gorgeous couple + happy baby + lame jokes = FUN

Aside from being one of the most gorgeous super-model couples ever, these guys were seriously the funniest couple to watch. I think about 1/2 of the shots I took didn't turn out because I was laughing sooooo hard. It was fun and I can't even say enough about their lil cutie guy. Even just looking at him, he would smile and giggle. AAHHHHH He was uber-duper ADORABLE. I want him all for myself. Thank you guys for a fun time and for being good sports and even laughing at my AWESOME jokes. It was a BLAST!!! You have a beautiful family.

$1.00 hats

We found these fun hats at the Target $1 section. So we did a quick shoot on Sunday. It feels like I haven't posted pictures of my kids in a long time. They are CA-RAZY !!! They are little posers and like to act silly. I didn't even try to get a serious one. I like it this way... that's how they really are. CRAZY MONKEYS. I'm in LOVE with the just-be-yourself-in-the-moment pictures. This is something I'm trying to lean towards more and be better at doing. I want to freeze a moment and the people in it just as they are and being WHO they are. I still find myself trying to pose people and set up this perfect shot, but I'm drawn to THIS.
I turned music on in the truck and blasted it...then I said "DANCE".
It's something else, I've wanted to try with a family.
It would be hilarious to catch people in their dance moves.

someone's getting some BONUS points

These guys got stuck right in the middle of my hard drive crashing and them needing to get their wedding announcements sent out asap. It was a nightmare. I prayed to get their pics off of my comp and it was unsuccessful and then I took my memory card in to see if I could get their pics recovered from it and that was unsuccessful. Finally, I found an awesome UVU computer tech (thanks to Jeanne -the best Utah Grandma ever) and he was able to restore most of their pictures back.
They are getting married this December and I'm so excited for them.

He thought looooong and hard about what to write on this. I was cracking up when I saw this.
He might be getting some heat from the guys about this one.
I think that is true love and devotion right there. Words say it all.
He gets 25+ points. Photobucket

These guys are such a beautiful couple.
They were hilarious, too.
I have to admit, when I first met him, I was a bit intimidated.
But after watching them together,
I realized that he like a big teddy bear and totally shy.
She is just totally beautiful and seemed to just make him the happiest guy in the world.
It was cute.
I LOVE watching couples together and seeing how they mesh together.

It was all about him...

I love this family. They always make me feel like a rock star. They were THE first family that ever let me practice on them over two years ago. I posted about it here. I was crackin up when I went back to that post because I literally dragged them through a 3 hour session (note: waaaay too long) and all during a BYU game. It must've been torture for dad, a former BYU player. Luckily he wasn't angry and totally won The Father of the Year Award. And then once again, they even let me into their home to get some shots of their newborn cutie. I posted about it here.
These guy are some serious hotties. All of their children (and future children) are just gorgeous. They have their hands full with these two future BYU football players. Watch out Utah!!!
After the shoot, they got on the plane and headed to Hawaii. I told them next time, I'll just go with them and take their pictures there. Imagine that... :)
Thanks again. You guys rock!!!
XOXO

It was ALL about this guy. He was such a HAM. :)Photobucket

I secretly wish I had a picture like this with my man. HAHAHA.
(too bad he doesn't cooperate with the camera.)
