Boise Nature Photographer: Welcome spring

It has been a while since I posted last.  We are starting to see evidence of spring slowly coming and it is beautiful already!  Took the kids for a walk the other night and found a few of these things...

It was a cold day shortly before Christmas, but we still got some fun shots of this family.  Here's a couple: the first one is one of my favorites with the warm golden sun in the background.  Wish is was actually warm outside though!

Boise Child Photographer: Self Portrait #2

I decided I am going to try to take more self portraits and I posted one here last month. Here's #2. This is my self portrait as a Mom. Some days the kids and I look like this picture. Other days are happy and we have dance parties and wrestle and laugh. I would rather remember those days than the first, but there has to be bad to enjoy the good, right? Well, I am going to try to laugh more this year and this was one of those moments I just had to laugh at how upset my 1 year old was that I would not pick her up for the 1,000th time this day. Love my kids. They are my life and eat up my sanity daily but provide me with so much joy, love and kisses.

I was able to take pictures of my Sister in Law's family around Thanksgiving at a cool Train station in Ogden, UT.  I know, it is a little late!  My nephew sure tested me by having me climb up a big train after him to get a few shots (I am not one for heights!), but so glad I did because it was a cool view.  It was fun to get some pics of their cute kids and family all together.  Thanks guys!

Boise Portrait Photographer: Self Portrait

I read an article on how to do self portraits and was intrigued.  I decided that since I am always the one behind the camera, I should probably take a few pics of me in front of the camera.  So, here is one of my self portraits....

I was so happy to be able to take pictures for this family.  The Mom is my daughter's preschool teacher and the Dad is our Bishop at church and I taught their oldest daughter in one of my classes at church.  They are a really great family!

When I took these pictures, I was one of about 5 other photographers at this location.  And it is a great location!  I love the warm colors of the leaves and the fall feeling in these photos.  I was so happy I got a cute one of their little boy.  He kept me running for it but had such a sweet smile and personality I had to try to get a good closeup!
