...if I were this pretty!!

Mereesa did not want to get her senior pictures taken, but when her mom told her she had already paid to get them done she didn't have much of a choice! Her mom told me that Mereesa was only going to be bringing along one outfit and wasn't very excited about getting her pictures done.

I guess she must have changed her mind somewhere along the way, because she did bring along an extra outfit and seemed to have a great time posing for my camera! She did such a great job! Who doesn't like a little bit of special attention every now and then?

...now if I were this pretty, I wouldn't mind getting my own pictures taken more often! ;)

Thank you, Mereesa, and CONGRATS!!

{it's raining, it's pouring}

I was worried this session would be cut a little too short! The clouds grew darker and darker as we went along and it finally started raining on us right at the end! Thankfully it held out just long enough for us to finish Matt's senior session!

Thanks for coming out to get these done with me.... and CONGRATS, Matt!!

{baby it's cold outside}

This is one of my new favorite locations!! It's sort of scary, but super fun! I love the colorful checked towers and field... the bridge isn't bad either! :)

Hunter and his mom humored me and met me at this Ogden spot for his session. I'm sure glad they did! I will definitely be going back!

Hunter was the last session this day and was the unlucky one who got stuck with wind and FREEZING cold temperatures. The forecast called for rain and snow all day, but it was actually a really nice day UNTIL it was Hunter's turn... We quickly got through it and came out with some really great shots!

Thanks, Stephani, for letting me borrow your coat! ;) ...and Congratulations, Hunter!!

Can we say STUD!?

Oh Erik... perfect smile, comfortable in front of a camera!! What a wonderful subject to photograph! I had a great time with Erik and his parents during his session....UNTIL..... I stepped on a slug and it's goo squished through my toes!! EEEEK! What a great day to be wearing flip flops! BLEH!

We didn't let that stop us, though! Steve (aka dad) wiped my shoe clean with his t-shirt so we could finish Erik's session! Thank you for saving my life!! :D

...and CONGRATULATIONS on your graduation, Erik!!

Beautiful Emily has such a fun personality! I loved every shot of her from her session...each had such a fun look and different expression! This girl seriously has the face and attitude to be a STAR!! Just check out her posing skills!! I can't wait to see where this one is headed!

This was the last session I did before leaving for Disneyland so she had to wait a while to see her pictures! I had already checked them out before I left and was excited to get home to finish them...

I hope you had a wonderful graduation, Emily! Congratulations!

Quite the Catch!!

Congrats, Dylan!
