Good News, Bad News


Well, Trey and I have been forced (by the new management and their new $30 water fee) to move out of our apartment. Sad, because we LOVE, LOVE our ward. We found a place that is even closer to Trey's work (which I didn't think was even possible) and much cheaper. Plus, its much bigger and is going to be so much fun to decorate. I have had a hard time sleeping lately thinking about all the things I want to do in it - that's how excited I am. So, I have been to D.I. a couple times and today I found this pot (for $1) that I decided I wanted to base our living room off of. It is a little more turquoise than the picture shows. I will definitely be putting pics up as I embark on my decorating journey :)

What I am Grateful for Today


That crayons are washable.

That Allie can put her toys away by herself (when she wants to.)

That my crockpot makes dinner for me while I do more important things (like play with Allie, clean the apartment, and edit my photos :).)

That Photoshop makes my pictures look so much better!

That Costco came out with some new awesome photo books and I can't wait to make one.

My Latest

I haven’t posted any of the jobs I have done from the past couple months. At the end of June I did a wedding for a cute couple that were married in the Draper temple. It was the first time I shot a wedding at that temple. It was a very stormy day and it poured and was REALLY windy right up until Krystal and Ben were coming out of the temple. Needless to say I was a little stressed. We still had to deal with the wind at the temple, but were so lucky to have a break with the rain. They were so cute – totally crazy about each other. Here are some of the pictures from that wedding:

Then, in July, I did some family pictures for the same couple that hired me for their wedding a year and a half ago. It was such a hot day so we tried to make it fast. We met at Murray Park and it only took a half hour to get 300 shots. Their boys were so cute and so well-behaved! Here are a few of my favorites:
