The Curren Family

All of us! Seriously craziness getting everyone together, but it was fun. I really loved the location too. California is so pretty. We put the camera on a tripod and bribed a neighborhood boy to come click the shutter for us. Two words: Rapid. Fire. Such a blessing.

And, here's some of mom & dad Curren and Dan. So much easier to photograph. Less kids running around, right? :) They are seriously awesome. Dan turned 12 two weeks ago.

Studio Session Deal

For those of you looking for something fun for Valentine's or just want awesome pictures of your kids while they weather's cold, this is for you. In celebration of having my own studio space (Hooray!) I'm offering a $25 discount on studio session fees (regularly $75) for Feb & March. All ages are welcome, but studio sessions are especially great for older kids (4+), or babies that can sit up and not yet crawl. So, shoot me an email, give me call, but don't miss out!

**$100 minimum print order required on all sessions. Session is for 1-4 people, additional persons are $10 each.

Brother #2

This is the second oldest Curren boy and family. I seriously love all of Sam's family. So fun. These guys live out in CA and we usually stay with them while we're out there. Always good times. He's a firefighter and she is an amazing mom of these BOYS. I don't know how she does it. They are a handful, but how can you not love those smiles!?

Meet the Family

Over the next week or so, you get to meet Sam's side of the family! Wohooo!! We did family pictures while we were in CA for Thanksgiving last year. Due to craziness, this is the first chance I've had to edit. Patient, aren't they?

This is Sam's oldest brother and his amazing wife & kids. He runs a White Cap store and is an awesome welder, and she's the really crafty one that some of you have heard me talk about. a.m.a.z.i.n.g. I love them. So much fun.

January 6th Picture of the Day

The POD. Can I call it that? You'll know what I'm talking about, right? Anyway, took these while the kids were "helping" daddy shovel snow. Yes. They have car scrapers. It's really cute.

One More...

Couldn't resist. Have you guys seen those amazing antiqued pictures of the LDS temples? Beautiful. I want one, and Sam kept telling me I could probably take my own picture and antique it. So, I thought I'd play around. What do you think?

Michelle & Joseph

These guys got married on New Year's Eve. How fun is that?! They picked a great day for the weather too. Beautifully sunny with brilliant white snow all over the place. I loved it. They were married in the Mt. Timpanogas Temple and then had their reception at the North Hampton House. Cute husband & I decided that if we ever marry each other again, we're having our reception there. It was stunning. Thanks for an incredible event! You guys were awesome!

Melissa & Shawn

Trying to catch up on my blogging. I photographed this wedding back in November, and they've been incredibly patient waiting to see their images. So... here's a preview to hold you over until the rest are finished!

There was a huge accident on the freeway that night that made everyone late. Melissa changed into her dress super-fast and we raced outside to get some shot of her before the ceremony and before we lost all of the light.

Outlaws

Just for fun. :) We had this taken last summer when the "kids" got together and all went to Lagoon. Josh & Barbie were engaged at the time. It was so fun. Just a day to hang out and do stupid things and be silly. I loved it.

This year's project

I realize there are a lot of '365' projects floating around. New year, new chance to start something that will last all year. Well, I decided to jump on the bandwagon. I'm hoping to end up a with a kit to help me organize this project, but if not, well, I'll still have my pictures. I'll figure something out.

Anyway, the idea is to take a picture everyday of whatever. Just normal stuff that you normally wouldn't try and capture (and for me, stuff I wouldn't normally try and scrapbook). So, here's what we did yesterday for our Family Home Evening activity. Rachel loves it. And she's good, even if we don't exactly follow all the rules. :)
