Ryan Family – Utah Family Photography

The Ryan family ended out my day with a bang at Wheeler Farm. They were a lot of fun and I don’t think the mom stopped laughing the whole time we were together!
Dunford Family – Utah Family Portraits

The Dunfords started out my Saturday with a ray of sunshine [early in the morning] and a fantastic mood. This family loves each other dearly and are not shy in showing it.
Barth Family – Utah Portrait Photography

The Barth family is young, but super cute. Their baby boy has huge eyes and a sweetie boy attitude. Enjoy your teaser.
Qureshi Family – Utah Family Portrait Photography

The Qureshi Family spans across the United States, like many families these days they are only able to get together once or twice a year. They were in need for updated family portraits and were recommended to us from a previous portrait client. Yeah for referrals! When I arrived they were eating, playing games and [...]
Utah Family Portrait Photography – Brother & Sister

Scott and his sister’s parents didn’t have any new updated photo’s of the two of them for years, Scott took it upon himself to help his parents out with this problem. Scott and his sister were a ton of fun to shoot with and their personalities really came out in the photo’s. What a great [...]

Fall Outdoor Family Portraits Utah

It’s that time of year again to gather the troops and celebrate their beautiful growing little selves. The kids are back in school, the weather is turning cooler.

Gonzales Family :: Utah Family Portrait Photography

The Gonzales Family is back again! I just love the red head. The whole family is very affectionate with each other and you can tell they have a great family bond. Because of weather we shot this at one of the brothers house near the Draper Temple. The dark wood architecture was to hard to [...]
SLC, UT Family Portrait Photography :: The Cannings

The Cannings weren’t happy with their school pictures and so didn’t buy any. Which means they wouldn’t have new portraits on their wall of their kids. This was unacceptable of course which is why we were downtown Salt Lake City to make sure they had new great images for the next year. Kids grow so [...]
Family Generation Photography :: The Butlers

I don’t get to do these often enough. Documenting families, their generations, and being able to see/show a long linage of family is one of the best things anyone can do for their family. Anne is one of those adventurous women who likes to make things like this happen for her family. She has a [...]
Salt Lake City Children Portraits :: Tamagawa Boys

The Tamagawa boys were due for updated images. One was ready to rock, the other wasn’t. This happens a lot at family pictures. One child doesn’t want to do it and can be a problem for the whole shoot. That’s ok I say. Kids are able to be grumpy, we can usually change this around [...]
Mother and Child Portrait Studies

Celebrate Mother’s Day With Art I’ve always felt a little ambivalent towards Mother’s Day. It, like so many holidays, feels like so much like a Hallmark national day, and the flower industry’s excuse to jack up their prices. I don’t want to sound so pessimistic but I always feel a little forced into these things [...]

Salt Lake City Library :: Jensen Family Portraits

Rebecca’s brother is being deployed and they needed some great family photography done before he leaves. I love these type of family shoots. You can see how much they love and care for their departing soldier. Best of luck in the field. The Jensen family were great as well. Their kids are super cute, and [...]
Valentines Children Portrait :: Super Cutie Redhead

We had a last minute mini-session for Valentines Day. We didn’t expect a flood of responses, but we did end up with this super cute little redhead. I just love shooting her, she’s always in a great mood, and not without her big smile. Happy little lovers day.
Salt Lake Children Photography :: Faces of Bryce & Faith

Jenn saw images from my faces of program and wanted them of her kids! So far I have photographed younger kids in this program, but there is no reason why the older kids can’t get in on the action. Both her kids were ready to have some fun and helped out with the goofy faces. [...]
Money Saving Tool : Slight of the Invisible Hand

I stumbled upon the coolest new browser app that I thought you might be interested in. It’s a money saving browser tool that sits nicely atop your brower (firefox, google chrome, and the old IE) and when you’re shopping online, it lets you know when the item you’re checking out can be found for a [...]
Incredible Baptism Photography :: West Jordan, UT

Mitchel is ready to be baptized and needed some photo’s to be published in their local ward announcement. He’s a great guy and a lot of fun. He was so ready to smile, even with some of his front teeth missing. He’ll be taking the plunge next month! They grow up so fast …

Utah Family Portrait Photography :: First Family of 2010 :: The Richardsons ::

The Richardsons have been long standing supporters of our Studio. This will be the second time I’ve shot their entire family. I have also shot their daughters newborn, and donated my time at the Field of Dreams for them. Their son with his family was in from China, home for the holidays and they wanted [...]
