Hunt Family

We actually had to sneak into this place to get these pictures. I'm so sad that photographers are no longer allowed, but SO glad we were able to get these shots of this super adorable family. It's so much fun to see Lowee growing up after taking her baby pictures last summer. What a beautiful family!

New Family Pics

Fall Family Session

Well, as "FALL" as we get in Arizona! My next door neighbor wanted a new family picture for her advertising and Christmas cards. I had LOTS of places to choose from right in Anthem (where we live). The waterfalls are gorgeous and it's always nice to be a block away from a golf course. This is just the first of my family sessions lined up for the fall. Happy Fall Y'all!

Newborn Session

I had the great opportunity of shooting for a friend in my ward last week. Her baby is a total miracle baby....she was in the NICU for a week after she was born with bleeding on her brain and had a full recovery. It's always a blessing to be so close to these little angels on earth. She is so sweet and so beautiful and I only pray for the best with the family. You can see the rest of them in my online gallery here.

Temples

Since I got such a great response on the last post from Temple Square, I thought I might pull out my favorite temple pictures I have taken. I have to say that I am very excited to post these too, because it is one of my FAVORITE subjects! A few people had asked a couple questions about them, so I thought I'd try to answer them to the best of my ability.

There are temples all over the world and they are only open on the inside to members that have been interviewed and found worthy to enter. Temples are places on earth where God can reside and the church takes the things they do inside very seriously, so they want to make sure the people entering take them seriously as well. Most temples have some sort of visitor's center that non-members can visit. The one in Salt Lake City is great and really big since it is the main church headquarters. There is also a really nice one near my home in Mesa, Arizona. You can visit the temple grounds of any temple and take pictures all over the buildings. They are gorgeous. Some will even allow you to enter the main lobby to have a peak and there are always people there to answer questions if you have them. The angel Moroni is atop a spire on every temple because he is the angel that is going to usher in the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. (Of course, if anyone has any more questions......missionaries are MORE than happy to answer them)

If you have a temple anywhere near you, member or not, it is always a great place to go and get some FABULOUS architechtural shots! It is also my favorite place to take wedding portraits, since the background is always gorgeous and because I got married in the Las Vegas temple. I hope you enjoy these ones!

Salt Lake City

Salt Lake City is one of my favorite places to visit because it is where Temple Square resides. Not only is it full of beautiful green landscapes and gorgeous places like Park City, it also has some of the most beautiful temples on the earth. I just came back from a trip and had to share some of my favorite pictures from Temple Square.
