister..."Auntie"...and her dog. Let's face it...I just LOVE this family!



Twinners!



This is the..."I can get anything I want"...look!


Mom's sister!...aka..."Auntie."



Sisters...but you would think they were best friends if you didn't know any better!


Thank you, DeWitt Family, for letting me capture (again) your adorable little family!

Sieah Sneak Peek


What do dimples and a toddler have in common?...this cute little guy! And this cute little guy happens to be two years old. So, there wasn't a whole lot of posing going on. His mom and I just followed him around the park and I snapped away.

I definitely think I captured a bit of his personality....







Whew...we made it! I wish I had just an ounce...only ONE ounce...nothing more...of his energy!

Thank you for letting me capture a few moments of those scrumptious dimples and contagious smile. Oh and thanks for the exercise! =)

Nelson/Cook Family Sneak Peek

I drove FIVE hours to capture this session...well worth it! This family was camping for a reunion and I was to meet them close to their campsite. I received a call early in the morning to tell me they had been rained out. Rained out of camping...but not rained out of a photo session. We ended up finding a little old cabin at a local park that was secluded by trees which helped shelter us from the rain.

It was fun! It was wet! It was cold! It was perfect!







I always have a hard time deciding which pictures to post in big groups like this, because I don't want to favor or leave individuals out. But, this picture was too precious not to share! Poor little guy was shivering.




Yup....by this time the kiddos had had it!



Thank you, for enduring the cold and rain to let me capture a few moments of your family. I hope you've dried out!

Kasha & Paydon Sneak Peek

I am proud to introduce one of my adorable niece and nephew. They come clear from Oklahoma, so I new once I seen those brown and blue eyes, that I needed to grab my camera quickly. They are both extremely photogenic....even the little guy LOVED getting his picture taken.

This session was extremely fun...it helps that we kind of maybe trespassed...but just a little.



Don't they both just melt your heart!


I love the wind blowing her hair.


Oh my goodness.....!




I want those boots. I think I would feel like Cinderella's ugly step sisters trying to push them on though. Do they come in big girl sizes too?


Speechless.......!



Their dad's side of the family owns a construction business...so we went and had fun with some of the old equipment!

......speechless....again! I {LOVE} small towns!

Thank you, Kasha and Paydon, for letting me capture a few moments of your sweet scrumtiousness...is that even a word....it is now!

I fell in {LOVE} with this family! They are so cute and seem like they have so much fun together. The weather for this session was perfect, the scenery at the park was perfect, and the cutest family made it even more perfect! Let's just say, I had a blast!...and I wanted to post ALL OF THEM!

Grandma and Grandpa with the grandkids.


Siblings


Siblings with their spouses!



The youngest of the group....2 1/2 weeks old!


The little guy would NOT smile for me, but as you can see, he REALLY wanted to!



Daddy's girls!


...and last but not least, Great Grandma!


Thank you, LOVE family, for letting me capture a few moments of your precious family!

Eric & Lyndsay wedding sneak peek


I had the most AMAZING opportunity to photograph this wedding. It was fun. It was romantic. It was HOT. It was perfect!

He stepped on her dressing during the sealing and tore it...let's just say he was EXTREMELY cautious after that!


The Groomsmen!


Bride with her Maid of honors!



They kept trying to sneak in kisses...so, you know me...I captured EVERY moment!


I {LOVE} this one!



Isn't she beautiful! Lucky guy.





The reception was held at the Boise Train Depot. Before it started I stole the bride and groom and we took a ride up the elevator to the top! AMAZING!



Another favorite!


The Reception:

The Guest Book



The table center pieces.

Bride lived in England for a while so the reception had a British Tea theme...elegant!




Refreshments...fruit tarts.
And yes, they tasted as good as they look. I would know, I had TWO! (No I didn't take two plates. My son didn't eat his...so I gladly helped!)


Loved this idea!
Fresh lemonade was so perfectly refreshing.

The cake! Too pretty to cut and eat if you ask me!


And this was a little favor given to each guest that attended the reception.

It was a GREAT day and I was so excited to be a part of it. Thank you, Eric and Lyndsay, for allowing me to capture your special day!
