schultz.

This is my sweet friend Kami. My running buddy. Isn't she pretty? Aside from my sister Laura, I don't think I've ever met anyone more photogenic. She looks airbrushed. This was their first family picture since baby Dean joined the family over a year ago. :) I think it was worth the wait!

dalton.

OK, first of all...Christy is gorgeous. Absolutely beautiful. Every time I take the Dalton's pictures, I am blown away by how great they look...the people, the pictures, all of it. This girl makes me happy. And it turns out, I can make little Addi happy. She was licking me in the car. Yup, like a cat.

dickson.

I know it's a stretch, but I'm kindof related to these cute kids and I've been wanting to take pictures of them for awhile...and they finally let me. :) Their mom is married to my sister Laura's husband's cousin. Got it? We're tight like that. :) Can you even believe the cute, round Mabel? Love.

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.
