Salt Lake City Portrait Photographer: Mother and Son

I'm so lucky to have had another friend come from out of town to visit family and at the same time want to get some portraits taken. I'm lucky because I not only get to do what I love, I also get to hang out with old friends!  Although it was a bit windy during their session they just snuggled up and giggled along with me. It's so great seeing old friends with their cute kids.

Utah Winter: Snowshoeing

I was born and raised in good ol’ Utah. I have to admit that I took its beautiful outdoor winter adventures for granted. I never liked the cold therefore I never liked the winter season. I liked to look at the snow but I didn’t like to be out in the snow. We moved to Florida then after that we moved to sunny San Diego. I  actually started to miss seeing snow on the ground. All that changed when we moved to Korea where it was COLD and it snowed. But it was way too cold for me. The snow seemed to instantly turn into ice and no one believed in putting salt on the sidewalks. Now we are back in Utah and it's perfect! The snow is a lovely white powder making the Wasatch Mountains even more majestic.  A weekend or two ago my sister invited me out to go snowshoeing with my niece and herself. I have never been and it was SO much fun! It was also a great work out. :) I kept stopping in awe at just how beautiful my home really is. The Mr. already has his own set of snowshoes and has been trying to get me try this winter sport. Now of course I want my own pair so we can have more snow adventures!

Salt Lake City Portrait Photographer: Danny and Katie again!

The world's cutest couple asked me to take some portraits while they were in town. (They are big city folk now.) They brought along the newest addition to their family, Joanie, their Great Dane. I'll tell you guys it's true I'm more of a cat person. I do like dogs don't get me wrong; I'm just not a fan of their licking. When I met Joanie I fell head over heals! She's the best dog ever!! She doesn't lick first of all and she's SO sweet! We had a great time laughing and trying to get Joanie to do what we asked. I've known Danny since High School and I'm so happy to see these guys whenever they are in town. You can see a photo I took years ago when they were still dating ^_^ HERE.

Hope you guys are all having a fantastic day!

Enjoy!
