On freedom and flagstaff, Epper Family Lifestyle

09/12/2015

The Eppers, again, because I can't get enough, and they're 3/3 on epic sessions. Ben keeps getting cuter and cuter, I can't even handle him!! Oh and some of these are shot on film, can you tell which? I was so glad we got to spend some time in Flagstaff for this session. I love that clean, wide open mountain air. It's so freeing, and that's what this whole g[...]

lifestyle: hansen family

08/31/2015

In April, my friend Brandi invited me out to her house to capture her family spending time together in one of their favorite activities--cooking! As one can imagine in a house with five kids and an exchange student, a lot of food gets eaten and a lot of food needs cooked. Each person had their own tasks and worked together to create this meal, and at the end all sat t[...]

newborn: hazel

Oh Hazel. So precious, just like her brother and sister. I got to photograph her sister Eisley as a newborn, and to be honest, I kept forgetting this was Hazel and not Eisley while editing. Love every chance I get to document this beautiful family!

My Photo Gear

08/12/2015

Canon 5D Mark II -I've had for several years, use heavily, and it's still kickin'. Recommend the Canon 6D or 5D Mark III also Canon 50mm 1.2L -I use this lens probably 85% of the time Canon 100mm 2.8L Macro -Great for close up detail shots, but works great as a medium telephoto lens for portraits too. Needs a little extra light and has extreme bokeh. Canon 35m[...]

Printing Your Photos

08/12/2015

Gallery Wall created at Minted.com Aside from ordering professional prints through your online gallery, my two favorite companies to order from are Minted and Artifact Uprising. I personally order through both of these companies, and love them both for different reasons. First, committed to the independent artist and to the integrity of their products ([...]

lifestyle family: roberts

08/04/2015

I love telling these lifestyle stories. Though we had planned to do this session when Hudson was brand new, waiting allowed us to capture these moments just before his parents had to return to work from maternity leave. It was such a sweet time to capture of one of the sweetest families. That fiery girl, Harper, so much personality and so fun to photograph. Thank you [...]

Sweet Laurel

07/27/2015

I first met Laurel at Found for Local Love in Bloom, and noted her eye for design and artistry. We talked a bit and I discovered she was an artist friend of my friend Megan and did some of the nursery art from this session (you can see it in the second pic!). Oh, and she also happens to be a BA food blogger, Sweet Laurel. Yeah, I said it. Laurel asked me to take so[...]

lifestyle family: baxter

It's been a couple months, so naturally, Lance, Siri and Svea were back in front of my lens for some updated photos. I'm pretty sure Siri is my biggest fan, which makes me a pretty big fan of her as well. We headed up north a bit to shoot at an amazing location, that doubles as a rest stop and majestic backdrop of God's handy work. Those mountains, I can't even. I got[...]

Purposed Life Art

06/15/2015

We've been fans of Purposed Life Art for years, I think Aspen was five or six months when we got her first pieces. Since then, we've indulged in more of these unique threads as she has grown, and every thing we get always becomes her favorite outfits to wear. Purposed Life Art just launched their June mini collection, and now both kids LOVE their newest designs. T[...]
