Keller Girls | Logan Utah Childrens Photographer

12:00 PM Posted by Unknown Cache Valley Childrens Photographer, Childrens Photographer, Family Photos, Family Sessions, Little Girl Session, Logan Utah Childrens Photographer, Sister Pictures No comments

Had so much fun with these adorable girls! They are so well mannered. Just bundles of joy! Their family is from Burley, Idaho, and was up for a visit in Cache Valley. While down seeing grandma and grandpa they decided that it would be nice to get some pictures. It was a last minute session, but we were so happy to fit them in!

In the beginning they were all a little shy, but after a few minutes of warming up they were all smiles and such fun. Once we got them out of their shell they did wonderfully. Each of them is just adorable inside and out.

I love that they were all dressed so nicely. Little girls in dresses, you just can’t beat that. We incorporated the little white rocking chair that Stacey’s dad made, and I’m glad we did. The little girls loved it, and they each looked so cute! The white background and flooring really made them stand out. We love getting individual pictures, but getting all three of them together was really fun! Sisters are great, and you can definitely tell that this bunch loves each other sooooo much!

To finish off the shoot we brought in mom and dad, and snagged a couple photos of the whole family. This family really is so sweet, and we loved getting to work with them. Thanks again Keller Family!

Parkinson Couple | Northern Utah Family Photographer

5:45 AM Posted by Unknown Couples, Family Photographer, Family Sessions, Formals, Logan Utah Family Photographer, Northern Utah Family Photographer, Outdoors, Studio No comments

We had a fantastic time getting to photograph this great couple. They were super easy to work with, so that is always nice on our part. The two of them were looking for a couple of nice headshots, and then some casual couple photos. And I think that what we captured turned out great.

Starting out, we took some formal headshots of them individually as well as together in the studio. They were looking so sharp, and their outfits complimented each other quite nicely. I love the way that all of their formal shots turned out.

After finishing the formal shots it was nice to relax a little and get into a more casual mode. This couple looks so sharp, even when in the casual setting! The use of the rustic wall complimented the color choice very well. When we ventured out into the foliage we were able to capture a few additional photos that offered more variety to the shoot.

We really enjoyed getting to work with the Parkinsons. They haven’t had pictures done with their family since around 1993, so this session was much needed. It was the perfect time to venture out and get some of just them. We will definitely have to get the whole family out here later! Special thanks to them for being such a great couple to work with, we hope to see you soon.

The Tuesday Ten - Arrgg, Pirate Parrrtyyy!

8:54 PM Posted by Stacey Birthday Session, Personal Post, Pirate Party, The Tuesday Ten No comments

Today's Tuesday Ten is dedicated to a little lady who turns 7 tomorrow! Kira just happens to be our little gem and we are so excited for her, she is growing up oh so fast and has the cutest personality. Last Saturday we were in charge of her birthday party. We take turns planning with her mom. This year she wanted a Pirate Party. I {Stacey} actually had SOOOO much fun planning this party. I think I have a new calling in life, so if you need help with a party planner - Let me know! :)

1. Invitations

I searched high and low until I found an invitation that was kinda girly but still authentic enough for our party. I got this one on Etsy from PartiesbytheBundle. She was amazing to work with and got back to me super fast. Plus, I just love the layout. I printed them locally through Square One with Kraft envelopes and they turned out perfect.

2. The Bounce House

Kira has wanted a Pirate Ship Bounce House since she decided she wanted a Pirate Party. I'm not sure if she saw the bounce house somewhere or what but I found one locally and booked it as soon as I could. It was HUGE but seriously awesome. We got this from Bounce4Kids for a reasonable price for an all day rental, plus they delivered and picked up so bonus. My mom text me the night before when they were setting up since I was at a concert and said "Now I know why you asked to use my yard". It was really big, tall and perfection for our party.

Birthday girl was not sure of the slide with the water, she clinged onto dad... See below. She really did like it when it was just the slide :)

3. Photo Booth

I ordered some Pirate Birthday Party Props on Etsy from CrazyFoxPaper and they were a hit! $6 bucks well spent, that's for sure! We always love our photo booth and tend to use it a lot for birthday parties. Seriously one of the things the kids LOVE! Check out all the photos on our facebook page here.

4. Treasure Hunt

We set up a semi easy treasure hunt around the yard and split the kids into 6 groups so they had a chance to actually find the clues. I think it was a hit! Plus they all loved their grab bags / treasure loot!

5. Walk the Plank

I had Andy set up a Plank and my sister brought her kiddie pool. It was a hit! The kids loved walking across it and actually tried to get wet by the end of the party!

6. Tattoo Parlor

I wasn't sure how this would go over but it was BOMB. My amazing sister in law was our tattoo artist and she dressed up and played the part. Kira's mom brought some girly / pony tattoos, I had some pirate ones and Maria even drew some tattoos. The kids came back for more than one!

7. Food

I had fun coming up with some food to go with the Pirate Theme! We had Fish N Chips, Pirates Gold, Polly's Crackers, Poison, and Peg Legs! I also ordered cup cakes from Macey's last minute because I wasn't sure if we'd have enough cake. Last year we ran out but this year there was plenty!

8. Parade

One of the best things about the timing of Kira's party was the parade. River Heights was having their annual Apples Day Parade at 4 pm so we ended the festivities and all headed to the parade. The kids FILLED their bags full of candy. A short parade but seriously the best loot ever.

9. Water SLIDE!

During the party we left the Bounce House as a slide only. I didn't want people to have to bring suits, towels, etc. Once the parade was over and most people had left we decided to turn the water on. It was a completely different slide and seriously a blast!

10. Presents, Cake and more!

What birthday is complete without presents? Kira was spoiled. Our families and friends treat us and her oh so well. She got so many things on her list! A talking Parrot, legos, art supplies, finger nail polish, clothes, jammies, and more. Plus Kira's Birthday Cake and Mud pie were super yummy!

A huge shout out to everyone who helped and attended our Pirate Parrtttyyyy! We arrggg so glad you came. :)

And Happy Birthday Miss Kira! Dad and I sure love you!

A special thanks to this handsome guy for helping me with the party! He sure puts up with me when I get wild ideas sometimes!
