The dance of the season!!

So I've watched this dance at least a dozen times. This show is way better than American Idol. If you're not watching you are missing out on best that reality TV has to offer. Join the fun please!!

Palm Springs is hot in June!!

This past weekend my girlfriends from High School and I took a road trip to Palm Springs. Why Palm Springs you may ask? Why Not!! It was hotter than H.E double wind mills!! Here are some photos. Thanks ladies for a whole lot of fun!! Next year lets go to Palm Springs in January ;)

This is Andrea who I will never forget, Julie who is fancy, Me and Danell who is the only one of us who said she would never go to a Chip & Dales show.

1st stop was Vegas to get Pedi's. A girls trip is not complete without painted toe nails.

We really did sit at the pool the entire trip!! Here is photo of the supplies necessary... sun screen, propel and the rafts in the back. If you look closely you can see an ipod and speakers (it was playing Angels & Airwaves for sure) and a couple of smutty magazines. All necessities!!


Here are some shots at the pool.

Here are a couple of shoots of the resort where we stayed. It was so super cool. It was a really big place. There were about 5 or 6 little casitas in a clump around a pool. There were 51 pools at the resort, every corner you turned there was another little pool. We had our very own pool all day. I could have wandered the resort and took pix all day. However, I lasted about 3 minutes in the 120 degree weather. So all you get is 2 photos. Be happy with what you got - I almost died taking these!!

What do you get on a trip with 4 girls? ... A really crammed shelf in the shower!! (see that little space in the right, that is where Andrea had her stuff she packed it before I had a chance to snap this shot. So really this is only 3 girls stuff! Wowers!!)

On our way home we happened to drive by a humongous spider, Danell and Julie really needed their photo taken in front of it. Whatever!! Really why I posted this shot was to point out the fancy outfit Julie wore for the 9 hour car ride home. Silk shirt you ask? Yes indeed. We teased her a bunch. She just blew us off like it was a natural thing to wear. When we stopped and got gas in Vegas Julie went up and paid to attend and he said, "you look nice, what you dressed up for?" I laughed so hard I nearly wet my britches. Julie, you truly are a Superstar!!

Thanks again ladies for the most fantastic trip!! Love you!!

A couple days in the land of Logan

I spent a couple of days this week in Logan working for Marriott. What a beautiful place. I didn't have to be at work until 2pm so I spent the morning taking pictures. Here are some of my favorite photos. I also found an antique store and bought a couple of props - a ladder & a cradle. I can't wait to use them. I am heading to Palm Springs tomorrow with some girlfriends from High School. I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight I'm so excited!!

Nelson Fam

I just love the Nelson's. Steve & Julie are great friends of mine from college. Aren't their children darling. We had a great time!! I'm in Logan this week for Marriott, I come home tonight. Then the fun starts, I leave tomorrow for Palm Springs with some friends from High School. The break will be great. I've had 2 weddings and 3 family shoots in 4 days - I'm tired!! My next shoot is Monday in St. George. I'm definitely taking Cathy the Camera with me to Palm Springs, so be sure to check back next week.

Contributor to a great NYC trip.

Isn't this a funny picture, we took this in St. George years ago. Look how short and whispy my hair looks. Stuey now has a big 'ol beard and a buzzed head. Definately a look to turn heads :) Stuart is an old friend of mine, we met in an old ward years ago. He's now in Philly going to school and is here this week visiting. We hung out last night and he reminded me that he should get some credit for that great NYC trip I mentioned in my newsletter. While I was in NYC last year he came into the city and we went to several museums and yes Stu you were a main contributor to the enjoyment of the trip of a lifetime. I apologize for not giving proper credit in my newsletter. I look forward to a fun filled trip to m.i.s.s.i.s.s.i.p.p.i next year!! I only wish you were moving to the Florida Keys or The Bahamas.

The Eyre Gals

I should have paid them to take these pictures. This shoot is the definition of why I love love doing children photography. I had the time of my life. I wonder if the Eyre's would mind if I took them out every Sunday!!

Isn't that shot of all the clothes brilliant? I told Mindy the Mom to bring lots of outfit choices, I love it when Mom's follow directions. Taking this shot was the only rotten thing about this shoot. I was standing in a big ant pile!! By the time I figured it out I had a zillion of the all over my flip flops and up my legs. I totally freaked out!! I think ants are out to get me because when I was younger my brother Taz and I would blow up ant holes with fire crackers. I know that ants will always be my arch enemy!!
