We’ve been trying to meet up for quite some time now so I was thrilled when the Fitch’s booked a Candyman mini session. Though the weather gave us a run for our money and caused some rescheduling, we were able to raise $950 for the Ashby family. Thank you so much to each family who participated.
The Fitch family booked this session specifically to get a family photo to include in their adoption papers. Even from our short half hour together, I could tell they are great parents and will be to another baby hopefully soon.
I’m so lucky to get to take pictures of this incredibly handsome family yet again. I love repeat clients! This time was even more special because I got to meet their miracle baby, Jane. Jane contracted bacterial meningitis just days after her birth. Months later, multiple surgeries later, just look at this beautiful baby girl and the joy she brings her family. I am daily amazed with the miracles I’ve been blessed to witness.
I’m officially photographing weddings now, woohoo! It was so fun to be a part of Laurie and Ryan’s special day and see the love between them and the merging of two families.
Please contact me for pricing if you are interested in having me photograph your wedding.
…to my own father who taught me through his actions how important it would be to choose a husband that would be a good daddy to our kids. And to my husband who makes that dream a reality with our children every single day.
Sometimes I look at this little girl and just can’t believe that we helped create her. She’s perfection to me. Lest you think that I don’t love my son as much, rest assured that he’s also perfection to me in boy form, but I’m trying to not push the camera on him lately since he doesn’t love it as much as the little lady below.
I’d love to post more pictures of things that have been going on around these parts, but I’m scared that you’ll forget about signing up for the Candyman Sessions. We’re almost full, but not quite yet, so sign up today!
That being said, here’s some more pictures of my kids, because well, they’re cute. Despite Lucy’s expression, she was having a fabulous time as is evident by all the paint on her arms, and not on the frame she was suppose to be painting.
When my son Isaac was burned badly last year, a neighborhood friend paid special attention to him. This friend would come over and check in on Isaac regularly. He’d stop by just to say “hi.” And, most notably to my children, each time he would come he had loads and loads of candy. Isaac started calling him the Candyman.
Just weeks ago, Kerry Ashby, “The Candyman,” went ATVing with two of his three sons—one son was a week from leaving for the Army, the other son was a week from leaving to serve a full time mission for the LDS church, and his third son was already gone from home serving an LDS mission. While on this trip, Kerry’s ATV rolled off of a cliff, leaving him paralyzed from his chest down. After four hours of waiting with his sons, he was life-flighted to a hospital in Colorado. He is now at the University of Utah Hospital recovering and will soon be starting physical therapy. Kerry is a husband and father of one daughter and three sons. Because he built cabinetry for a living before the accident, his times are and will be hard for them. His family is in desperate need of financial help to pay for medical bills, to fund renovation costs to make his home wheelchair accessible, and to assist with basic living expenses.

Having my own mother here over the past week has been wonderful and only makes this day more meaningful to me. I’m happy to say that my mom has become more than just someone who raised me, she is my friend. She is selfless, so talented, funny, and beautiful. She’d literally give you the shirt off her back if you needed it (and I know that from experience when I got a bloody nose on the way to Haley’s wedding!). I love her with all my heart and hope my children will look up to me the way I do to her.

She did spend a lot of time with Isaac too, I just didn’t get many pictures of it. Here she is walking to Isaac’s tree fort with both of the kids wearing capes she has made them.
