Seasons Photography

A Cherub and Her Baby Brother

This session focused mainly on this family's new baby with some additional portraits taken of this baby's sister.  Being the beautiful and yet busy 2-year old that this little girl is...she was a toddler on the go with no interest in any kind of photography.  Do you blame her?  I don't.  It's funny, however, that it's these special little souls that you can capture some of the most amazing images.  The newborn slept pretty much during the whole session and I could have gone on forever.  Good things must always come to an end. 

Beautiful Oregon Coast!

We just got back from a wonderful two week Oregon coast vacation!  We drove our motorhome and stayed at some of the most beautiful state parks.  We explored just about everything you can explore on the coast from the most southern town of Brookings to the most northern point in Astoria.  Here are some pictures to share of our trip.  The scenery was amazing and we saw some incredible wildlife.  I have a lot more to share but here are some to start...Click on image to enlarge.

 

 

 

 

 

Session Tomorrow...

Well I am excited to say that I am ready to start taking some sessions!  I have scheduled a newborn baby session tomorrow morning and I am looking forward to it.  I have had to put photography on the back burner for a while but I am now ready for some new projects.  I will post some images from this session soon. 

Crazy Life...

Well life certainly has been crazy and photography has been put on the back burner for some time now.  The kids are finally out of school and we have now entered into Summer Fun!  I finally picked my camera back up last week for the Wasatch Back Relay and I am hoping to get back into a little photography.  Until then...Happy Summer!

America's Got Talent

This 12 year old has talent and he is on his way to audition for America's Got Talent.  He is a Hip-Hop dancer and he is so good that he even teaches at a dance studio.  I had the opportunity to watch him dance on Park City's Mountain Morning Show and then we went right to Main Street to do our shoot.  It was 5 degrees and all I could do was to keep T dancing and moving to keep him warm!  It worked out fabulous for me and and for him.  Good luck T with your audition!  I hope you make it on. 


 

The "Most Well-Mannered" Award

This is one of the two most well-mannered boys I have ever met.  The other is his brother.  His parents have done everything right to teach them how to be wonderful  and courteous boys.  This was not just a one day "let's be nice to the photographer" scenario.  I have know him for about a year and he has nothing but respect and niceness for everyone around him.  The same goes for his sweet brother.  Thanks S family.  I sure had a lot of fun.  Thanks for getting me out there.  It was cold...I think K was colder, but it sure was fun!

 

Chinese Dancer

Red Sox Fan!

I probably say this a lot...but this was one of my favorite sessions!  I have been looking forward to this one for a while.  This guy is not only handsome and VERY witty, he is comfortable in front of the camera.  He always has been.  I have known this boy since he was 3 and it is so fun to watch him grow.  Needless to say, he is a Red Sox fan and there is something to be said about an all-American boy with his baseball and ball cap!  Thanks A family.  I had so much fun! 

Brotherly Love

    As a mother, there are moments that I need to just stop and treasure.  I am so fortunate to have been able to capture a special moment with my own children.  These are my boys and last Saturday I had to do some considerable bribing to get them to allow me to take some portraits of them.  As I looked around my house I realized that I have not been capturing the moments with my own boys.  As a lot of mothers know, it can be a difficult thing to take pictures of your own children or to even have their pictures done by a professional.  I find it much easier to photograph other children than my own. I feel fortunate to have the skills that I do to be able to set my own children up for a portrait and I feel fortunate that my boys took my bribe on Saturday!

    This is a background that I painted from a PPA (Professional Photographers of America) class that I took a couple of weeks ago.  The class was taught by Master Photographer Allison Watkins and we had a great time learning new skills.  Thanks Allison.

 

Natural Beauty

    There is nothing like beauty that comes from within.  This senior has always been beautiful inside and out.  This session was done on the family's property and it fit her quite well.  The natural beauty all around us complimented her and the kind of portraits we were after.  We did our shoot in the late afternoon to catch the natural golden light that I love so much.  You have probably noticed that in a lot of my images.  It's really one of my favorite times of the day to do a shoot.  Their property was so perfect for this because we could get the sun pretty low in the sky.  So, thank-you P family for this session and the chance to shoot on your wonderful property! I had a great time.  Thanks C.
