Johnny's Newborn Photos

A while back, Esther, from Kiss A Frog Photography asked if I'd like to do a trade with her -- blog design for photo shoot. I was so excited to get Johnny's pictures taken that I immediately said YES! She and her sister Courtnie were so patient with my ornery baby and my wild older kids. I was stressing out, but they were so relaxed and amazing.

Well Johnny is almost 3 months old and I'm finally getting these posted. Life is crazy. But good crazy! I can't believe how much my little man has grown!! 

I love the black and white ones they did. They take my breath away. 

And the big kids!

Thank you Esther and Cortnie!

26th Birthday | Family Pictures

On the 8th, I turned 26 years old! 30 doesn't seem very old any more!!!

For my birthday Dustin asked if I wanted to take family pictures. Well of course I did.
So off we went with the tripod to Red Rock, set the timer and said chhhheeeeese!

Out of about 100 pictures, we got one good family picture. I'm a little bummed that Johnny has his binkie in his mouth, but its better than screaming, I think.

Estefan and Allie are always so good to sit still and pose for a portrait.

Mark and Luke... not so much. I ended up doing retakes later at home.

And we're doing Johnny's three month pictures on Friday with Kiss a Frog Photography. 

So stay tuned for those!!

Wordless Wednesday {Evening at the Game Farm}

A Desert Evening

The other evening, Dustin wanted to go out and take some pictures. So we loaded up on the four wheeler and headed to the Narrows.

Epic Fail

Disclaimer: I am not a newborn photographer... nor will I ever claim to be.

Luke was having a fun awake moment this morning so I thought I'd snap some pictures.

Epic fail!

Okay, maybe it wasn't a total failure.
I did get like three or four semi-good pictures.

Four out of 100 ain't too bad, right?!
