First Love

It's FEBRUARY!
My favorite month. That means it's time for my daily love posts! Woohoo.

My first love...

My family.

My favorite people.

I love them so much. They mean everything to me.
I don't know how I got so lucky.


My friend Annie took these in July! We went to a beautiful cherry orchard in Utah. The one above I have printed on canvas for my giant family collage.

I had a dream that a photographer I admire (and used to work with at Nuskin- when he wasn't such an amazing photographer) was at a party. We started to chat and then the party was really at my house. I mentioned that I was a photographer, and then he proceeded to point at every single one of my BLANK walls and say, "Oh really, I'd love to see some of your work."

This dream was a wake up call for me.

I am working really hard to get my work on my walls.
I bought 12 gallery wrapped canvases of my family. ($$$$....Yes, four dollar signs. Not three.)
I have some new photographs and frames waiting to be hung....just for Valentine's Day.


Love me some sun flare. My favorite detail...how little Simone looks.





(I think Lincoln and I kissed in most of our images! Sorry Annie! I didn't realize we were doing that. Thank you for trading sessions with us again, I always look forward to it!)

Lovely! I have the same issue--I want a gallery! I have a whole spot for it. But I don't only want my stuff, just my favorites. I know it will cost $$$$, so I always put it off. I'm glad you're doing it. GREAT pictures and I love that she looks so little too. Cute little profile.
