Hawaii

Sorry I have been such a slacker on the blog,  and thanks for everyone’s patience on waiting for your pictures!  We had such a blast visiting grandma Moss in Hawaii, I’m glad she lives out there to finally get us out there!  My grandma is from Hawaii and while my grandpa was stationed at pearl harbor during WII he met and fell in love with her there.  Dan’s mom has had a lot of history in Hawaii especially with the PCC, it was so much fun seeing her there in her element.  Besides the speed limit and the over-priced Mountain Dew, we would love to live there.

Of course had to do a few product shots while we were there.  The headbands are from: www.etsy.com/shop/jadegal520 and of course the necklaces are from: www.miamoodesigns.bigcartel.com/

Got these cute swim suits from www.sassybabies.com

I asked Lu if she make some kites for the girls to play with on the beach and of course they turned out amazing!  You da best!

Jordyn 

These pictures are amazing. I especially love the one of your oldest daughter split jumping on the beach. I am a photographer too. I’m definitively not as good as you though.I just barely started. But I am so very jealous that your kids will be in so many pictures. My son runs away every time I pull my camera out.He is so tired of taking pictures.My daughter is better about taking pictures but even she still has to be in the picture taking mood. By the way my daughter’s name is Lyla too! I may have already commented about that a while ago. Any how…wonderful photos, really. As a new photographer I love coming here for ideas! :)

Beautiful pictures! About the clothing, I am sure you find that as your daughter gets older, it gets soooo hard finding age appropriate clothing! My daughter is 10 but wears a size 12, and it is awful trying to find decent clothes. JCrew has been our go to for dresses. I just wish more companies would make clothing for these age girls!

Hi Krystal- The yellow swimsuit is actually romper that I got the lame place as the headbands. http://www.etsy.com/shop/jadegal520
Mya’s dress is from mini boden, olivia’s is from Nordstroms and Lylas is Matilda Jane. The maxi dresses are from my FAVORITE new store http://www.nextdirect.com
The orange bikini is from jcrew. I know I have a little shopping problem:) Its a rite off though right? The camera’s are just from amazon. Swim caps are from http://www.headcovers.com/
We mainly used the Nikor 70-200 2.8. I think that is everything.
Marissa, I will totally come with you on your next vacation, if you come on my next one:)

 ( Jun 9th, 2011 8:33 pm)

Lyla is ONE!

I seriously can’t believe a year has gone by already.  Lyla has been such a joy for our family.  She seriously has been the best little baby ever, I don’t know what we would do without her.  Even though she was not the easiest to get any standing pictures of. We will still keep her:)  That’s what happens when you have an early walker.  We drove all the way to St. George again to take her pictures where we did her newborn shots.  Don’t want to her to have 3rd child syndrome with no cute pictures:) I will put all the links for these products at the bottom of the post.

It was her first time walking outside and we just couldn’t get her to hold still for one second!


Got that adorable outfit & headband that lyla was wearing with the one sign from:  Snazzy Drawers

The fabulous headbands from: La Rose Couture and the one sign from:  Kaylee studio The flags are from: starlitnestgifts

My friend Jen made these adorable crowns. If you want to order one just email her and she can custom make you one.  Her email is jowen@xmission.com

cupcake and bag toppers are from: babycakesart cookies are from: StoneHouseOven The mini flowers are from: thegildedbee

cake stand is from: standsforallseasons Lyla’s belt is from: rosyposydesigns Olivia and Mya’s shoes are from: littleposhbebe Cake is from of course: Dipidee Their outfits are from: Jcrew Easter baskets were from: tatteredroses

Hopefully I remembered everyone!

a lazy christmas

This has been one of the best Christmas breaks ever. No shoots for a week! My house is actually clean, and have been able to spend some good quality time with the kiddos. Ginger bread houses, lots and lots of treats, skiing, parties, sleepovers and naps! Hope everyone had a great Christmas as well.


we got the cutest santa ever to come to our Christmas parties.

The kids made these adorable wreaths.

We always make the kids run through wrapping paper to get to their presents.

got these fun American girl doll organizers from ebay. Changed the pink knobs out with anthropologie knobs that the kids picked out.

Dan and I stayed up until 4:00am turning this barbie doll house into an American girl doll house. It turned out so cute! You can get a similar doll house on costco.com still. Just took the middle walls out and made our own. Used scrap wallpaper. Then made it a little taller. The girls love it!

sleep overs with their cousin. (not much sleep)

more cute persnickety clothes.

 
Shari @For the Little Doll In Your Life 

First, your photographs are beautiful. Second, your Barbie house makeover is amazing! Great job! Slightly off topic – the fabrics in the window seat are great.

Hi Jessica- He just took the corner pieces out and made it taller. We also took out the middle and made those taller. We used 20×20 wallpaper samples.

I barely got my cards out this year! It has been a crazy month. I swear if I wasn’t a photographer I wouldn’t even do cards!
I wanted to do a whimsical themed shoot with my girls. (poor Dan) I might as well with all girls right!?!
And thanks to Joy making these fabulous head pieces for my girls. I know she will be taking custom orders for these.

prodigitalphotos printed these awesome sliders for us.

OH. MY. WORD! I’ve never seen anything quite like this….so amazingly beautiful! I would love to know all about your different wooden floorings you use, are they actual wood floors or are they like a gigantic mouse pad?

Mya Jane is 4!

We had a fabulous day at Kangaroo zoo for Mya’s 4th birthday party. A lot of laughing and crying at that 4 year old age.
Had to post just a quick picture of her cake from Marcee from Dipidee. She is seriously AMAZING! I just told her we were having a Tangled birthday party and this is what she came up with. Mya was in heaven!
And this fabulous dress is from chicoco I will be posting more of her fabulous outfits soon!

Her birthday invites! I designed it but had pro-digital print them with their new die cut.

And last but not least. Just shot this gorgeous dress for Dollcake!

In your dollcake picture, how do you get such good lighting in the face area? I always get over exposed or too dark when im shooting with my softboxes. :) thanks
