Baby Boy

My friend had a baby in June and I was lucky enough to be around soon after he was born to capture his first few hours of life. A week later we did another shoot at home...he is so precious!

The before + after photo was an idea I randomly came up with and almost didn't get- The before photo was taken less than 24 hours before he arrived!

Ben + Niki, SLC Temple

Niki + I have been friends since middle school. We lived in the same neighborhood and were basically inseparable. After middle school my family moved to Corona and we didn't see each other much- she somehow ended up in Utah just like us, and we were able to reunite after she hired us to do her engagements and her wedding. We had such a good time hanging out with both of them and capturing their special day!

Their wedding day also happened to be my birthday and Niki, although the busy bride, took time out to have everyone sing me happy birthday at their luncheon, and even got me a GIANT cupcake :) This was our first time shooting at the Salt Lake temple and although there are a lot of places you CAN'T shoot, there are a lot of neat places we found to go in, including the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. The day was great overall and I'm excited to finally post these!

Keeping Up

With the Joneses! And believe me, they were a lot to keep up with. We got a workout chasing the little boys around, but it was so fun. Park City is gorgeous right now and I love that we were able to incorporate some of the fair rides in the shoot. It was the perfect ending to a great shoot!
