Fall Family Mini Sessions!

Valentine's Day is coming!

I'm in love with winter.  Especially in my neighborhood.  It's been like living in a dream.  Karson and I decided to run around in the snow which turned into being stuck in thigh-high drifts in my backyard.  Love her.

It's also that time of year for Valentine photos!  Let me expand, as usual I'm offering boudoir sessions, but I will also be doing regular shoots for wives, moms, girlfriends, or for anyone who wants a great photo.  I will also be offering my makeup services as well as referrals for other great artists when I'm unavailable.  

Boudoir or Portrait + Makeup starting at $250

This has been quite the week.  I've run myself into the ground with stress from our furnace breaking(I'm literally voiceless).  We've spent each day at different family members homes showering, which has been an adventure with 2 kiddos.   Luckily I've had this great session to edit to distract me from being so sick.  I've gotten to know Cheri of Charmingly Cute Jewelry over the last couple years.  Her and her family are gorgeous on the inside and out.  I told her I want the secret to having such great kids, but I think it's because her and her husband are so sweet together.  They are definitely an awesome family to be around.  Thanks again sweet Holden Family!

Their having a baby! And a few maternity musthaves.

Some of our very best friends are having a baby!  So what do we do when someone is having a baby?  Wander up to the mountains and take some gorgeous pictures of the parents-to-be.  I'm so excited to meet this baby in a few short months and I can't wait to watch you two be amazing parents.  It's the most incredible thing you can do in your life. 

I'm so excited for them and their new addition and it got me thinking about where I was exactly a year ago.  My pregnancy with Cohen lined up pretty close with their baby.  Anywho, I just wanted to throw out a few must-haves for mama.  I'm sure I've talked about this before on one of our blogs, but so many people I know are prego right now.

1. Invest in comfortable clothing!  My first pregnancy with Ava I fought buying maternity clothes for so long and then when I bought my first pair of maternity jeans I was in Heaven.  Treat yourself to at least a couple pairs because lets face it, you will be wearing them post pregnancy as well.  Zulily has some great options for a great price here.  If you register at Target, they give you a coupon for maternity items in your goody bag.  So make sure you start your registry early in your pregnancy. 

2. Belly Support.  Get yourself some sort of belly back support especially if you are on your feet for long periods of time.  This is the one I bought from Babies'R'Us.  Also grab some good insoles for your shoes.

3. Prenatal Massage.  I did a post on my favorite spot here featuring inSPArations float spa in Layton, Utah.  They also have a flotation pod that makes you weightless which is incredible when you feel densely pregnant. 

4.  Get yourself a great pillow.  Sleeping is a struggle so get a body pillow to rest that belly on.  

5. Bra Extenders.... yep.  I don't think we need much explanation here.

That is just a few of my musthaves.  Checkout Zulily, Target, Gordmans, and H&M for great pricing on maternity wear.  You won't regret it!

Now for this lovely lady.

 

Oh the places we go!

I went to school with the gorgeous gal and only now am I getting to know her. Her, her husband, and daughter are the straight out of a magazine. And the are so sweet too. It's not often people take me to places I haven't been, well they did.   Don't ask me what this place is, because all I can tell you is it was a dream. Thanks {w} family! Happy Weekend my friends.
