Logan Utah Family Photographer | Nielsen Family


A quick family session the day after Christmas. We met at the Smith's house and took these photos in their basement which actually worked out perfectly. It was cold and these little kiddos rocked it inside. These ladies are all gorgeous and I was blessed to know them in high school and in the dance world. Thanks beautiful ladies! 

Happy New Year!

Redefining Perfect, Session 1 | Utah Passion Portrait Photographer


This little lady is one tough cookie. And her mom is a strong women whom I look up to dearly. Kambri was born with Mictrotia-Atresia which is a deformity in the ear. I had never heard of it until I met these two. I met her mom through Relay for Life about 6 or 7 years ago. She's one of the very best ladies I know. 

This little lady is going in for surgery next week so mom wanted to capture some pictures of her before her surgery. She'll be having 5 total surgeries this year so stay tuned to watch her story. BUT you have to check out their full story on their blog, Redefining Perfect. Her mom tells the story in full details. Sign up to follow their blog and get updates as she progresses through the year. I'm so excited for these two and my heart is with Kambri as she goes in for surgery. She'll be great, she's a tough one!

Hill Family | Logan Utah Photographer


It was a cold winter morning the day after Christmas but we managed to get up, these guys dolled up and we headed out to their house in Wellsville to capture some family pictures while they were all in town for the Holidays. The two girls live in different states so mom wanted to capture this moment while they were all together! Such a great looking group of people and some amazing ones as well. Mom is one of my very best friends and she is the sweetest person. They are all lucky to have her!

Thanks again Michelle and family!

The Tuesday Ten | Recap of 2015

Recap of 2015!

Wow, I can't believe 2015 is over. It came and went so quickly and all the while we were CRAZY busy! It was a full year of excitement for us both personally and business wise. Here's our recap of the year and all the highlights we want to remember. 

1. We got married! We were married Sept 12, 2015 in Fish Haven, ID. It was a beautiful day, gorgeous venue and pretty much the coolest wedding/reception ever. :) Check out photos on our blog post: http://photographybystaceymoss.blogspot.com/2015/09/the-tuesday-ten-our-wedding.html

2. We changed our Business name! We are no longer Photography by Stacey Moss... instead a new logo, new look and new name! Welcome to Stacey Hansen Photography. We were SUPER hesitant to change our business name. We've heard many stories of photographers changing their names and then losing business because people couldn't find them or this or that. BUT we've had a RECORD year even with the change! So, I think it was a good call, plus I love our logo! (Thanks to Pace Made for the design!)
3. Newborns! We did a record number of Newborns this year! Newborns are secretly our favorite :) SHH don't tell! JK, but we really do love seeing babies just days old and all their cuteness. I often get asked how I have the patience for newborns because they really do take a lot of time. Honestly, I don't know, but I love it. If you know me personally you know my patience is often low lol so how I manage to work with so many newborns and love every minute of it is a mystery.. but it's one of my favorite sessions to do. That's why when I said I was taking 2 weeks off for the holidays I ended up only having 4 days off because I fit 3 newborns in last minute! I'm a sucker for those chubby cheeks. **Watch for our Newborn Contest for 2015 babies and see who wins a FREE 1 Year Cake Smash!**

4. Weddings! We also hit a record number of weddings this year! It amazes me that I could be busier than last year and yet I totally was, nearly all year long. We met so many wonderful couples for their engagements, bridals/formals and wedding day this year. Each one holds a special place in our hearts and we often become great friends with our brides. It's fun to watch as their love and family grows after their wedding. And this year we joined in the wedding stress so I knew just how my brides were feeling while planning their weddings. Thanks again to all of our brides and grooms in 2015 for making this a year to remember. 


5. Photo Booth! The year the Time Capsule Photo Booth came to life! Oh and we have loved this! We did 5 Christmas Parties, a fundraiser, 2 shows, a Preschool graduation, and about a dozen weddings all in our first 7 months. I'd say that's a win-win! We can't wait to see what happens next year and we have already hired 2 employees to help us run the photo booth since we are always busy! The photo booth was the best idea Andy had, among some amazing others for this business!  Watch for us at the Bridal Fair in January at the Logan Riverwoods Conference Center!


6. Our Tuesday Ten blog posts sort of fell off the radar as I got busier planning our wedding and then this fall being swamped. It is amazing how much time it takes to spend writing blog posts! So I'm curious... did you like the Tuesday Ten blog posts (if I do them lol)? I am thinking of giving discounts, free sessions, or paying for blog posts if people are actually reading them. What do you think? 

7. Dance / Sports pictures were added to our portraiture options this year. I have danced since I was 3 years old until about 4 years ago so I was thrilled with Kylie at Rhythm Connection asked me to take their Dance pictures! 


8. Themed Minis. This was the first year for our Themed Mini Package and we killed it. 5 sessions a year for $100 was ridiculous pricing but we loved it! Seeing kids for Valentines, Easter, Summer, Halloween and Christmas was a blast!  Next year is a bit different, check it out here. 

9. Office Help / Blogging - We also hired two part time assistants to help with office work and blogging this year. It's been awesome not having to worry about blogging this month as those two have done nearly all of my blogging. Working a full time job, running a photography business, running a photo booth business, trying to be a good wife and mom is not an easy job. I've learned this year I need to step way back! Which is what I said last year but then that didn't happen. So, I'm working toward more help, spreading my work load, and actually spending more time at home this year (and not at home in my studio :) ).  Meet my Office Assistants... Shayna and Stephanie. They rock because they are 1. My sisters but 2. Because they support my business so much and send me clients all the time and 3. Because they learn fast and get the job done! Thanks ladies.

10. My Hubby - Last of all, I have to remember who helped me start this journey down the Photography industry and that's this handsome man. He's been my #1 supporter since before I actually bought a camera. He helps me with my studio (and his system rocks), he's built my Show Booth, the photo booth, he second shoots for me when I need him, and he takes up a lot of my slack at home while I'm working. Kira is a pretty darn good supporter too. She loves to help with kids are around and even though I have to tell her to go play sometimes she really is a big help. She doesn't love being in the studio when it's her turn but she often obliges. She is getting so big, is a gorgeous 6 year old and sure has a cute personality. I'm so privileged to call these two my family. I can't think of anyone I'd rather have in my home and in my heart than this duo.

Cache Valley Family Photographer | Evans Family


It was a super cold day on December 26, 2015. We headed inside for their family pictures last minute to keep from freezing. The University Inn and Conference Center worked out great and was an easy location for everyone to get too. This family was a blast to work with and I'm so happy everything worked out. We laughed a little and captured some great memories. 

Thanks again Ally and Dain for scheduling!
