nick.

Another friend from my old ward. This time, the son of Laurel and Dave Bruner. Nick just graduated from Provo High School. I remember when he was 12 and used to come Home Teach us with his dad. He was A LOT smaller back then.

the maughan family.

Every once in awhile I photograph a family I've never met. I'm usually pretty nervous. Will they like me? Will they think I'm just a wannabe? Will I be able to keep conversation flowing? Anyhow, these guys were great. Put my fears to rest as soon as I met them. I hope my adult kids will love each other like these kids so obviously do.

*I should mention, we did this whole thing in the rain. Wet, cold rain.

baby R & big brother K.

This is my friend Tara's sister Amy and her sweet, sweet boys. K really didn't want anything to do with me. Isn't he darling though? And that fresh, new baby...I could have died.

the salmon family.

My sweet friend Jessica Archibald married into this family. We managed to swing these pictures on New Years day at the library. They had some great connections. Not sure what took me so long to post. Aren't they gorgeous?

tanya and family.

Tanya is my good friend Tara's sister. Her little Reagan is my pal. Funny little girl! I took these pictures before Christmas...not sure what took me so long to get them posted. :(

my friends, the McCulloughs.

I know I say this a lot...but once again, some of my very favorite people. I feel like I have known Michelle and had her in my life for decades, yet I only met her 4.5 years ago. I treasure her and her friendship. And NO...the kids are not for sale! :)
