Charlie

This little sweetie is only about 11 weeks old but I can already tell that she loves surprises.  In fact she likes them so much that she decided to show up 10 weeks early.  Surprise!  After a long stay at the hospital she finally got to come home a few weeks ago and for being so old she modeled marvelously.  Because she's my newest little niece she gets to have all large photos (I know, I know I give too much.)  As you can tell by the last photo she is already developing quite a personality.  I have a feeling we'll get on famously as we have so much in common.  (I also hate it when Jared & Brooke kiss me.)

 

 

Family Vacation

So with all the house/moving stuff going on this summer we decided it was best to hang around town instead of taking a vacation.  (lame)  Being an adult is not very much fun most of the time.  Anyway I dragged Greg and the kids up to Virginia City the Saturday before Doug started school and I have to say they had a pretty great time.  I highly recommend  the trolley tour but other than that I guess you just have to pick and choose what you like.  It's been a few years since I've been up there and I was surprised at how much they had to see and do.  Maybe things have changed or maybe my parents were just really cheap because all I remember doing as kid was taking the "walking tour" and eating ice cream.  (burn)

eating bubble gum ice cream from "Red's" That's really all she wanted to do and later told us that it was her favorite part of the day.  Frankly I don;t know if she remembers anything else we did.

camel races (those are every year in September. This is just a sign)

these guys are volunteers with the historical society that dress up and wander around on weekends to take pictures with tourists.

It Had to be Done

I don't do a lot with photoshop, but every now and again I run across a picture that's just begging for a makeover.  Hope you enjoy these as much as I do.

Summer Wedding

Well as always with weddings there is some sort of love story and as always with me I have no idea what that love story is.  But I suppose like other "wedding photographers" I owe you some sort of  story so, what I can tell you is that these 2 love birds got married and live in Idaho.  I took these back in July but I just decided to go ahead and post a few of them.  It was the middle of July and super hot out so I guess it;s a good thing these liked pictures so much.  Also can I say cutest flower girl ever...except of course for Natalie.  Or your daughter if you have one and she has ever been a flower girl....
