head over to my new blog and website! 

I'm looking forward to working with you!

Hargrave Family

The challenge was to make it look like Summer when there was actually snow on the ground. It was cold taking them, but I love how they turned out!

I love this family!

Jana

It's always nice to get out with your best friend and enjoy the Fall colors.

Fall Walk

I was in Rexburg a few weeks ago and we took our traditional fall walk. 

I'm usually the one who mourns Summers end far longer than necessary, but this year I have been thoroughly enjoying the coming of a new season. I love how crisp and fresh everything feels!

Winter Drive

embracing winter:

abstract chair

i love how this turned out.

i had to do it big so you can fully appreciate all the color that is in it.

"Craft" Night

This girl is my favorite

We had a craft & old movie night.

I decided my "craft" was photography, so I edited a picture of her.

Good friends are the best

:)

summer nights

climbing

last week i went climbing with some friends and i snapped a few pictures just for fun.

love how this one turned out  :)

carlie

carlie is so pretty! i can't get enough of her eyes. love this girl!

before & after

it's time to get this blog going again!

i was playing around with an old image, just for fun, and i'm pretty excited about what i came up with. i even discovered some new tricks with photoshop!

it isn't a perfect image, but i figured i'd post just for the before and after.

i recommend clicking on the image and flipping between the two. i think it's pretty cool, but i might be biased....

photoshop is my favorite  :)

three girls and a boy

can i just tell you how much i love these kids. they have so much personality!

evelyn kate - so full of life and energy! she is caring and always including others.

this is my favorite photo from the batch. i love the vibrant colors!

the one boy, jackson kelly - the sweetest boy you will ever meet with a smile that will melt your heart. he is always on the move and is already quite the little engineer. 

adalie jane - stubborn, joyful, and a girl who knows what she wants.

miss maren mckinley - she is the happiest baby i have ever met! so easy going and content with life.

the three girls (jackson would have nothing to do with more pictures. typical boy) - i love seeing siblings interact with eachother. melts my heart  <3

can't wait to see these four again!

grandpa

this is my grandpa - completely natural, not posed, just doing what he does.

he is so cute

rooster

love the color i was able to get on these!  (again, using a combination of photoshop and lightroom)

cute little family

i took some pictures of my brothers cute little family and used the opportunity to experiment with a little different editing process. it's a combination of photoshop and lightroom, and can i just say that i am in love with the results! definitely different from what i usually do, but i think it may very well become my standard.

zoey jane

super kisses!
