sunflower pics

My girls - the wild woman and the sweet romantic.

My mother in law got these adorable skirts for my little girls at Swiss Days. When I saw them I immediatly thought of the fields of sunflowers that are around our house. I knew I had to get my girlies looking all sweet, in the sunflowers, with the sun setting, in their little skirts.

Oh, I love when I have a vision and it becomes a reality.

mandy lynne photography

I just had to point everyone in the direction of Mandy Lynne and her amazing photography. I discovered her blog a few weeks ago and I have never been so immediately inspired by someones talent, creativity and eye for capturing beauty. I have looked through her blog and website millions of times and everytime leave feeling the desire to be a better photographer.
This morning I checked on my photography blog, and literally was taken back when I saw that Mandy herself had left me, little old me, a comment complimenting my work. It brought a tear to my eye (no joke) and I am still spinning knowing that someone as amazing as her, took the time out of her schedule to even give my work a second glance. Clearly, in addition to her talent she is also a wonderful person.

Mandy Lynne Photography

a little bit country...

Inspiration from my Sunday afternoon.

fun weekend

Daddy/Daughter tea party...are you kidding me with the cuteness. I am smiling so big just looking at this picture.

This weekend was filled with these two photo shoots and me being very happy as a photographer. Can't wait to get all the pictures edited and posted. Until then you can enjoy the sweetness of all these kiddos, and the sweetness of Kimball too :)

brian and heidi cont.

Here are some more of Brian and Heidi's beautiful bridals. It was a little sentimental for me at this location because the last time I was there was when I had my own bridals taken (eight years ago). I was so happy with how these turned out - Enjoy!!

sneak peak

Beautiful...beautiful...beautiful. More to come of this gorgeous couple.

It's possible that this could be my all time favorite picture...so pretty.

tanner family

Is this family not the cutest? I am so glad that I was able to photograph them right before I left Sacramento because they were an absolute joy. Their cute little toddler, Bronson, was one of the best little kids I have ever taken pictures of - he was so well behaved and gave me perfect little smiles.
What a fun day!

We even had time to take a few sweet newborn pictures of this little angel. Too precious!

gessell family

This is my sweet friend Natalie and her cute family. Look at these pictures - what a gorgeous family!! This was my last Sacramento photo shoot, and even saying that makes me sad, but I was so glad that I got to end on such a great note, with such a great friend and family. Thanks Natalie and I hope that you enjoy these pictures.
