I'm not saying everyone needs to bring giant balloons to their photography session, but I mean....this is just perfect.  I can take no credit for the balloon idea, or the execution of the tissue tassels (that was all the mama), but I am so happy to have been asked to be a part of it.  

Friends, do you have a fabulous idea for your family session?  Let's make it happen!

I'm getting a bit behind on blogging some of the sessions I've had these past few months.  Such is summer, I suppose.

This session will always remind me that I am capable of doing some pretty humiliating things in order to get the shot.  We figured out about halfway through that the little guy would smile if I would sing "The Marvelous Toy."  So I stood on the sidewalks of downtown, belting it out, and trying to ignore the strange looks.  Also, at one point I was down on the ground trying to get just the right angle--Mama was right there with me--when someone pulled over because he thought we were having a medical emergency.  Ha ha....nope.  That's just called being a dedicated photographer.

I love the gorgeous light we had that evening, and little Greyson is about as cute as they come (remember his newborn session?).

I am loving this season.  I always have, but being a photographer has taught me to love it even more.  The light and colors of autumn are so beautiful!  

This family was just plain fun and made my job easy by being so gorgeous.  I mean, come on, what's better than redheads in the fall?  We scheduled this shoot for a weekend I would be in Bountiful.  We agreed on a location, and I knew there was a fairly good chance I'd run into a few other photographers, as it's a popular canyon, but holy moly!  If you saw a pull-back shot on any of these photos you'd see a photographer here, here, here and here.  Oh, and here and here (that's you imagining me pointing).  But we found a few great pockets of light anyway.  

It was so great meeting (and re-meeting) you, Pitt family!  Let's do it again, shall we?
