Please be patient with me.
My Dad called me this morning with bad news. My Grandma Ballou is not doing well at all and they are taking her off of her oxygen. She has been doing badly for the past two weeks so my mind has been a bit scattered because of it. If I have not emailed you back that is why, and if you are waiting on orders please be patient with me. I will get them to you asap. I am not sure what this week will be like, chances are I will be out of town for a funeral. If you are anxious to see your pictures on the blog or uploaded to my website, give me a few days. I promise I am as anxious for you to see them as you are, and I will try my best to get them done for you as soon as I can!
I have the best clients in the world so I know that I am worrying for nothing! I promise you will have all of your orders before Christmas!
Thanks in advance for understanding!
Mucho Loves!

Bad Day.
I sat on my couch this afternoon a broken woman. It seemed like no matter what I did crap just kept pilling on. Nothing could break me out of this sad and depressing slump I had fallen in . . . until Alex came home for lunch with a big basket of beautiful flowers in his arms. How could I not smile? Alex asked to to be his wife 4 years ago today. Thanks my love! You really made my day!
Now on to business news, I was lying in bed last night thinking how stupid it was that my Christmas sale only lasted until the 15th. I have decided that these sale prices will be good until the first o December, which is the same day that all orders for Christmas will need to be ordered by. Don’t forget that Christmas Cards must be ordered by the 22nd! If you are ordering your photos online the promo code is: XMAS08
To the next order of business. . . I have been a very bad blogger. I had so much fun in October blogging every day, but I just couldn’t keep it up. I don’t know how [b]ecker did it for so long!!! I do have a few thing I need to blog
-UHS Cheerleaders
-Lili’s Maternity Session
-Katie and Robbie’s Engagement Session-Take 2!
I think that I will be up to date after that. Keep checking back.
Mucho Loves!

Be Cool. Vote.
I have made it a point to not include politics in my business, but this needs to be said…
It doesn’t matter who you vote for today. The most important thing to do is vote! Don’t be stupid, let your voice be heard. And if you don’t vote today, don’t bitch about anything the government does. You had your say and you chose not to say it when you could. Be Cool. Vote.
I will be posting 2 more blog posts today so keep watching. I will be posting Maygen and the Rasmussen Family!
Happy Halloween!

Now… back to Halloween! I love this holiday, and I was really excited for this one because Paige is getting older! She actually smiled at me while I had my camera facing her which never happens! It was a pretty cool day!!! ( Just so you are prepared, this is going to be a long post!)

A busy day!!!
Today was a crazy busy day! I did 2 shoots and had a meeting with my cousin to plan her wedding. I love helping brides plan their weddings! If I wasn’t a photographer, I would love to be a wedding planner!
I didn’t get to prepare a real blog post because of my crazy schedule, so here are a few pictures of Paige that we took the other day! She is so cute!!!
Swimming in Park City
A few weeks ago we all went up to the Marriott Summit Watch in Park City for a little R&R. It was so nice to just get away for the weekend and relax! It was super hard to get good shots while swimming because of all of the steam, but Alex managed to snag some really cute ones. Here are some of the shots that Alex took.
Paigey!
My Jack is growing up too big!!! I love this shot!
